FIG 7.
UQ8 contributes to later steps of infection of G. mellonella by F. novicida. (A) The larvae turn gray/black when infected. (B) Survival curve of G. mellonella infected with either F. novicida (F.n.) or the transposon mutant of ubiCFn (Tn-ubiCFn). ****, P < 0.0001 (by a log rank [Mantel-Cox] test). (C) Survival curve of G. mellonella infected with F. novicida pretreated or not with 3A4HB (1 mM final concentration). Each group of G. mellonella larvae (n = 20) was injected with ∼106 CFU/larva, and PBS injection was used as a control. n.s. (not significant), P = 0.6670 (by a log rank [Mantel-Cox] test).
