TABLE 5.
Target genes | Mean ratio ± SDa |
|
---|---|---|
RAN433 | RAN429 | |
catR and rpoB | 4.5 ± 0.3 | 7.3 ± 0.9 |
mldA and rpoB | 1.4 ± 0.9 | 9.6 ± 0.9 |
catR and mldA | 4.0 ± 2.3 | 0.76 ± 0.1 |
The means for three biological replicates are shown, each assayed with three technical replicates. RAN433 harbors pRPF185: cat is on the plasmid, and both rpoB and mldA are chromosomal. RAN429 harbors pRAN416: cat is on the plasmid, rpoB is on the chromosome, and mldA is on both the plasmid and the chromosome.
