How do ampicillin resistant E. coli combat the lethal effects of the ampicillin antibiotic?

The pGlo plasmid contains an ampicillin resistance gene. This gene encodes an enzyme, β lactimase, which enzymatically degrades ampicillin. Therefore, bacteria that take up the plasmid (transformants) become resistant to ampicillin.

Why is ampicillin added to the pound medium?

Ampicillin is an antibiotic that is usually used as a reporter gene in cloning. A plasmid containing the ampicillin resistance gene (as well as another target gene within the plasmid) is introduced into the bacterial host. If the bacterium has taken up the plasmid and is expressing the plasmid, it will be resistant to ampicillin. LB is used as a growth medium and ampicillin to verify the plasmid is within the bactrium. No growth means no plasmid in the bacterial host...


Can you tell if these bcteria are ampicillin resistant by looking at them on the LB plate?

No. You cannot tell if the bacteria are ampicillin resistant just by looking at them. Both types of bacteria (those that are ampicillin resistant and those that are ampicillin sensitive) look similar when cultured, think about the colonies on the LB starter plate and the colonies on the +pGLO LB/amp plate.
