Glycolipid and LTA analysis. (A) Comparison of glycolipid content of WT and ΔiagA GBS strains using thin-layer chromatography. SA113 is a WT S. aureus control. ELISA analysis of LTA of supernatant (S/N) (B) or whole cells (C) from WT and ΔiagA strains or whole cells in a capsule-negative genetic background (D). Supernatants or cells were analyzed at logarithmic (OD600 = 0.4) or stationary (OD600 = 2.0) phase as indicated. *P < 0.01.
