Effect of Mfd on gene expression after exposure to t-BHP or diamide. a) Fold-change in ohrR mRNA expression after two-hour exposure to 1 mM t-BHP in the parental strain (YB955) and the mfd mutant (YB9801). b) Fold-change in yodB mRNA expression after two-hour exposure to 1 mM diamide in the parental strain (YB955) and the mfd mutant (YB9801). Fold-change in expression was calculated using the 2-ΔΔCt method. Means and standard error are presented. The veg gene was used as the control. Each condition was replicated three independent times. For a) and b), there were three technical replicates for each condition (total n = 9)
