TLC of [3H]GlcNAc-lipids from in vitro incubations of GAS and GBS membranes with UDP-[3H]GlcNAc. Membrane fractions from WT MGAS5005 (A) or GBS COH1 (B) were incubated with UDP-[3H]GlcNAc and analyzed for [3H]GlcNAc-lipid synthesis by TLC. Reaction mixtures were exactly as described in the legend to Fig. 3. After 5 min of incubation with UDP-[3H]GlcNAc, reactions were processed for GlcNAc-lipid synthesis as described under “Experimental procedures.” The organic layers were dried and dissolved in a small volume of CHCl3/CH3OH (2:1), and a portion was removed and assayed for radioactivity by liquid scintillation spectrometry. The remainder was spotted on 10 × 20-cm plate of Silica Gel G and developed in CHCl3/CH3OH/NH4OH/H2O (65:25:1:4). [3H]GlcNAc-lipids were detected by scanning with an AR2000 Bioscan Radiochromatoscanner. AU, arbitrary units. The results are representative of three separate experiments.
