The effect of detergents, i. e. cationic, anionic, nonionic and polyelectrolytes of the cationic type on the efficacy of chloramphenicol against resistant strains of E. coli and Staph. aureus was studied. It was found that the detergent effect on inactivation of chloramphenicol by the bacterial resistant strains was inconsistent. The cationic detergents and in particular chlorhexidine had the most pronounced inhibitory effect. In subbacteriostatic concentrations they significantly suppressed inactivation of chloramphenicol in the cells of E. coli and Staph. aureus. The anionic detergents and polyelectrolytes of the cationic type in the above concentrations were effective only with respect to Staph. aureus. It is noted that the detergents increased the activity of chloramphenicol against E. coli and Staph. aureus. 相似文献

Anionic surface active substances (SAS), such as sodium alkylsulfates, iodonate, sulfanol NP-3 used in subbacteriostatic concentrations lowered at least 100 times the intensity of the erythromycin resistance plasmid in vitro on mixed cultivation of the staphylococcal cells of the donor (strain 8325/11 de) and the recipient (strain 825-1). The cationic SAS, i. e. roc cal, chlorhexidine had no such capacity. The above anionic and cationic SAS had an antiphage effect with respect to the transducing staphylococcal bacteriophages of the serological group B (80, 85, 52A, 53). Such an effect (on the example of sodium alkylsulfates) increased with prolongation of the alkyl radical from C8 to C14. A decrease in the transduction intensity of the erythromycin resistant plasmid in staphylococci was observed in the presence of the anionic SAS either possessing (alkylsulfates, iodonate) or not (sulfonol NP-3) the antiphage activity. 相似文献

It was shown that the transfer of plasmid R 100-1 during conjugation of donor and recipient cells of E. coli is suppressed under treatment of the cells by oxidative phosphorylation uncouplers. Studies on recipient cells devoid of their H+-ATPase activity due to mutation showed that the transfer of the plasmid into the cells is repressed after a switch-off of the respiratory chain, the only generator of proton motive force in the mutated cells. In the absence of arsenate the plasmid transfer from the donor into the recipient cells possessing intact H+-ATPase occurs independently of inhibition of the cell respiratory activity by cyanide. However, the presence of arsenate in the conjugation medium induces the sensitivity of the plasmid transfer process to cyanide. In the absence of cyanide the cell conjugation is suppressed by 60 mM arsenate. A kinetic study of different steps of cell conjugation showed that the generation of proton motive force in recipient cells is necessary for the occurrence of plasmid transport. It was assumed that the generation of both proton motive force and phosphorylated high energy compounds is a necessary prerequisite for plasmid transport during conjugation of donor and recipient cells. 相似文献

During conjugation and transduction of Escherichia coli even numbers of recombinational exchanges are required for replacement of a gene on the circular chromosome. We studied gene replacement using a related method of gene transfer (transformation with 6.5-kb linear DNA fragments) as an experimental model for conjugation and transduction. Two properly situated Chi sites, 5' GCTGGTGG 3', stimulated gene replacement ~50-fold, more than the sum of the stimulation by the individual Chi sites. Gene replacement was dependent on RecA and RecB functions. Similar results were obtained with an alternative experimental model in which linear DNA fragments were generated from phage λ by intracellular EcoRI restriction following infection. Dual Chi site-stimulation of these RecA-, RecB-dependent recombination events thus did not depend upon the mode of delivery of the linear DNA into the cells. A single DNA fragment with two Chi sites was sufficient for gene replacement. These results support a one Chi-one exchange hypothesis (``long chunk' gene replacement), stemming from studies with purified RecBCD enzyme, and argue against models in which Chi converts RecBCD enzyme to a state capable of promoting multiple exchanges on one DNA molecule. These results also provide a method for gene targeting in wild-type E. coli and suggest a method for gene targeting in other organisms. 相似文献

Transformation of Nicotiana tabacum leaf explants was attempted with Escherichia coli as a DNA donor either alone or in combination with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. We constructed E. coli donor strains harboring either the promiscuous IncP-type or IncN-type conjugal transfer system and second plasmids containing the respective origins of transfer and plant-selectable markers. Neither of these conjugation systems was able to stably transform plant cells at detectable levels, even when VirE2 was expressed in the donor cells. However, when an E. coli strain expressing the IncN-type conjugation system was coinoculated with a disarmed A. tumefaciens strain, plant tumors arose at high frequencies. This was caused by a two-step process in which the IncN transfer system mobilized the entire shuttle plasmid from E. coli to the disarmed A. tumefaciens strain, which in turn processed the T-DNA and transferred it to recipient plant cells. The mobilizable plasmid does not require a broad-host-range replication origin for this process to occur, thus reducing its size and genetic complexity. Tumorigenesis efficiency was further enhanced by incubation of the bacterial strains on medium optimized for bacterial conjugation prior to inoculation of leaf explants. These techniques circumvent the need to construct A. tumefaciens strains containing binary vectors and could simplify the creation of transgenic plants. 相似文献

RSF1010 is a naturally occurring Escherichia coli broad host-range plasmid about 8.7 kb in size. It can be mobilized at high frequency between different gram-negative bacterial species when transfer functions are available in trans. Following the pioneering work of conjugational transfer of RSF1010 from E. coli to Streptomyces lividans and Mycobacterium smegmatis, the transfer of this plasmid by conjugation from E. coli S17.1 tp two gram-positive rare actinomycetes, Nocardia asteroides 3927 and Streptoverticillum caespitosus ATCC27422 was first time reported in this study. Southern blot analysis of the total DNA extracted from the actinomycetes' exconjugants proved that RSF1010 had been transferred from E. coli into the two new hosts and maintained staby in the exconjugants. Meanwhile, partial deletions of RSF1010 replicon loosing its antibiotics resistance makers were readily detected in E. coli. The implenmentation of this observation was discussed. 相似文献

The study dealth with effects of cationic detergents miramistin (alkylamidopropyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride), catamine AB (alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride) and the anionic compound sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) on the elimination from E. coli cells of plasmids determining the Hly, Ent and, indirectly, Col, F, and R markers of pathogenicity as well as their transfer upon conjugation. At subbacteriostatic concentrations, miramistin and catamine AB were found to suppress the transfer of Hly, Ent, F, and R plasmids during conjugation when applied to the donor, recipient or added to the conjugation medium without, however, eliminating plasmids. This is due to the disruption by detergents of F, J pili and other surface cell structures resulting in diminished ability to conjugate. Anionic SDS eliminated F and R plasmids without affecting Hly, Ent and Col. 相似文献

the mutation that causes ribonuclease III (RNase III) deficiency in strain AB301-105 of Kindler et al. (1973) has been mapped by use of F' merodiploids, Hfr matings, and P1 transduction. This mutation, rnc-105, lies close to nadB, near 49 min on the genetic map of Escherichia coli. The rnc-105 mutation has been transferred from its original genetic background by transduction and conjugation, and these new strains have the same defects in ribonucleic acid processing reported previously for AB301-105. Strains that carry rnc-105 grow more slowly than parental rnc+ strains, but the difference in growth rate seems to depend on the genetic background of each strain. Bacteriophage T7 grows about equally well in RNase III+ and III- female strains of E. coli, even though the specific cuts that RNase III makes in T7 ribonucleic acid are not made in the RNase III- strains. A low-phosphate defined medium in which most E. coli strains seem to grow well was developed. This medium is equally useful for labeling ribonucleic acids with 32PO4 and as a selective medium for genetic manipulations. It was used to determine the growth requirements of strain AB301-105, which are biotin and succinate in addition to the methionine and histidine requirements of the parental strain. The biotin mutation lies near the position expected from known mutations of E. coli, but the succinate mutation apparently does not. The possibility that the succinate requirement could be due to the RNase III deficiency is discussed. A uraP mutation was isolated for use in transferring rnc-105 between strains by conjugation. It lies near 47 min, somewhat removed from the commonly accepted position for uraP. 相似文献

Temperature bacteriophage 59 of Erwinia carotovera 268 had transduced extrachromosomal DNA: plasmids of R68.45 and S-a. Before plasmid transduction experiments the suitable donor strains of indicator culture Erwinia horticola 450 harbouring R68.45 and S-a were created. The frequency of plasmid R68.45 transfer from Pseudomonas putida to E. horticola 450-8 by conjugation was equal to 5 x 10(-8) per a donor cell and in the case of S-a--from E. coli C600 for the same recipient cells--was 2 x 10(-6). Bacteriophage 59 has transduced only separate markers of plasmid R68.45, since plasmid S-a is probably transduced by the phage as an intact unit. 相似文献

Gramicidin S response of metal resistant mutants of E. coli B and the effect of concentrations of Cu2+, Ag+, Co2+ and Cd2+ on the growth and sensitivity of E. coli B to cationic antibiotics, i.e. gramicidin S2+ and streptomycin2+, were studied. It was shown that the metal-cumulating mutants of E. coli B with two different mechanisms of cross resistance to Cu2+, Cd2+ and Ag+ had higher sensitivity to gramicidin S than the initial wild type strain of E. coli B. It was found that in the threshold or higher doses the salts of Cu, Ag, Co and Cd increased the gramicidin S antimicrobial action on actively metabolizing cells of E. coli B. Analysis of the experimental data as well as the literature ones suggested that the synergic action of gramicidin S and the heavy metals stemmed from an increase in the cationic conductivity of the cytoplasma membrane modified by the metals in the threshold doses which induced an increase in the transport and accumulation of the cations in the bacterial cells by the electric field gradient (with the negative sign inside). Withdrawal of Ca2+ and Mg2+ from the E. coli outer structures into the cytoplasm impaired the barrier properties of the outer membrane and promoted binding of the gramicidin S cations to the liberated anionic groups of the E. coli outer structures and potentiation of the gramicidin S antimicrobial activity as was shown in our experiments. 相似文献

A new series of 10-substituted 5,5-dioxo-5,10-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-b]-[1,2,4]benzothiadiazine arylsulfonamide derivatives (10a-j and 13a-f) was synthesized. The structures of these compounds were confirmed on the basis of spectral data, elemental analysis, X-ray analysis, and quantum chemical calculations. These compounds were evaluated for their efficacy as antibacterial agents against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains of bacteria. Amongst these compounds 10f and 10i were the most active compounds against Escherichia coli and 13e against E. coli as well as Bacillus subtilis. Moreover, other compounds also showed potent inhibitory activity in comparison to the standard drugs. 相似文献

An R plasmid Rts1 was integrated into the gal region of the chromosome of Escherichia coli XA-7012 (galE) strain by the directed transposition technique. The integration of the Rts1 genome was confirmed mainly by conjugation studies and also by transduction experiments using phage P1. As a result, it was found that the integrated genome contained genes responsible for kanamycin resistance, conjugal transferability, and for autonomous replication. As reported previously, Rts1 is temperature sensitive in replication and inhibits the growth of the host at nonpermissive temperature. However, although a plasmid derived from the integrated Rts1 genome still demonstrates temperature sensitivity upon transfer and high level of kanamycin resistance, this plasmid no longer displays temperature sensitivity in replication and the inhibitory effect on the host. These results indicate that the temperature sensitivity of replication of Rts1 and its inhibitory effect on the host cell are due to the presence of a gene or gene cluster on the Rts1 genome and that the gene(s) is clearly discriminated from the one responsible for the temperature sensitivity of transfer. 相似文献

It was shown that the presence of colicinogenis plasmid ColIb-P9 increased the survival of UV-irradiated bacteriophage lambda cI857 in non-irradiated cells of Escherichia coli K-12. The effect of this plasmid was retained in the polA and recB mutants, being sharply reduced in the uvrA and recB recC sbcB recF mutants. This effect strongly depended on recA+ and lexA+ genotype. The W-reactivation efficiency was slightly higher in the cells containing ColIb-P9 than in those lacking the plasmid. No significant effect of the plasmid on recombination during transduction, after conjugation under usual conditions and in the case when a conjugation mixture or recipient cells were irradiated, was observed. The data demonstrate that the effect of ColIb-P9 plasmid on DNA repair is not mediated by its influence on recombination. 相似文献

A series of analogues of efrapeptin C (1), with variations in the central tripeptide epitope (positions 6-8), were prepared by a combination of solid- and solution-phase peptide syntheses. The conformations of the modified compounds 2-6 were investigated by circular-dichroism (CD) spectroscopy to differentiate between 3(10)- and alpha-helical secondary structures. The inhibitory activities of the new compounds towards F(1)-ATPase from E. coli were determined. The modified congeners 3-5 were less active by one order of magnitude compared to 1 (K(i) 10 microM), and 6 was completely inactive. Our experiments demonstrate that the flexible, central tripeptide epitope, comprising positions 6-8 in 1, is crucial for molecular recognition, even slight sequence modifications being hardly tolerated. 相似文献

The paper deals with a mutant of Escherichia coli K-12 obtained by transposon Tn5 mutagenesis. Insertion of this transposon inactivated the gene for L-threonine dehydrogenase catalysing the first step of L-threonine degradation. The insertion of Tn5 was mapped by using conjugation as well as transduction by T4GT7 and P1. It is located at 81 min of the E. coli genetic map between mtl and pyrE genes. 相似文献

As potential inhibitors of Escherichia coli pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E1 (PDHc E1), a series of novel 2-methylpyrimidine-4-ylamine derivatives were designed based on the structure of the active site of PDHc E1 and synthesized using 'click chemistry'. Their inhibitory activity in vitro against PDHc E1 and fungicidal activity were examined. Some of these compounds such as 3g, 3l, 3n, 3o, and 5b demonstrated to be effective inhibitors of PDHc E1 from E. coli and exhibited antifungal activity. SAR analysis indicated that both, the inhibitory potency against E. coli PDHc E1 and the antifungal activity of title compounds, could be increased greatly by optimizing substituent groups in the compounds. The structures of substituent group in 5-position on the 1,2,3-triazole and 4-position on the benzene ring in title compounds were found to play a pivotal role in both above-mentioned biological activities. Amongst all the compounds, compound 5b with iodine in the 5-position of 1,2,3-triazole and with nitryl group in the 4-position of benzene ring acted as the best inhibitor against PDHc E1 from E. coli. It was also found to be the most effective compound with higher antifungal activity against Rhizoctonia solani and Botrytis cinerea at the dosage of 100 μg mL(-1). Therefore, in this study, compound 5b was used as a lead compound for further optimization. 相似文献
