FIG 7.

Functional groups of genes with transcript levels with significant fold changes in the Synechocystis kpsM mutant versus the wild type. (A) Distribution by functional category of the genes identified and quantified with significant fold changes in the RNA-seq analysis. (B) Number of genes up- or downregulated in the kpsM mutant compared to the wild type by functional category. See the annotated list of genes in Table S3 in the supplemental material. Functional categories were assigned based on information available at the CyanoBase and KEGG databases. R&R, replication and repair; F&D, folding and degradation.
