TABLE 5.

Expression analysis of representative quorum sensing regulated genes

Gene	Fold change (microarray)^a	Fold change (real-time PCR)^b	Relevant comparison
exsH	4	12↓^c	expR⁺sinI mutant vs expR⁺sinI⁺
exsH	5	11.2↓	expR mutant sinI⁺ vs expR⁺sinI⁺
ndvA	2	5.9↑	expR mutant sinI mutant vs expR⁺sinI mutant
ndvB	0.1	0.6	expR mutant sinI mutant vs expR⁺sinI mutant
flaF	3.5	7.1↓	expR mutant sinI mutant vs expR⁺sinI mutant
cheY1	3.2	7.6↓	expR mutant sinI mutant vs expR⁺sinI mutant

The fold change is based on the M value from the microarray data. Refer to Table 3.

The fold change is calculated from the Ct values obtained in the real-time PCR analyses. The experiments include 16S RNA multiplexed as an internal control.

The arrow indicates the direction of expression in the strain listed first in the “relevant comparison” column.
