Figure 4From: Binding and activation of host plasminogen on the surface of Francisella tularensisPLG binds to the outer envelope of FT. Laser scanning confocal microscopy of PLG-associated FTLVS was performed as described in "Materials and Methods". Bound huPLG ligand was detected using sheep anti-human PLG antibody followed by incubation with Dylight-488 conjugated donkey, anti-sheep/goat IgG secondary antibody. Samples were visualized using a Zeiss LSM 510 confocal microscope.Back to article page
