Aspergillus fumigatus melanin inhibits acidification of cellular compartments. Tracking of acidification inside cellular compartments containing Cy-pHer5e-labeled conidia (CC). Wild-type A. niger and A. fumigatus and of white strains (AN_white and AF_white). pH calibration curve of AF-CC (A), AF_white-CC (C), AN-CC (E), and AN_white-CC (G) and total fluorescence in time of AF-CC (B), AF_white-CC (D), AN-CC (F), and AN_white-CC (H). Values are expressed as the mean of the corrected total fluorescence (CTCF). Bars represent standard error of the mean. ^∗Indicates significant difference. Data obtained from three separate experiments analyzing at least 100 conidia per condition were analyzed.
