Monitoring of the L. monocytogenes response to osmotic stress with the Plmo2230::egfp reporter fusion. (A) SigB activity measured as expression of the reporter fusion Plmo2230::egfp, engineered from the SigB-regulated gene lmo2230. Reporter expression was measured after 30 min incubation in BHI medium containing 0.5 M NaCl. Shown are data representative of a total of three biological replicates. (B) Mean fluorescence intensity quantified in wild-type and DsigB strains in unstress and stress conditions. ***, P < 0.0005 (one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test). (C) Quantification of the proportion of the bacterial population positive for eGFP levels in the indicated conditions.
