We performed an RNA-Seq analysis of nine of E.coli single knockout strains from the Keio collection carrying deletions in tRNA modification genes (dusB, truA, truD, thiI, miaA, rlmN, mnmA, mnmC, mnmG) and wildtype. RNA was isolated from each of the different strains at grown in LB at 37˚C up to mid-exponential phase (OD(A600nm) ~0.6) in three biological replicates.
Proteomic analysis reveals translation-related proteins are significantly altered in response to stabilized G4s. Identification of the importance of translation factors in overcoming G4s led to the question of how E. coli cells generally respond to chemicals that stabilize such structures. As a first step in addressing this question, a proteomic analysis was carried out to measure the quantitative effects of NMM on the levels of individual proteins in E. coli. Protein levels from early log-phase cultures of delta-tolC and delta-tolC tufA::kan strains grown in the presence or absence of NMM were measured to assess how reduced EF- Tu levels and NMM impacted expression.
