Description of NADA-green

NADA-green is a fluorescent D-amino acid probe suitable for labeling peptidoglycan in living bacteria, with maximum excitation/emission wavelengths of ~450/555nm[1]. NADA-green can be efficiently incorporated into the peptidoglycan layer of different bacteria, strongly leading to peripheral and intermediate labeling of bacterial cell populations without affecting growth rate[2]. NADA-green can be used to detect modified cell wall peptides in E. coli[3]. NADA-green can be used to label living spirochetes[4]. NADA-green can activate the GPCR cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) receptor[5]. NADA probes mainly report L,D-transpeptidase activity, tetrapeptide substrates, or both[6].

Protocol of NADA-green

This protocol only provides a guide, please modify it to meet your specific needs.
1. Solution preparation
(1) Stock solution: Dissolve NADA-green in DMSO to prepare a 10mM stock solution.
Note: Unused stock solution should be stored in aliquots at -20°C or -80°C in the dark to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
 
(2) Working solution: Dilute the stock solution with experimental buffer to the required working concentration, for example: 25μM[1].
Note: The optimal working concentration should be adjusted according to actual conditions or refer to the literature to set the gradient concentration by yourself. The working solution must be prepared and used immediately.
 
2. Labeling the cell wall with NADA-green[1](from the literature, for reference only)
(1) When the OD600 of the culture reaches 0.8, take 500µL of sample, collect the cells by centrifugation, and discard the supernatant.
(2) Resuspend the cell pellet in 150µL fresh culture medium, add 25µM NADA-green dye, and incubate at 37°C in a shaker in the dark for 10 min. Collect the cells by centrifugation and discard the supernatant.
(3) Gently wash once with 200µL PBS to remove unbound dye and resuspend in 150µL fresh culture medium for later use.
(4) Take the labeled cell suspension, centrifuge and wash again with 200µL PBS to completely remove the culture medium components. Resuspend the cells in 50µL PBS, take 1µL and drop it on a slide covered with a thin layer of 1.2% agarose (pre-soaked in PBS), and gently press the coverslip to fix.
(5) Use structured illumination microscopy (SIM) to image NADA-green at 488nm with an exposure time of 30ms.
