Figure 5. Categories of some DEGs based on KEGG.

Figure 5

A) Global pathways; B) Metabolism pathways; C) Genetic information processing pathways; D) Environmental information processing pathways; E) Cellular processes pathways; F) Organismal Systems pathways. We from our point of view selected 28 pathways based on the potential role and interaction with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, where we tried to make the selection cover all the stages of infection and immune response, then made further study on the selected pathways, where we grouped it into six categories based on KEGG, and illustrate its distribution as shown in Figure 5. Results suggested that in these 28 selected pathways the DGEs mainly distributed in global pathways, cellular processes pathways and organismal Systems pathways.
