At later time points investigating S. aureus intracellular survival by infecting the cells with the HG001-GFP strain, we demonstrated that a higher percentage of host cells was infected 1 h post-infection than 3 h post-infection, with a significantly higher rate of infected cells in LRSAM1-deficient than in NTC cells (Figures 1D, E). Here, LRSAM1 is linked to infection.
