Figure 3

Sensitivity of sft-1(RNAi ) and oxa-1(RNAi) animals to oxidative stress. A: Survival curves of WT or sft-1(RNAi) animals exposed to 10 mM or 25 mM paraquat, recorded as the number of hours of survival following exposure. WT and sft-1(RNAi) animals display similar sensitivity to paraquat at either concentration. B: Survival curves of size-matched WT and oxa-1(RNAi) animals exposed to paraquat. oxa-1(RNAi) animals show marked resistance to paraquat, at both 10 mM and 25 mM concentrations.
