Isolation and characterization of a generalized transducing phage for Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains PAO1 and PA14.
A temperate, type IV pilus-dependent, double-stranded DNA bacteriophage named DMS3 was isolated from a clinical strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A clear-plaque variant of this bacteriophage was isolated. DMS3 is capable of mediating generalized transduction within and between P. aeruginosa strains PA14 and PAO1, thus providing a useful tool for the genetic analysis of P. aeruginosa.
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a generalized transducing phage for Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris.
We have isolated and characterized a lytic double-stranded DNA Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris bacteriophage (XTP1) capable of mediating generalized transduction. The phage transduces chromosomal markers at frequencies of 10(-5) to 10(-6) transductants per PFU. We demonstrated its genetic utility by the isolation and cotransduction of linked transposon insertions to a nonselectable locus,...
متن کاملPure Culture of Pseudomonas cepacia
A pure culture of Pseudomonas cepacia, designated AC1100, that can utilize 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) as its sole source of carbon and energy was isolated. An actively growing culture of AC1100 was able to degrade more than 97% of 2,4,5-T, present at 1 mg/ml, within 6 days as determined by chloride release, gas chromatographic, and spectrophotometric analyses. The ability of AC...
متن کاملGeneralized transduction by phage P22 in Salmonella typhimurium. I. Molecular origin of transducing DNA.
P22, a temperate phage which grows on Salmoneua typhimurium, is capable of carrying out general&d transduction in this host. The general&d transducing particles are the same size ss P22 phage particles but instead of phage DNA they contain bacterial DNA which was synthesized before phage infection. Further, DNA molecules isolated from the transducing particles have the same molecular weight as ...
متن کاملSpecialized Transducing Phages Derived from Salmonella Phage
Salmonella phage P22 has been used in the construction of three sorts of specialized transducing phage: P22 proAB, P22 proABlac and P22 argF. The bacterial genes carried are derived from E. coli K12. Since E. coli and Salmonella chromosomes recombine very poorly, E. coli genes cannot be transduced into Salmonella recipients by P22‘s generalized transduction mechanism. Therefore, stable inherita...
