An antisense PPNA targeting acpP shows antibacterial activity against UPEC 536 at 1× MIC. Bactericidal effects of (KFF)3K-acpP (red) were determined at 1× MIC (1.25 μM) against UPEC 536 (105 cfu/ml) during a 24 h time course. (KFF)3K-acpP-scrambled (grey) was used as control PPNA, whereas exposure to an equal volume of water served as additional control (black). After the indicated time points, aliquots of each condition were subjected to (A) spot assays or (B) cfu determination on LB plates to investigate the amount of viable cells. (A) Serial dilutions (10–1 to 10–3) were prepared, as indicated on the left. (B) Curves represent the mean of the biological replicates. The experiments were performed twice.
