We repeated the experiments carrying out parallel 4-hour time courses simultaneously for mock infections, wild-type (10403S), Δ actA (DP-L1942) and Δ prfA (DP-L1075), with time points taken at 0, 60, 120 and 240 minutes after infection.
To this end, we carried out similar 8-hour time courses with an isogenic L. monocytogenes strain deficient in actA (DP-L1942, Δ actA ), which is unable to nucleate actin polymerization and hence has no capacity for intracellular motility and intercellular spread [ 30].
For the actA analysis, the wild-type and prfA were grouped as a single class.
Detailed comparisons of the response to wild-type and actA mutant infections were designed to uncover gene-expression programs specific to the motility phase of the infection, when bacterially directed actin polymerization is induced to move the bacteria through the cytoplasm.
The prfA gene codes for a transcriptional regulator, which controls the virulence genes hly, plcA, plcB, mpl and actA , as well as negatively regulating itself [ 31, 32].
