It has been shown in our previous studies that, during collision, bacterial population waves can penetrate each other or stop. In the present study, the mechanism of the two regimes of interaction is considered in detail. Based on the experimental and theoretical research, it has been shown that this interaction is a vivid example to confirm one of the characteristic properties of waves in cross-diffusion systems. 相似文献

Dynamics of bacterial population waves as dependent on the type of the chemotactic response function

A study was made of the time of formation and the rate of propagation of bacterial population waves as dependent on substrate concentration. Experimentally and theoretically it is shown that the time of bacterial wave formation grows with increasing concentration of the nutritive component. At the same time, the wave propagation rate drops at relatively high concentrations of the nutritive component. In numerical experiments with a mathematical model, comparative analysis has been made of the dynamics of the behavior of bacterial waves at different chemotactic responses. 相似文献

Many motile bacteria (for instance, Escherichia coli) inoculated at some point in a semisolid nutrient medium can form population waves: bands or rings. The formation of these motile structures is due to chemotaxis. The population waves when they are drawn together can form two types of non-motile structures. Firstly, the population waves can collide. Secondly, in certain conditions, the waves can slow down and stop without coming into contact directly with each other. In this way demarcation zones are formed. The mechanism of the occurrence of the demarcation zones has been unknown. In this paper we show that formation of these zones is due to lack of nutrients (which at the same time act as attractants) within the narrow gap between individual bacterial populations. 相似文献

Abstract The level of cGMP in a suspension of Escherichia coli cells increased transiently upon the addition of chemoattractants. Ca2+ (1 mM), but not Mg2+ , produced constant tumbling of cells in the presence of the ionophore A23187. The effect was observed either in stationary-state cells, or in a logarithmic culture treated with EDTA to increase permeability by A23187. Under the same conditions, Ca2+ decreased the cytoplasmic level of cGMP. In Phormidium uncinatum , rapid 45 Ca2+ accumulation followed a light-dark stimulus, or the addition of tetramethylquinone (TMQ), a chemorepellent. La3+ , which increases the reversal rate, also enhanced the level of cytoplasmic Ca2+ , presumably by blocking the outward Ca2+ flux. In both E. coli and P. uncinatum Ca2+ inhibited methylaccepting chemotaxis protein (MCP) methylation. It is concluded that cGMP and Ca2+ are secondary messengers in taxis information-processing. 相似文献

Glucose taxis and O2-taxis in Escherichia coli signal to flagella via a pathway that includes PTSglc and adenylate cyclase. Information from a number of attractants and repellents is focused at the level of methy-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCPs) and information is passed to flagella by a separate pathway. Mutants defective in adenylate cyclase (Δcya) had a residual taxis to glucose that was eliminated by preincubating the cells with MCP attractants, or by depleting the -CH3 donor. A methyltransferase mutant had a decreased sensitivity to MCP repellents and this response was completely blocked by preincubating the cells with glucose. Likewise, the response of cells, depleted for -CH3, towards repellents, was blocked if bacteria carried a pts mutation. It is concluded that PTS and MCP pathways exchange information. In cya cells, O2 taxis was restored in the presence of maltose, an MCPII attractat. It is suggested that MCPII is an additional protonmotive force (pmf) sensor. 相似文献

Summary In buffer suspensions of UV-irradiated Escherichia coli B/r WP2 Hcr+ (auxotrophic for tryptophan) acriflavine binds to DNA, but this treatment has little effect on killing and results in the appearance of fewer prototrophs on tryptophan-supplemented minimal agar. If plates contain a broth supplement, however, the buffer-acriflavine treatment greatly increases the yield of UV-induced prototrophs; but this increase does not depend on complete binding of acriflavine to the DNA as a whole, since it is observed with contact times too short for this to occur (as short as 20 seconds). The incorporation of acriflavine in both kinds of plating medium increases the yields of prototrophs. The maximum yield is observed when irradiated bacteria are exposed to acriflavine in buffer before they are plated on medium containing both acriflavine and a broth supplement. Thus post-irradiation effects of acriflavine cannot be accounted for in terms of a single mechanism of action. Our results support the suggestion that phenomena classed together as mutation frequency decline may not represent a single specific repair system. 相似文献

Studies on Brachionus (Rotifera): an example of interaction between fundamental and applied research
The genus Brachionus has been the main subject of studies reported in about 1000 papers published since 1950. About three-fourths of these deal with Brachionus plicatilis and B. rotundiformis and are mainly related to their use as prey for aquatic organisms. Also abundant, but to a lesser extent, are studies on B. calyciflorus, many of which are concerned with aquatic ecotoxicology. These studies constitute an interesting interaction between fundamental and applied research. For example, advances in fundamental biology have been applied to improve the production of rotifer biomass. Alternatively, new perspectives in fundamental research on rotifers have emerged while solving technical and biological problems related to the rearing of aquatic animal larvae. This review describes some aspects that have shown a significant advance due to such interaction between fundamental and applied research on rotifers, e.g. growth conditions, biochemical composition and morphotypes. 相似文献

Abstract Fluorochrome-labeled antibodies specific for either S or type-1 fimbriae of Escherichia coli were used to show that in broth culture the two fimbrial types of strain 3040 mostly occurred on different cells. 12% of the cells were nonfimbriated. A fractionation procedure that involved adsorption of bacterial cells onto erythrocytes and yeast cells was developed to isolate homogeneous subpopulations (S-fimbriated, type-1-fimbriated, and non-fimbriated) of. E. coli. The level of contamination in each isolated subpopulation was 4% at the highest. The method is useful in obtaining homogeneous bacterial populations for adherence studies and for purification of specific fimbrial antigens. 相似文献

Cytochrome P-450(cam) monooxygenase is an important bacterial redox enzyme system with potential commercial value for detoxifying trace hydrocarbon contaminants, catalyzing regiospecific hydroxylations, and amperometric biosensing. The present study was undertaken to increase productivity of this enzyme, which is induced in its host, pseudomonas putida PpG 786, by D(+)-camphor. Culture processes were studied in batch, fed-batch, and continuous modes to evaluate metabolic behavior and develop constitutive equations for specific rate of growth (mu), camphor utilization (q(p)). Fed-batch culture was characterized by an extended linear growth phase which is often encountered in hydrocarbon fermentations. Inhibition by the camphor solvent, dimethylformamide, was assessed. Production of the terminal protein of the p-450(cam) enzyme system, cytochrome m, was shown to depend on growth medium iron content in fed-batch culture and was increased by 130% over previously protocols by eliminating iron deficiency. A continuous process that enables greater production rates was developed by using oxygen enrichment while simultaneously reducing gas throughput. Camphor and oxygen requirements were determined for fedbatch and continuous growth. (c) 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Tracing isolates of bacterial species by multilocus variable number of tandem repeat analysis (MLVA)
van Belkum A 《FEMS immunology and medical microbiology》2007,49(1):22-27
All bacterial genomes contain multiple loci of repetitive DNA. Repeat unit sizes and repeat sequences may vary when multiple loci are considered for different isolates of an individual microbial species. Moreover, it has been documented on many occasions that the number of repeat units per locus is a strain-defining parameter. Consequently, there is isolate-specificity in the number of repeats per locus when different strains of a given bacterial species are compared. The experimental assessment of this variability for a number of different loci has been called 'multilocus variable number of tandem repeat analysis' (MLVA). The approach can be supported or extended by locus-specific DNA sequencing for establishing mutations in the individual repeat units, which usually enhances the resolution of the approach considerably. Essentially, MLVA with or without supportive sequencing has been developed for all of the medically relevant bacterial species and can be used effectively for tracing outbreaks or other forms of bacterial dissemination. MLVA is a modern, timely and versatile bacterial typing methodology. 相似文献

This study identified the bacterial community composition associated with Barbour's seahorses (Hippocampus barbouri). Seahorses and samples from the surrounding environment (sediment and water) were collected from Cantiasay Island in Surigao del Norte, Philippines. Genomic DNA was isolated from these samples, and the V1–V3 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified and sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq platform. There were 929 803 sequence reads corresponding to 859 operational taxonomic units (OTUs), which were obtained from the six genomic libraries. The results showed that the most abundant OTUs were affiliated to the phylum Proteobacteria, particularly those belonging to the genera Shewanella, Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter and Aeromonas, which were found to be dominant in seahorse gut samples. The only exception was for the skin of male seahorses, which was dominated by members belonging to the genus Bacillus (phylum Firmicutes). These findings on bacterial community structure and composition may shed light on therapeutic claims of Barbour's seahorses and help in the conservation of this species. 相似文献

The bacterial community inhabiting the mucus layer and surface of whiting was examined to determine whether the bacteria present are a reflection of the surrounding water or an indigenous bacterial flora is present. The outer mucus, mouth mucus and gut of four whiting harvested from a site in the Irish Sea and the surrounding water were examined by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (tRFLP) analysis of the 16S rRNA gene and clone library construction. The water community was the most diverse, with only a small number of shared water-mucus phylotypes present. The bacterial flora associated with the outer mucus layer were more diverse than that of the mouth mucus and gut. All three mucus layers were characterized by the presence of a dominant phylotype, identified as clone wom-1, highly similar to Photobacterium iliopiscarium. In addition to other Photobacterium phylotypes, members of the CFB and Clostridia groups were also detected. Subsequently, whiting from 11 different sites along the east and south coast of Ireland were compared by tRFLP analysis. Strikingly, the mucus layer of whiting at all sites was characterized by the presence and dominance of a TRF corresponding to the clone wom-1 which was virtually absent from the water column. 相似文献
