Harnessing a previously described cystic fibrosis-relevant, polymicrobial community model consisting of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus sanguinis, and Prevotella melaninogenica, we performed an RNA-Seq analysis on the biofilm population to elucidate the transcriptional profiles of the community grown in artificial sputum medium (ASM) as compared to growth in monoculture, without mucin, and in fresh medium supplemented with tobramycin. The gene discussed is MUC5AC; the disease is cystic fibrosis.
