WT and eif2ak4−/− littermates were treated with an antibiotic cocktail containing 500 mg/l metronidazole (Sigma-Aldrich, M3761), 500 mg/l vancomycin (Sigma-Aldrich, 861987), 1 g/l neomycin (Sigma-Aldrich, N6386) and 1 g/l ampicillin (Euromedex, EU0400-D) for 7 d as described,32 (link) and 24 h later were orally challenged with 109 CFU of LF82 or K12 MG1655 bacteria for 3 d. Fresh fecal samples (100-200 mg) were collected from individual mice every day post-infection and resuspended in PBS to determine bacterial persistence in the gut. At d 3 post-infection, mice were sacrificed, and 2-cm segments of ileal tissues were removed, opened longitudinally and homogenized in PBS to determine the number of bacteria associated with the intestinal mucosa. After serial dilution, fecal or ileal samples were plated on LB agar plates containing 50 µg/ml ampicillin and 20 µg/ml erythromycin (Euromedex, E002) to isolate LF82 bacteria, or containing 300 µg/ml rifampicin (Euromedex, 1059-B) to isolate K12 MG1655 bacteria, and incubated at 37°C overnight.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NEB 5-alpha competent E. coli (high efficiency) (New England Biolabs) was grown at 37 °C in LB medium containing 100 μg/ml ampicillin (Euromedex). Yeast strains were grown in YPD or YNB medium at 30 °C. CEN-PK (MATa ura3-52) was used to construct the genomic library (see below). Isolation of the commercial wine strain EC1118 haploid derivative 59A was described previously (Ambroset et al. 2011 (link)). 59A MATα Δamn1-loxP (provided by V. Galeote, INRA SPO) and the S288c auxotrophic derivative BY4720 (MATα lys2Δ0 trp1Δ63 ura3Δ0) were used for mean expression and noise measurements at the genomic level. Both strains have been transformed by pJRL2 plasmids to integrate promoter variants fused to yEGFP in their LEU2 locus (see below and supplementary table S6, Supplementary Material online, for the list of strains). Cells transformed with pJRL2 plasmids were grown on plates containing 200 µg/ml G418 (Euromedex). Induction by CuSO4 was performed either in YPD or in YNB medium.

One Shot TOP10 E. coli Cells Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
One Shot TOP10 chemically competent E. coli cells from Invitrogen (K-12 strain, similar to the DH10B strain) were used in this study. Colonies were grown in LB medium (Sigma–Aldrich) with ampicillin (100 µg ml−1, Euromedex) at 37°C to an OD600 of ∼1 (∼8 × 108 cells ml−1). The cells were centrifuged (1000g, 4°C), washed and gently resuspended in nutrient-free and sterile-filtered phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) pH ∼7.4 to an OD600 of ∼10 for SAS experiments. PBS and deuterated PBS (D-PBS) were adjusted to pH ∼7.4 and pD ∼7.4, respectively. Contrast-matching measurements were carried out on bacteria resuspended in D-PBS or in various ratios of PBS and D-PBS (further details are provided in the Supporting Information).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
At age of 12 weeks, eif2ak4+/+ and eif2ak4−/− mice, or Tg/eif2ak4+/+ and Tg/eif2ak4−/− mice were administered orally by gavage during three days (once per day) with either 109 of ampicillin-erythromycin-resistant AIEC LF82 strain isolated from a CD patient14 (link) or the rifampicin-resistant non-pathogenic E. coli K12 MG1655 strain. Bacterial persistence in the gut was evaluated every day post-infection. For this, fresh fecal samples (100–200 mg) were homogenized in PBS. After serial dilutions, fecal samples were plated on LB agar plates containing 50 μg/ml ampicillin and 20 μg/ml erythromycin (Euromedex, E002) to isolate LF82 bacteria, or containing 300 μg/ml rifampicin (Euromedex, 1059-B) to isolate E. coli K12 bacteria, and were incubated overnight at 37 °C. The number of bacteria was determined by counting the colony-forming units (CFU).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
