Putative sRNAs and 5’-untranslated leaders regulated four-fold or more by OpaR.

asRNAs identified with sRNAPredict2b Not found in either databasec sRNAs identified with BSRDd Due to the qRT-PCR size and primer requirements, sRNA expression was not further validated. Only the Srr was confirmed via qRT-PCR since it was not part of one of the existing sRNA databases.e The approximate genomic location of Srr is 1354895–1355085 bp and Candidate 12 is 1776278–1776403 bp. Due to the lack of strand specific data, the location of the other sRNAs was not determined, although all sRNAs were observed in the RNA-Seq data.fRNA-Seq data is fold change of the opaR+ strain gene expression divided by the ∆opaR1 strain gene expression. Error for the ratios of normalized gene expression levels were conservatively estimated using the standard deviation ratios across the majority of genes with less than 4-fold change. The standard deviation for chromosome 1 is 1.53 and the error for chromosome 2 is 1.59.Putative sRNAs and 5’-untranslated leaders regulated four-fold or more by OpaR.
