Fig 4. Caf mutants attempt to coil as often as their WT siblings.

Fig 4

There is no significant difference between the number of full coils and the number of full and partial coils completed by WT sibs, indicating that nearly all of the coiling attempts completed by WT sibs result in a full coil (WT Sibs (full coils): 11.86 ± 0.7253, n = 44; WT Sibs (full and partial coils): 12.02 ±0.6962, n = 44; p = 0.9975). As expected, cafs perform significantly less full coils (1.917 ± 0.7633, n = 12) compared to the number of full coils completed by WT sibs (p<0.0001) and the number of full and partial coils completed by WT sibs (p<0.0001). However, when the number of partial coiling attempts by caf mutants is combined with their full coils (9.083 ± 1.158, n = 12), their coiling attempts are restored to WT levels when compared to WT full coils (p = 0.2084) and WT full and partial coils (p = 0.1633).
