  1. a Data are expressed in log2 ratios of Cy5(cranberry-treated)/Cy3(untreated control); see material and methods.
  2. b Up (+) or down (−) expression of the indicated gene by exposure to daptomycin (DAP), vancomycin (VAN) or oxacillin (OXA), as reported by Muthaiyan et al. [29]; the equal sign (=) indicates genes that were not affected.
  3. c Up (+) or down (−) expression of the indicated gene by exposure to oxacillin (O), bacitracin (B) and D-cycloserine (C) as reported by Utaida et al. [30]; the equal sign (=) indicates genes that were not affected.
  4. d The plus sign (+) indicates genes known to be regulated by the two-component response regulator VraSR following a cell wall stress [42].
  5. e To avoid repetition, the fold modulation of genes arranged in operons is represented as an average for the indicated gene set.
