The regulatory role of PhoPQ TCS in the expression of sodA1, katA2, katE, ahpC, smeV, and fadA genes. Overnight culture of KJ and KJΔPhoPQ cells was inoculated into fresh LB broth without or with MD at an initial OD450nm of 0.15. Cells were grown aerobically for 5 h before measuring sodA1, katA2, katE, ahpC, smeV, and fadA transcripts using qRT-PCR. All values were normalized to the transcript of MD-non-treated KJ cells. Bars represent the average values from three independent experiments. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean. *, P < 0.001, significance calculated by Student’s t test
