Project description:We measured the mRNA abundance in E.coli using RNAseq to calculate mRNA lifetimes. The data is used in support of a larger paper on the proteome and transcriptome of E.coli.

Project description:The aim of this study was to determine the fate of ribosomes and r-proteins. In this respect, SILAC (Stable Isotope Labeled Amino acids in cell Culture) based experimental approach was used. E.coli cells were grown in MOPS medium supplemented with “heavy” labeled arginine (Arg10) and lysine (Lys8). At the mid-log phase, the culture was further supplemented with a 20-fold molar excess of “light” unlabeled arginine (Arg0) and lysine (Lys0), divided into 8 aliquots, and grown for 14 days. Cell samples were collected at day one (24h), day two (48h), and subsequently in 48h intervals over the following 12 days. The quantities of r-proteins in the proteome were determined using SILAC based LC-MS/MS and normalized to the corresponding values of day one.
Project description:Escherichia coli release Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) which carry diverse molecular cargo. Pathogenic E.coli EVs contain virulence factors which assist during infection in the host in different mechanisms.The RNA cargo of E.coli EVs has not been assessed in their effect in the host. We used microarray data to asses and compare the global response of bladder cells to EV-RNA from pathogenic E.coli (Uropathogenic UPEC 536) and non-pathogenic E. coli (probiotic Nissle 1917)
Project description:To determine the total mRNA polyadenylated in E.coli, we transexpressed mammalian nuclear poly(a) binding protein in E.coli through plasmid and chromosomal integration. RNA Seq analysis revealed general upregulation of around 600 genes commonly in between chrosomal MG PABP and plasmid PABP. 32% of the commonly upregulated genes fall into stress response mRNAs.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 M-bM-^HM-^Ffnr mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. The mutations engineered into this strain produce a strain lacking the FNR protein. A RNA-seq study using total RNA recovered from two separate cultures of Escherichia coli MG1655 K-12 WT and two separate cultures of the M-bM-^HM-^Ffnr mutant strain.The results are further described in the article "Genome-scale Analysis of E.coli FNR Revealse the Complexity of Bacterial Regulon Structure".
