D: Constitutive expression of Ubc9 D100A affects cellgrowth. 103 cells were plated per 10 cm plate and cultivated for 10 days in 20% or 5% O2 incubators. Subsequently, cells were colored using crystal violet. The area of each clone was measured using ImageJ. Representative plates are shown in the upper panel. Lower left panel: Distribution of colony sizes, shown for one of the three biological replicates. Lower right panel: Comparison of the colonies size between "Ubc9 wt"and "Ubc9 DA" cells. The average size of "Ubc9 wt" was set to 1. Shown is the mean of 3 independent experiments, each of which was performed in technical triplicates. Error bars are S.E.M.
