FIG 5.
Effects of single AHL treatment on transcription of vcpA, vcpB, and vcpR in V. coralliilyticus RE22Sm. Expression of vcpR (A), vcpB (B), and vcpA (C) determined by qRT-PCR analysis of V. coralliilyticus RE22Sm treated with individual AHLs (at their own IC50) for 15 min during late-logarithmic-phase growth (∼108 CFU/ml). Data are representative of two independent experiments. Each value is the average from three replicates. Error bars represent one standard deviation.
