  1. a Proteins were detected in bacteria subcultured 4, 6 or 8 (4 P, 6 P, 8 P) times after transformation in axenic medium (4, 6 or 8 passages). For Mcapmreb1-5-fib 4 P (clones 8-7 and 32-1), two biological replicates were analyzed. Values are expressed as mean ± SD, with three technical replicates for each clone carrying a combination of cytoskeleton genes. The absence of MreB and Fib in Mcapcontrol was checked on two technical replicates. ND: Not detected.
