Description
IrrE is a unique gene in Deinococcus, which is the switch of DNA repair and celluar surival network. Expressing IrrE enhanced the salt tolence in E. coli. To understand the effect of IrrE to E. coli during salt shock, we constructed the IrrE-expressing plasmid pMG1-IrrE. And pMG1 is the empty vector used as a control.
