FIG 3.
(A to H) DIC and fluorescence micrographs of MRSA LAC-FChP3GFP cells treated as described in the legend for panels A to H in Fig. 2. (I) Localization of PBP3 (green) and FtsZ (red) is schematically depicted, with the numbered arrows in the scheme reflecting the correspondingly numbered arrows in the florescence micrographs. Scale bars for panels A to H represent 2 μm. (J) Bar graph showing the prevalence of the various FtsZ and PBP3 phenotypes observed in both vehicle-treated cells (n = 545) and TXA707-treated cells (n = 326). Each percentage reflects an average of 5 different fields of view, with the number of cells in each field of view ranging from 48 to 136. The indicated error bars reflect the standard deviation from the mean. The statistical significance of differences in the FtsZ and PBP3 phenotypes were analyzed as described in the legend to Fig. 1.
