Effect of the smeR deletion on smeAB expression
| Gene | Fold change at indicated phase (OD600 value)a |
|
|---|---|---|
| Log phase (0.6) | Stationary phase (1.7) | |
| smeA | 10.2 ± 2.7 | 8.1 ± 2.9 |
| smeB | 9.0 ± 1.2 | 7.6 ± 0.9 |
The relative change in mRNA expression is calculated from the cycle threshold values obtained by real-time PCR analysis. Positive values indicate higher expression in the smeR mutant. The means ± standard deviations from three independent experiments are shown.
