Table 1. Lack of change in mRNA levels for Shiga-like toxin genes in O157:H7 cells treated with 0.8% bile salts relative to control (calculations of “fold change” are based on triplicate culture/microarray experiments for each treatment).
Gene symbol | Gene name & function | Fold change | p-value |
---|---|---|---|
stx1A | Shiga-like toxin 1 - virulence | 1.06 (insignificant) | NS |
stx1B | " | 1.15 (insignificant) | NS |
stx2A | Shiga-like toxin 2 - virulence | 1.06 (insignificant) | NS |
stx2B | " | .90 (insignificant) | NS |
“NS” denotes “not significant” for p-values > 0.05.
