rre37 Overexpression Alters Gene Expression Related to the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle and Pyruvate Metabolism in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

Figure 3

Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of transcription in GT and ROX370. Relative transcript levels of 6 genes involved in pyruvate metabolism (ppc, pps, pyk1, pyk2, me, and ddh) are shown. Data represent the mean ± SD from four independent experiments. Transcript levels were calibrated relative to that of corresponding levels in GT under nitrogen-replete conditions (set at 100%). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences between GT and ROX370 (Student’s -test; , ).
