Effects of RofA and the modified intergenic region, on FCT-region gene transcription in the absence of <i>msmR</i>, as determined by qRT-PCR.

*Each mid log and stationary phase value is based on 3 different RNA preparations generated in parallel, with 2 cDNA preparations generated from each RNA preparation (6 experiments in total). Differences >2-fold are highlighted in bold. **Average for each RNA preparation from Alab49 rofA::aad9 ΔmsmR cultures, used to generate the cumulative qRT-PCR data. ˆt-value is based on the transcript abundance ratio relative to wt Alab49, for mid-logarithmic versus stationary phase cultures (paired, 2-tailed t-test). NS, not significant.
