RNA-Seq of Streptococcus thermophilus CH8: Chemically defined medium, early exponential phase
The RNA extraction procedure was performed with RNeasy Mini Kit. The Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal Kit for Bacteria (Illumina) was used for ribosomal RNA depletion. The TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit (2 _ 75 bp; Illumina) was used for library preparation and paired-end sequencing was performed on an Illumina NextSeq.
