Fig. 7. Phagocytosis of different particles by lvsA and lvsB
mutant cells. Cells were incubated for 1 hour with the indicated particles.
The amount of internalized fluorescence was determined by FACS. The results
are expressed as a percentage of the internalization by wild-type cells in the
same experiment. The indicated values are the mean and standard deviation of
seven independent experiments. Beads, latex beads, K.a., Klebsiella
aerogenes, E. coli, Escherichia coli, P.a., Pneumophila aeruginosa, S.b.,
Streptococcus bovis.
