***The experimenters examined 12 two-component regulatory systems in ''Shigella flexneri'' for their abilities to sense changes in environmental conditions and regulate gene expression in response. Virulence was testing by infecting Henle cells with wild type and mutant TCRS. They found four systems required for the formation of plaque in wild-type and microarray analysis was performed to identify which genes were regulated differently by the NtrBC system or by Nac.

Group Members

Group Meeting Times

Thursday, November 5th at 8:00 pm

Goals

Over the upcoming weeks our group will be investigating Shigella flexneri.

Week 10

  1. Find genome sequence paper
  2. Find 4-8 microarray data and paper that goes with the genome paper
  3. Compile team page to and create a ranked annotated bibliography

Week 11

  1. Prepare for journal club presentations in Weeks 12 and 13
  2. Begin initial tasks on research project

Overview of Genome Paper

  • Used the genome sequencing article to perform a prospective search in the Web of Science database.
  • Overview of the search:
    • How many articles does this article cite? 37
    • How many articles cite this article? 303
    • Based on the titles and abstracts of the papers, what type of research directions have been taken now that the genome for that organism has been sequenced?
      • Now that the genome has been sequenced, a majority of research has been done on discovering which genes are responsible for virulence and pathogenesis as well as potential antibiotics. Genomic research is also focused on how S. flexneri has been able to develop resistance to multiple drugs. Furthermore, Shigella is suspected to have evolved from Escherichia coli so a lot of research has been done in how and when pathogenic Shigella split from E. coli on the evolutionary tree.

  • State which database you used to find the data and article: ArrayExpress
  • State what you used as search terms and what type of search terms they were: "shigella flexneri" filtered by organism, experiment type: "rna assay", experiment type: "array assay"
  • Give an overview of the results of the search.
    • How many results did you get? 7 results returned with 6 viable options due to the number assays.
    • Give an assessment of how relevant the results were: Very relevant, 6/7 results were viable.
  • Link to microarray data
  • What experiment was performed? What was the "treatment" and what was the "control" in the experiment?
    • Antibiotics (RNA Polymerase Inhibitors) were added to Shigella flexneri in order to see if bacteria became less active. The control was a group of bacteria with no drugs added to them, and the treatment was a group of bacteria with drugs added to them.
  • Were replicate experiments of the "treatment" and "control" conditions conducted? Were these biological or technical replicates? How many of each?
    • There are two drugs RX and RP with 6 samples per drug. The experiment was run 3 times which yielded 36 assays. I believe that means 3 biological replicates and 12 technical replicates within each experiment, but I am not 100 percent sure.
