Supplementary Information
Supplementary information (a) (b) Figure S1. Resistant (a) and sensitive (b) gene scores plotted against subsystems involved in cell regulation. The small circles represent the individual hits and the large circles represent the mean of each subsystem. Each individual score signifies the mean of 12 trials – three biological and four technical. The p-value was calculated as a two-tailed t-test and significance was determined using the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure; false discovery rate was selected to be 0.1. Plots constructed using Pathway Tools, Omics Dashboard. Figure S2. Connectivity map displaying the predicted functional associations between the silver-resistant gene hits; disconnected gene hits not shown. The thicknesses of the lines indicate the degree of confidence prediction for the given interaction, based on fusion, co-occurrence, experimental and co-expression data.

Biosynthesis and Function of Modified Bases in Bacteria and Their Viruses

Review pubs.acs.org/CR Biosynthesis and Function of Modified Bases in Bacteria and Their Viruses Peter Weigele Chemical Biology, New England Biolabs, Ipswich, Massachusetts 01938, United States Elisabeth A. Raleigh* Research, New England Biolabs, Ipswich, Massachusetts 01938, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Naturally occurring modification of the canonical A, G, C, and T bases can be found in the DNA of cellular organisms and viruses from all domains of life. Bacterial viruses (bacteriophages) are a particularly rich but still underexploited source of such modified variant nucleotides. The modifications conserve the coding and base-pairing functions of DNA, but add regulatory and protective functions. In prokaryotes, modified bases appear primarily to be part of an arms race between bacteriophages (and other genomic parasites) and their hosts, although, as in eukaryotes, some modifications have been adapted to convey epigenetic information. The first half of this review catalogs the identification and diversity of DNA modifications found in bacteria and bacteriophages. What is known about the biogenesis, context, and function of these modifications are also described. The second part of the review places these DNA modifications in the context of the arms race between bacteria and bacteriophages. It focuses particularly on the defense and counter-defense strategies that turn on direct recognition of the presence of a modified base. Where modification has been shown to affect other DNA transactions, such as expression and chromosome segregation, that is summarized, with reference to recent reviews. -

STUDIES ON THE PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISM SYNECHOCYSTIS PCC6803 AND HOW IT RESPONDS TO THE EFFECTS OF SALT STRESS BY BRADLEY LYNN POSTIER Bachelor of Science Oklahoma State University Stillwater, OK 1996 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December, 2003 STUDIES ON THE PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISM SYNECHOCYSTIS PCC6803 AND HOW IT RESPONDS TO THE EFFECTS OF SALT STRESS Thesis approved: Dean of the Graduate College 11 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would first like to thank my wife Sheridan for all of her support and motivation. Without her, I may have never even attempted graduate school. Since I met her in 1994, she has been everything I could ask for. I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you and our as of yet unborn son. I would also like to acknowledge all the work and effort put forth by my advisor - Dr. Burnap. Rob made every possible effort to support my research financially. He guided my intellectual'maturation throughout my experience here. I don't think anyone else could have shown the patience necessary to help me achieve my goals. I am truly appreciative for what he has helped me achieve and hope that some day I can do the same for other students working under me. To my parents, I would like to say thank you for all the great support guidance and memories. Y cm have been very supportive through all my years in school, allowing me to make all of the important decisions myself, good or bad. -
