Fig 3. Treatment with CEFT increases early φKZ binding and infection.

(A) Microscopy of uninfected and untreated infected controls, and (B) treated infected samples with 5X MIC at 5 min post-infection. Cell membrane strained with FM4-64 (red) and DNA stained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar represents 2 μm. White arrows indicate phage DNA at early stages of infection. (C) Nucleus position across P. aeruginosa host length of untreated and treated (5X MIC) infected samples. Histograms show early phage nucleus position across normalized host cell length. Scatterplots show early phage nucleus position across relative host cell length. Average cell length for each treatment condition shown.
