Transcription profiling of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans type strain ATCC23270 grown in the presence of iron or elemental sulfur as energy source until mid logarithmic phase
Transcriptional profiles from Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans type strain ATCC23270 grown in the presence of iron or elemental sulfur as energy source until mid logarithmic phase were compared. Cells were harvested after 48 hs of growth in 9K-FeII pH 1.6 and after 120 hs of growth in 9K-S0 pH 3.5. Pellets were washed to remove precipitates, frozen and stored at -80C until RNA extraction.
