Differentially expressed proteins with the corresponding transcripts expression trend regrouped by functions for the comparison between GISA strain 14-4, and MRGR3 or 14-4Rev (A and B). Similar general profiles were obtained for the two comparisons between the GISA and either of the susceptible strains while totally different profile was observed for the two susceptible strains. Functional classes are: C = energy production and conversion; D = cell division and chromosome partitioning; E = amino acid transport and metabolism; F = nucleotide transport and metabolism; G = carbohydrate transport and metabolism; H = coenzyme metabolism; I = lipid metabolism; J = translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis; K = transcription; L = DNA replication, recombination and repair; M = cell envelope biogenesis, outer membrane; N = cell motility; O = post-translational modification, protein turnover, chaperones; P = inorganic ion transport and metabolism; Q = secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism; R = general function prediction; S = function unknown; T = signal transduction mechanisms; U = secretion; V = defense mechanism. Number of proteins for each category is indicated on top of the corresponding columns.
