Phenylalanine ammonia lyase production by gamma irradiated and analog-resistant mutants of Rhodotorula glutinis

Mutants resistant to phenylalanine analogs (L-tyrosine, p-fluoro-D, L-phenylalanine (PFP) and trans-cinnamic acid) were isolated from a wild type strain of Rhodotorula glutinis A-97 by mutagenic treatment with gamma radiation and screened for phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) production. One such mutant, gammaT11 (resistant to L-tyrosine), exhibited four times the PAL activity of the parent wild strain A-97. Mutant isolate gammaTFP5.6 which was selected as L-tyrosine and PFP resistant isolate, produced inducible PAL activity at levels 5.94-fold higher than the wild-type A-97 and 2.66-fold higher than its parent mutant isolate gammaT5 which was resistant to L-tyrosine. The mutant isolate gammaTC5d which was resistant to L-tyrosine and trans-cinnamic acid, exhibited 3.48 and 1.56-fold increase in PAL activity compared to the parent wild strain A-97 and its parent mutant isolate gammaT5, respectively. Different media have been examined for the induction of PAL.     

Enhanced valine production in Corynebacterium glutamicum with defective H+-ATPase and C-terminal truncated acetohydroxyacid synthase

We have reported increased glutamate production by a mutant of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC14067 (strain F172-8) with reduced H(+)-ATPase activity under biotin-limiting culture conditions (Aoki et al. Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 69, 1466-1472 (2005)). In the present study, we examined valine production by an H(+)-ATPase-defective mutant of C. glutamicum. Using the double-crossover chromosome replacement technique, we constructed a newly defined H(+)-ATPase-defective mutant from ATCC13032. After transforming the new strain (A-1) with a C-terminal truncation of acetohydroxyacid synthase gene (ilvBN), valine production increased from 21.7 mM for the wild-type strain to 46.7 mM for the A-1 in shaking flask cultures with 555 mM glucose. Increased production of the valine intermediate acetoin was also observed in A-1, and was reduced by inserting acetohydroxyacid isomeroreductase gene (ilvC) into the ilvBN plasmid. After transformation with this new construct, valine production increased from 38.3 mM for the wild-type strain to 95.7 mM for A-1 strain. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report indicating that an H(+)-ATPase-defective mutant of C. glutamicum is capable of valine production. Our combined results with glutamate and valine suggest that the H(+)-ATPase defect is also effective in the fermentative production of other practical compounds.     

Role of pfkA and general carbohydrate catabolism in seed colonization by Enterobacter cloacae.

Enterobacter cloacae A-11 is a transposon mutant of strain 501R3 that was deficient in cucumber spermosphere colonization and in the utilization of certain carbohydrates (D. P. Roberts, C. J. Sheets, and J. S. Hartung, Can. J. Microbiol. 38:1128-1134, 1992). In vitro growth of strain A-11 was reduced or deficient on most carbohydrates that supported growth of strain 501R3 but was unaffected on fructose, glycerol, and all amino acids and organic acids tested. Colonization by strain A-11 was significantly reduced (P 相似文献   

Characterization of mat A-2, mat A-3 and deltamatA mating-type mutants of Neurospora crassa.

The mating-type locus of Neurospora crassa regulates mating identity and entry into the sexual cycle. The mat A idiomorph encodes three genes, mat A-1, mat A-2, and mat A-3. Mutations in mat A-1 result in strains that have lost mating identity and vegetative incompatibility with mat a strains. A strain containing mutations in both mat A-2 and mat A-3 is able to mate, but forms few ascospores. In this study, we describe the isolation and characterization of a mutant deleted for mat (deltamatA), as well as mutants in either mat A-2 or mat A-3. The deltamatA strain is morphologically wild type during vegetative growth, but it is sterile and heterokaryon compatible with both mat A and mat a strains. The mat A-2 and mat A-3 mutants are also normal during vegetative growth, mate as a mat A strain, and produce abundant biparental asci in crosses with mat a, and are thus indistinguishable from a wild-type mat A strain. These data and the fact that the mat A-2 mat A-3 double mutant makes few asci with ascospores indicate that MAT A-2 and MAT A-3 are redundant and may function in the same pathway. Analysis of the expression of two genes (sdv-1 and sdv-4) in the various mat mutants suggests that the mat A polypeptides function in concert to regulate the expression of some sexual development genes.

Accumulation of Diphosphorylated Butirosin A Derivatives by Phosphatase-negative Mutants of Bacillus vitellinus

It has been reported that Bacillus vitellinus, a butirosin A-producing bacterium, has two enzymes: butirosin A-3′-phosphotransferase, catalyzing phosphorylation of butirosin A, and phosphatase, catalyzing dephosphorylation of butirosin A-3′-phosphate.

A phosphatase-negative mutant, P-15, was derived from a potent butirosin A producer, BA-44, by NTG treatment. The mutant, P-15, was found to produce a butirosin A derivative when it was grown in a medium containing a relatively high concentration of inorganic phosphate. This compound was isolated and confirmed to be butirosin A-6′-N-diphosphate by physico-chemical analysis and ¹³C-NMR spectrometry.

Furthermore, a mutant strain, AP-165, was derived from the phosphatase-negative mutant, P-15. This strain, AP-165, was isolated as a nonproducer on an agar piece of bouillon medium, but was found to accumulate a major product, 6′-deamino-6′-hydroxybutirosin A-6′-O-diphosphate, and a minor one, 6′-deamino-6′-hydroxybutirosin A-6′-O-monophosphate.

It seems likely that these phosphorylated compounds are possible intermediates of butirosin A biosynthesis in B. vitellinus.     

Role of pfkA and General Carbohydrate Catabolism in Seed Colonization by Enterobacter cloacae

Enterobacter cloacae A-11 is a transposon mutant of strain 501R3 that was deficient in cucumber spermosphere colonization and in the utilization of certain carbohydrates (D. P. Roberts, C. J. Sheets, and J. S. Hartung, Can. J. Microbiol. 38:1128–1134, 1992). In vitro growth of strain A-11 was reduced or deficient on most carbohydrates that supported growth of strain 501R3 but was unaffected on fructose, glycerol, and all amino acids and organic acids tested. Colonization by strain A-11 was significantly reduced (P ≤ 0.05) for cucumber and radish seeds compared to that of strain 501R3, but colonization of pea, soybean, sunflower, and sweet corn seeds was not reduced. Pea seeds released several orders of magnitude more total carbohydrates and amino acids than cucumber and radish seeds and approximately 4,000-fold more fructose. Fructose was the only carbohydrate detected in the seed exudates which supported wild-type levels of in vitro growth of strain A-11. Soybean, sunflower, and sweet corn seeds also released significantly greater amounts of fructose and total carbohydrates and amino acids than cucumber or radish seeds. The exogenous addition of fructose to cucumber and radish seeds at quantities similar to the total quantity of carbohydrates released from pea seeds over 96 h increased the populations of strain A-11 to levels comparable to those of strain 501R3 in sterile sand. Molecular characterization of strain A-11 indicated that the mini-Tn5 kanamycin transposon was inserted in a region of the genome with significant homology to pfkA, which encodes phosphofructo kinase. A comparison of strain A-11 with Escherichia coli DF456, a known pfkA mutant, indicated that the nutritional loss phenotypes were identical. Furthermore, the pfkA homolog cloned from E. cloacae 501R3 complemented the nutritional loss phenotypes of both E. coli DF456 and E. cloacae A-11 and restored colonization by strain A-11 to near wild-type levels. These genetic and biochemical restoration experiments provide strong evidence that the quantities of reduced carbon sources found in seed exudates and the ability of microbes to use these compounds play important roles in the colonization of the spermosphere.     

A novel microbial interaction: obligate commensalism between a new gram-negative thermophile and a thermophilic Bacillus strain

Obligately commensal interaction between a new gram-negative thermophile and a thermophilic Bacillus strain was investigated. From compost samples, a mixed culture showing tyrosine phenol-lyase activity was enriched at 60°C. The mixed culture consisted of a thermophilic gram-negative strain, SC-1, and a gram-positive spore-forming strain, SK-1. In mixed cultures, strain SC-1 started to grow only when strain SK-1 entered the stationary phase. Although strain SC-1 showed tyrosine phenol lyase activity, we could not isolate a colony with any nutrient medium. For the isolation and cultivation of strain SC-1, we added culture supernatant and cell extract of the mixed culture to the basal medium. The supernatant and cell extract of the mixed culture contained heat-stable and heat-labile factors, respectively, that are essential to the growth of strain SC-1. During pure cultures of strain SK-1, the heat-stable growth factors were released during the growth phase and the heat-labile growth factors were produced intracellularly at the early stationary phase. Strain SC-1 was gram-negative and microaerophilic, and grows optimally at 60°C. Based on these results, we propose a novel commensal interaction between a new gram-negative thermophile, strain SC-1, and Bacillus sp. strain SK-1.
