Figure 8. Protein secretion via the vT3SS in a catalytically-inactive ATPase mutant strain is rescued by deletion of atpA.

Figure 8

Secretion of the Spi1 vT3SS substrate InvJ or a 3×HA tagged InvJ variant. (A) Secreted InvJ protein in the wildtype, ΔinvJ, ΔatpA, the catalytically-inactive Spi1 ATPase invCK165E, invCK165E ΔatpA, invCK165E ΔflgM, and invCK165E ΔflgM ΔfliHIJ ΔssaN ΔatpA mutant strains. Detection of DnaK protein was included as a cell lysis control. (B) Levels of secreted InvJ::3×HA protein in the wildtype, ΔinvJ::3×HA, ΔinvJ::3×HA ΔatpA, ΔinvJ::3×HA invCK165E, and ΔinvJ::3×HA invCK165E ΔatpA mutant strains. 288 ng BSA was added to each supernatant fractions (except for lane 2) and served as a precipitation control. DnaK protein served as a cell lysis control.
