| Straina | Sugarb | No. of cells scored | Cell length (avg ± SD) (μm) | No. of FtsI rings | % of cells with ring(s) | Spacing of FtsI ringsd (μm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FtsQ depletion | Arabinose | 194 | 4.2 ± 1.0 | 98 | 51 | 8.4 |
| Glucose | 123 | 14.7 ± 5.6 | 2c | 2 | 906 | |
| FtsL depletion | Arabinose | 247 | 5.4 ± 1.5 | 156 | 63 | 8.5 |
| Glucose | 130 | 20.7 ± 7.9 | 4c | 3 | 672 |
a
Strains used were EC538 for FtsQ depletion and EC607 for FtsL depletion.
b
Arabinose = inducing condition; glucose = depletion condition.
c
Faint.
d
Total length of cells (or filaments) divided by total number of FtsI rings.
