Cold shock response in Bacillus subtilis.
Following a rapid decrease in temperature, the physiology of Bacillus subtilis cells changes profoundly. Cold shock adaptation has been monitored at the level of membrane composition, adjustment in DNA topology, and change in cytosolic protein synthesis/composition. Some major players in these processes (cold-stress induced proteins and cold acclimatization proteins, CIPs and CAPs) have been id...
متن کاملRepair of radiation damage to deoxyribonucleic acid in germinating spores of Bacillus subtilis.
The repair of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in germinating spores was studied in comparison with that in vegetative cells. Radiation-induced single-strand breaks in the DNA of spores and of vegetative cells of Bacillus subtilis were rejoined during postirradiation incubation. The molecular weight of single-stranded DNA was restored to the level of nonirradiated cells. The rate of the rejoining of...
متن کاملLevels of Germination Proteins in Bacillus subtilis Dormant, Superdormant, and Germinating Spores
Bacterial endospores exhibit extreme resistance to most conditions that rapidly kill other life forms, remaining viable in this dormant state for centuries or longer. While the majority of Bacillus subtilis dormant spores germinate rapidly in response to nutrient germinants, a small subpopulation termed superdormant spores are resistant to germination, potentially evading antibiotic and/or deco...
متن کاملQuasi-elastic light scattering studies on dormant and germinating Bacillus subtilis spores.
Spores of Bacillus subtilis in suspension, both dormant and germinating, have been examined by light-scattering methods, both integrated intensity and correlation versions. When intensity of scatter at constant volume was plotted against angle, curves possessing a maximum at about 20 degrees were regularly obtained but without any noticeable features at higher angles. This indicated polydispers...
متن کاملCold shock stress-induced proteins in Bacillus subtilis.
Bacteria respond to a decrease in temperature with the induction of proteins that are classified as cold-induced proteins (CIPs). Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, we analyzed the cold shock response in Bacillus subtilis. After a shift from 37 to 15 degrees C the synthesis of a majority of proteins was repressed; in contrast, 37 proteins were synthesized at rates higher than preshift r...
