In order to facilitate genetic engineering in amino-acid producing bacteria we have isolated two restriction-deficient Brevibacterium lactofermentum strains. They have been selected for their ability to obtain a high yield of plaques from CL31 phage which was grown on Corynebacterium lilium. These mutant strains do not restrict either phage DNA by transfection or DNA from the shuttle vector pBLA extracted from Escherichia coli by protoplast transformation. These mutants have also lost modification activity. We also report the presence of a restriction modification system in C. lilium ATCC 15990. 相似文献

Transfection of Corynebacterium lilium protoplasts 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A protoplast transfection system has been developed for a lysine-producing bacterium, Corynebacterium lilium, using the DNA of phage CL31. Phage CL31 is lytic and specific to C. lilium and has a genome of approximately 48 kb. The transfection procedure involves a polyethylene-glycol-mediated introduction of the DNA into lysozyme-treated cells and has a maximum efficiency of 3 X 10(4) transfectants per microgram DNA. 相似文献

RP4-mediated transfer of mobilizable plasmids in intergeneric conjugation of Escherichia coli donors with Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 is severely affected by a restriction system in the recipient that can be inactivated by a variety of exogenous stress factors. In this study a rapid test procedure based on intergeneric conjugal plasmid transfer that permitted the distinction between restriction-negative and restriction-positive C. glutamicum clones was developed. By using this procedure, clones of the restriction-deficient mutant strain C. glutamicum RM3 harboring a plasmid library of the wild-type chromosome were checked for their restriction properties. A complemented clone with a restriction-positive phenotype was isolated and found to contain a plasmid with a 7-kb insertion originating from the wild-type chromosome. This plasmid, termed pRES806, is able to complement the restriction-deficient phenotype of different C. glutamicum mutants. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of two open reading frames (orf1 and orf2) on the complementing DNA fragment. The region comprising orf1 and orf2 displayed a strikingly low G+C content and was present exclusively in C. glutamicum strains. Gene disruption experiments with the wild type proved that orf1 is essential for complementation, but inactivation of orf2 also resulted in a small but significant increase in fertility. These results were confirmed by infection assays with the bacteriophage CL31 from Corynebacterium lilium ATCC 15990. 相似文献

DNA of viral origin represents a ubiquitous element of bacterial genomes. Its integration into host regulatory circuits is a pivotal driver of microbial evolution but requires the stringent regulation of phage gene activity. In this study, we describe the nucleoid-associated protein CgpS, which represents an essential protein functioning as a xenogeneic silencer in the Gram-positive Corynebacterium glutamicum. CgpS is encoded by the cryptic prophage CGP3 of the C. glutamicum strain ATCC 13032 and was first identified by DNA affinity chromatography using an early phage promoter of CGP3. Genome-wide profiling of CgpS binding using chromatin affinity purification and sequencing (ChAP-Seq) revealed its association with AT-rich DNA elements, including the entire CGP3 prophage region (187 kbp), as well as several other elements acquired by horizontal gene transfer. Countersilencing of CgpS resulted in a significantly increased induction frequency of the CGP3 prophage. In contrast, a strain lacking the CGP3 prophage was not affected and displayed stable growth. In a bioinformatics approach, cgpS orthologs were identified primarily in actinobacterial genomes as well as several phage and prophage genomes. Sequence analysis of 618 orthologous proteins revealed a strong conservation of the secondary structure, supporting an ancient function of these xenogeneic silencers in phage-host interaction. 相似文献

We constructed a cytoplasmic proteome reference map for a glutamic acid producing Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 14067 by 2-DE and protein identification by MALDI-TOF-MS and PMF using genome database of the type strain ATCC 13032. The map allowed us to identify 166 protein spots representing 139 different proteins. A considerable strain difference was observed in the proteomic images between strains ATCC 14067 and ATCC 13032 grown under the glutamic acid production conditions, suggesting the importance of strain-specific reference map for proteomic analysis. 相似文献

The thermosensitive phenotype of strain CH31, a derivative of Corynebacterium ammoniagenes ATCC 6872, was allocated by cloning, sequencing, and genetic complementation to a single C-->T exchange in the nrdE (nucleotide reduction) gene at nucleotide 1301. Protein modeling indicates the impaired surface hydrophobicity of NrdE(Ts) due to the S434F transition. 相似文献

Summary Twelve isometric-headed bacteriophages virulent against Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus were differentiated into three subgroups by analysis of the phage genomes and the structural proteins. Subgroup I is composed of two phages (P6 and P8) with a genome size of 41.2 and 44.2 kb pairs, respectively, complete DNA homology, and identical protein composition (main proteins of sizes 39.8, 24.0, 14.8 kilodaltons in sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). One phage (a10/J9) with low DNA homology to the other phages was classified into subgroup II. Subgroup III consists of nine phages with a genome size of 33.8 to 36.7 kb pairs and two major structural proteins (30.9 and 24.0 kilodaltons, or 30.9 and 26.3 kilodaltons). In general, phages with different host spectra revealed different restriction enzyme patterns, and DNA homologies of various degrees were detected among all phages tested. 相似文献

A temperate phage was induced by mitomycin C fromLeuconostoc oenos strain 1002, a New Zealand isolate. The phage has an isometric head (52 ± 3 nm) with a tail (210 ± 10 nm) and gives a lytic burst size of 25 when grown on a sensitive strain. Three major structural proteins of 43, 30 and 14 kDa are visible by Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). A restriction map of the 36-kb genome was determined. Commercially availableL. oenos strains PSU-1, ML34 and Lco23 and 46.6% of New Zealand isolates were sensitive to the phage. 相似文献

IS1207 is the insertion most frequently found among the spontaneous mutations that abolish the activity of an Escherichia coli phage lambda cI gene integrated in the Corynebacterium Brevibacterium lactofermentum ATCC21086 genome. We examined the transposition of transposon-like structures composed of a selective kanamycin resistance gene (aph3), and one or two IS1207 sequences. One of these, the Tn5531 transposon, transposed efficiently in Corynebacterium glutamicum. A replicative and a non-replicative Tn5531 delivery vector were used in Tn5531 mutagenesis. As IS1207, transposon Tn5531 shows a high frequency of transposition and mutagenesis, and a low target specificity. These features make of Tn5531 an adequate choice for gene identification and gene tagging experiments. 相似文献

Eighteen related strains of Arthrobacter, Brevibacterium and Corynebacterium were used as indicator strains in an attempt to isolate corynephages from a large number of soils and from waste-water samples. Although no phages capable of producing plaques were isolated, one of the indicator strains used, Brevibacterium flavum ATCC 14067, was lysogenic for the inducible phage phi GA1. This phage was not observed to form plaques on any of the strains tested. phi GA1 is of B1-morphotype with a linear double-stranded DNA genome of 48.1 kb with cohesive ends; a restriction map is presented. 相似文献

Urealytic strains of coryneform bacteria that are designated Corynebacterium group D2 and are isolated from human urine are a cause of urinary tract infections. Cell wall and lipid analyses confirmed that these organisms are members of the genus Corynebacterium but can be separated from other species in the genus on the basis of DNA base composition and DNA-DNA hybridization values. Biochemically, strains in this taxon can be distinguished from other Corynebacterium spp. by their failure to produce acid from carbohydrates, by their failure to reduce nitrates, and by their ability to hydrolyze urea. We regard these bacteria as a new species of the genus Corynebacterium and propose the name Corynebacterium urealyticum. The type strain is strain NCTC 12011 (= ATCC 43042). 相似文献

The activity of bacteriophages and phage-related mobile elements is a major source for genome rearrangements and genetic instability of their bacterial hosts. The genome of the industrial amino acid producer Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 contains three prophages (CGP1, CGP2, and CGP3) of so far unknown functionality. Several phage genes are regularly expressed, and the large prophage CGP3 (∼190 kbp) has recently been shown to be induced under certain stress conditions. Here, we present the construction of MB001, a prophage-free variant of C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 with a 6% reduced genome. This strain does not show any unfavorable properties during extensive phenotypic characterization under various standard and stress conditions. As expected, we observed improved growth and fitness of MB001 under SOS-response-inducing conditions that trigger CGP3 induction in the wild-type strain. Further studies revealed that MB001 has a significantly increased transformation efficiency and produced about 30% more of the heterologous model protein enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (eYFP), presumably as a consequence of an increased plasmid copy number. These effects were attributed to the loss of the restriction-modification system (cg1996-cg1998) located within CGP3. The deletion of the prophages without any negative effect results in a novel platform strain for metabolic engineering and represents a useful step toward the construction of a C. glutamicum chassis genome of strain ATCC 13032 for biotechnological applications and synthetic biology. 相似文献

Bacteriophage B2 of Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 8014, isolated in 1971, belonged to Bradley's group B. Electron microscopy revealed an isometric head (110 nm) and a long non-contractile and flexible tail (500 nm) containing about 75 regularly aligned lateral striations. Burst size was 12-14 phages per infectious centre. The latent period for phage development was 75 min and the rise period approximately 90 min. The phage particle contained 5 major proteins. The buoyant density of the phage in CsCl was measured as 1.575 g/cm3. B2 genome was a linear double-stranded DNA molecule of 37 +/- 1% guanosine-cytosine. Its size was 73 kilobase pairs (kbp). Restriction analysis of the genome showed that 4 restriction enzymes (Xba I, Sac I, Bgl II and Sma I) gave single site cuts in the DNA, while Ava I and Sal I formed 2 and 5 cuts, respectively. 相似文献

Corynebacterium group D2 (CGD2) are lipophilic antibiotic-multiresistant bacteria involved in some infections of immunocompromised patients. The fatty acid composition and structure of different strains was established by several mass spectrometric methods, particularly negative ion tandem mass spectrometry coupled with capillary gas chromatography. Non-hydroxylated fatty acid profiles of three strains of CGD2 (ATCC 43042, ATCC 43043, ATCC 43044) were almost identical and revealed the presence of several straight chain unsaturated fatty acids from the omega-9 series, with even carbon numbers ranging from 14 to 24. Branched saturated fatty acids were mainly anteiso-heptadecanoic acid and tuberculostearic acid. Surprisingly, a relatively large quantity of 10-methylene octadecanoic acid was found. The non-hydroxylated fatty acid profile of one rare beta-lactam susceptible strain (SC1) was different; 10-methylene octadecanoic acid was lacking whereas tuberculostearic acid was much more abundant. In contrast, the four CGD2 strains displayed highly similar mycolic acid patterns. The major mycolic acid species corresponded to C32, C30 and C28 bis-unsaturated with a double bond on each branch at the omega-9 position. The comparison of the mycolic acid composition and structure with those of other medically important corynebacteria strains, revealed a characteristic pattern for CGD2 strains, and CGD2 strains were easily distinguished from Corynebacterium jeikeium (CIP 82.51). 相似文献

We characterized two Lactobacillus plantarum virulent siphophages, ATCC 8014-B1 (B1) and ATCC 8014-B2 (B2), previously isolated from corn silage and anaerobic sewage sludge, respectively. Phage B2 infected two of the eight L. plantarum strains tested, while phage B1 infected three. Phage adsorption was highly variable depending on the strain used. Phage defense systems were found in at least two L. plantarum strains, LMG9211 and WCSF1. The linear double-stranded DNA genome of the pac-type phage B1 had 38,002 bp, a G+C content of 47.6%, and 60 open reading frames (ORFs). Surprisingly, the phage B1 genome has 97% identity with that of Pediococcus damnosus phage clP1 and 77% identity with that of L. plantarum phage JL-1; these phages were isolated from sewage and cucumber fermentation, respectively. The double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genome of the cos-type phage B2 had 80,618 bp, a G+C content of 36.9%, and 127 ORFs with similarities to those of Bacillus and Lactobacillus strains as well as phages. Some phage B2 genes were similar to ORFs from L. plantarum phage LP65 of the Myoviridae family. Additionally, 6 tRNAs were found in the phage B2 genome. Protein analysis revealed 13 (phage B1) and 9 (phage B2) structural proteins. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing such high identity between phage genomes infecting different genera of lactic acid bacteria. 相似文献

Aims: To isolate and characterize bacterial strains derived from Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus paracasei strains and resistant to phage MLC‐A. Methods and Results: Two of nine assayed strains rendered resistant mutants with recovery efficiencies of 83% (Lact. paracasei ATCC 27092) and 100% (Lact. casei ATCC 27139). DNA similarity coefficients (RAPD–PCR) confirmed that no significant genetic changes occurred while obtaining resistant mutants. Neither parent nor mutant strains spontaneously released phages. Phage‐resistant mutants were tested against phages PL‐1, J‐1, A2 and MLC‐A8. Lactobacillus casei ATCC 27092 mutants showed, overall, lower phage resistance than Lact. paracasei ATCC 27092 ones, but still higher than that of the parent strain. Lactobacillus paracasei ATCC 27092 mutants moderately adsorbed phage MLC‐A only in calcium presence, although their parent strain successfully did it with or without calcium. Adsorption rates for Lact. casei ATCC 27139 and its mutants were highly influenced by calcium. Again, phage adsorption was higher on the original strain. Conclusions: Several isolates derived from two Lact. casei and Lact. paracasei strains showed resistance to phage MLC‐A but also to other Lact. casei and Lact. paracasei phages. Significance and Impact of the Study: This study highlights isolation of spontaneous bacteriophage‐resistant mutants from Lact. casei and Lact. paracasei as a good choice for use in industrial rotation schemes. 相似文献
