The metacaspase casA has no role in PHS-induced apoptosis. We assayed DNA condensation (A) and DNA fragmentation (B) in the presence or absence of casA. Spores of a wild-type (wt) strain and a casAΔ strain were germinated, treated with PHS, and then processed for DAPI and TUNEL staining as described in the legend to Fig. 3.
