Bacterial LPS integrity. A–D Microscopy images showing the dispersion of sm140, Rsm1, sm140∆rfbD, and Rsm1-pYA3334-rfbD bacteria after treatment with a 4% NaCl solution. Images were taken using a fluorescence microscope at 10 × 20 magnification. E Silver staining of LPS. Lane 1: protein Ladder (10 ~ 180 kDa); Lane 2: sm140; Lane 3: Rsm1; Lane 4: sm140∆rfbD; Lane 5: Rsm1-pYA3334-rfbD.
