Transcriptome profiles of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) wild type and wblC (whiB7) mutant treated with tetracycline

We determined Streptomyces coelicolor genes that are directly regulated by WblC (or WhiB7), an actinobacterial transcription factor that activates expression of intrinsic resistance in response to translation-inhibitory antibiotic stress. Identification of differentially expressed genes in wblC mutant by RNA-seq and WblC binding sites in wild type by ChIP-seq identified more than 300 genes as WblC regulon. This series encompasses the RNA-seq data of our study. Overall design: Transcriptome profiles of either tetracycline-treated or untreated wild type and wblC mutant strains were obtained using Illumina HiSeq. RNA samples were prepared in biologically independent duplicates.
