Fig 6. Profiles of E. coli cell lysis as the result of AH14a_p93 expression.

A ER2566(pET-AH14a_p93) culture was grown at 37°C to exponential phase (OD600 of 0.4). Untreated cultures (with glucose, but without IPTG, indicated by triangles) or cultures induced by the addition of IPTG to a final concentration of 1 mM (circles) were monitored for growth. A ER2566(pET-AH14a_p05) culture was used as the control in a parallel test (not induced—squares, induced—diamonds). The arrow indicates the time at which IPTG was added. OD–optical density.
