The decrease of cAMP is not caused by changed expression of CyaA, CyaB or CpdA. (A) Relative mRNA levels of cyaA, cyaB, and cpdA. Total RNA of indicated strains was isolated and the mRNA levels of these genes were determined by real time PCR with rpsL serving as an internal control. ns, not significant, p < 0.05 by Student’s t-test. (B) Indicated strains containing a cyaA-Flag (cyaB-Flag or cpdA-Flag) driven by its native promoter were grown at 37°C with or without 5 mM EGTA until OD600 of 1.0. Samples from equal number of bacteria were separated by SDS-PAGE and probed with an anti-Flag antibody or an anti-RNA polymerase beta subunit antibody. (C,D) Indicated strains containing a cyaA-Flag or cyaB-Flag driven by a tac promoter or the empty vector pMMB67EH were grown to an OD600 of 1.0 in LB with 1 mM IPTG with or without 5 mM EGTA. Proteins from equivalent bacterial cells of indicated strains were separated by SDS-PAGE and probed with an anti-ExoS antibody, an anti-Flag antibody or an anti-RNA polymerase beta subunit antibody. S, supernatant; P, pellet.
