Quantification of Colibactin-associated Genotoxicity in HeLa Cells by In Cell Western (ICW) Using γ -H2AX as a Marker

The genotoxin colibactin is produced by several species of . This genotoxin induces DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, senescence and death in eukaryotic cells ( Nougayrède , 2006 ; Taieb , 2016 ). Here we describe a method to quantify the genotoxicity of bacteria producing colibactin following a short...

Zusammenfassung:The genotoxin colibactin is produced by several species of . This genotoxin induces DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, senescence and death in eukaryotic cells ( Nougayrède , 2006 ; Taieb , 2016 ). Here we describe a method to quantify the genotoxicity of bacteria producing colibactin following a short infection of cultured mammalian cells with colibactin producing .
