Fig 8. Synthesis of OPS and SMC in T. vaginalis and T. foetus.

Fig 8

Cell extracts prepared after 2, 6 and 20 h growth at 37°C in media containing 100% D-[U-13C6] glucose were analysed by LC-MS. Graphs show the mean peak intensities of 3-carbon labelled isotopologues from 3 biological replicates (± SD). (A) 13C labelled SMC in cell extracts; (B) total SMC levels in media samples; (C) 13C labelled OPS in cell extracts; (D), total OPS levels in media samples. Complete, uninfected or complete media control; TvagSPT, spent media sample from T. vaginalis cultures; TfoeSPT, spent media from T. foetus cultures.
