    Notizen: Abstract The in vivo expression of cellular bacterial luciferase has been defined as the luciferase expression quotient, measured as the ratio of the bioluminescence intensity in vivo to the in vitro activity of luciferase in crude cell extracts. The expression is greater in the presence of inhibitors of the electron transport system such as cyanide and N-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline and also at lower oxygen tensions. The higher expression of the cellular luciferase under these conditions is postulated to be due to an increase in the intracellular levels of reduced coenzymes which enhance both the reduction of flavin and the reduction of fatty acid to aldehyde. Both FMNH2 and aldehyde are substrates in the light emitting reaction.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Abstract Factors leading to swarming of Vibrio alginolyticus cells on solid media were studied. Polar flagellated rods from liquid medium develop into small colonies on solid medium. Byproducts, accumulating in the colony area, induce at certain critical concentrations, the formation of peritrichous flagella and development of long heavily flagellated filaments which swarm away from the high by-product concentrations. Several types of nonswarming mutants were isolated, among them, mutants which lack the capacity to form swarming-inducing byproducts, but can be induced to swarm by byproducts of other mutants incapable of swarming. Different compounds could replace the natural metabolic byproducts; at very low concentration these compounds induce peritrichous flagella and swarming in some of the nonswarming mutants mentioned above. The natural metabolic byproducts accumulating in yeast-extract-peptone medium are suggested to be volatile acids belonging to the valine and isoleucine pathway. Wild-type V. alginolyticus cells cannot swarm on certain substrates but its mutants, able to swarm on many substrates in minimal media, are easily selected.

    Notizen: Abstract The development of peritrichous flagella and, consequently, swarming of Vibrio alginolyticus depend on a complex relationship between temperature, salt concentrations and pH. At temperatures above 28°C V. alginolyticus did not develop peritrichous flagella unless certain minimal concentrations of NaCl are present: the higher the temperature, the higher the NaCl concentrations required for peritrichous flagella synthesis. This requirement for NaCl at high temperatures is much more pronounced at pH 9 than at pH 6. High temperatures and low concentrations of NaCl also inhibited swarming of cells already armed with peritrichous flagella. Other cations, such as Li+, K+ and Mg2+, replaced NaCl only at temperatures below 28°C.

    Notizen: Twenty metallic compounds were assayed for their genotoxic mutagenic activity by the bioluminescence test restoration of the luminescence of dark mutant of the luminous bacterium Photobacterium fischeri). The activity of the metals was tested in a liquid medium as well as on a solid medium. K2Cr2O7, MnCl2, BeCl2, KH2AsO4, ZnCl2 and Na2WO4 showed strong activity in liquid medium while AgNO3, Cd(OOCCH3)2, CoCl2, CuCl2, HgCl2, Na2SeO3 and Pb(NO3)2 were more active in the solid medium test. BaCl2, Na2MoO4, NaAsO2, NiSO4, Na2SeO4, RbCl, and SnCl2 were not active in the bioluminescence test. The correlation between the genotoxic activity of the tested metallic compounds in the bioluminescence test and other bacterial tests for genotoxic agents as well as the correlation between these results and the carcinogenicity of these compounds is discussed.

    Notizen: Luminescence in the marine bacterium, Vibrio fischeri, is regulated by a small molecule, the autoinducer. The transcription of the V. fischeri lux genes also requires a regulatory protein, (luxR), cAMP and CRP. We show that, apart from these components, the transcription of the PR lux operon is also controlled by the activity of σ32 (htpR protein). In luminescent Escherichia coli (E. coli/pChv1), as well as in different marine luminous bacteria and their naturally occurring dark (K) variants, the luminescence system can be induced by starvation under microaerophilic conditions. Heat shock also induces luminescence in htpR+ but not in htpR- strains of E. coli/pChv1.An htpR- mutant of E. coli containing pChv1 is very dim and its luminescence is not induced by starvation or heat shock. The addition of a plasmid bearing the gene for htpR+ into such cells restores their response to starvation and heat shock. Cells of wild type E. coli/pChv1 that have been starved or heat shocked respond to lower concentrations of V. fischeri inducer than untreated cells. These cultures also produce more extracellular inducer than untreated cells. Starvation, heat shock and the presence of σ32 do not induce luminescence in luxl deleted E. coli/pChv1 cells.SOS-inducing agents advance the onset of luminescence in both htpR+ and htpR- strains but not in luxl deleted E. coli/pChvi cells.DNA sequencing of the luxR-luxl region reveals the presence of a promoter region of the kind typical for σ32 at the beginning of the luxl gene. In addition we find a LexA protein-DNA binding site in the non-consensus sequence for the -35 region of the PR operon. It is proposed that the regulatory protein-inducer complex displaces the LexA protein and allows the transcription of the right operon. SOS-inducing agents result in proteolysis of LexA protein and advance the onset of luminescence. σ32 enhances the transcription from the PR operon and thus initiates a positive control circuit. It seems that σ32 is the major controlling element in determining the onset of luminescence both in vivo and in vitro.

    Notizen: We have recently shown that the transcription of the PR lux operon for Vibrio fischeri luminescence is positively controlled by the htpR (σ32) protein. It was suggested that the LexA protein might negatively control the lux genes. This paper extends these findings. It was found that Escherichia coli cells that contain the entire lux operon (pChv1) in RecA or LexA mutants which are unable to remove the LexA protein are considerable dimmer than the wild-type strain. Mutants that do not make LexA or from a weakly bound LexA are very bright. The role of σ32 protein was studied on luxR-luxl genes that are fused to β-galactosidase. The addition of V. fischeri inducer brings about the formation of β-galactosidase activity in htpR+ but not in htpR- strains of E. coli/pMJ3. Similar to the effect of starvation on the induction of luminescence in marine bacteria and in E. coli/pChv1 cells, β-galactrosidase activity in such constructs is preferentially induced by low nutrient concentrations. A new model for the regulatory control of the V. fischeri luminescence system is discussed.
