SigT-dependent carbon starvation regulon.

Genes with reduced or increased expression in the ΔsigT strain upon 15 min of carbon starvation, with respect to the NA1000 wild type strain under the same conditions. SigT-dependency under osmotic stress is according to [28]. Upregulation by exposure to multiple heavy metals corresponds to genes upregulated by two or more metals according to [29]. Genes annotated as No(*) in the ‘sigT motif’ column correspond to cases where the sigT motif is found upstream of an adjacent gene as part of a putative operon (CC_0284 and CC_0285; CC_1179 and CC_1178; CC_0162, CC_0163 and CC_0164). COG groups: K = Transcription; T = Signal transduction mechanisms; E = Amino acid transport and metabolism; Q = Secondary metabolites biosynthesis; P = Inorganic ion transport and metabolism; S = Function unknown; R = General function prediction only; M = Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis; N = Cell motility; D = Cell cycle control; NC = Not classified.
