Genetic interactions between bamA, bamB, bamC, and bamE mutants

	bamB8		ΔbamC		ΔbamE::cam
bamA allele	30 °C	37 °C	30 °C	37 °C	30 °C	37 °C
bamA+	+++	+++	+++	+++	+++	+++
bamAE373A	++	−	+++	+++	−	−
bamAE373A+Q693P	++	++	ND	ND	−	−
bamAE373A+C690S+C700S	+++	+++	ND	ND	−	−

Growth of each strain on LB agar plates at the indicated temperature was scored after incubation overnight. Strains were scored on the following scale: +++, normal growth; ++, intermediate growth; +, weak growth; −, no growth; ND, not determined. The results shown are from a representative experiment.
