When we examined Salmonella infected TxWT-treated cells at 24 h, LYZ-depletion significantly increased infection relative siNT control indicating that LYZ inhibits intracellular Salmonella infections (Fig. 4H: 8 × 106 CFUs in siNT; 1.4 × 107 CFUs in siLYZ). This evidence concerns the gene LYZ and infection.
