Ten percent TCA was added to stop the reaction, which was then held on ice for 30 min. Precipitates were collected on 0.45-μm Millipore GF/A filters and rinsed with 5% TCA. The filters were dried and counted. Growth-inhibited cultures [LB-novobiocin (50 μM)] were compared with rifampicin-treated cultures [LB-rifampicin (150 μg/mL)) and growing cultures (LB alone).
27. Competent E. coli cells were electroporated with DNA and incubated at 37°C in 1 ml of LB media in the presence or absence of novobiocin. Optical density (600 nm) measurements to determine cell growth were conducted at 0 to 240 min after IPTG induction by removing 100 μl and diluting the cells to 1 ml in LB media.
