Abstract | Abstract Environmental perturbations impact multiple cellular traits, including gene expression. Bacteria respond to these stressful situations through complex gene interaction networks, thereby inducing stress tolerance and survival of cells. In this paper, we study the response mechanisms of E. coli when exposed to different environmental stressors via differential expression and co-expression analysis. Gene co-expression networks were generated and analyzed via Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA). Based on the gene co-expression networks, genes with similar expression profiles were clustered into modules. The modules were analysed for identification of hub genes, enrichment of biological processes and transcription factors. In addition, we also studied the link between transcription factors and their differentially regulated targets to understand the regulatory mechanisms involved. These networks validate known gene interactions and provide new insights into genes mediating transcriptional regulation in specific stress environments, thus allowing for in silico hypothesis generation. |
