Fig 1. Gene Ontology (GO) molecular function terms assigned to the differentially expressed genes.

Fig 1

Genes whose expression was differentially regulated when the bacteria were grown in whole blood from the patients compared to the healthy volunteer were analyzed using PANTHER GO-Slim Molecular Function analysis [42,43]. A total of 4949 GO terms were assigned to the 2348 mapped genes, with 1425 of these being unclassified. The remaining 3524 terms represented enzymatic activity—2269 (A), substrate binding—678 (B), transporter activity—480 (C), and functions related to transcription, translation, and DNA replication—670 (D). Some functions were assigned to more than one category.
