ycfR in E. coli o157:h7

figure 2A shows that a deletion in the ycfR gene leads to increased chlorine sensitivity compared to the wild-type strain

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028s

Protein: barA

According to figure 2, salmonella typhimurium strain 14028s mutants of barA showed reduced biofilm formation when compared to wild type strain

Protein: flhC

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028 As shown in Figure 2, flhC mutants of Salmonella typhimurium 14028 showed increased biofilm formation when compared to the wild type strain.

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028s

Protein: motA

According to figure 2, salmonella typhimurium stran 14028s mutants lacking motA exhibited lower biofilm formation than the wild type strain. Mutants did not colonize surfaces above or below the meniscus, and formed only a thin ring on the meniscus

Protein: flhD

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028 As shown in Figure 2, flhD mutants of Salmonella typhimurium 14028 showed increased biofilm formation when compared to the wild type strain.

Protein: fliA

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028 As shown in Figure 2, fliA mutants of Salmonella typhimurium 14028 showed increased biofilm formation when compared to the wild type strain.

Protein: sirA

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain 14028 As shown in Figure 2, sirA mutants of Salmonella typhimurium 14028 showed decreased biofilm formation when compared to the wild type strain.

Protein: ycfR

Organism: Salmonella enterica serovar Saintpaul strain 99A3746

As shown in Figure 4 and Table 2, ycfR mutants of Salmonella enterica serovar Saintpaul showed decreased attachment to glass surface when compared to the wild type strain (P=0.035).

Protein: yigG

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 yigG mutants showed a significant decrease (P=0.0003) in attachment to polystyrene when compared to attachment of the wild type strain (Figure 4 & Table 2)

Protein: ycfR

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 A significant decrease in attachment to glass and polystyrene was observed in Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 ycfR mutants when compared to attachment of the wild type strain (Figure 4 & Table 2)
