The dnaH mutant strain HF4704S, isolated by Sakai et al. (1974), was examined for its effect on phiX174 deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis. It was found to carry two mutations affecting DNA synthesis. One mutation had no affect on phiX174 DNA synthesis, but did affect the ability of the mutant cells to form colonies on agar medium at 41 degrees C, and caused host DNA synthesis to cease after 1 h at 41 degrees C. The mutant marker cotransduced with ilvD at a frequency of about 9%. It seems likely that this mutation is in the dnaA gene. The second mutation affected the ability of the mutant cells to form colonies on agar medium supplemented with only 2 mug of thymine per ml, and affected both host and phiX174 DNA synthesis in medium supplemented with only 2 mug of thymine per ml. Both effects could be overcone by adding excess exogenous thymine. We were not able to unambiguously determine the map position of this mutant locus. Our data show that the DNA synthesis phenotype of the mutant strain HE4704S is governed by both these mutations, neither of which directly affects the replication of phiX174 DNA. 相似文献

The effect of gyrase inactivation on gene expression was studied by examining the activities of different promoters in a temperature-sensitive gyrB mutant of Escherichia coli. The relative activities of promoters affected by cAMP-binding protein (CAP), e.g., the lac promoter, are not reduced by gyrase inactivation but can, on the contrary, be enhanced. This stimulation depends on the promoter location or its structure. The tnaA promoter is activated when located near the origin of replication, suggesting a differential effect of gyrase inactivation on various chromosomal domains. Only silent or mutant promoters such as the non-functional wild-type bgl or the lacIq can be activated. No differential effect of gyrase inactivation on the lambda pL and the trp promoters carried by the phage can be detected. 相似文献

Previous experiments with Escherichia coli strain 2S142 have shown that the synthesis of stable RNA is preferentially blocked at the restrictive temperature. In this paper, we have examined the capacity of this mutant strain to synthesize RNA in vitro. Growth of the strain for as short a period as 10 min at 42 degrees C resulted in a 40 to 60% loss of RNA synthetic capacity and a fourfold decrease in percent rRNA synthesized in toluenized cell preparations. The time course for the loss and recovery of this RNA synthetic capacity correlated very well with the changes in RNA synthesis observed in vivo. We found no difference in temperature sensitivity of the purified RNA polymerase from the mutant and the parental strains. Moreover, there was no detectable alteration in the amount of enzyme, specific activity of the enzyme, or electrophoretic mobility of the subunits when the mutant strain was grown at 42 degrees C. The capacity for rRNA synthesis was also measured with the Zubay in vitro system (Reiness et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 72:2881-2885, 1975). Supernatant fractions (S-30) prepared from cells grown at 30 degrees C were capable of up to 31.2% rRNA synthesis, using phi 80d3 DNA as template. S-30 fractions from cells grown at 42 degrees C synthesized 8.6% rRNA. The bottom one-third of the S-100 fraction and the ribosomal salt wash from 30 degrees C cells contained one or more factors which partially restored preferential rRNA synthesis in S-30 fractions from cells grown at 42 degrees C. Preliminary evidence suggests that the factor(s) is protein in nature. 相似文献

extracts contain UDP-galactose:NAD+ 2-hexosyl oxidoreductase (1). ADP-ribose also serves as a substrate resulting in formation of NADH and an oxidized ADP-ribose derivative. Treatment of the oxidized product with NaBH4 followed by hydrolysis at pH 2 and 100° releases xylose as well as ribose. We conclude that ADP-D--D--3-pentosulose (ADP-3-ketoribose) is the product derived from ADP-ribose. 相似文献

A single-site mutant of Escherichia coli K-12 able to grow in minimal medium in the presence of D-serine at 30 C but not at 42 C was isolated. The mutant forms a D-serine deaminase that is much more sensitive to thermal denaturation in vitro at temperatures above but not below 47 C than that of the wild type. No detectable enzyme is formed by the mutant at 42 C, however, and very little is formed at 37 C. The mutant enzyme is probably more sensitive to intracellular inactivation at high temperatures than the wild-type enzyme. The mutation lies in the dsdA region. The mutant also contains a dsdO mutation, which does not permit hyperinduction of D-serine deaminase synthesis. 相似文献

Summary On exposure to high temperature of a temperature-sensitive RNA polymerase subunit (rpoC92) mutant of Escherichia coli, selective reduction was observed in the rate of synthesis of a group of proteins including RNA polymerase subunit. The finding that the synthesis of subunit but not subunit was specifically repressed in this mutant grown at non-permissive temperature indicates that the functionally intact RNA polymerase is required for the synthesis of subunits be coordinated. In addition, the assembly of newly synthesized RNA polymerase subunits was inefficient in this mutant at the steps where altered subunit was involved, and the unassembled enzyme subunits were rapidly and preferentially degraded. During recovery to non-restricted growth, the synthesis of both and subunits was transiently enhanced in parallel leading to recovery of the intracellular concentration of functional RNA polymerase. 相似文献

The temperature-sensitive conjugational transfer-deficient mutant Escherichia coli JCFL39, carrying a traD(Ts) mutation, is herein described as also being temperature sensitive for group I RNA phages (MS2, f2, and R17) but not for Q beta. Temperature shift experiments showed that the growth of group I phage MS2 in the mutant could be inhibited by a post-penetration event at high temperature. A possible role for the traD cistron of sex factor F in the intracellular development of MS2 is suggested. 相似文献

A temperature-sensitive dnaK mutant (strain MT112) was isolated from Escherichia coli B strain H/r30RT by thymineless death selection at 43 degrees C. By genetic mapping, the mutation [dnaK7(Ts)] was located near the thr gene (approximately 0.2 min on the may). E. coli K-12 transductants of the mutation to temperature sensitivity were assayed for their susceptibility to transducing phage lambda carrying the dnaK and/or the dnaJ gene. All of the transductants were able to propagate phage lambda carrying the dnaK gene. When macromolecular synthesis of the mutant was assayed at 43 degrees C, it was observed that both deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid syntheses were severely inhibited. Thus, it was suggested that the conditionally defective dnaK mutation affects both cellular deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid syntheses at the nonpermissive temperature in addition to inability to propagate phage lambda at permissive temperature. 相似文献

A mutant strain SM434 (ttr-3) of Escherichia coli that exhibits a temperature-sensitive Unc(succinate-nonutilizing) phenotype was characterized. The mutant allele ttr-3 was not linked to the ilvA gene, but was complemented by Fill carrying 81 min-91 min of the E. coli chromosome. The mutant strain SM434 exhibited resistance to N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) and a temperature-sensitive phenotype at the level of ATP synthesis, compatible with that of cell growth. These findings indicate that the mutant strain SM434 could carry a mutation (ttr-3) in an unknown gene responsible for the energy-transduction system. 相似文献

A temperature-sensitive mutant of Escherichia coli K-12 isolated previously (H. Ohsawa and B. Maruo, J. Bacteriol. 127:1157-1166, 1976) was found to have an alteration in asparaginyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase. This alteration can account for the temperature-sensitive phenotype of the mutant. No evidence was obtained to support the previous suggestion that ribosomal protein S1 is altered in this mutant. Combined with the previous genetic studies, we conclude that the newly defined genetic locus, asnS, for the asparaginyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase maps near pyrD at 21 min on the E. coli chromosome. 相似文献
