Growth inhibition of yeast cells by 56MESS. BY4743 wild-type yeast cultures at exponential growth phase (OD600 0.8) were exposed to a range of 56MESS concentrations (0.4 to 3.5 mM) for 180 min at 30 °C with agitation. Growth inhibition was expressed as the percentage of colony count at each of time-points over that at 0 time-point. Diamond, control; triangle, 0.4 mM; multiplication symbol, 0.5 mM; square, 1.0 mM; circle, 3.5 mM. The data are the averages from at least two biological replicates and error bars indicate standard deviations
