Samples were incubated on ice for 5 min, followed by the addition of chloroform at one-fifth the total volume (200 µL) with gentle inversion. After a 15 min incubation on ice, samples were centrifuged at 12,000 g for 15 min at 4 °C. The aqueous phase (approximately 450 µL) was carefully transferred into a clean tube and mixed with an equal volume of isopropanol (450 µL). Samples were incubated at −80 °C for 30 min and then centrifuged at 12,000 g for 20 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was washed with 1 mL of ice-cold 75% ethanol by gentle inversion. After centrifugation at 12,000 g for 5 min at 4 °C, the supernatant was removed and the ethanol wash was repeated under the same conditions. The final pellet was allowed to air-dry until nearly translucent and then resuspended in 30 µL of RNase-free water to fully dissolve the RNA.","Sample Collection - Pseudomonas entomophila (P.e.) was used for natural (oral) infections. Briefly, for oral infection, flies (app. 7 days of age, except for flies fed oleic acid supplemented food prior to infection) were placed in a fly vial with food/bacteria solution and maintained at 25 °C.  Intact fly (genotype: NP1Gal4>UAS-Lucif.RNAi) midguts were dissected in PBS.","Sequencing - Sample libraries were sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq system. Sequence cluster identification, quality pre-filtering, base calling and uncertainty assessment were done in real time using Illumina's HCS and RTA software with default parameter settings."],"figure_sub":["Organization","MINSEQE Score","Assays and Data","Processed Data","MAGE-TAB Files"],"data_protocol":["Data Transformation - Between 8 and 10 million (2X150) base pair reads were generated per library and mapped to the Drosophila genome (Release 6).
