The verified plasmids were transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) cells, which was then cultured in LB medium supplemented with 50 μg/mL kanamycin (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China) at 37°C until OD600 = 0.6–0.8, followed by inducing expressing using 0.5 mM isopropyl-β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG; Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China) for 20 h at 20°C. E. coli BL21 (DE3) cells were harvested by centrifugation and resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM NaH2PO4 and 300 mM NaCl at pH 8.0). After ultrasonic fragmentation, the His-tagged proteins were purified using a Ni Sepharose 6 Fast Flow column (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden). The eluent was replaced with PC buffer (20 mM sodium phosphate and 10 mM citrate at pH 6.0) and then filtered using a 3 kDa cutoff membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, United States) at 4°C. The protein obtained was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Protein concentrations were determined using the Bradford method (Bradford, 1976 (link)).

The predicted antibiotic resistance gene information in the genome was obtained by comparing the amino acid sequences of the strains with the comprehensive antibiotic research database (CARD, http://arpcard.mcmaster.ca, accessed on 24 May 2021) [51 (link)]. The strains were clustered using HemI software [50 (link)].
The microbroth dilution method was used to determine antibiotic resistance of L. sakei according to ISO 10932:2010 [52 ].

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.
