CFU assays for Bm16M infection of RAW264.7 cells in which Bloc1s1 is nonfunctional (C), RIDD resistant (D) at the indicated h.p.i. (E) BLOS1 degradation assay during Brucella infection (upper panel) and quantification of the relative BLOS1 expression level (compared to the level of the loading control GAPDH) (lower panel) at the indicated h.p.i. ns: no significance. Here, BLOC1S1 is linked to infection.
