Fig. 6: L. mexicana V-ATPase mutants are viable as promastigotes.

A Schematic of V-ATPase subunits identified in L. mexicana, coloured by the genotype of the corresponding mutants. B Gene IDs of L. mexicana V-ATPase subunits. C Barcode proportions of mutants after 24 h of exponential growth in culture. Mutants were grouped into the following categories: ‘All mutants’ represent all non-V-ATPase transporter mutants in the pool (dark grey dots); ‘Controls’ represent the barcoded parental controls (SBL1-5, turquoise dots) and control mutants Δdihydroorotase (light grey dot), ΔIFT88 (white dot) and ΔMBO2 (black dot); ‘V-ATPase components‘ are shown as red dots. Each dot represents the average barcode proportion for one mutant cell line after 24 h (normalised to 0 h). The source data are provided in Supplementary Data 4.
