Figure 7

Cultivating E. faecalis T2 CBS in proximity to MMH594 induced cytolysin production by T2, visible as a clear zone, (A) and bioluminescence emissions that propagated to the top of the streak (C), whereas no induction was detected when T2 CBS was cultivated near CH188 (D). The control isolate CH188 maintained its cytolysin-negative phenotype when cultivated in proximity to MMH594 (B). Experiments were performed on BHI plates supplemented with 1% (v/v) defibrinated horse blood, 1% (w/v) glucose and 0.03% (w/v) L-arginine.
