Hypoxic survival of M. tuberculosis H37Rv usp mutants. The Mtb tandem domain usp mutants were cultured to hypoxic stationary phase and survival followed for 130 days. The viability (CFUs) was measured at several time-points to determine if the mutants possess any survival defect under these conditions. Error bars represent the standard deviations of 3 independent cultures.
