“…Notably, the genes coding for flagellar structural protein (flgB and fliC), flagellar biosynthesis protein (fliH), flagellar transcriptional activator (flhD), flagellar motor switch protein (fliG) (Figure 12a), fimbrial protein (elfA/G, sfmF/H, ybgO, ycbU/V, ydeS, yehA/D, yfcP/Q/R/V, ygiL/I, and yraH/K) ((Figure 12b), and pili and flagellar-assembly chaperone (elfD, sfmC, yehC, ybgP, yfcS, yhcA, and yraI) (Figure 12c) were significantly down-regulated in response to WGHa treatment. The down-regulation of genes encoding fimbriae, pili, and flagellar proteins suggests impaired bacterial adherence, connectivity, motility, and locomotion [44,45]. However, genes encoding carboxypeptidase (dacA/B/D), dipeptidases (ddlA/B), peptidoglycan glycosyltransferase (mrcA/B), and N-acetylglucosamine and stem pentapeptide synthase (murA/B/C/D/E/F/G), which are involved in PG biosynthesis (Figure 12d), as well as the sulfatase (eptB/C), acid sugar synthesis and transfer (kdsA/B/C/D and waaA), acyl transfer (lpxA/B/D/M), and LPS synthesis and transport (lptG, rfaD, and waaC) genes in LPS biosynthesis were significantly up-regulated (Figure 12e).…”
