Breakdown of newly annotated metabolic functions in the genome of Bacillus subtilis. (A) Using the available metabolic models we determined the gene pathways associations for 40% of the new functions (total 1699, comprising the genes listed in Table S1, and a further list of 578 genes in metabolic networks characterized from the present annotation). (B) Out of the new annotated function used in metabolic models we found that 53 genes are explicitly associated with metals for transport and metabolism.
