Differential expression and gene ontology analyses of proteomes of C. albicans biofilms when exposed to Gram-negative and Gram-positive heat-killed bacteria. (A) Schematic illustration of differences in cell wall components between Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components that are significantly lower in Candida biofilm exposed to (B) Gram-negative bacteria or (C) Gram-positive bacteria (p-value < 0.05). The protein expression levels were represented in p-value using different colors: yellow (least significant) to orange (most significant). The white circles describe the 3 distinct aspects of how gene functions can be described: molecular function, cellular component, and biological process.
