a

RCN, reference common name.

b

—, no reference common name/orthologous gene.

c

Italics indicate genes organized in an operon. Asterisks indicate the presence of one or more predicted Zur binding sites.

d

q value of differentially expressed genes in MSMEGwt versus MSMEGΔsmtB calculated by Rockhopper analysis. A q value of <0.01 is considered significant.

e

Gene expression values of MSMEGΔsmtB and MSMEGΔsmtBΔzur (ΔΔ) divided by gene expression values of MSMEGwt from RNA-Seq as well as results from transcriptome analysis after TPEN and ZnSO4 treatment.

f

Putative function based on NCBI blastx analysis or the TB database. Values in brackets () show differential expression <4 of genes, which belong to the same operon.
