Fig. 6. Transcription of sde genes is downregulated during L. pneumophila infection of BMDMs.

Transcript abundance of indicated genes was determined during infection. PMA-differentiated U937 cells were challenged with L. pneumophila WT and RNA was extracted at the noted time points. Transcripts were normalized to 16s rRNA, and then displayed relative to transcription level measured at 1hr post-infection and represented as fold change.
