Swarming Assay
We assayed chemotaxis of E. coli against cadmium and aspartic acid on soft agar, containing M9 synthetic medium, on that plate E. coli can swim. Protocol 1.E. coli JM109 was cultured at 30℃ for 12 hours with shaking (50 rpm). 2.Aliquot of the culture was spotted on the center of agar plate. 3.10 mM L-aspartic acid (40 μl) or 100 mM cadmium chloride (4 μl) was spotted on 25 mm distant from the center of the agar plate. 4.The plate was standed for 5 min at RT. 5.The plate was incubated at 30 ℃.
Result and Discussion
fig1：E. coli swarming toward aspartic acid L: aspartic acid (10 mM, 40 μl) R: ddH2O (40 μl) Incubation: 108 hours temperature: 30 ℃ E. coli cultured was spotted on the center of agar plate, and chemotaxis was spotted on 25 mm distant from the center. The swarming circle of aspartic acid (L) was larger than that of ddH2O (R), and the swarming area around aspartate acid (L) was more larger than that of ddH2O (R), suggesting that E. coli swarming to aspartate acid. This experiment indicate that E. coli might have positive chemotaxis toward aspartic acid.
fig2：E. coli hate cadmium. L: cadmium(100 mM, 4 μl) R: ddH2O (40 μl) Incubation: 110 hours temperature: 30 ℃ E. coli cultured was spotted on the center of agar plate, and chemotaxis was spotted on 25 mm distant from the center. The swarming circle of cadmium (L) was smaller than that of ddH2O (R), and the swarming area around cadmium (L) was more smaller than that of ddH2O (R), suggesting that E. coli hate cadmium. This experiment indicate that E. coli might have negative chemotaxis against cadmium.
