Interaction network of the genes found downregulated in MG1655::ϕO104. The list of genes found downregulated (n = 69) in MG1655::ϕO104 in comparison to naive MG1655 was analyzed using the STRING database of protein-protein interactions. The network summarizes the predicted associations for the proteins encoded by the upregulates genes detected in our analysis. The network nodes are the proteins and the edges represent the predicted functional associations. The thickness of the line indicates the degree of confidence prediction of the interaction. The genes encode proteins involved in the assimilation of: (i) galactose; (ii.) D-serine; (iii.) sialic acid; (iv.) L-lactate; (v) maltose; (vi.) sorbitol; (vii.) glycerol; as well as (viii.) components of the galactitol-specific PTS enzyme II; (ix.) C4-dicarboxylate transporter; (x.) dehydrogenase of the proline degradation pathway; (xi.) proteins of the pyruvate metabolism; and (xii.) subunits of the NADH dehydrogenase I
