  1. Only genes with p-value < 0.05 are shown, and RNAs with unknown functions have not been included in the table. The fold-change (FC) is shown using a linear scale and not as log2. FC of the 6 h sample are also listed. Genes in an operon are clustered. In these cases the maximum and minimum FC are indicated. In the operon column the number of genes of the operon is listed between brackets. The regulon column suggests the possible regulator. The percentage shows the probability of regulation indicated by the arrow (up is activation and down is repression). A gene can be part of different regulons, however, only the regulon with the largest percentage of significantly expressed genes is shown. For some regulons the regulation directionality is not present in the Subtiwiki database. This is indicated by 0% for probability of regulation direction and the absence of an arrow
