Tetrameric DC-SIGN contributes to more membrane tethers per retraction. (A,B) Averaged FD-curves of CHO cells expressing DC-SIGN-WT, DC-SIGN-N80A, DC-SIGN-ΔCRD, and DC-SIGN-ΔRep (N ≥ 20 cells) were generated by averaging N ≥ 100 FD-curves. For averaging, FD-curves were aligned on the maximum detachment peak (A) or on the 2 nN position (B). (C) The number of membrane tether rupture events observed per retraction of a C. albicans cell being detached from a CHO cell expressing either DC-SIGN-WT, DC-SIGN-N80A, DC-SIGN-ΔCRD, or DC-SIGN-ΔRep (N ≥ 20 cells; N ≥ 100 FD-curves). Data are presented as means ± S.D.
