Transcriptome analysis and differentially expressed regulons. (A) Venn-diagrams of differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Venn diagrams representing the number of DEGs in the indicated pairwise comparisons. pnp+, C-1a; Δpnp, C-5691; PNPT1Ec, C-6001. (B) Differentially expressed regulons (P < 0.5; dotted line) in pairwise comparison. Enrichment analysis was performed with the Pathway tool available at the EcoCyc website51. Colour code and strain tags are as in (A). (C) Northern blotting analysis of gene expression. RNA was extracted from exponential cultures of C-1a (Ec), C-5691 (Δ) and C-6001 (Hs). 20 and 10 µg of RNA were run on 1.5% denaturing agarose gel (recA panel) or 6% denaturing polyacrylamide gel (cpxQ and soxS panels), respectively, blotted onto nylon filters and hybridized with radiolabelled oligonucleotides complementary to the mRNAs under analysis. 5S and 23S rRNA signals were used as loading controls.
