Intergenotic Transformation of the Bacillus subtilis Genospecies

A multiple auxotrophic derivative of Bacillus subtilis 168 (strain BR151 carrying lys-3, trpC2, metB10) was transformed with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) isolated from B. subtilis 168, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens H, B. subtilis HSR, Bacillus pumilus, and Bacillus licheniformis. Transformation with heterologous DNA occurred at a very low frequency for the three auxotrophic markers. Heterologous transformation to rifampin resistance was 100 to 1,000 times more efficient than transformation to prototrophy. Transformants from the various heterologous exchanges were used to prepare donor DNA. The fragment of integrated DNA from the heterologous (foreign) species, termed the "intergenote," was capable of transforming BR151 with an efficiency almost equal to that of homologous DNA. When BR151 DNA contained the Rfm(R) (rifampin resistance) intergenote from B. amyloliquefaciens H, the frequency of transformation was frequently greater than that of the homologous DNA. Accompanying this increased efficiency was a marked change in the physiology of the cells. The growth rate of the transformants carrying this intergenote was approximately one-half that of either parental strain. Thus, in a prokaryotic transformation system, adverse side effects can occur after incorporation of a segment of foreign DNA.

High-Salinity-Induced Iron Limitation in Bacillus subtilis

Proteome analysis of Bacillus subtilis cells grown at low and high salinity revealed the induction of 16 protein spots and the repression of 2 protein spots, respectively. Most of these protein spots were identified by mass spectrometry. Four of the 16 high-salinity-induced proteins corresponded to DhbA, DhbB, DhbC, and DhbE, enzymes that are involved in the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (DHB) and its modification and esterification to the iron siderophore bacillibactin. These proteins are encoded by the dhbACEBF operon, which is negatively controlled by the central iron regulatory protein Fur and is derepressed upon iron limitation. We found that iron limitation and high salinity derepressed dhb expression to a similar extent and that both led to the accumulation of comparable amounts of DHB in the culture supernatant. DHB production increased linearly with the degree of salinity of the growth medium but could still be reduced by an excess of iron. Such an excess of iron also partially reversed the growth defect exhibited by salt-stressed B. subtilis cultures. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that B. subtilis cells grown at high salinity experience iron limitation. In support of this notion, we found that the expression of several genes and operons encoding putative iron uptake systems was increased upon salt stress. The unexpected finding that high-salinity stress has an iron limitation component might be of special ecophysiological importance for the growth of B. subtilis in natural settings, in which bioavailable iron is usually scarce.     

Bacillus subtilis mutants dependent on streptomycin

Summary Six streptomycin-dependent mutants of Bacillus subtilis, two of which were asporogenous, were isolated. All six mutants, SD1, SD2, SD6, SD7, SD9 and SD10, contained a single mutation causing streptomycin dependence and asporogeny, but four of these mutants (SD6, SD7, SD9, SD10) contained a second mutation which phenotypically suppressed the asporogenous character of the streptomycin dependence mutation. All six mutants grew more slowly than the wild type strain BR151, but those defective in sporulation grew the slowest. The streptomycin dependence mutations of SD9 and SD10B (a sporeplus transformant from SD10 carrying both the dependence mutation and the phenotypic suppressor) lie near or possibly within the strA locus. Ribosomes from SD9, SD10A (a spore-minus transformant from SD10 carrying only the dependence mutation), and SD10B were stimulated in vitro by concentrations of streptomycin that inhibit the activity of wild type strain BR151 ribosomes. The level of misreading as measured by poly(U)-directed isoleucine incorporation was greatly enhanced by streptomycin in wild type strain BR151 ribosomes, but misreading of mutant SD9, SD10A, and SD10B ribosomes, irrespective of the sporulation phenotype, was little affected by streptomycin. There were no apparent differences in the patterns obtained by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the 70S ribosomal proteins of the mutants SD9, SD10A, SD10B, and wild type strain BS151.

Induction of stringent response by streptomycin in Bacillus subtilis cells

A stringent response was induced in Bacillus subtilis vegetative cells by streptomycin. This was confirmed as follows: In B. subtilis stringent cells (BR16S), stable RNA synthesis was repressed, and pppGpp and ppGpp were transiently synthesized in the presence of required amino acids and streptomycin. However, these phenomena were not observed in the isogenic relaxed strain (BR16R) under the same conditions. On the other hand, tetracyclines did not induce the response, and, moreover, the stringent response to streptomycin upon pretreatment of the stringent cells with the antibiotics was released.
