Cells were cultured in 24-well plates. 48 h post-transfection, the total cellular RNA was extracted using a Total RNA Extraction Kit (Promega, USA), according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The concentration of RNA was determined by measuring the absorbance at 260 nm, and 2 μg RNA was used for cDNA synthesis using an RT Master Mix (TaKaRa, Japan). qPCR amplification was performed using a mixture of Top Green qPCR Super Mix (Transgen, China), cDNA samples, and designated primers (Table 1). Relative gene expression was calculated by comparison of the CT value of the gene of interest with that of GAPDH, the internal control. http://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.iaucaew [PROTOCOL DOI]

X. campestris pv. campestris was grown in NYG medium overnight at 28°C. Bacterial cells were collected, suspended to an optical density at 600 nm of 0.05 in the tested medium supplemented if necessary with small molecules of interest at their optimal dosages, and cultured for 16 or 20 h. Next, the total RNA was extracted from the culture with a total RNA extraction kit (Promega, Beijing, China), and reverse transcription was performed using a cDNA synthesis kit (TaKaRa, Dalian, China). Each kit was used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To determine the transcription level of the genes tested, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed. SYBR green-labeled PCR fragments for the genes tested were amplified by using the corresponding primer sets listed in Table 3. The expression level of the 16S rRNA gene was used as an internal control for data analysis. All of the qRT-PCRs were performed in triplicate.

The total RNA of Xcc strains was extracted with a total-RNA extraction kit (Promega, Madison, Wisconsin, USA) and reverse transcription was performed using a cDNA synthesis kit (Takara, Dalian, China), according to the manufacturer's instructions. To assay the transcription level of the genes studied, qRT-PCR and sqRT-PCR were performed using the total RNA extracted from Xcc strains. The synergy brand (SYBR) green-labeled PCR fragments were amplified using the primer sets listed in Supplementary Table S2. The relative expression of genes was determined using the 2−ΔΔCt method (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001 (link)). The 16S rRNA gene was used as an internal standard. All sqRT-PCR and qRT-PCR tests were performed in triplicate.
Plasmids were introduced from E. coli strain into Xcc strain by triparental conjugation using pRK2073 (Supplementary Table S1) as the helper plasmid as described by Turner et al. (1985 (link)). Xcc transconjugants were selected in NYG medium supplemented with appropriate antibiotics.

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.
