Figure Lengend Snippet: Wild-type cells were treated with 80 µg/mL MP265 10 min prior to and during 1-M osmotic shocks. The lack of coupling is similar to the effects of A22 treatment (Fig. 3e).

Article Snippet: Cells were first perfused with LB for 30 min with 50 μg/mL cephalexin (MP Biomedicals, Cat. #150585) to inhibit cell division and then treated with 100 μg/mL A22 (gift from Douglas Weibel), 80 μg/mL MP265 (MedChemExpress, Cat. #HY-131583), a beta-lactam antibiotic (100 μg/mL ampicillin (RPI, Cat. #A40040), 50 μg/mL mecillinam (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat. #33447), or 30 μg/mL cefsulodin (MP Biomedicals, Cat. #198677), or 0.85X PBS (Gibco, Cat. #70011044) for 10 min to perturb cell-wall synthesis.

Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Sensitivity to Penicillin G (PenG), aztreonam (AZTM), mecillinam (Mec), cefsulodin (Cef), moenomycin (Moeno), MP265, and fosfomycin (Fos) measured as zone of inhibition (ZOI) in a disk diffusion assay. ND, no ZOI around disk. Error bars, standard deviation. Significance determined by one-way ANOVA. ns, p>0.05; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; ****p<0.0001. Overnight cultures were diluted 1:100 into LB + BADA (100 μM) and grown at 37°C to OD 600 0.5 before addition of ( B ) PenG (100 μg/mL) or ( C ) Fos (500 μg/mL). Resulting spheroplasts were washed and imaged after 3 hr of antibiotic exposure. Fluorescence was normalized to the same intensity threshold for visual comparison except where indicated (exceptionally bright samples were normalized to a higher-intensity threshold denoted by the multiplier). Representative of two biological replicates. Scale bar = 5 μm.

Figure Lengend Snippet: ∆ ampG data for this figure was collected during the same experiments in and ; therefore, WT data are reproduced from those figures and any statistical tests shown here were performed on the complete datasets for those experiments (including WT, ∆ ampG , and ∆LTG strains). ( A, B ) Mass doubling times from growth curves performed in LB or LB0N inoculated with 10-fold serial dilutions (10 0 –10 –6 ) of saturated overnight cultures. Error bars represent standard deviation of the mean, n ≥ 3. ( C ) Saturated overnight cultures harboring isopropyl-β-D-1-thiolgalactopyranoside (IPTG)-inducible sacB or empty vector were 10-fold serially diluted (10 and plated on LB + kan50) and LB0N + kan50 ± IPTG (200 μM) + sucrose (0, 1, or 10% W/V) and incubated at 30°C for 24 hr before imaging. Representative of three biological replicates. ( D ) Sensitivity to Penicillin G (PenG), aztreonam (AZTM), mecillinam (Mec), cefsulodin (Cef), moenomycin (Moeno), MP265, and fosfomycin (Fos) measured as zone of inhibition (ZOI) in a disk diffusion assay.

Samples were washed and imaged after 3 hr of antibiotic exposure. Fluorescence was normalized to the same intensity threshold as and for comparison. Representative of two biological replicates.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Cells were exposed to PenG (μg ml −1 , 10 × MIC) for 3 h, followed by washing and application to agarose pads containing either no antibiotic, the aPBP inhibitor moenomcyin or the MreB inhibitor MP265 (both at 10x MIC). Frames are 10 min apart, scale bar = 5 μm. Arrows point to examples of ring-like localization of PBP1a in untreated spheres (yellow arrow) or those exposed to MP265 (green arrow).
