Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP002369
Sampleprep Summary:Cells were recovered at mid-exponential phase from 100 mL cultures following a protocol adapted from Somerville & Powers (Somerville and Powers 2014). Eight biological replicates of each independent growth condition were obtained. Cells were harvested by centrifugation at 5000 x g for 5 min at 4ºC. Cells were washed with 20 mM phosphate buffer pH 7.2-7.4 and centrifuged for 1 min at 13,000 rpm. Cell pellet was suspended in the same buffer with a final OD600 of 20 and stored at -80ºC for further metabolite extraction. Cells were thawed in a water bath at room temperature and 750 µL of 60% methanol were added and subjected to three freeze-thaw cycles using liquid nitrogen. Extracted samples were centrifuged at 21,000 g for 5 min at 4ºC. The extraction process on the pellets was repeated twice. The supernatants were kept and stored together at -20ºC overnight and dried in a SpeedVac. Dried samples were dissolved in: 750 µL phosphate buffer (33 mM, pH 7.0 in D2O with 2 mM of sodium azide) with 0.21 mM of 3-(trimethylsilyl)propionic-2,2,3,3-d4 (TSP). The suspensions were centrifuged at 21,000 g for 5 min at 4ºC and the resulting supernatants were then transferred to 5 mm NMR tubes.
