Oxidative and nitrostative challenge assays.

<p>A) Oxidative stress response of <i>phoB</i>^KP mutant by disc assay. The <i>phoB</i>^KP mutant displayed greater sensitivity to 30% H₂O₂ (inhibition zone = 32.5±0.5 mm) than the wild-type (inhibition zone = 33±1.0 mm). B) The data is the means of measurements made in triplicate. *, Significant difference (P<0.05, Student t test). B) Effect of SNP (10 mM) on growth kinetics of WT and Δ<i>phoB</i>^KP. C) Effect of NaNO₂ (10 mM) on growth profile of WT and Δ<i>phoB</i>^KP.
