a

Based on the published sequence of strain N315 (accession no. NC_002745). For genes not present in N315, the gene name and description given are from the COL genome, available from The Institute for Genomic Research Comprehensive Microbial Resource website (http://www.tigr.org) or the respective accession number. HP, hypothetical protein.

b

Normalized values in the ΔrsbUVW-sigB mutant over values in the rsbU+V+W+ sigB+ strain. “Down” denotes genes highly downregulated in the rsbU+V+W+ sigB strain, such that the transcripts were below detectable levels and the change could not be accurately calculated.
