Abstract:Little is known about the gene expression program during transition from lysogenic to lytic cycles of temperate bacteriophages in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To investigate this issue, we developed a thermo-sensitive repressor mutant in a lysogen and analyzed the phage transcriptional program by strand-specific RNA-Seq before and after thermo-induction. As expected, the repressor gene located on the phage DNA forward strand, is transcribed in the lysogen at the permissive temperature of 30 degree C. Upstream the p… Show more
