The effect of the pBCXO1 plasmid on the transcriptome of Bacillus cereus G9241 at both 37  and 25 degree celsius
RNA-seq experiment comparing the transcriptomes of Bacillus cereus G9241 WT to B. cereus G9241 ?pBCXO1 when cultured both 37 and 25 degree celsius. B. cereus G9241 is a B. cereus sensu stricto strain that was isolated from a welder with and anthrax-like illness. B. cereus G9241 carries the plasmids pBCXO1 and pBC210. pBCX01 has 99.6% sequence identity to pXO1 carried by Bacillus anthracis and encodes the tripartite anthrax toxin genes and atxA, a mammalian virulence transcriptional regulator. B. cereus G9241 WT and B. cereus G9241 ?pBCXO1 were cultured to exponential phase at either 37 or 25 degree celsius before samples were taken for RNA extraction, library prep and sequencing.
