To elucidate the understanding of non-antibiotic cellular functions, here we report transcriptome-profiling analysis of <jats:italic>Escherichia coli<\/jats:italic> in the absence or presence of 0.5 and 1\u2009\u03bcM of Kanamycin B, concentrations that are neither lethal nor inhibit growth, and identified the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at two given concentrations of Kanamycin B. Functional classification of the DEGs revealed that they were mainly related to microbial metabolism including two-component systems, biofilm formation, oxidative phosphorylation and nitrogen metabolism in diverse environments. We further showed that Kanamycin B and other aminoglycosides can induce reporter gene expression through the 5\u2032 UTR of <jats:italic>napF<\/jats:italic> gene or <jats:italic>narK<\/jats:italic> gene (both identified as DEG) and Kanamycin B can directly bind to the RNA. The results provide new insights into a better understanding of the wider aminoglycosides cellular function in <jats:italic>E. coli<\/jats:italic> rather than its known antibiotics function.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2022.937827","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,29]],"date-time":"2022-11-29T13:36:37Z","timestamp":1669728997000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Transcriptome profiling in response to Kanamycin B reveals its wider non-antibiotic cellular function in Escherichia coli"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Yaowen","family":"Chang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xuhui","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alastair I.
