Figure 5. pmt mutant strains show growth defects at high growth temperatures.

Figure 5

Over-night cultures of wild-type, pmt mutant and corresponding reconstituted strains from serotype A (upper panel) and serotype D (lower panel) were adjusted to an OD600 of 0.1 and diluted by 10-fold serial dilutions down to a 10−4 dilution. 5 µl of each dilution step was spotted onto YPD plates, and plates were incubated at the indicated temperature for 2–3 days. Strains used were the serotype A strains H99 (wild-type), pmt1A (pmt1A::URA5), pmt4A (pmt4A::URA5), pmt1A+PMT1A (pmt1A::URA5 PMT1A-NeoR) and pmt4A+PMT4A (pmt4A::URA5 PMT4A-NeoR), and the respective serotype D strains JEC21 (wild-type), pmt1D (pmt1D::URA5), pmt4D (pmt4D::URA5), pmt1D+PMT1D (pmt1D::URA5 PMT1D-NeoR) and pmt4D+PMT4D (pmt4D::URA5 PMT4D-NeoR).
