Figure 1. Expression of type 1 fimbrial operon and the associated phenotype in the wild-type (WT, χ3761), Δlrp (χ9411), and lrpC (χ9448) strains.

Figure 1

(A) β-galactosidase assay for the PfimA-lacZ fusions in each strain is shown. *, P<0.05 (B) Mannose-sensitive yeast agglutination assay to assess type 1 fimbriae synthesis. Representative images from several experiments are shown. Bacterial cells were statically grown in LB broth for 24 h at 37°C.
