The broad host-range plasmid pBS222 is compatible with broad host-range plasmids of all known incompatibility groups and codes for tetracycline resistance. pBS222 is efficiently mobilized by Inc P-1 plasmid RP4 and is also capable of conjugal transfer with low efficiency to different gramnegative microorganisms. The size of the plasmid (17.2 Kb) has been determined and its physical map has been constructed. The plasmid harbours the unique sites for restriction endonucleases BglII, HindIII, HpaI, KpnI, SmaI and XbaI cleawage. The plasmid derivatives pBS352-pBS355 have been obtained that carry kan- and cam-determinants in addition to tet-gene. Plasmid pBS355 has been used to clone EcoRI-fragments of phage lambda DNA. The plasmid pBS222 regions essential for replication and maintenance have been localized by DNA hybridization analysis of its mini-derivatives pBS356 and 357. pBS222 is a convenient model for investigations of the plasmid replication and maintenance mechanisms in different bacterial hosts as well as for the construction of broad host-range vectors. 相似文献

A new broad host-range plasmid capable of conjugative transfer has been isolated and characterized. The plasmid has the high frequency of conjugation transfer, is capable of conjugative transfer mobilization of nonconjugative plasmids, carries no known phenotypic markers. The plasmid demonstrates the specific interaction with the plasmids of P incompatibility group. The comparatively small size of the plasmid permits one to use it efficiently for comparative study of organization of the broad host range plasmids. 相似文献

Tn5-induced tra mutations were localized on the physical map of a broad host range plasmid pBS1001. Mutations were united into three clusters covering 25% of plasmid DNA. They were distributed in 7 groups by complementation analysis. It was shown that coexistence of tra mutants of pBS1001 and RP4 within the same cell did not restore conjugation properties of both plasmids. High frequency mobilization of some known vectors by pBS1001 was demonstrated. 相似文献

The analysis of the deletion derivative of pBS359 obtained as a result of sodium bisulphite mutagenesis and of recombinant derivatives pBS361-pBS363 permitted to map genes of the broad-host-range pBS222 plasmid which participate in replication, maintenance and mobilization. These genes are localized within the coordinates 0.2 to 2.5 kb in the region including a unique HindIII restriction site on the pBS222 physical map. Possible participation of the in vitro synthesized polypeptides in providing functions of cosmopolitanism and mobilization is being considered. Putative molecular-genetic structure of pBS222 and the presence of active recombination points are discussed, as well as the merits of the employed method for obtaining derivatives. The derivatives obtained and recombinant plasmids belong to the smallest plasmids which may be inherited in various gram-negative bacteria. 相似文献

The nonconjugative 4.4 kb plasmid pBS195 has been found in Lactobacillus sp. 195 strain resistant to kanamycin and streptomycin. The plasmid pBS195 determining the resistance to kanamycin has a broad host range. It is inherited by the Gram-positive microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis) as well as by Escherichia coli cells, has the cleavage sites for the restriction endonucleases BamHI, EcoRI, HindIII, PstI, KpnI. The restriction map of the plasmid for these enzymes is constructed. The broad host range, efficiently expressed marker, the presence of the unique restriction sites, small size make the plasmid pBS195 promising for the genetic engineering research. 相似文献

The hybrid plasmid pOV13 proposed as a potential vector for DNA cloning in a broad bacterial host range has been constructed on the basis of the broad host range plasmid RSF1010 and a shortened derivative of RP4, the plasmid pVZ115 serving a marker DNA fragment. The plasmid pOV13 contains the genes for streptomycin, kanamycin and tetracycline resistance and single cleavage sites for restriction endonucleases BamHI, BgIII, SalI, SmaI, PvuII, XhoI, as well as double cleavage sites for restriction endonucleases PstI and HindIII permitting one to clone DNA with insertional inactivation of genes. The physicogenetical map of the birepliconed plasmid pOV13 is presented. 相似文献

A new broad host range plasmid pM3 (IncP-9) was found in a facultative methylotrophic bacteria Pseudomonas putida and described. The pM3 plasmid is characterized by thermo-instability in Enterobacteriaceae family of bacteria at 36 degrees C or higher temperatures. It is also unable to be inherited as an autonomous element in the obligate methylotrophic bacteria Methylobacillus M75. The peculiarities of plasmid inheritance make possible to use it as a tool for genetic research, for instance, to construct the donor strains in Methylobacillus M75 able to mobilize the chromosomal genes for conjugational transfer in isogenic systems of crosses. 相似文献

Three transcribed regions of the plasmid that are dispensable for life functions of the plasmid have been identified by the insertions technique. The deleted plasmid derivatives have been isolated suitable for using as the broad host-range vectors. 相似文献

Rep-mob loci of naphthalene degradative plasmid pBS286 (IncP-9) have been cloned on the Escherichia coli vectors pUC19 and pUBR322. These loci confer to recombinant plasmids pBS952 and pBS953 the ability for effective mobilization by RP4 (IncP-1) and F plasmid, as well as constant maintenance in various gram-negative bacteria. Localization of cloned sequences in the restriction fragments of conservative part of the pBS286 genome was established. The data obtained correlate with the analysis of plasmids pBS950 and pBS951 which are spontaneous mini-derivatives of pBS286 and pBS292 (delta NPL1::Tn1/Tra+ Nah-) plasmids formed during transformation of E. coli HB101 cells. Plasmids pBS952 and pBS953 retain the incompatibility properties of parental IncP-9 replicon. These recombinant derivatives can be used for construction of bhr vectors with required properties and compatible with bhr vectors constructed on the basis of plasmids from the IncP-1 and IncP-4 groups. 相似文献

Hydroxylamine-induced mutants of the plasmid pPD6 (8.4 kb) were isolated which are resistant to high doses of tetracycline. One of the plasmids studied--pPD21 is a multicopy mutant, another one, pPD12 is a dimeric form of the pPD6 plasmid. The pPD12 plasmid is very unstable, its derivative, pPD13 spontaneous mutant acquiring stability but not the ability to resolve DNA multimeric forms into monomeric forms. Multicopy bireplicon pPD619 plasmid was constructed by joining in vitro pPD6 and pUC19 plasmids. Removing the replicon pUC19 from the bireplicon plasmid gives a new low-copy plasmid pPD620. All of the plasmids constructed were mobilized by the conjugative pRK2013 plasmid into the strains of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The pPD6 plasmid and its derivatives can be used as cloning vectors. 相似文献

Activation of pattern recognition receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) by pathogens leads to activation and maturation of dendritic cells (DC), which orchestrate the development of the adaptive immune response. To create an overview of the effects of a broad range of pathogenic bacteria, their capacity to activate TLRs and to affect DC maturation, cytokine production and T cell polarizing capacity were determined. Different bacterial species differed in their potency to affect these parameters. In general, on the DC level differences were found in the maturation-inducing capacity of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Remarkably, these differences did not result in differential polarization of the T cell response. With respect to TLRs, TLR4 activation by pathogens correlated with their ability to induce DC maturation, while for TLR2 and TLR5 such a correlation was absent. Taken together, this study provides insight into qualitative differences and general effects of pathogen-derived molecules on dendritic cells. 相似文献

Phage X was isolated from sewage as plating on Escherichia coli or Salmonella typhimurium strains harbouring the incompatibility group X plasmid R6K. It also plated on a strain of Serratia marcescens carrying this plasmid. It failed to form plaques on Proteus mirabilis, P. morganii or Providencia alcalifaciens harbouring R6K, but did multiply on them. No phage increase occurred with homologous R- strains. Phage X also plated or registered an increase in titre on E. coli or S. typhimurium strains carrying various plasmids of incompatibility groups M, N, P-1, U or W as well as the unassigned plasmid R775. It adsorbed to pili determined by a group P-10 plasmid in a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain but did not multiply on this organism. The phage was filamentous and curly, resistant to ribonuclease and diethyl ether and sensitive to chloroform. It adsorbed to the tips of pili. 相似文献

According to blotting hybridization and heteroduplex analysis, plasmids R751, R906 and RP4 of Inc Pi group have continuous regions of homology. These homologous regions were mapped on the R751 and RP4-derived pRP401 deletion mutant DNAs. The plasmid pRP401 (m.w. 21.9 kg) retains the broad host range property and has two regions of intensive homology with other Inc P-1 plasmid DNAs. These regions are localized at 8.2-12.0 kb and 13.9-21.9 kb of the physical map of pRP401 plasmid. Homologous regions of pRP401 DNA include at least the replication genes (oriV, trfA, trfB) as well as genes kilB, korA, korB and probably kilC. The data strongly point out that the broad host range plasmids have the same principle of structural and functional organization. 相似文献

Plasmid pBS221 was physically mapped for restriction endonucleases EcoRI, BamHI, BglII, HindIII. The regions essential for the plasmid existence and participating in replication (oriV trfA*) and mobilization (mob) were cloned. The tet determinant and oriV trfA* regions were localized on the physical map of the plasmid. A DNA sequence homologous to genes of Tn501 mer operon was detected in this plasmid. The studies on homology of plasmids RP4 (IncP alpha), R751 (IncP beta) and pBS221 plasmid suggest that the latter belongs to the IncP beta subgroup. 相似文献

Polyglutamylation is a post-translational modification that generates lateral acidic side chains on proteins by sequential addition of glutamate amino acids. This modification was first discovered on tubulins, and it is important for several microtubule functions. Besides tubulins, only the nucleosome assembly proteins NAP1 and NAP2 have been shown to be polyglutamylated. Here, using a proteomic approach, we identify a large number of putative substrates for polyglutamylation in HeLa cells. By analyzing a selection of these putative substrates, we show that several of them can serve as in vitro substrates for two of the recently discovered polyglutamylases, TTLL4 and TTLL5. We further show that TTLL4 is the main polyglutamylase enzyme present in HeLa cells and that new substrates of polyglutamylation are indeed modified by TTLL4 in a cellular context. No clear consensus polyglutamylation site could be defined from the primary sequence of the here-identified new substrates of polyglutamylation. However, we demonstrate that glutamate-rich stretches are important for a protein to become polyglutamylated. Most of the newly identified substrates of polyglutamylation are nucleocytoplasmic shuttling proteins, including many chromatin-binding proteins. Our work reveals that polyglutamylation is a much more widespread post-translational modification than initially thought and thus that it might be a regulator of many cellular processes. 相似文献

Key message
Genetic analysis of the yield and physical quality of wheat revealed complex genetic control, including strong effects of photoperiod-sensitivity loci.Abstract
Environmental conditions such as moisture deficit and high temperatures during the growing period affect the grain yield and grain characteristics of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The aim of this study was to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for grain yield and grain quality traits using a Drysdale/Gladius bread wheat mapping population grown under a range of environmental conditions in Australia and Mexico. In general, yield and grain quality were reduced in environments exposed to drought and/or heat stress. Despite large effects of known photoperiod-sensitivity loci (Ppd-B1 and Ppd-D1) on crop development, grain yield and grain quality traits, it was possible to detect QTL elsewhere in the genome. Some of these QTL were detected consistently across environments. A locus on chromosome 6A (TaGW2) that is known to be associated with grain development was associated with grain width, thickness and roundness. The grain hardness (Ha) locus on chromosome 5D was associated with particle size index and flour extraction and a region on chromosome 3B was associated with grain width, thickness, thousand grain weight and yield. The genetic control of grain length appeared to be largely independent of the genetic control of the other grain dimensions. As expected, effects on grain yield were detected at loci that also affected yield components. Some QTL displayed QTL-by-environment interactions, with some having effects only in environments subject to water limitation and/or heat stress. 相似文献17.

Tn916, which encodes resistance to tetracycline, is a 16.4-kilobase conjugative transposon originally identified on the chromosome of Streptococcus faecalis DS16. The transposon has been cloned in Escherichia coli on plasmid vectors, where it expresses tetracycline resistance; it can be reintroduced into S. faecalis via protoplast transformation. We have used a lambda::Tn5 bacteriophage delivery system to introduce Tn5 into numerous sites within Tn916. The Tn5 insertions had various effects on the behavior of Tn916. Some insertions eliminated conjugative transposition but not intracellular transposition, and others eliminated an excision step believed to be essential for both types of transposition. A few inserts had no effect on transposon behavior. Functions were mapped to specific regions on the transposon. 相似文献

Plasmid RK2 is unusual in its ability to replicate stably in a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria. The replication origin (oriV) and a plasmid-encoded initiation protein (TrfA; expressed as 33 and 44 kDa forms) are essential for RK2 replication. To examine initiation events in bacteria unrelated to Escherichia coli, the genes encoding the replicative helicase, DnaB, of Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated and used to construct protein expression vectors. The purified proteins were tested for activity along with E.coli DnaB at RK2 oriV. Each helicase could be recruited and activated at the RK2 origin in the presence of the host-specific DnaA protein and the TrfA protein. Escherichia coli or P.putida DnaB was active with either TrfA-33 or TrfA-44, while P.aeruginosa DnaB required TrfA-44 for activation. Moreover, unlike the E.coli DnaB helicase, both Pseudomonas helicases could be delivered and activated at oriV in the absence of an ATPase accessory protein. Thus, a DnaC-like accessory ATPase is not universally required for loading the essential replicative helicase at a replication origin. 相似文献
