Project description:Transcriptome comparison of Bacillus subtilis Natto under sliding permissive (0.7% agar) and restrictive (1.5% agar or spo0A mutant strain) conditions. B subtilis Natto wild type cells were grown on the top of LB solid medium with 1.5% and 0.7% agar concentration (samples 1-4). B subtilis Natto wild type and spo0A derivative were grown on top of LB solid medium with 0.7% agar concentration (Sample 5-7). In first experiment, 4 biological replicates were used, while in the second experiment 3 biological replicates included. Dye swaps are included in both experiments.

Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of Bacillus subtilis wild-type strain and hfq mutant in stationary phase of growth using to tiling array gene expression analysis. RNA-binding protein Hfq is a key component of the adaptive responses of many proteobacterial species. In these organisms, the importance of Hfq largely stems from its participation to regulatory mechanisms involving small non-coding RNAs. In contrast, the function of Hfq in Gram-positive bacteria has remained elusive. 97 transcription units (representing 134 genes) were found significantly different between the wild-type and the ?hfqBs strains in the stationary cultures performed in rich LB medium. This data set contains 4 samples. Expression profiles of Bacillus subtilis prototype strain (BSB1, a tryptophan-prototrophic derivative 168 strain) and a ?hfq mutant were examined 5 h after the onset of stationary phase in LB medium. Two biological replicates were analyzed.
Project description:Investigation of the kinetics of whole genome gene expression level changes in Bacillus subtilis NDmed strain during formation of submerged biofilm and pellicle. The Bacillus subtilis NDmed strain analyzed in this study is able to form thick and highly structured submerged biofilms as described in Bridier et al., (2011) The Spatial Architecture of Bacillus subtilis Biofilms Deciphered Using a Surface-Associated Model and In Situ Imaging. PLoS ONE 6(1):e16177.
Project description:Bacillus subtilis has different response systems to cope with external and internal stressors. In this study, we investigated the effect of phosphosugar stress caused by accumulation of phosphosugars in B. subtilis. To do so, manA, the encoding gene of mannose-6-phosphate isomerase, was deleted in B. subtilis KM0 to construct strain KM642. Next, strains KM0 and KM642 were cultured in LB with 1% mannose and the cell pellets were isolated after 3.5 h of incubation at 37 °C for transcriptome analysis by RNA-Seq. Differential gene expression analysis was performed based on the RNA-Seq data generated by paired end sequencing (2 x 75nt read length) of Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA-cDNA libraries on Illumina MiSeq system from control strain and manA deletion mutant.
Project description:Study the effect of single amino acid point mutations in CcpA at the transcriptome level. Cells were grown in LB with or without 1% glucose and harvested at an OD600 of 0.3 (early exponential phase). Bacillus subtilis strain ccpA::spec carrying pHT304 (empty plasmid), pWH_ccpA_M17R, pWH_ccpA_T62H, or pWH_ccpA_R304W were grown in LB with or without 1% glucose. The control in the microarray study was the strain Bacillus subtilis ccpA::spec carrying pWH_ccpA-wt. All Bacillus subtilis cultures were harvested in the early exponential growth phase at an OD600 of 0.3 from 100 ml culture. Two independent cultures of each strain per growth condition (+/- glucose) and a technical replicate (dye-swap) were used. Please note that '[A}' and '{B}' channels (in the raw data *slide.txt files) correspond to Cy3 (Ch1) and Cy5 (Ch2) in each sample record.
Project description:Identification of the specific WalR (YycF) binding regions on the B. subtilis chromosome during exponential and phosphate starvation growth phases. The data serves to extend the WalRK regulon in Bacillus subtilis and its role in cell wall metabolism, as well as implying a role in several other cellular processes.
Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of Bacillus subtilis hfq mutant in exponential phase of growth. Wild-type strain and hfq mutant cells in exponentially growth phase were subjected to tiling array gene expression analysis. RNA-binding protein Hfq is a key component of the adaptive responses of many proteobacterial species. In these organisms, the importance of Hfq largely stems from its participation to regulatory mechanisms involving small non-coding RNAs. In contrast, the function of Hfq in Gram-positive bacteria has remained elusive. Hfq does not appear to influence B.subtilis RNA patterns during the exponential phase to any significant extent, at least in cells grown in rich medium. This data set contains 4 samples. Expression profiles of Bacillus subtilis prototype strain (BSB1, a tryptophan-prototrophic derivative 168 strain) and a ?hfq mutant were examined at OD ~0.5 in LB medium. Two biological replicates were analyzed.

Project description:Transcriptional response of Bacillus subtilis KS002 to targocil Strain KS002 (Bacillus subtilis PY79 M-NM-^TtagGHBs::cat, amyE::Phyperspank tarGHSa spc) is a targocil sensitive B. subtilis strain, with TarGH from Staphylococcus aureus as the only WTA exporter, IPTG dependent (Schirner, Stone and Walker, ACS Chem Bio 2011). Strain KS002 was treated with or without targocil for 30 min. Each experiment was conducted three times using three independent total RNA preparations (biological triplicates). For each paried comparison, one sample was labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 and the other was with Alexa Fluor 647. For each comparison, one replicate was performed with dyeswap with the same RNA.
