Total RNA Extraction from Rhizobium etli Cell or Bacteroid Pellets

This application note compares an extensive compilation of non-coding RNA (ncRNAs) predictions to intergenic expression data of a whole-genome, high-resolution tiling array in the soil-dwelling α-proteobacterium Rhizobium etli. ncRNAs play a crucial role in the intricate regulation of bacterial gene expression, allowing bacteria to quickly adapt to changing environments. The Precellys®24 homogenizer is an easy to use device that can be utilized to accomplish a thorough lysis of even stationary phase cells in combination with the lysing kit.
