Effects of streptomycin deprivation on enzyme synthesis in streptomycin-dependent Escherichia coli.
During growth of streptomycin-dependent strains of Escherichia coli in the absence of streptomycin (deprived growth), both constitutive and inducible synthesis of beta-galactosidase were preferentially inhibited. A similar preferential inhibition of constitutive and derepressed synthesis of alkaline phosphatase was observed. Catabolite repression accounted for part, but not all, of the inhibiti...
متن کاملThe Effect of Sub-Inhibitory Streptomycin on Capsular Polysaccharide Production and Streptomycin Resistance in Escherichia coli
Previous studies have shown that pre-treatment of Escherichia coli B23 with subinhibitory concentrations of aminoglycosides leads to a subsequent increase in the level of capsular polysaccharide, as well as an increased resistance to streptomycin. Using capsular polysaccharide synthesis pathway mutants, we investigated the correlation between the level of capsular polysaccharide and streptomyci...
متن کاملRegulation of acetohydroxy acid synthase in streptomycin-dependent Escherichia coli.
Growth of streptomycin-dependent mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 was insensitive to valine when dihydrostreptomycin was present in a nonlimiting concentration in glucose-salts medium. Acetohydroxy acid synthase was derepressed under these conditions, owing to relaxation of catabolite repression. Valine sensitivity and catabolite repression were restored when streptomycin-dependent E. coli K-12...
متن کاملStreptomycin dependence in Escherichia coli: effects of antibiotic deprivation on ribosomes.
The inhibition of cell division and the ultimate loss of viability after removal of streptomycin from growing cultures of streptomycin-dependent bacteria are not the result of "unbalanced growth" or of the breakdown of ribosomes. The streptomycin-dependent strain of Escherichia coli K-12 studied continued to synthesize ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein during streptomycin starvation. There was...
متن کاملStreptomycin Uptake in Resistant Strains of Escherichia coli
Different streptomycin-resistant strains of Escherichia coli, including an R100 plasmid-carrying strain of E. coli W3110, the ribosomally resistant mutant SM10, and the spontaneous revertant from dependence to independence d1023, exhibited poor accumulation capacity for aminoglycoside antibiotics. This was due to a faiMlre of these mutants to induce the general polyamine transport system that i...
