    Notes: Summary Based on a dose-survival curve, a radiation dose of 3.99 C/kg was used to induce antibiotic-resistant mutants inBacteroides fragilis. Escherichia coli B/r membrane fragments were employed as a reducing agent. Antibiotic-resistant mutants ofB. fragilis were utilized to study the mechanism by which these organisms become resistant to selected chemotherapeutic agents. Decreased accumulation of tetracycline by resistant mutants ofB. fragilis suggests that the resistance to this antibiotic is associated with the outer membrane permeability. There is a marked difference in the inhibitory action of rifampicin on RNA polymerase activity in rifampicin-sensitive and-resistant strains ofB. fragilis. This enzyme is, therefore, the likely target for inhibition of bacterial growth in this anaerobe by rifampicin.

    Notes: Summary Beijerinckia indica var.penicillanicum mutant UREMS-5, producing 168% more penicillin V acylase, was obtained by successive treatment with UV, γ-irradiation and ethylmethane sulfonate. Penicillin V acylase production by the mutant strain was resistant to catabolite repression by glucose. Incorporation of glucose, sodium glutamate and vegetable oils in the medium enhanced enzyme production. The maximum specific production of penicillin V acylase was 244 IU/g dry weight of cells. Effect of solvents on hydrolysis of penicillin V by soluble penicillin V acylase and whole cells was studied. Methylene chloride, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride significantly stimulated the rate of penicillin V hydrolysis by whole cells.

    Notes: Summary In this study, a continuous-flow UV-induced mutation (CUM) device and the CUM device coupled to a selector (CUMS) reactor were fabricated and tested for their ability to enhance the probability of obtaining populations capable of chlorinated organic biodegradation. A mixed culture of bacteria were used as the starting strain for both the CUM and CUMS processes. Populations were obtained from the CUM and CUMS systems capable of 4-chlorobenzoic acid, 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid and chlorendic acid biodegradation. Non-UV irradiated population served as controls for the experiments and did not demonstrate chlorinated organic biodegradation over the test duration.

    Notes: Summary Phencyclidine (PCP), when given to mice, induces general hyperactivity and rapid circling, similar to that caused by morphine. These effects are partially antagonized by naloxone.

    Notes: Summary Estradiol dipropionate induces an increase (3-fold) in the uterine glycogen content and a decrease (4-fold) in the vaginal glycogen content of Parkes (P) mice. Progesterone antagonizes this estradiol dipropionate-induced response in both the uterine and vaginal tissue. The degree of this antagonism is more pronounced in the uterus than in the vagina.

    Notes: Summary During the first 40 days of life the rate of incorporation of32P into total phospholipids and into phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, sphingomyelin, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylinositol of mouse kidney was by some 25–35% higher than in older animals. Results suggest a different involvement of cellular membranes during of normal and compensatory renal growth.

    Notes: Summary Wild-type strains ofZymomonas mobilis have a limited substrate range of glucose, fructose and sucrose. In order to expand this substrate range, transconjugants ofZ. mobilis containing Lac+ plasmids have been constructed. Although β-galactosidase is expressed in such strains, they lack the ability to grow on lactose. We now report the development ofZ. mobilis strains capable of growth on lactose. This was achieved in two stages. First, a broad host range plasmid was constructed (pRUT102) which contained the lactose operon under the control of aZ. mobilis promoter plus genes for galactose utilization.Z. mobilis CP4.45 containing pRUT102 was then subjected to mutagenesis combined with continued selection pressure for growth on lactose. One strain,Z. mobilis SB6, produced a turbid culture that yielded 0.25% ethanol from 5% lactose (plus 2% yeast extract) in 15 days.

    Notes: Abstract H2 uptake activity was well distributed in Rhizobium sp. strains isolated from nodules of mung-bean (Vigna radiata L.). Two effective strains, RMP1 und RMP2, exhibiting significantly higher H2 uptake activity were subjected to mutagenesis with nitrosoguanidine. The respective mutation frequencies were 0.18 and 0.19%. Three Hup- mutants each of RMP1 und RMP2 were compared with the wild-type parent strains under pot culture experiments to evaluate the significance of the H2 uptake system in biological N2 fixation. Nodulation capabilities, plant growth characteristics, and the chlorophyll content of the leaves were significantly reduced in the plants treated with Hup- mutants. Nitrogenase activity in Hup- nodules was reduced by 8–41%. Similarly, N accumulation was also reduced singificantly.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Most ribosomal protein (rp-)genes in yeast are preceded by conserved sequence motifs that act as upstream transcription-activating sites (RPG box). These sequence elements have previously been shown to represent specific binding sites for a protein factor, TUF. Comparison of the various nucleotide elements identified so far indicates a remarkably high degree of variation in the respective sequences. On the other hand, a methylation interference study performed with one RPG box revealed close contact points with the TUF protein along the entire sequence. To investigate the sequence requirements of the RPG box, we inserted synthetic oligonucleotides that differed from the general consensus sequence ACACCCATACATTT at single positions into a deletion mutant of the L25 promoter that lacked its natural RPG elements. Transcription activity was estimated by Northern analyses of the cellular level of L25-galK hybrid transcripts. The results show that in the 3′ part of this sequence element single substitutions are allowed at all positions, in the 5′ part, however, the nucleotide requirements appear to be more stringent. In particular, the invariant C at position 5 of the consensus sequence is absolutely necessary for its enhancer function.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary In the further analysis of a cross in which the mis-sense allele, am 3, of the Neurospora crassa am (glutamate dehydrogenase) gene was present in one parent together with two ectopic wild-type gene copies, one ascus was identified in which the two ectopic copies had been inactivated by the RIP process whereas the am 3 allele continued to produce its characteristic enzyme variety in active, but heat-sensitive, form. The am 3 allele had also acquired a new HindIII restriction site. It had no detectable methylation. The mutations responsible respectively for the new restriction site and the modified enzyme properties were separated from each other, and from the original am 3 mutation, by selecting for intragenic recombination on either side of the am 3 site. In this way two new effectively wild-type alleles were generated, one characterised by its heat-sensitive and kinetically modified enzyme product and the other by a new HindIII site. These results demonstrate that the RIP phenomenon can be a source of new functional alleles.
