A modular system regulates specialized metabolite pathway branch choice in the medicinal plant Catharanthus roseus.

This dataset belongs to a set of three RNA-Seq experiments that were carried out to study the regulation of monoterpenoid indole alkaloid production in the medicinal plant Catharanthus roseus. For this dataset, C. roseus hairy roots overexpressing the well-known MIA biosynthesis regulator ORCA3 were analyzed by RNA-Seq. As control, C. roseus hairy roots expressing GUS were used. Each analyzed sample consisted of an independent hairy root line; three hairy root lines per construct were analyzed.
