Figure 4. Contribution of vraE and sasF to virulence.
A Effect of WT SH1000 (open box) and mutations of vraE (vertical hatched box) and sasF (diagonal hatched box) on percentage change in weight of infected mice. *p<0.05, **p<0.01 by Dunn's test. B Effect of mutations of vraE (closed triangle) and sasF (closed inverted triangle) on cfu of S. aureus SH1000 (closed box) in kidneys of infected mice.
