Growth Curve

In a BY4735 background, knocking out YGL138C does not seem to have much effect on the strain's growth rate. In this assay, the BY4735 strain's doubling time was 162 minutes, while the YGL138C knock-out strain's doubling time was 140 minutes. (These doubling times are the means of three experiments.)

Salt Concentration (NaCl)

0mM NaCl conc. BY4735 strain's doubling time: 169 minutes

0mM NaCl conc. YGL138C strain's doubling time: 139 minutes

750mM NaCl conc. BY4735 strain's doubling time: 294 minutes

750mM NaCl conc. YGL138C strain's doubling time: 205 minutes

The graph above shows the growth rate for the previously listed strains and the relative level of NaCl concentration. Knocking out the gene positively influenced the growth rate. Comparing the YGL138C doubling times in 0mM and 750mM NaCl, there is a moderate effect on the growth rate. This effect negatively impacts the knockout strain's (YGL138C) growth rate.

Caffeine Group 1

When adding caffeine to the YGL138C strain, the effect it had on the growth rate was significant. The doubling times are as follows:

Doubling time of YGL138C with caffeine: 309 minutes

Doubling time of YGL138C without caffeine: 140 minutes

Doubling time of BY4735 with caffeine: -2649 minutes

Doubling time of BY4735 without caffeine: 187 minutes

When adding caffeine to this strain knockout, the growth rate slowed down a great deal.
