Microarray analysis of the deletion of transcription regulator SurR in the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis

ABSTRACT: Thermococcus kodakarensis preferentially utilizes amino acids as carbon and energy sources in the presence of elemental sulfur as a terminal electron acceptor, while it can assimilate and grow on starch or pyruvate using proton as a terminal acceptor, generating hydrogen in the absence of elemental sulfur. SurR is a transcriptional regulator controlling hydrogen and elemental sulfur metabolism. To identify the genes that are under the regulation of Tk-SurR, we investigated the transcriptional profiling of Tk-SurR deletion strain grown in the presence of elemental sulfur at 85˚C by comparing with the host strain, KU216. One-condition experiment, KU216 vs. DTS cells. Technical replicates: 2 DTS grown in the presence of elemental sulfur at 85˚C, independently measured. One replicate per arr
