Functional and structural dissection of the tape measure protein of lactococcal phage TP901-1
The tail tape measure protein (TMP) of tailed bacteriophages (also called phages) dictates the tail length and facilitates DNA transit to the cell cytoplasm during infection. Here, a thorough mutational analysis of the TMP from lactococcal phage TP901-1 (TMPTP901-1) was undertaken. We generated 56 mutants aimed at defining TMPTP901-1 domains that are essential for tail assembly and successful i...
متن کاملClear Plaque Mutants of Lactococcal Phage TP901-1
We report a method for obtaining turbid plaques of the lactococcal bacteriophage TP901-1 and its derivative TP901-BC1034. We have further used the method to isolate clear plaque mutants of this phage. Analysis of 8 such mutants that were unable to lysogenize the host included whole genome resequencing. Four of the mutants had different mutations in structural genes with no relation to the genet...
متن کاملCharacterization of the CI repressor protein encoded by the temperate lactococcal phage TP901-1.
The gene regulatory mechanism determining the developmental pathway of the temperate bacteriophage TP901-1 is regulated by two phage-encoded proteins, CI and MOR. Functional domains of the CI repressor were investigated by introducing linkers of 15 bp at various positions in cI and by limited proteolysis of purified CI protein. We show that insertions of five amino acids at positions in the N-t...
متن کاملCharacterization of the lactococcal temperate phage TP901-1 and its site-specific integration.
The temperate lactococcal phage TP901-1, induced by UV light from Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris 901-1, was characterized. The restriction map was found to be circular, and the packaging of TP901-1 DNA was concluded to occur by a headful mechanism. The pac region was localized on the 38.4-kb phage genome. TP901-1 belongs to the class of P335 phages (V. Braun, S. Hertwig, H. Neve, A. Geis, a...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
