Sample GSM1689906 Query DataSets for GSM1689906
Status Public on May 18, 2016
Title C_difficile_Biofilm_3
Sample type SRA
 
Source name Clostridium difficile cells
Organism Clostridioides difficile R20291
Characteristics growth: biofilm
Growth protocol For planktonic samples, overnight culture in brain heart infusion media supplemented with 0.5% yeast extract and 0.1% L-cysteine (BHIS) was mixed 1:10 with fresh BHIS and grown with shaking for 6 h before mixing 1:1 with RNAProtect™ (Qiagen). Biofilm samples were grown for 1 week in glass jars containing 8 mm glass beads. The glass beads were added in order to increase surface area and maximize RNA yields. BHIS medium was changed daily and 6 h prior to cell harvest. To harvest adherent cells (biofilm), media was removed and the beads rinsed with fresh media before covering with RNAProtect™ and subjecting to vigorous shaking for 2 min. For plate growth samples, overnight culture was streaked onto Columbia blood agar plates (BD Biosciences) and kept in the anaerobic chamber for 24 hours prior to a three-day room temperature growth in an anaerobic GasPak container (BD Biosciences). Plates were returned to the anaerobic chamber for cell harvesting and placement into RNAprotect™. All samples were stored at -80°C until used for RNA-sequencing.
Extracted molecule total RNA
Extraction protocol The RNeasy™ RNA purification kit (Qiagen) was used per the manufacturer’s instructions. Total RNA samples were treated with DNase I (Invitrogen). The level of ribosomal RNA present in total RNA samples was reduced prior to library construction using the Ribo-Zero™ Gram Positive Bacteria rRNA Removal Kit (Epicentre Technologies, Madison, WI).
RNA libraries were prepared for sequencing using standard Illumina protocols
 
Library strategy RNA-Seq
Library source transcriptomic
Library selection cDNA
Instrument model Illumina HiSeq 2000
 
Data processing Reads were aligned to the reference genome using Bowtie2 v. 2.1.0
The resulting sorted aligned reads were analyzed with Cufflinks to measure the relative abundance.The expression of each transcript was quantified as FPKM. Data normalization and differential expression (DE) analysis were done using the DESeq package from Bioconductor. A cutoff false discovery rate adjusted p-value (or q-value) of less than 0.05 was used to select significant DE genes
