a Effect of cefoxitin on growth of a P. aeruginosa PAO1 ampG knockout complemented with E. coli AmpG on low-copy plasmid pHERD30T. Leaky (uninduced) expression of WT ampG (green up-arrow) restored growth to WT levels, while K62A (orange diamond) or Y152A (blue square) mutants had the same expression as empty control (gray down-arrow). Induction of expression with 0.1% arabinose partially restored growth of Y152A but not K62A. b P. aeruginosa AmpG mutants tested as in a. K66A and Y159A affected growth similarly to the ampG knockout (coloring as in a). On induction with 0.1% arabinose, growth of K66A and Y159A was partially restored to varying degrees. c Growth of P. aeruginosa AmpG mutants as in b at varying levels of arabinose induction (gray down-arrow uninduced, blue circle 0.1%, green up-arrow 0.2%, orange diamond 0.5%). Both K66A and Y159A show a concentration-dependent increase in growth on induction, with the response much higher for Y159A. d Identification of a D74N mutant that rescues growth of the P. aeruginosa AmpG K66A mutant. (coloring as in a, blue square represents K66A/D74N). Experiments were performed in technical triplicate and biological duplicate with a representative shown. Data points correspond to technical replicates, with error bands representing SD.
