Figure 3. Variable effects of Mtb VapC expression on growth and viability of wild type Mtb in liquid culture.

Figure 3

A, B, C: Growth was assessed spectrophotometrically for a period of 6 days after induction of gene expression, as described under Materials and Methods. Open symbols represent ATc-induced samples and filled symbols represent uninduced controls. The results show the data from one of three independent experiments. D, E, F: Viability was assessed by enumerating CFU. Open bars, CFU prior to induction of gene expression (day 0); black bars, untreated control (day 3); and striped bars, ATc-treated culture (day 3). The results show the average CFU values from duplicate platings at one serial dilution from one of three independent experiments.
