Expression Data from Brucella abortus strain 2308 and isogenic mavR mutant cells. Expression Data from Brucella abortus strain 2308 and isogenic mavR mutant cells

MavR is a 160 nucleotide regulatory RNA molecule that is produced during B. abortus strain 2308 growth in nutrient-replete broth. We used custom-made Affymetrix B. abortus strain 2308 derived GeneChips to compare the gene expression properties of wild type and isogenic mavR mutant cells. Overall design: B. abortus strain 2308 or mavR mutant cells were grown to late exponential growth phase in brucella broth , total bacterial RNA was isolated and subjected to GeneChip hybridization and analysis. We sought to determine the regulatory effects of abcR1 and abcR2 RNA species.
