Fig. 8: A galactose analog inhibits pneumococcal growth when galactose is the carbohydrate source.
From: Environmental and genetic regulation of Streptococcus pneumoniae galactose catabolic pathways
We tested the impact of the Gal-3F analog on pneumococcal growth. Pneumococci were grown either in the presence of glucose (A) or galactose (B) with different concentrations of Gal-3F. The mean of at least three biological replicates with their SEM is given. Statistical analysis was performed using One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, ‘ns’ not significant, ****p < 0.0001. C Gal3-F impact on the induction of PlacA::luc and PgalK::luc in different culture media with or without galactose (Gal). The least to the highest induction was represented with colors in the following order: purple, blue, green, and yellow/orange. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
