Figure 4

Influence of heme-uptake systems on A. baumannii susceptibility to GaPPIX. (A) Schematic representation of the two gene clusters for heme uptake, hemT and hemO, of A. baumannii ACICU. Coding sequences are shown as arrows (not to scale) oriented according to the predicted direction of transcription. (B) Top; presence (+) or absence (-) of heme clusters in different A. baumannii strains (++, overexpression from the multicopy plasmid pVRL1hemO). Middle; GaPPIX disk diffusion assay in RPMI-HS agar plates inoculated with different A. baumannii strains. Bottom; MICs of GaPPIX for different A. baumannii strains in RPMI-HS.
