Phenotypes and gene expression profiles of <it>Saccharopolyspora erythraea </it>rifampicin-resistant (<it>rif</it>) mutants affected in erythromycin production

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>There is evidence from previous works that bacterial secondary metabolism may be stimulated by genetic manipulation of RNA polymerase (RNAP). In this study we have used rifampicin selection as a strategy to genetically improve the er...
