Fig. 7

The effect of aceE deficiency on lipids composition of mycobacterium. Lipids were quantitated by LC-MS. a. The lipids composition other than mycolic acid of WT, aceE-mut and Comp strain; b. The mycolic acid composition of WT, aceE-mut and Comp strain. (**, P < 0.01); c. Only the components with significant difference in expression between aceE-mut and WT [and complementary (Comp)] strains were shown in the diagram (One Way ANOVA with Tukey’s HSD correction). Data are depicted as mean values and standard deviations from one experiment performed in quadruplicate (n = 4). CL, cardiolipins; PE, phosphatidylethanolamines; PI, phosphatidylinositols; AC1PIM2, Monoacylated Phosphatidylinositol Dimannoside; PA, phosphatidic acids; PG, phosphatidylglycerols; MA, mycolic acids
