FIG. 1.

Growth phase differences in gene expression in R. capsulatus. The numbers of genes that display ≥2-fold-higher transcript levels in the logarithmic and stationary phases that fall within each specified gene categories are shown. The categories are based on the TIGR roles indicated in the genome annotation; for simplicity, we combined the following: cellular processes and cell envelope; amino acid biosynthesis, protein synthesis, and protein fate; signal transduction, transcription, and regulatory functions; and unknown functions and hypothetical proteins. The transcript and proteome data for all genes are in Table S2 (logarithmic phase) and Table S3 (stationary phase) in the supplemental material.
