U. maydis strains were grown at 28°C in liquid YEPS (YEPS-L) medium (1% yeast extract, 0.4% peptone, 0.4% sucrose) or on solid potato dextrose broth containing 1.5% Bacto agar. All U. maydis strains used and generated in this study are listed in Table S1 in the supplemental material and are derivatives of the U. maydis wild-type strain MB215 (39 (link)). To induce glycolipid production, U. maydis strains were inoculated into nitrogen starvation medium (optical density [OD] = 0.1) containing 0.17% YNB (yeast nitrogen base without ammonium sulfate) and 1% glucose as a carbon source and grown for 3 to 6 days at 23°C or 30°C. Escherichia coli strain Top10 (Invitrogen) was used for the transformation and amplification of plasmid DNA (40 (link)).

Bacteriophage CP_F1 was originally isolated from a pig manure sample and was propagated on C. jejuni PT14 (Brathwaite et al., 2013 (link)). All strains, associated plasmids and oligonucleotide PCR primers used in this study are listed in Table 1. The C. jejuni strains were routinely grown on blood agar base No. 2 plates (BA plates; Oxoid) supplemented with 5% horse blood (TCS Biosciences) under microaerobic conditions in either a modular atmosphere controlled cabinet (5% CO2, 5% O2, 2% H2, 88% N2) or in anaerobic jars using gas replacement (7.3% CO2, 5.6% O2, 3.6% H2, 83.5% N2) at 42°C. Escherichia coli strain TOP10 (Invitrogen) was used for cloning and cultured aerobically at 37°C on Luria agar plates or in Luria broth containing appropriate antibiotic as required.

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.
