松材线虫携带一株荧光假单胞菌分泌毒素的初步研究

本文研究了离体情况下松材线虫携带的致病菌一株荧光假单胞菌（Pseudomonas fluorescens GcM5-1A）在LB、NB和PD三种培养基中的毒性,以及产生的毒素对黑松（Pinus thunbergii）切根苗和悬浮细胞的效应。结果显示,菌体在LB和NB培养液的毒性较高,其中LB培养液的毒性最高,且培养液的pH值为7时比pH值为5时毒性高,而该菌EPD培养基中几乎不产毒。细菌培养液经硫酸铵分级沉淀,得到了主要含有50kDa蛋白的蛋白组分,该蛋白组分对黑松悬浮细胞和切根苗均有较高的毒性,并能改变黑松悬浮细胞细胞膜的透性,导致胞内可溶性糖和游离氨基酸外渗。     

紫茉莉悬浮细胞培养体系的建立

为建立紫茉莉(Mirabilis jalapa L.)悬浮细胞培养体系,以紫茉莉无菌苗叶片诱导的愈伤组织为材料,筛选紫茉莉悬浮细胞的适宜培养体系。结果表明,紫茉莉愈伤组织在MS+2,4-D 1 mg L-1+KT 0.5 mg L-1的液体培养基中悬浮继代培养3~4次,能得到稳定的悬浮细胞系。培养基的pH值为5.5~5.9,蔗糖浓度为30 g L-1更适合悬浮细胞的生长。紫茉莉悬浮细胞的生长曲线大致呈S型。最佳继代培养时间是10 d,培养液的体积为40 mL时,接种量为7.5 mL,可以较好地保持悬浮细胞系。1 L培养液中可提取分泌蛋白(0.42±0.15) g。这些有助于对悬浮细胞提取分泌蛋白的研究。

Ammonium uptake in carrot cell structures is influenced by pH-dependent cell aggregation

Semicontinuously grown wild carrot ( Daucus carota L.) cells were used in an investigation of the effect of culture medium pH on ammonium uptake in suspension cultures as a first step in exploring the relationship between pH and anthocyanin biosynthesis. In contrast to published data showing decreasing uptake rates with decreasing culture medium pH, ammonium-limited, semicontinuous carrot cell cultures showed a 25% greater ammonium uptake rate at pH 4.5 than at pH 5.5. When cells that had been grown semicontinuously in medium with a pH of 4.5 or 5.5 were grown in batch cultures at pH 4.5, 5.5 or 6.5 the ammonium uptake rates were those of the semicontinuous cultures, indicating that the pH of the batch culture medium had no effect on ammonium uptake rates over 7 days. The cell culture was composed of very small aggregates when it was grown semicontinuously in medium at pH 4.5, but was composed of large aggregates when it was grown semicontinuously in medium at pH 5.5. The aggregation/disaggregation of the cells was pH dependent, as changing the pH of the semicontinuous culture medium altered the extent of the aggregation. We conclude that the change in culture medium pH caused the cells to aggregate or disaggregate which in turn decreased or increased the rate of ammonium uptake from the medium.

Two Cyclic Dipeptides from Pseudomonas fluorescens GcM5-1A Carried by the Pine Wood Nematode and Their Toxicities to Japanese Black Pine Suspension Cells and Seedlings in vitro

Pseudomonas fluorescens GcM5-1A, isolated from the pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, was cultured in Luria Broth medium (LB). The clarified culture was extracted with ethyl acetate, and two dipeptides were purified from the extract. The chemical structures of 1 and 2 were identified as cyclo(-Pro-Val-)and cyclo(-Pro-Tyr-), respectively, by MS, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR,¹H-¹H COSY, 1H -¹³C COSY spectra. Bioassay results showed that the two compounds were toxic to both suspension cells and seedlings of Pinus thunbergii, which may offer some clues to research the mechanism of pine wilt disease caused by PWN.     

Reduction of hexavalent chromium by Pseudomonas fluorescens LB300 in batch and continuous cultures

Batch and continuous cultures of Pseudomonas fluorescens LB300 were shown to reduce hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), aerobically at neutral pH (pH 7.0) with citrate as carbon and energy source. The product of Cr(VI) reduction was previously shown and confirmed in this work to be trivalent chromium, Cr(III), by quantitative reoxidation to Cr(VI) with KMnO₄. In separate batch cultures (100 ml) containing initial Cr(VI) concentrations of 314.0, 200.0 and 112.5 mg Cr(VI) L^–1, the organism reduced 61%, 69% and 99.7% of the Cr(VI), respectively. In a comparison of stationary and shaken cultures, the organism reduced 81% of Cr(VI) in 147 h in stationary culture and 80% in 122 h in shaken culture. In continuous culture, the organism lowered the influent Cr(VI) concentration by 28% with an 11.7-h residence time, by 39% with a 20.8-h residence time and by 57% with a 38.5-h residence time. A mass balance of chromium in a continuous culture at steady state showed an insignificant uptake of chromium by cells of P. fluorescens LB300. Correspondence to: P. C. DeLeo     

Inducible catalase in Pseudomonas fluorescens

The catalase activity of a non-proliferating suspension of Pseudomonas fluorescens doubled after six hours incubation in a 50 mM phosphate buffer medium (pH 7.3). The same effect was observed in a peptone medium. The increased activity was due to induced enzyme synthesis, and not to activation of preexisting catalase. Induced catalase was separated by electrophoresis from deuterium labelled constitutive catalase. The enzyme was also induced under anaerobic conditions in phosphate buffer or in culture when nitrate was supplied as an electron acceptor. Induction was considerably increased by the addition of various nucleotides and amino acids to the incubation medium.     

Orthophosphite-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Oxidoreductase from Pseudomonas fluorescens

Information was obtained on the general properties and specificity of orthophosphite-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidoreductase. The enzyme was extracted from Pseudomonas fluorescens 195 grown in medium containing orthophosphite as the sole source of phosphorus. An enzyme preparation suitable for characterization was obtained from crude extracts by use of high-speed centrifugation, protamine sulfate precipitation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, and Sephadex gel filtration. The enzyme exhibited maximal activity at pH 7.0, and was inactivated within 6 min at 37 C. Arsenite, hypophosphite, nitrite, selenite, and tellurite were not oxidized by the enzyme. Sulfite inhibited the enzymatic oxidation of orthophosphite in an apparent competitive manner.     

Inhibition of conidial growth of Venturia inaequalis by the extracellular protein fraction from the antagonistic bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens Bk3

The present study investigated the inhibitory effect on the conidial germination of Venturia inaequalis by using living whole cells, extracellular protein fraction and individual proteins from the non-pathogenic antagonistic bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens Bk3.The bacterial suspension of P. fluorescens Bk3 from growth in minimal medium showed up to 73% inhibition of conidial germination after 7 days of pre-incubation. Furthermore, this inhibitory effect could also be shown by the extra cellular protein fraction of P. fluorescens Bk3. The protein solution obtained from liquid culture in LB medium showed 100% inhibition of conidial germination after 1 day of pre-incubation. Since the solution contained at least 10 major proteins these proteins were extracted from the gel and subsequently re-natured for functional studies. After re-naturation individual proteins were applied on the conidia of V. inaequalis to see their impact on the conidial germination. Out of these 10 proteins three showed inhibitory effects (20–42%). De novo sequencing of these three proteins were carried out by ESI Q-ToF mass spectrometry and they were identified as an extracellular solute-binding protein, an extracellular alkaline metalloprotease and a peptidoglycan-associated lipoprotein. The proteolytic activity of the metalloprotease could also be confirmed with activity staining using casein as a substrate.     

Extracellular factors affecting the adhesion of Pseudomonas fluorescens cells to glass surface

Two factors affecting the adhesion of Pseudomonas fluorescens to glass surfaces were revealed in the culture liquid (CL) of this bacterium. One of these factors, adhesin, which is responsible for cell adhesion, was found to be a protein substance located both at the cell surface and in the CL. Bacterial cells grown in rich LB medium were less adhesive than cells grown in minimal M9 medium. The adhesive capacity of cells was independent of the growth phase. The other factor, anti-adhesion (AA), which reduces cell adhesion, was found only in the CL. AA concentration in the CL increased with the culture age.     

Effects of fertilizer-based culture media on the production of exocellular polysaccharides and cellular superoxide dismutase by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phaeodactylum tricornutum</Emphasis> (Bohlin)

Microalgae cultures are receiving attention because of increasing biotechnological and biomedical production of active biomolecules. We evaluated various fertilizer-based culture media to scale up production of the marine microalga Phaeodactylum tricornutum for production of exocellular polysaccharides (EPS), soluble proteins, and cellular superoxide dismutase (SOD). The standard source of sodium nitrate was the same as that used in the synthetic f/2 culture medium and ammonium nitrate, urea, ammonium sulfate, and calcium nitrate as alternative sources of nitrogen. The maximum production of EPS was achieved in microalgae cells grown in the culture media containing 63 and 23% nitrogen from ammonium sulfate, and also in microalgae cells grown in the culture media containing 3% nitrogen from ammonium nitrate. The maximum production of cellular SOD was achieved in microalgae cells grown in the culture media containing 35 and 26% nitrogen from ammonium sulfate, and in the culture media containing 17% nitrogen from urea. The results suggest that it is possible to use a source of nitrogen, other than sodium nitrate, to scale up growth of P. tricornutum for production of EPS and SOD at reduced costs.
