G. sulfurreducens is a representative of Geobacteraceae that has been extensively studied with the goal of extending the understanding of this family of organisms for optimizing their practical applications. Here, we have analyzed gene expression data from 10 experiments involving environmental and genetic perturbations and have identified putative transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) involved in regulating key aspects of metabolism. Specifically, we considered data from both a subset of 10 microarray experiments (7 of 10) and all 10 experiments. The expression data from these two sets were independently clustered, and the upstream regions of genes and operons from the clusters in both sets were used to identify TFBS using the AlignACE program. This analysis resulted in the identification of motifs upstream of several genes involved in central metabolism, sulfate assimilation, and energy metabolism, as well as genes potentially encoding acetate permease. Further, similar TFBS were identified from the analysis of both sets, suggesting that these TFBS are significant in the regulation of metabolism in G. sulfurreducens. In addition, we have utilized microarray data to derive condition specific constraints on the capacity of key enzymes in central metabolism. We have incorporated these constraints into the metabolic model of G. sulfurreducens and simulated Fe(II)-limited growth. The resulting prediction was consistent with data, suggesting that regulatory constraints are important for simulating growth phenotypes in nonoptimal environments.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18266557?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yan, Bin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Núñez, Cinthia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ueki, Toshiyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Esteve-Núñez, Abraham</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Puljic, Marko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adkins, Ronald M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methé, Barbara A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lovley, Derek R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Krushkal, Julia</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Computational prediction of RpoS and RpoD regulatory sites in Geobacter sulfurreducens using sequence and gene expression information.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Amino Acid Sequence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bacterial Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Base Sequence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Citrates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Computational Biology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Conserved Sequence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA-Directed RNA Polymerases</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escherichia coli</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escherichia coli Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Deletion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Profiling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation, Bacterial</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes, Bacterial</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Bacterial</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Geobacter</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molecular Sequence Data</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Operon</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promoter Regions, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sigma Factor</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transcription, Genetic</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006 Dec 15</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">384</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73-95</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RpoS, the sigma S subunit of RNA polymerase, is vital during the growth and survival of Geobacter sulfurreducens under conditions typically encountered in its native subsurface environments. We investigated the conservation of sites that may be important for RpoS function in G. sulfurreducens. We also employed sequence information and expression microarray data to predict G. sulfurreducens genome sites that may be related to RpoS regulation. Hierarchical clustering identified three clusters of significantly downregulated genes in the rpoS deletion mutant. The search for conserved overrepresented motifs in co-regulated operons identified likely -35 and -10 promoter elements upstream of a number of functionally important G. sulfurreducens operons that were downregulated in the rpoS deletion mutant. Putative -35/-10 promoter elements were also identified in the G. sulfurreducens genome using sequence similarity searches to matrices of -35/-10 promoter elements found in G. sulfurreducens and in Escherichia coli. Due to a sufficient degree of sequence similarity between -35/-10 promoter elements for RpoS, RpoD, and other sigma factors, both the sequence similarity searches and the search for conserved overrepresented motifs using microarray data may identify promoter elements for both RpoS and other sigma factors.</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17014972?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
