Transcriptome dynamics of the Myxococcus xanthus multicellular developmental program

Transcriptome dynamics of the Myxococcus xanthus multicellular developmental program

The bacterium Myxococcus xanthus exhibits a complex multicellular life cycle. In the presence of nutrients, cells prey cooperatively. Upon starvation, they enter a developmental cycle wherein cells aggregate to produce macroscopic fruiting bodies filled with resistant myxospores. We used RNA-Seq tec...
