How can you use “acta” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
prfA mutant bacteria could still be seen associated with cells by phase-contrast microscopy at 4 hours post-infection (Figure 1d), albeit at much lower levels than wild-type or actA bacteria as they were no longer replicating.
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].
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.
The actA internal in-frame deletion mutant (DP-L1942) [ 30], which cannot initiate the polymerization of actin, was used to assess transcriptional responses specific to the motility phase of infection.
The three measurements of log 2 (Caco-2 T 0 /reference) from the parallel set were averaged to define the pattern of expression in uninfected cells at the beginning of the synchronized parallel time course, and was then used to zero transform the mock, wild-type, actA and prfA parallel infections.
