Genes listed are those whose transcription, according to microarray analysis, differed more than twofold (ratio of >2.0 and <0.5) in the HP0121-deficient mutant H. pylori 26695/HP1021::km compared to the 26695 wild-type strain.
ORF numbers and prediction of transcriptional units are according to the genome sequences of H. pylori 26695 and J99 (2, 35).
The functional annotation is that used by the PyloriGene database (http://www.pasteur.fr/english.html).
m indicates monocistronically transcribed genes, and op indicates putative transcriptional units. A question mark indicates that the proposed operon structure cannot be unambiguously deduced from the genome sequence.
Where a reference(s) is given, pH-responsive transcription or ArsR∼P-dependent regulation was reported by Merrell et al. (20), Wen et al. (39), Bury-Moné et al. (7), or Pflock et al. (30). A plus sign denotes positive regulation by a low pH or ArsR∼P, and a minus sign denotes negative regulation by a low pH or ArsR∼P.
