Full-length wild-type S. aureus gyrase subunits (GyrA and GyrB, used for enzymological studies), as well as the wild-type gyrase core fusion truncate (GyrB27-A56) and a fusion truncate containing a GyrAY123F mutation (used for structural studies) were expressed and purified as described previously.25 (link)Negatively supercoiled pBR322 DNA was prepared from Escherichia coli using a Plasmid Mega Kit (Qiagen) as described by the manufacturer. Positively supercoiled pBR322 DNA was prepared by treating negatively supercoiled molecules with recombinant Archaeoglobus fulgidus reverse gyrase.49 (link)–50 (link) The number of positive supercoils induced by this process is comparable to the number of negative supercoils in the original pBR322 preparations.49 (link) In the experiments that compared negatively and positively supercoiled DNA, the negatively supercoiled plasmid preparations were processed identically to the positively supercoiled molecules except that reaction mixtures did not contain reverse gyrase. Relaxed pBR322 plasmid DNA was generated by treating negatively supercoiled pBR322 with calf thymus topoisomerase I (Invitrogen) and purified as described previously.27 (link)Gepotidacin was provided by GlaxoSmithKline. Moxifloxacin was obtained from LKT Laboratories. Gepotidacin and Moxifloxacin were stored at 4 °C as 20 mM stock solutions in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide.

Inactivation of S. marcescens by Antibiotics and Heat

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Overnight cultures of S. marcescens were normalized to
OD600 = 2. One ml of normalized culture was treated
with 50 μg/ml moxifloxacin (LKT laboratories #M5794) and
20 μg/ml amikacin for 1 hour at room temperature,
incubated at 65 °C for 1 hour, and chilled on ice.
Untreated and antibiotic/heat-treated bacteria were serially diluted and plated
on to LB to determine colony-forming units (CFU). This treatment regimen
resulted in no detectable CFU (limit of detection was 100 CFU/ml).

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.
