Figure 4From: Physiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in biofilms as revealed by transcriptome analysisDiscrimination of glucose metabolism (A) and homoserine lactone quorum sensing (B) based on differences in transcript ranks. Open symbols are glucose-absent or quorum sensing negative comparators in panels A and B, respectively. Filled symbols are glucose-present and quorum sensing positive comparators in panels A and B, respectively. Stars indicate drip-flow biofilm samples. The genes appearing in these graphs are annotated as: PA5564, gidB, glucose inhibited division protein B; PA3187, probable ATP-binding component of ABC transporter; PA2634, aceA, isocitrate lyase; PA3186, glucose/carbohydrate outer membrane porin OprB precursor; PA0485, conserved hypothetical protein; PA3724, lasB, elastase; PA3281, hypothetical protein; rhlA, rhamnosyltransferase chain A.Back to article page
