a
COGs functional categories (44). The full functional categories associated with each COGs letter designation are given in the legend to Fig. 3. Where no precise function is apparent from amino acid homology, the general COGs category title is listed under the predicted function.
b
Expression values are expressed as the log2 of (average experimental intensity/average control intensity) ± 1 standard deviation. Therefore, identical experimental and control expression values would be 0.0.
c
No standard deviation could be calculated as the data were derived from fewer than three values.
