Efficient transformation of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica.
We used a modified version of the method of Hanahan (D. Hanahan, J. Mol. Biol. 166:557-580, 1983) to transform Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica with the plasmids pBR322, pBR325, and pAT153. The transformation frequency ranged from 1 X 10(2) to 4 X 10(4) colonies per micrograms of plasmid DNA. The nature of these transformants was confirmed by plasmid ana...
متن کاملGenomic diversity of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and its correlation with virulence.
We used genetic and biochemical methods to examine the genomic diversity of the enterobacterial plant pathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora. The results obtained with each method showed that E. carotovora subsp. carotovora strains isolated from one ecological niche, potato plants, are surprisingly diverse compared to related pathogens. A comparison of 23 partial mdh sequences revealed a...
متن کاملPolygalacturonase of Erwinia carotovora.
The polygalacturonase, clearly differentiated from polygalacturonic acid trans-eliminase, produced in the culture fluid of Erwinia carotovora was purified 56-fold by means of acetone precipitation, acetate butfer extraction, and two successive treatments by chromatography on carboxymethyl cellulose. The purified enzyme is specific for nonmethoxylated polygalacturonic acid. It shows an optimum p...
متن کاملIdentification and cloning of an Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora bacteriocin regulator gene by insertional mutagenesis.
Avirulent Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora CGE234-M403 produces two types of bacteriocin. For the purpose of cloning the bacteriocin genes of strain CGE234M403, a spontaneous rifampin-resistant mutant of this strain, M-rif-11-2, was isolated. By Tn5 insertional mutagenesis using M-rif-11-2, a mutant, TM01A01, which produces the high-molecular-weight bacteriocin but not the low-molecular-wei...
متن کاملRegulation of the expression of prtW::gusA fusions in Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora.
Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, a Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacterium, secretes an extracellular metalloprotease, PrtW. Previous results demonstrated that protease activity is necessary for the normal progression of disease symptoms caused by this bacterium. The present study revealed that the prtW gene constitutes an independent transcriptional unit. It is demonstrated that introduct...
