PBP4 protein amounts in strains grown in the presence of antibiotic. (A and B) COLnex (A) and CRB (B) were grown to an OD600 of 0.4 (arrow), and then no drug, nafcillin (NAF) at 0.5 μg/ml (COLnex) or 128 μg/ml (CRB), or ceftaroline (CPT) at 0.25 μg/ml (COLnex) or 64 μg/ml (CRB) was added. (C) PBPs in Bocillin-FL-labeled whole-cell lysates were prepared from cells, all of which were collected at the same time, at an OD600 of 1.0 for the COLnex strain or the CRB strain. PBPs 1 to 4 are indicated in the left margin. Data are representative of those from one of two independent experiments.
