BPSS2185 is required for B. pseudomallei twitching motility. (a) Agar plate images showing twitching motility of the strains at 48 h. No halo was observed for JW270 ΔBPSS2185. The twitching motility phenotype of JW270 ∆BPSS2185 was partially complemented by pBHR2-BPSS2185, but not pBHR2. (b) Graph showing distance twitched by each strain represented in Fig. 3(a). Twitching motility is measured as the diameter of the halo (cm). Bars are an average of three independent experiments. Error bars are the standard error of means.
