Project description:The goal of this study is to investigate differential transcription profiles of leaf material/cells accumulating different levels of alkaloids in the anticancer plant Catharanthus roseus.
Project description:This dataset belongs to a set of three RNA-Seq experiments that were carried out to study the regulation of monoterpenoid indole alkaloid production in the medicinal plant Catharanthus roseus. For this dataset, C. roseus hairy roots overexpressing the well-known MIA biosynthesis regulator ORCA3 were analyzed by RNA-Seq. As control, C. roseus hairy roots expressing GUS were used. Each analyzed sample consisted of an independent hairy root line; three hairy root lines per construct were analyzed.
