Expression level of genes csuA/B, A1S_2091, A1S_1510, A1S_0690, and ompA in A. baumannii ATCC 17978 and its mutant derivative 17978 Δ0114.
| Genea | ATCC 17978 | 17978 Δ0114 | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| csuA/B | 0.36 ± 0.14 | 1.81 ± 0.40 | 0.004 |
| A1S_2091 | 2.64 ± 0.41 | 0.22 ± 0.04 | 0.0005 |
| A1S_1510 | 0.86 ± 0.10 | 0.56 ± 0.04 | 0.0085 |
| A1S_0690 | 8.48 ± 0.92 | 3.07 ± 0.38 | 0.0007 |
| ompA | 1.23 ± 0.14 | 0.76 ± 0.08 | 0.0071 |
a
The expression level of each gene was determined with respect to the expression level of recA, which was defined as 1.
Values are means ± standard deviation. P-values indicate significant differences as determined by a Student's t-test.
