Analysis of zinc transporter mutants. (A to C) Growth of S. sanguinis SK36 with P. aeruginosa PAO1 wild-type and indicated mutant strains in coculture. The strains tested carry deletion mutations in the cntI (A), znuA (B) and cntI-O (C) genes of P. aeruginosa PAO1. (D and E) Growth of S. sanguinis SK36 (D) and P. aeruginosa wild-type and ΔzurA mutant strains (E) in coculture assays in MEM (no added zinc) or with 10 μM added zinc (growth-inhibitory level of zinc). ANOVA with a Tukey’s multiple-comparison test was used for statistical analysis (**, P < 0.01) in panel D. There were no significant differences in panel E. SK36, S. sanguinis SK36; PAO1, P. aeruginosa PAO1.
