Tob55 cannot rescue E. coli cells depleted for BamA.
E. coli wildtype cells harboring the plasmid for AHTC-inducible expression of the indicated constructs (open circles), and E. coli BamA-depleted strain grown under non-permissive conditions harboring either a plasmid for inducible expression of the indicated constructs (filled triangles) or an empty vector as control (asterisks) were grown in liquid culture and the OD600 was monitored over time. Sharp drops in the OD600 of the various strains indicate the time points when the growing cells were diluted into fresh medium. A letter code of the relevant variant and its scheme are shown above each experiment.
