Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate the repression of transcription of arT by ArA, arA was cloned into the NcoI and XbaI sites of pBAD-myc-His B (Life Technologies) using primers ArA-NcoI-f2 and ArA-XbaI-r. Ligated product was introduced into BW25113 ΔghoS ΔmqsRA ΔKmR/pCA24N-arT via electroporation. As a positive control, pBAD-mqsA was also constructed in a similar manner, and electroporated into the same strain. For the negative control, pBAD-myc-His B (which expresses only the myc epitope and His tag) was electroporated into the same strain.
Independent cultures of the three strains (BW25113 ΔghoS ΔmqsRA ΔKmR/pCA24N-arT with either pBAD-arA, pBAD-mqsA, or pBAD-myc-His B) were grown in LB-chloramphenicol-ampicillin to an OD600 of 0.5, and 1% l-arabinose was added to induce production of MqsA or ArA. Cells were harvested after 30 min of induction, and total RNA was isolated as described in the following section. qRT-PCR was performed according to manufacturer's instructions (Power SYBR Green RNA-to-CT1-Step kit, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) using 100 ng of total RNA as the template. Primers were annealed at 60°C, and the housekeeping rrsG (16S rRNA) gene was used to normalize all data. Changes in gene transcripts were calculated using the 2−ΔΔCt formula54 (link).

Measurements were performed in technical triplicate and repeated at least three separate times. Data in figures are expressed in Log2 in order to provide symmetrical distribution of gene expression effects and reported as percentage of gene expression in control cells. All data are expressed as the ratio to the reference gene Actin.

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.
