Changes in Microsporum gypseum mycelial wall and spore coat glycoproteins during sporulation and spore germination.
Ethylenediamine-soluble glycoproteins were extracted from isolated Microsporum gypseum hyphal walls during sporulation and from spore coats before and after germination. This study was carried out to identify a sporulation-specific cell wall protein that possibly served as a substrate for the alkaline protease which initiated the macroconidial germination of this fungus. Analyses revealed that ...
متن کاملBiochemical changes during fungal sporulation and spore germination. I. Phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride inhibition of macroconidial germination in Microsporum gypseum.
Macroconidia of Microsporum gypseum release free amino acids into the medium during germination. A single alkaline protease is also found in the germination supernatant fraction. The purified protease is capable of hydrolyzing isolated spore coats in vitro. Phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) is an effective inhibitor of the protease. Incorporation of PMSF at 10(-4)m into the germination sys...
متن کاملSporulation in bacillus subtilis. Antigenic changes during spore formation.
1. Antisera, prepared against extracts of cells and spores of Bacillus subtilis, were used in immunoelectrophoretic studies of the changes occurring in cell extracts during the course of spore formation. 2. At least 15 antigens could be detected in vegetative-cell extracts by the antiserum prepared against cell extracts and at least seven could be demonstrated in spore extracts by the homologou...
متن کاملCell-wall lytic enzymes at sporulation and spore germination in Bacillus species.
When washed sporulating cells of Bacillus cereus were incubated in buffer a t 37" in the presence of toluene, a partial autolysis occurred resulting in the freeing of mature and immature spores. The autolysate contained lytic enzymes which attacked vegetative cells and cell-wall preparations, releasing hexosaminecontaining peptides of characteristic constitution. The most active enzyme preparat...
متن کاملHeat-induced macroconidia germination in Microsporum gypseum.
A method for obtaining purified ungerminated macroconidia is described, and a technique for obtaining 85 to 90% germination of macroconidia under normal nutritional conditions is presented.
