Abstract

A barcoded transposon mutant library (RB-TnSeq) of Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 was screened on 23 substrates, each as a sole carbon source. In February of 2021 the RB-TnSeq library was grown in the laboratory in minimal medium with a substrate of interest, cultures were sequentially transfered four times to increase selection. Mutants with phenotypes that decreased fitness on the substrate of interest grow at a lower rate than mutants with no loss of fitness. Sequencing the barcodes of mutants after...

Processing Notes from Researcher:

Sequence data were processed according to Wetmore et al (2015). Following quality control, an average of 35,090 unique barcodes mapped to insertions that fell within the interior 10 to 90% of R. pomeroyi coding sequences. In total, 55 million reads were mapped to insertions in 3,570 genes (out of 4,469 protein-encoding genes in the R. pomeroyi genome) with a median of 404,513 mapped reads per sample. Reads mapping to different insertion sites within the same coding sequence were pooled.
