Transcriptome data set of Cellvibrio japonicus grown using β-glucan media

TL;DR

This paper provides transcriptome data of Cellvibrio japonicus when it grows using barley β-glucan as its only carbon source.

Contribution

The novelty lies in presenting transcriptome data sets for C. japonicus under β-glucan growth conditions.

Findings

Transcriptome data was collected during exponential growth and stationary phase.

Barley β-glucan was used as the sole carbon source for C. japonicus.

The data highlights gene expression patterns during polysaccharide utilization.

Abstract

Cellvibrio japonicus is a gram-negative, saprophytic bacterium that is a polysaccharide utilization specialist capable of degrading diverse, complex, and recalcitrant polysaccharides. Here, we present transcriptome data sets during exponential growth and stationary phase for C. japonicus using barley β-glucan as the sole carbon source.
