Functional classification of 274 candidate genes potentially disrupted by 170 GMR>DeltaWT-modifying transposons

Functional category	Total no. of genes
Cell–cell communication	25
Cell metabolism	40
Cytoskeletal/trafficking	20
Gene regulation	62
Lipid metabolism	7
Protein metabolism	27
Transporters	14
Novel/unable to assign	79
No identified CG in region	16
Total genes	274

Members of a set of 274 candidate genes predicted to be affected by the 170 modifying transposons were placed within seven functional categories or classified as unknown. Since a few genes were recovered more than once, the number of transposon lines for each category may be higher than the number of genes represented by each category.
