  1. *Values were not statistically different between strains.
  2. ΨPrimers encompass 137 bp of the 5’ end of Rv0586, which are conserved in the mutant.
  3. Abbreviations: ND not determined, EEP early exponential phase, LEP late exponential phase.
  4. The values indicate the average ratios of MtΔmce2R/M. tuberculosis H37Rv or MtΔmce2R Comp/M. tuberculosis H37Rv for four independent biological replicates.
