Figure 11. Activity assays using a select Ubac2 splice variant protein as exogenous additives to bacteria and yeast cells.
( A) Recombinant splice variant proteins At1g25290 (L) and one Ubac2 were tested for activity (for enhanced sensitivity to ampicillin in this panel) as exogenous additives and bacteria. The assays were conducted in the same manner as that shown in Figure 8 (from untreated to mock to added proteins). Cells (resulting colonies) surviving the different treatments were then assessed and represented as Percent Survival. The key results comparing the splice variants At1g25290 (L) and Ubac2 are shown in this panel. The error bars represent standard deviations (n=4, T-test, P=0.1). ( B) Recombinant At1g25290 splice variant protein L and Ubac2 were also tested for activity (for enhanced sensitivity to nystatin in this panel) as exogenous additives and yeast. The assays were conducted in the same manner as that shown in Figure 9 (from untreated to mock to added proteins). The organization of panel B of this figure is the same as in its panel A, except for yeast and nystatin. The error bars represent standard deviations (n=4, T-test, P=0.1).
