Fig. 5

Transcriptional reorganization presented by means of selected metabolic pathways and processes. Heat-map of time course profiles of transcripts (log2 fold change) encoding designated proteins involved in chemotaxis, glucose uptake, central carbon and energy metabolism, stress responses and anabolic processes. Time zero indicates the time point of the glucose pulse. Gene names are given to the left. The four distinct metabolic phases indicated on top of the heat-map are as specified in Fig. 1. Box colors indicate transcriptional down- (green), no (yellow) and up-regulation (red) of genes after glucose addition. Box numbers correspond to log2 fold transcript changes. More details including extended datasets and pathway maps are found in Additional files 1 and 2
