Figure 3. MazF Overproduction Induces Cellular Protein Carbonylation That is Prevented by Catalase.

Figure 3

E. coli strains MC4100relA +/pBAD-mazF (MazF), MC4100relA +/pQEkatE/pBAD-mazF (MazF+KatE), and MC4100relA +/pQEsodA/ pBAD-mazF (MazF+SodA) were grown in M9 minimal medium and MazF was induced. (A) Protein carbonylation; (B) relative carbonyl levels described in (A). The intensity of each band presented in (A) quantified as described in the legend for Figure 2.

(C) Percent (%) of survivors was determined 8 h following the induction of mazF expression.
