Project name: Thermus thermophilus HB8

Description: We observed the expression profile of the total mRNA of litR (TTHB100) deletion mutant of T. thermophilus HB8 strain grown in a rich (TM) medium at 60 °C under the dark condition compared with that of wild-type.Overall design: Three wild-type strain of T. thermophilus HB8 were pre-cultured at 60 °C for 16 hours in 100 mL of TM medium containing 0.8% polypeptone, 0.4% yeast extract, 0.2% NaCl, 0.4 mM CaCl2, and 0.4 mM MgCl2, which was adjusted to pH 7.5 with NaOH. The cells (1 mL) were inoculated into 100 mL of the synthetic medium and then cultivated at 60°C for 8 hours under dark condition. Then the 1.0 mM of ZnSO4 was added into the medium, and continued cultivation. Cells were collected, and then, the expression of each mRNA was analyzed.
