光复活对紫外线照射大肠杆菌后突变率的影响 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
通过改变UV照射时间、照射后的操作速度、光复活时的温度、时间和光强度,以光复活和暗处理后细胞存活数的比值为依据,研究了不同条件下E.coli受UV照射后的光复活效应。并以E.coli对5μg/ml链霉素抗性突变率为指标,比较了不同剂量UV照射后光复活和暗处理对E.coli突变率的影响。结果表明:光复活效应在温度10℃时最明显,且与照射时间、照射后的操作速度、光复活时间和光强度成正相关;在中、低剂量UV照射后,暗处理较光复活后E.coli对链霉素抗性突变率明显高,而在高剂量下,光复活则显著高于暗处理后的突变率。 相似文献

The effect of various stages of the irradiation processing of beef on the injury and inactivation of radiation-resistant Moraxella-Acinetobactor cells was studied. Moraxella-Acinetobacter cells were more resistant to heat inactivation and injury when heated in meat with salts (0.75% NaCl and 0.375% sodium tripolyphosphate) then in meat without salts. These salts had no effect on radiation resistance. Both radiation- and heat-injured cells were unable to form colonies at 30 degrees C in plate count agar containing 0.8% NaCl. Neither unstressed nor heat-stressed cells were able to multiply in minced beef incubated at 30 degrees C for 12 h. Only after the beef was diluted 1:10 with peptone water were the heat-injured cells able to repair and eventually multiply. Heated cells were more sensitive to radiation inactivation and injury than unheated cells. After repair, the cells regained their resistance to both NaCl and irradiation. Freezing and storage at -40 degrees C for 14 days had only a slight effect on either unstressed or heat-stressed cells. 相似文献

The thermal inactivation and injury (sensitivity to 0.8% NaCl) of a radiation-resistant culture of Moraxella-Acinetobacter mixed in minced beef were determined. Survival curves for Moraxella-Acinetobacter cells in beef had an initial shoulder preceding a logarithmic decline when the cells were heated at 65, 70, and 75 degrees C, but not at 80 degrees C. In all cases, the experimental points not included in the shoulder were linearized by means of a least-squares straight line, and the latter was used to determine D values. Shoulder values of 12.2, 4.1, and 0.6 min at temperatures of 65, 70, and 75 degrees C were added to the respective D values of 35.4, 6.6, and 1.4 min to determine the time required to destroy one log cycle. The Z value was 7.3 degrees C. Moraxella-Acinetobacter cells in meat were more rapidly injured than inactivated, on initial exposure to heat. The number of cells injured by this initial exposure increased as the temperature was increased. At 65 degrees C the percentage of injured cells increased more rapidly with exposure time than did the inactivated cells. As the temperature was increased, the rates of inactivation and injury became more and more similar. 相似文献

Physiological age-dependent variation in radiation resistance was studied for three bacteria that are highly radiation resistant: Micrococcus radiodurans, Micrococcus sp. isolate C-3, and Moraxella sp. isolate 4. Stationary-phase cultures of M. radiodurans and isolate C-3 were much more resistant to gamma radiation than were log-phase cultures. This pattern of relative resistance was reversed for isolate 4. Resistance of isolate 4 to UV light was also greater during log phase, although heat resistance and NaCl tolerance after heat stress were greater during stationary phase. Radiation-induced injury of isolate 4 compared with injury of Escherichia coli B suggested that the injury process, as well as the lethal process, was affected by growth phase. The hypothesis that growth rate affects radiation resistance was tested, and results were interpreted in light of the probable confounding effect of methods used to alter growth rates of bacteria. These results indicate that dose-response experiments should be designed to measure survival during the most resistant growth phase of the organism under study. This timing is particularly important when extrapolations of survival results might be made to potential irradiation processes for foods. 相似文献

The genome of a radiation-resistant bacterium, Deinococcus radiodurans, contains one uvsE gene and two uvrA genes, uvrA1 and uvrA2. Using a series of mutants lacking these genes, we determined the biological significance of these components to UV resistance. The UV damage endonuclease (UvsE)-dependent excision repair (UVER) pathway and UvrA1-dependent pathway show some redundancy in their function to counteract the lethal effects of UV. Loss of these pathways does not cause increased sensitivity to UV mutagenesis, suggesting either that these pathways play no function in inducing mutations or that there are mechanisms to prevent mutation other than these excision repair pathways. UVER efficiently removes both cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and pyrimidine (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4PPs) from genomic DNA. In contrast, the UvrA1 pathway does not significantly contribute to the repair of CPDs but eliminates 6-4PPs. Inactivation of uvrA2 does not result in a deleterious effect on survival, mutagenesis, or the repair kinetics of CPDs and 6-4PPs, indicating a minor role in resistance to UV. Loss of uvsE, uvrA1, and uvrA2 reduces but does not completely abolish the ability to eliminate CPDs and 6-4PPs from genomic DNA. The result indicates the existence of a system that removes UV damage yet to be identified. 相似文献

The effect of low doses of ionizing and nonionizing radiation on the radiation response of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae toward ionizing and nonionizing radiation was studied. The wild-type strain D273-10B on exposure to 54 Gy gamma radiation (resulting in about 10% cell killing) showed enhanced resistance to subsequent exposure to UV radiation. This induced UV resistance increased with the incubation time between the initial gamma radiation stress and the UV irradiation. Exposure to low doses of UV light on the other hand showed no change in gamma or UV radiation response of this strain. The strains carrying a mutation at rad52 behaved in a way similar to the wild type, but with slightly reduced induced response. In contrast to this, the rad3 mutants, defective in excision repair, showed no induced UV resistance. Removal of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers in wild-type yeast DNA after UV irradiation was examined by analyzing the sites recognized by UV endonuclease from Micrococcus luteus. The samples that were exposed to low doses of gamma radiation before UV irradiation were able to repair the pyrimidine dimers more efficiently than the samples in which low gamma irradiation was omitted. The nature of enhanced repair was studied by scoring the frequency of induced gene conversion and reverse mutation at trp and ilv loci respectively in strain D7, which showed similar enhanced UV resistance induced by low-dose gamma irradiation. The induced repair was found to be essentially error-free. These results suggest that irradiation of strain D273-10B with low doses of gamma radiation enhances its capability for excision repair of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers. 相似文献

Bacterial mutation frequency after UV irradiation and phage mutation frequency under conditions of W-reactivation were determined in A. calcoaceticus. With the exception of streptomycin resistance, there was no increase in the frequency of the assayed markers above the background level. The increased survival of phage during W-reactivation was not followed by an increase in the frequency of mutation from turbid to clear plaque formers among phage survivors. The findings suggested that the UV-inducible repair pathway in A. calcoaceticus was error free. Post-irradiation incubation of UV-treated culture before phage infection resulted in a further increase of W-reactivation. As chloramphenicol inhibited this response, it was concluded that de novo protein synthesis was involved in the UV-inducible repair pathway in A. calcoaceticus. 相似文献

Isolation of five ionizing radiation (IR)-resistant bacteria by screening of isolates from various habitats classified as common and stressed is reported. IR-resistant isolates exhibited varying degrees of resistance to gamma-radiation and were classified as highly and moderately radiation resistant. Resistance to ultraviolet (UV) radiation correlated well with gamma-radiation resistance, whereas a comparable desiccation resistance for all the highly and moderately radiation-resistant isolates was observed. However, salt tolerance failed to correlate with IR resistance, indicating a divergent evolution of the salt tolerance and radiation resistance. Characterization of isolates by the amplified rDNA restriction analysis profiling attested to the clustering of these isolates with their stress phenotype. 16S rRNA gene-based analysis of the isolates showed that the bacteria with similar-resistance physiologies clustered together and belonged to related genera. Hydrogen peroxide resistance and mitomycin survival patterns of the isolates indicated the roles of oxidative-stress tolerance in desiccation survival and recombination repair in higher radiation resistance, respectively. 相似文献

Two new UV-sensitive mutants of Chlamydomonas, UVS10 and UVS11, were isolated. Both behave as single nuclear mutations. UVS10 was mapped to linkage group I. UVS11 is a separate, unlinked mutation but has not yet been located to a specific linkage group. Both mutants are proficient in the excision of pyrimidine dimers from nuclear DNA. The survival of UV-irradiated UVS11 is increased when plated in the presence of 1.5 mM caffeine, similar to wild-type. Caffeine has no effect on the survival of UV-irradiated UVS10. UV-irradiated UVS11 frequently divides at least once before dying, in contrast to UVS10 or wild-type. UVS11 also exhibits a much increased frequency of mutation to streptomycin resistance after UV irradiation. 相似文献

Summary A continuous-flow UV-induced mutation device which incorporates starting strain cultivation, UV irradiation and mutant reproduction was conceptualized and tested in this study using streptomycin resistance as an indicator of mutant production. For the experimental conditions employed and populations used, the mutation frequency for streptomycin resistance ranged from 10–4 to 10–5 cfu/ml. These mutation frequencies are comparable with conventional batch UV mutation methods and represent a gain of 3 orders of magnitude over the spontaneous mutation frequency. 相似文献

The effect of the CAM-OCT plasmid on responses to UV irradiation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa recA mutants was characterized. Mutant alleles examined included rec-1, rec-2, and recA7::Tn501. The plasmid substantially enhanced both survival and mutagenesis of RecA- cells after treatment with UV light. Survival of the RecA-(CAM-OCT) cells after UV irradiation was intermediate between that seen in the wild-type P. aeruginosa PAO1 and the increased survival seen in PAO1(CAM-OCT) cells. Mutability was quantitated by the reversion to carbenicillin resistance of strains carrying a bla(Am) mutation on a derivative of plasmid RP1. UV-induced mutagenesis of CAM-OCT carrying recA mutants occurred at levels comparable to that seen in PAO1(CAM-OCT). The ability of CAM-OCT plasmid to suppress the recombination deficiency in recA mutants was tested by assaying for bacteriophage F116L-generalized transduction of a Tn7 insertion in the alkane utilization genes of CAM-OCT. Transduction of the Tn7 insertion was not detected in RecA-(CAM-OCT) strains but was easily seen in PAO1(CAM-OCT), indicating that the plasmid does not encode a recA analog. The results indicate that the CAM-OCT UV response genes are expressed in RecA- cells, which differs from results seen with other UV response-enhancing plasmids. The results suggest that CAM-OCT either encodes several UV responses genes itself or induces chromosomal UV response genes by an alternate mechanism. 相似文献

Representative highly radiation-resistant Moraxella-Acinetobacter (M-A), Pseudomonas radiora, Micrococcus radiodurans, and Micrococcus radiophilus exhibited a wide variety of division systems and cell wall characteristics. However, the most resistant M-A possessed unusually thick cell walls, indicating a possible role of the cell wall in radiation resistance in the M-A. Thick septation was present in most of the bacteria studied, but was absent in P. radiora, thus excluding this as a necessity for high resistance. Reliable determination of the number of division planes of the M-A for use as a taxonomic criterion was achieved by the direct observation of dividing cells. The highly resistant M-A were found to divide in multiple planes and had base compositions of 54.0 to 57.5%, unlike typical Moraxella and/or Acinetobacter species. The taxonomic position of most highly resistant bacteria remains unclear. 相似文献

Cells of Escherichia coli K-12 carrying lexA or recA mutations are more sensitive to UV radiation than corresponding wild-type cells and are defective in postreplication repair. Supressor mutations (tsl) have been described previously which increase the UV resistance of lexA uvr+, lexA uvrA, and recAI uvr+ strains, but not the resistance of recA1 uvrA strains. We have studied the effect of the tsl-1 mutation on postreplication repair and find that the enhanced survival conferred by this mutation is correlated with an increased capacity for postreplication repair. 相似文献

Various phenotypes of the resistance to aminoglycoside- and peptide-antibodies of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv were produced by single- and/or two-step selection of the parent strain. Mutants obtained by single-step selection with antibiotics were classified into ten phenotypes; one of single resistance, two of triple resistance, three of quadruple resistance, and four of sextuple resistance. There were two kinds of sextuple resistance (high resistance to enviomycin, viomycin, capreomycin, kanamycin, lividomycin). One was isolated from the parent strain by single-step selection and could be eliminated by mutation to isoniazid resistance, the other was obtained by two-step selections and was not eliminated by mutation to isoniazid resistance. Interaction between mutation to streptomycin resistance and mutation to quadruple resistance (4R phenotype) was observed. Streptomycin resistance interfered with the formation of the 4R phenotype and produced a different phenotype, KR instead of the 4R phenotype. The existence of mutation of the 4R phenotype did not usually interfere with mutation to streptomycin resistance, but a small portion of the mutants with the 4R phenotype were altered in their phenotype from 4R to KR after addition of the mutation to streptomycin resistance. This effect of the mutation to streptomycin resistance was not observed in mutants which already had a mutation to klR phenotype (mutation to low concentrations of kanamycin only). 相似文献

Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells that contain a mutation within rad9 are sensitive to ionizing radiation, UV light and hydroxyurea, relative to wild-type strains. In addition, the mutants are moderately hypomutable by UV and unable to delay initiation of mitosis after treatment with radiation or hydroxyurea. Three radioresistant derivatives of rad9::ura4 cells were isolated, and each contained a single unique extragenic suppressor responsible for the acquired resistance. The suppressor loci also conferred radioresistance upon cells containing rad9-192, which differs from rad9(+) by a single base pair change. The suppressors additionally enhanced the radioresistance of cells containing rad3-136, a mutation that leads to phenotypes similar to those mediated by rad9::ura4. None of the derivatives of rad9::ura4 cells recovered the ability to delay cycling in G2 after exposure to ionizing radiation or UV light. All three suppressor derivatives, relative to the parental rad9::ura4 strain, also exhibited a moderate increase in resistance to the DNA replication inhibitor hydroxyurea without gaining the ability to stop progression into mitosis despite the inhibition of DNA synthesis. Results are discussed in terms of models to explain the putative role of rad9 and the suppressor genes in promoting radioresistance and mediating checkpoint controls responsive to DNA damage or incomplete DNA replication. 相似文献

Resistance to radiation therapy constitutes a significant challenge in the treatment of head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). Alteration in DNA methylation is thought to play a role in this resistance. Here, we analyzed DNA methylation changes in a matched model of radiation resistance for HNSCC using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip. Our results show that compared to radiation-sensitive cells (SCC-61), radiation-resistant cells (rSCC-61) had a significant increase in DNA methylation. After combining these results with microarray gene expression data, we identified 84 differentially methylated and expressed genes between these 2 cell lines. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis revealed ILK signaling, glucocorticoid receptor signaling, fatty acid α-oxidation, and cell cycle regulation as top canonical pathways associated with radiation resistance. Validation studies focused on CCND2, a protein involved in cell cycle regulation, which was identified as hypermethylated in the promoter region and downregulated in rSCC-61 relative to SCC-61 cells. Treatment of rSCC-61 and SCC-61 with the DNA hypomethylating agent 5-aza-2''deoxycitidine increased CCND2 levels only in rSCC-61 cells, while treatment with the control reagent cytosine arabinoside did not influence the expression of this gene. Further analysis of HNSCC data from The Cancer Genome Atlas found increased methylation in radiation-resistant tumors, consistent with the cell culture data. Our findings point to global DNA methylation status as a biomarker of radiation resistance in HNSCC, and suggest a need for targeted manipulation of DNA methylation to increase radiation response in HNSCC. 相似文献

Mutational synergism between heat and UV light in Escherichia coli was examined for evidence supporting various possible synergistic mechanims. UV and heat lethality were only additive or slightly synergistic after 30 sec at 50°C. The order of treatment did not affect the mutational synergism. Synergism is not peculiar to induction of mutation from streptomycin sensitivity to resistance. Neither DNA breakage nor alteration of post-replication repair rates was seen after a 5 min 50°C heat pulse. Synergism was observed with temperatures as low as 43°C. A strain deficient in excision repair but not post-replication repair exhibited mutational synergism, suggesting that synergism may involve the differential heat alteration of the error-prone post-replication repair process. 相似文献

E. coli K-12 and its lambda-lysogenic derivative were used to study the influence of lysogenic induction on the induction of mutants (streptomycin sensitivity to streptomycin resistance) by UV irradiation. The lambda-lysogenic strain responded to UV irradiation with increased sensitivity and with a strong reduction of the absolute mutant quantity, recovered per UV dose, as compared with the non-lysogenic parental strain. However, similar mutant freqqencies per surviving bacterium exclude the possibility that the diminished mutant recovery results from a selective killing of mutant cells by simultaneous induction of the processes of mutation and lysis. 相似文献
