From: Growth of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis in human plasma: impacts on virulence and metabolic gene expression

Figure 2

Medium-dependent differential expression of genes coding for enzymes putatively involved in Y. pseudotuberculosis glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle). Significant (p < 0.05) upshifts (yellow to red scale) or downshifts (blue scale) in individual gene transcription levels in human plasma versus LB is indicated by the color scale bar. Open boxes indicate genes whose expression levels did not vary significantly (p > 0.05). Although considered as not significant by statistical analysis of macroarray data (p = 0.053), transcriptional upregulation of aceB in human plasma was confirmed by qRT-PCR. Abbreviations: Ac-CoA: acetyl coenzyme A; PEP: phosphoenolpyruvate. Mean fold changes in transcription and p-values are indicated in Table 2.
