Figure 7. Adherence of the mgtC mutant on J774 macrophages and internalization in HeLa cells.

Figure 7

(A) Adherence of the mgtC mutant strain to J774 macrophages after a 3-hr period of infection at 4°C, as compared to the WT strain. Results are normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain and expressed as means+SD from three independent experiments. (B) J774 macrophage internalization of the WT, the mgtC mutant and the complemented strains after a 3-hr period of infection in the presence of cytochalasin D (10 µg/ml). Results are normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain and expressed as means+SD from three independent experiments. (C) Internalization of the mgtC mutant and complemented strains in HeLa cells. The wbbl2 mutant strain is included as a positive control. Results are normalized to 100% for the wild-type strain and expressed as means+SD from four independent experiments. Asterisks indicate statistical significance (* P<0.05).
