Improved Production of Rhamnolipids by a Pseudomonas aeruginosa Mutant
A Pseudomonas aeruginosa mutant derived by random mutagenesis with N-methyl-N¢-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, producing high levels of the rhamnolipid biosurfactants was selected on Siegmund-Wagner (SW) plates. The mutant designated P. aeruginosa PTCC1637 produces rhamnolipids at concentrations 10 time more than parent strain. NMR analysis and surface tension measurement showed that the biosurfactan...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of a New Peroxisome Deficient CHO Mutant Cell Belonging to Complementation Group 12
We searched for novel Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell mutants defective in peroxisome biogenesis by an improved method using peroxisome targeting sequence (PTS) of Pex3p (amino acid residues 1–40)-fused enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). From mutagenized TKaEG3(1–40) cells, the wild-type CHO-K1 stably expressing rat Pex2p and of rat Pex3p(1–40)-EGFP, numerous cell colonies resistant to...
متن کاملIsolation of a cytochrome-deficient mutant strain of Sporomusa sphaeroides not capable of oxidizing methyl groups.
The homoacetogenic anaerobic bacterium Sporomusa sphaeroides was mutagenized with UV light. Taking advantage of the ampicillin enrichment technique and a newly developed test for the detection of heme in bacterial colonies, the cytochrome-deficient mutant strain S. sphaeroides BK824 was isolated. In contrast to the wild type, this mutant strain failed to grow on betaine, betaine plus methanol, ...
متن کاملA mutant of Neurospora crassa deficient in cytochrome c heme lyase activity cannot import cytochrome c into mitochondria.
The nuclear cyt-2-1 mutant of Neurospora crassa is characterized by a gross deficiency of cytochrome c (Bertrand, H., and Collins, R. A. (1978) Mol. Gen. Genet. 166, 1-13). The mutant produces mRNA that can be translated into apocytochrome c in vitro. Apocytochrome c is also synthesized in vivo in cyt-2-1, but it is rapidly degraded and thus does not accumulate in the cytosol. Mitochondria from...
متن کاملUptake of methylamine and methanol by Pseudomonas sp. strain AM1.
The uptake of methylamine and of methanol by the facultative methylotroph Pseudomonas sp. strain AM1 was investigated. It was found that this organism possesses two uptake systems for methylamine. One of these operates when methylamine is the sole source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy. It has a Km of 1.33 X 10(-4) M and a Vmax of 67 nmol/min per mg of cells (dry weight). The other system, foun...
