TMD-exchanged versions of EscS associate with the T3SS complex. Membrane protein extracts of ΔescD carrying pEscD-V5 alone or in combination with pEscSwt-HA, pEscS-TMD1ex-HA, or pEscS-TMD2ex-HA, were incubated in BN sample buffer and then subjected to BN-PAGE (upper panel), SDS-PAGE (lower panel) and western blot analysis using anti-V5 and anti-HA antibodies. (Upper panel) BN-PAGE analysis showed that while the EscD-V5 protein migrated mainly as a large complex at the top of the gel, the EscS WT and the exchanged TMD-versions migrated both as large and small protein complexes. (Lower panel) To confirm similar EscS and EscD expression among the samples, membrane protein extracts were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis using anti-HA and anti-V5 antibodies. Similar protein expression levels were observed.
