Transcriptome profiling of the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii phot mutant

To investigate the gene regulatory effect of the phototropin receptor PHOT, RNAseq data of the corresponding knock-out mutant was compared to wt data grown in high and low light. Overall design: Samples of liquid batch cultures grown autotrophically were analyzed by RNA sequencing prior and after high light exposure. This experiment was conducted in tripicates with CC-125 wt cultures and phot cultures.
