#Background subtracted

^The amount of MB probes was calculated by dividing the cell density (counted by flow cytometry) by the amount of MB (in the form of FISH-TAMB) probes added to the reaction mixture

The result of uninduced and induced E. coli lacZa+ cells was described and discussed in the Supplementary Results and Discussion
