Gel plugs were placed in 96-well plates, and then washed with 25 mM NH4HCO3 (pH 8.0). Gel plugs were pre-frozen at ?0uC for 1 h, and then digested with trypsin (Promega, WI, USA). After extraction from the gel into 50 acetonitrile/0.1 formic acid, peptides were lyophilized in a speed vacuum and resuspended in 10 mL of 0.1 formic acid solution. Peptide MS/MS spectra were obtained by MALDI-TOF/TOF (Bruker Daltonics). The resulting MS/MS spectra were interpreted using Mascot and searched against eubacterial proteins in the National Center for Biotechnology Information protein database. Results showing MASCOT score 75 and confidence level 95 were considered reliable [23].Real-Time Quantitative Reverse Transcriptase CR (qRT?PCR)Total RNA was extracted from each sample using the RNeasy Kit (Qiagen, CA, USA).
