RNA-seq of Clostridioides difficile ?sigV??anti-sigV against wild-type strain control

To reveal the effects of deleting the ?sigV and ?anti-sigV on clindamycin tolerance in Clostridioides difficile, we first constructed knockout mutants of the sigV and anti-sigV genes and then examined the resulting phenotypic changes, with a particular focus on alterations in clindamycin tolerance. To further elucidate the mechanism underlying the observed changes in clindamycin tolerance, we performed transcriptomic data analysis to identify how sigV and anti-sigV regulate clindamycin-related pathways.
