Physiological and biochemical contributions to the taxonomy of the genus Prototheca

Prototheca zopfii (12 strains) is able to use glucose, fructose, propanol, glycerol, and acetate as sources of carbon for growth. One of the strains is biochemically (utilization also of galactose and mannose), and two strains are morphologically slightly different.Two strains can be identified as P. wikerhamii. They exhibit good growth with glucose, fructose, galactose, trehalose, propanol, glycerol, acetate, and glutamate as sources of carbon. P. spec. 263-2 grows only with glucose and acatate. P. zopfii and P. wickerhamii are able to use urea, glycine, and glutamate as sources of nitrogen. P. spec. 263-2, on the other hand, cannot utilize these organic nitrogen compounds for growth.Four strains of Chlorella protothecoides are able to use glucose, fructose, galactose, and acetate as sources of carbon for growth in the dark. Three of them utilize also mannose, trehalose, and glutamate. Two strains can grow with glycerol, and one is able to use lactose. — Urea and glycine can serve as sources of nitrogen for the four strains of C. protothecoides. Glutamate supports growth of three strains, and one strain is able to use nicotinamide.     

Influence of amino acids on nitrogen fixation ability and growth of Azospirillum spp.

The utilization of amino acids for growth and their effects on nitrogen fixation differ greatly among the several strains of each species of Azospirillum spp. that were examined. A. brasiliense grew poorly or not at all on glutamate, aspartate, serine, or histidine as the sole nitrogen and carbon sources. Nitrogen fixation by most A. brasiliense strains was inhibited only slightly even by 10 mM concentrations of these amino acids. In contrast, A. lipoferum and A. amazonense grew very well on glutamate, aspartate, serine, or histidine as the sole nitrogen and carbon sources; nitrogen fixation, which was measured in the presence of malate or sucrose, was severely inhibited by these amino acids. It was concluded that growth on histidine as the sole source of nitrogen, carbon, and energy may be used for the taxonomic characterization of Azospirillum spp. and for the selective isolation of A. lipoferum. The different utilization of various amino acids by Azospirillum spp. may be important for their establishment in the rhizosphere and for their associative nitrogen fixation with plants. The physiological basis for the different utilization of glutamate by Azospirillum spp. was investigated further. A. brasiliense and A. lipoferum exhibited a high affinity for glutamate uptake (Km values for uptake were 8 and 40 microM, respectively); the Vmax was 6 times higher in A. lipoferum than in A. brasiliense. At high substrate concentrations (10 mM), the nonsaturable component of glutamate uptake was most active in A. lipoferum and A. amazonense.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A nutritional study of eight strains of Gymnoascus reessii

Summary Eight strains ofGymnoascus reessii representing several morphological variants were grown in media which contained a variety of carbon and nitrogen sources in order to determine whether there was a correlation between morphological variation and physiological characteristics. Seven strains were similar in their assimilatory abilities, while one strain, 0-309 (NRRL 3612), was consistently dissimilar from the others. The defined medium which permitted the most growth of all eight isolates contained glycine as the nitrogen source and glucose as the carbon source. Other good, defined sources of carbon and nitrogen included soluble starch, maltose, KNO₃ and NaNO₃. Peptone and casamino acids were effective nitrogen sources also. Seven strains grew better with added growth factors although they did not have an absolute requirement for such factors. The other strain, 0-309, appeared to have a growth factor deficiency. Seven of the eight strains were basically similar in their nutritional characteristics. Only strain 0-309 (NRRL 3612) consistently demonstrated sufficient differences so that it could possibly be considered to be a variety ofG. reessii.

Regulation of nitrogen utilization of hisT mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.

Mutations in the hisT gene of Salmonella typhimurium alter pseudouridine synthetase I, the enzyme that modifies two uridines in the anticodon loop of numerous transfer ribonucleic acid species. We have examined two strains carrying different hisT mutations for their ability to grow on a variety of nitrogen sources. The hisT mutants grew more rapidly than did hisT+ strains with either arginine or proline as the nitrogen source and glucose as the carbon source. The hisT mutations were transduced into new strains to show that these growth properties were due to the hisT mutations. The hisT mutations did not influence the growth of mutants having altered glutamine synthetase regulation. Assays of the three primary ammonia-assimilatory enzymes, glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamine synthetase, and glutamate synthase, showed that glutamate synthase activities were lower in hisT mutants than in isogenic hisT+ controls; however, the glutamate dehydrogenase activity was about threefold higher in the hisT strains grown in glucose-arginine medium. The results suggest that the controls for enzyme synthesis for nitrogen utilization respond either directly or indirectly to transfer ribonucleic acid species affected by the hisT mutation.
