Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE25408: The pan-genome of the dominant human gut-associated archaeon, Methanobrevibacter smithii GSE25535: Expression data from an in vitro growth of Methanobrevibacter smithii PS Refer to individual Series
Project description:RNA-sequencing is a powerful tool for exploring expression profiles of microbial species that does not require the production of a custom genechip. We used microarrays to compare our quantitative RNA-sequencing method to the standard expression quantification methods Methanobrevibacter smithii PS cultures were grown to stationary phase under 80% hydrogen, 20% CO2, with varying amounts of formate. RNA was extracted and purified, then divided into two aliquots per sample. One aliquot was prepared for hybridization on Affymetrix gene chips, the other was prepared for microbial RNA-sequencing.
