The aim of the study is to assess the global function of RNase Y in RNA processing and degradation in Bacillus subtilis. To this end we constructed a strain allowing controlled depletion of RNase Y and used microarrays to analyze the transcriptome in response to the expression level of RNase Y.

B. subtilis was grown in minimal media in a chemostat at different growth rates (µ= max, µ=0.1, µ=0.4) and in the presence of 1.2M NaCl (µ=0.1) with or without glycinebetaine. Transcriptome, proteome and metabolome were investigated.

3 chemostat experiments:

each in 4 biological replicates incl. 1 fed with labelled glucose T = 37°C pH = 7.1 V_R = 300 mL (dasgip parallel bioreactor system) V_G = 9 sL/h (0.5 vvm) M9 Minimal medium + 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate (chelating agent) + 1g/L Glucose n = 1000 rpm

3 conditions:

"reference" without additional sodium chloride as control "stress" supplemented with 1.2M sodium chloride "osmoprotection" supplemented with 1.2M sodium chloride and 1mM glycine betaine (osmoprotectant)

The main aim of this experiment is to actively grow B.subtilis in presense of glucose until high optical density in an aerobic fermentor and then, at a definite point of the growth, the glucose supply is shut down which leads to complete glucose exhaustion in the media. Simultaneusly samples for transcriptomics, intra and extracellular metabolomics, intra and extracellular proteomics are harvested through out the experiment.

In this kind of studies sigmaB stress response is induced by the addition of artificial inducers of sigmaB. For example simgaB is downstream of a Pspac promoter and induced by the addition of IPTG. A ctc::lacZ reporter gene is used to monitor sigmaB activity.

The aim of the study is to test the interplay of the effects of different transcriptional regulators on gene expression during different environmental responses in B. subtilis. For a selected set of transcriptional regulators native proteins are fusion-labelled. The intensity of expression of each reporter protein is measured in the absence of several transcriptional regulators that compete for the RNA polymerase.
