Popis: Abstract Background Chemical signaling between a mammalian host and intestinal microbes is health and maintenance of ‘healthy’ intestinal microbiota. Escherichia coli O157:H7 can hijack host- and microbiota-produced chemical signals for survival in a harsh and nutritionally competitive gastrointestinal environment and for intestinal colonization. Norepinephrine (NE) produced by sympathetic neurons of the enteric nervous system has been shown in vitro to induce expression of genes controlling E. coli O157:H7 swimming motility, acid resistance, and adherence to epithelial cells. A previous study used a microarray approach to identify differentially expressed genes in E. coli O157:H7 strain EDL933 in response to NE. To elucidate a comprehensive transcriptional response to NE, we performed RNA-Seq on rRNA-depleted RNA of E. coli O157:H7 strain NADC 6564, an isolate of a foodborne E. coli O157:H7 strain 86–24. The reads generated by RNA-Seq were mapped to NADC 6564 genome using HiSat2. The mapped reads were quantified by htseq-count against the genome of strain NADC 6564. The differentially expressed genes were identified by analyzing quantified reads by DESeq2. Results Of the 585 differentially expressed genes (≥ 2.0-fold; p
