Project description:This project is a proteomic comparison of Microbacterium sp. A9 exposed to 10 µM nitrate uranyl versus control condition without uranyl. Three sampling time points (30 min, 4h and 24h)are analyzed.
Project description:Microbacterium sediminis YLB-01, a marine microbacterium tolerant to pressure and low temperature, was subjected to high pressure (accompanied by low temperature) and proteomic analysis was carried out to explore the mechanism of its adaptation to the high-pressure environment of the deep sea.
Project description:Genomic response of C. elegans after infection with Microbacterium nematophilum.<br><br>The interaction between the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and a Gram-positive bacterial pathogen, Microbacterium nematophilum, provides a model for an innate immune response in nematodes. This pathogen adheres to the rectal and post-anal cuticle of the worm, causing slowed growth, constipation, and a defensive swelling response of rectal hypodermal cells. To explore the genomic responses that the worm activates after pathogenic attack we used microarray analysis of transcriptional changes induced after 6 hr infection, comparing virulent with avirulent infection.
