Transcriptome Analysis of the different expressed genes affected by ClpP in B. abortus 2308
Purpose:To gain insight into the spectrum of Brucella gene affected by the ClpP protease, as well as the genetic basis for the distinctive phenotypic properties exhibited by the clpP mutant strain. Methods: Three B. abortus 2308 and the three clpP mutant were grown in TSB at 37? until the log phase was reached, total RNA was isolated using the TRIzol according to the manufacturer's instructions.The sequencing library of each RNA sample was prepared by using NEB Next Ultra Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina as recommended by the manufacturer.The HiSeq 4000 platform was used to perform the transcriptome sequencing. Results: In total, 772 genes that exhibited different expression (Fold change>4, and FDR<0.05) were identified in the clpP mutant. In the clpP mutant strain, 376 genes were up-regulated and 396 genes were down-regulated. Conclusions: According to the result of COG analysis, the different expressed genes were mainly involved in Energy production and conversion, Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis, and Carbohydrate transport and metabolism. KEGG pathway analysis demonstrated that the genes exhibited significant difference were primarily enriched in ABC transporters, beta-Lactam resistance, Oxidative phosphorylation, Cationic antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) resistance, Limonene and pinene degradation, Lysine degradation, Valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation, Chloroalkane and chloroalkene degradation, Ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, Tryptophan metabolism, Citrate cycle (TCA cycle), and Histidine metabolism. Overall design: mRNA profiles of Three B. abortus 2308 and three clpP mutant were generated by deep sequencing using HiSeq 4000 platform
