Kanamycin

Manufactured by Solarbio
Sourced in China

Kanamycin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic commonly used in molecular biology and microbiology laboratories. It functions as a selective agent, inhibiting the growth of bacteria that do not possess the appropriate resistance gene. Kanamycin is primarily used in the culturing and selection of genetically modified organisms, such as recombinant bacteria, during various experimental procedures.

The yeast and bacterial strains and plasmids used in this study are listed in Table S2. The yeast cells were inoculated into YPD medium (10 g/l yeast extract, 20 g/l peptone and 20 g/l glucose) and cultured at 30°C with constant shaking at 200 rpm. The galactose-containing yeast peptone glucose (YPG) medium was used to induce the expression of Cre enzyme. The kanamycin and zeocin-resistant transformants were screened using G418 (400 μg/l) and zeocin (2,500 μg/l) (Solarbio, China), respectively. Escherichia coli DH5α was grown in Luria-Bertani (LB) medium (5 g/l yeast extract, 10 g/l tryptone and 10 g/l NaCl) at 37°C with constant shaking at 200 ×g. The clones expressing the gene deletion cassettes were selected on 1.5% agar media using kanamycin (50 μg/l) (Solarbio).

The recombinant plasmid 35S::GhTIP1;1-like, ProGhTIP1;1-like::GUS, 35S::GhTIP1;1-like::GFP and TRV:GhTIP1;1-like were transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101 or LBA4404 (Weidi, Shanghai, China). The GV3101 cells harbouring the fusion constructs 35S::GhTIP1;1-like and ProGhTIP1;1-like::GUS were transformed into Col-0 Arabidopsis thaliana plants via the floral dip method [45 (link)]. Transgenic Arabidopsis seedlings were screened using 1/2 MS medium containing 50 mg·L−1 kanamycin (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and further confirmed by PCR and RT–qPCR. The Agrobacterium strains containing TRV1 and those that were containing TRV:GhTIP1;1-like or TRV:00 were mixed in equal volume and infiltrated into the cotyledons of seven-day-old seedlings of H559 by syringe infiltration to generate the control (TRV:00) and GhTIP1;1-like-silenced (TRV:GhTIP1;1-like) cotton plants [46 (link)]. TRV:CLA1 was used as a positive control as previously described. The Agrobacterium strain GV3101 carrying the recombinant vector 35S::GhTIP1;1-like::GFP was used to infect onion epidermal cells and tobacco leaves for subcellular localization as previously described [47 (link)].

The red-fleshed apple callus was transformed as described previously19 (link). The coding sequences (CDSs) of MdMYB6 and MdTMT1 were ligated into the pRI-101 vector containing GFP and the 35S CaMV promoter, respectively, to generate the 35S:MdMYB6-GFP and 35 S:MdTMT1-GFP plasmids (Supplementary Fig. S1A). The CDS of MdMYB6 was ligated into the pCAMBIA1301 vector, which contained a sequence encoding a His tag as well as the 35S CaMV promoter, to construct the 35S:MdMYB6-His recombinant plasmid (Supplementary Fig. S1E). The recombinant plasmids were transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404. We then infected the red-fleshed calli with the transformed Agrobacterium and cocultured them on MS medium in the dark at 24 °C for 48 h. The resulting calli were then moved onto a screening medium containing 250 mg/L carbenicillin and 50 mg/L kanamycin (Solarbio, Beijing, China) for the MdMYB6- or MdTMT1-overexpressing calli. The screening medium for cultivating the calli cotransfected with MdMYB6 and MdTMT1 contained 250 mg/L carbenicillin, 20 mg/L hygromycin and 50 mg/L kanamycin.

After infection, the cells were detached from the dish using a cell scraper and centrifuged to remove the supernatant. Then, the cells were treated with PBS containing 0.01% Triton X-100 (Solarbio, Beijing, China) and vigorously agitated to lyse the cells and release Mm. The cell lysate was diluted and plated onto Middlebrook 7H10 (BD) agar plates and incubated at 30 °C for approximately 14 days. Infected zebrafish were immersed in PBS containing 3% kanamycin (Solarbio) and incubated for 45 min at a temperature of 27 °C. Thereafter, a cell tissue crusher was employed to lyse the infected zebrafish and release Mm.

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.
