Fig 9. Reactivity of anti-HmuY antibodies with bacteria.

Fig 9

ELISA was carried out using antibodies raised against purified HmuY protein (anti-HmuY 1) and P. gingivalis wild-type (A7436 and ATCC 33277) and hmuY mutant (TO4) strains. Bacteria were cultured in high iron/heme (A) or low-iron/heme (B) media. No reactivity was observed for anti-HmuY 1–1 (epitope 1), anti-HmuY 1–2 (epitope 2), or anti-HmuY 1–3 (epitope 3) antibodies. Live bacteria were used as antigens.
