Induction of capsule production by IPTG in S. aureus Newman-132. CP5 was labelled by immunofluorescence (CY3, green), the cells were stained using DAPI (blue). Cells were grown for 6 h in MH medium at 37°C. a) S. aureus Newman (control) b) S. aureus Newman in the presence of 0.5 mM IPTG; c) S. aureus Newman-132 harbouring pMUTIN4 in the capsule promoter in the absence of IPTG and d) S. aureus Newman-132 harbouring pMUTIN4 in the capsule promoter after induction with IPTG.
