Three-dimensional (3D) wavelet power spectrum of the transcriptional signal. The wavelet power spectrum from 100 to 1,000 kb in wild-type E. coli cells grown in LB and treated with norfloxacin at 10 μg/ml for (a) 0 min, (b) 10 min, (c) 30 min and (d) in the gyrA (D82G) mutant grown in LB without a drug. The analysis was performed in AutoSignal 1.6 using the Morlet wavelet as the basis with the randomized set showing no significant pattern at 95% (magenta) confidence level. The significant wavelet components are represented as parts of a power spectral density (PSD) plot, where power is calculated as the space (time in standard notations)-integral squared amplitude (TISA). Our model assumes white background noise.
