Figure 6. Effects of ΔdegP and rpoE3 mutations on RybB::LacZ (A) and CpxP::LacZ (B) activities.

For each strain, two independent cultures were grown at 39°C to a mid-log phase and used for β-galactosidase assays. LacZ activities are relative to the wild-type strain. The relevant genotypes of the strains are labeled at the bottom.
