Efficient DNA transformation of Bradyrhizobium japonicum by electroporation.
Intact cells of Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110 were transformed with a 30-kilobase plasmid to efficiencies of 10(6) to 10(7) transformants per microgram by high-voltage electroporation. The technique was reliable and simple, with single colonies arising from transformed cells within 5 days of antibiotic selection. Plasmid DNA from B. japonicum transformed the Bradyrhizobium (Arachis) sp. wit...
متن کاملTransformation of Escherichia coli with large DNA molecules by electroporation.
We have examined bacterial electroporation with a specific interest in the transformation of large DNA, i.e. molecules > 100 kb. We have used DNA from bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) ranging from 7 to 240 kb, as well as BAC ligation mixes containing a range o different sized molecules. The efficiency of electroporation with large DNA is strongly dependent on the strain of Escherichia co...
متن کاملThiosulfate-dependent chemolithoautotrophic growth of Bradyrhizobium japonicum.
Thiosulfate-oxidizing sox gene homologues were found at four loci (I, II, III, and IV) on the genome of Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA110, a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium in soil. In fact, B. japonicum USDA110 can oxidize thiosulfate and grow under a chemolithotrophic condition. The deletion mutation of the soxY(1) gene at the sox locus I, homologous to the sulfur-oxidizing (Sox) system in...
متن کاملChemotaxis of Bradyrhizobium japonicum to soybean exudates.
The chemotactic response of Bradyrhizobium japonicum toward soybean seed and root exudates was examined. Assays using various isoflavones and fractionated exudate indicated that isoflavones are not the principal attractants in exudates. Likewise, induction of nod genes with isoflavones or seed exudate before assay did not enhance chemotaxis. Screening of numerous compounds revealed that only di...
متن کاملTranscription profiling of soybean nodulation by Bradyrhizobium japonicum.
Legumes interact with nodulating bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia for plant use. This nitrogen fixation takes place within root nodules that form after infection of root hairs by compatible rhizobia. Using cDNA microarrays, we monitored gene expression in soybean (Glycine max) inoculated with the nodulating bacterium Bradyrhizobium japonicum 4, 8, and 16 days after inocul...
