Table 2 Representation of the COG categories within the genetic context of the genes encoding Sigma-54 and its EBP54s and of the promoters.

From: Comparative analyses imply that the enigmatic sigma factor 54 is a central controller of the bacterial exterior

  1. Over-representation of a particular COG category (with respect to the reference; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/COG/old/) within at least half of the analyzed phyla/classes is indicated by +. The categories that were over-represented in more than two genetic contexts are indicated in bold. The functional categories that are not relevant because they are either non-specific (R, S) or mostly specific for eukaryotes (B, W, Y, Z) are not shown.
