Gene expression of S. aureus agrA, saeR, and hla when exposed to 50, 100, or 300 ng mycolactone concentrations over time. (A–C) agrA regulation at 3H, 6H, and 24H, respectively. (D–F) saeR regulation at 3H, 6H, and 24H, respectively. (G–I) hla expression at 3H, 6H, and 24H respectively. Regulation was measured for all genes against the aroE housekeeping gene.
