Table 3.

A table listing the GO-terms and genes in Figure 6A. It represents the multiple upregulated cellular processes and genes in yeast exposed to 10 µg/mL CdSe/ZnS QDs. All genes incorporated in this table exhibited expression levels significantly higher than expression levels of NTC samples.

Upregulated GO-Terms (CdSe/ZnS)	Genes in Figure 6A
Transmembrane transport/cellular homeostasis	YHK8, PDR5, and PDR15
Vacuole acidification	VMA2 and VMA16
Amino acid metabolic activity	ARG5, ARO8, ARG6, LEU1, LEU4, LEU9, and LYS1/9
Protein folding	KAR2 and EUG1
Trafficking within the trans-Golgi network	VPS41 and SNX41
