genome sequencing of Pseudomonas sp. ZS1 strain

The Pseudomonas sp. ZS1 strain has been shown to produce high-level rhamnolipids (50g/L) in mineral salt medium supplemented with glucose (Glc-medium). In this study, we show that ZS1 in the medium supplemented with YE (YE-medium) produces more cell biomass but less rhamnolipid than it does in Glc-medium. To elucidate the transcriptional regulation of genes that are involved in biosynthesis of rhamnolipids and its precursors, RNA-seq-based transcriptional profiling of ZS1 cells in response to reciprocal change of YEand Glc-media is performed using the ZS1 draft genome.
