BACE1 activity is increased and ADAM10 activity is decreased in Chlamydia pneumoniae infected astrocytes. FRET-based assays were used to quantify the activity of ADAM10 and BACE1 enzyme activity generated by Cpn-infected and uninfected cell lysates at 48 hpi. Fluorescence of the 5-FAM or HiLyte Fluor 488 dyes conjugated to ADAM10 or BACE1-specific substrates was detected as a result of cleavage by the respective enzymes and compared back to fluorescence intensity of known dye concentrations. The quantified dye concentration from ADAM10 and BACE1 fluorescent substrate cleavage from (N = 4) biological replicates of Cpn-infected and uninfected cell lysates is presented as an average in the histograms. Error bars represent standard error of the mean. Asterisk represents p < 0.05
