We have analyzed the sequence-specific interaction between the Escherichia coli tryptophan (Trp) repressor and its operator using challenge phage vectors. These phages, derivatives of Salmonella phage P22 that have substitutions of synthetic, symmetric trp operators for the P22 rant operator, provide a genetic assay for DNA binding in vivo. Phages carrying operators that retain the determinants...
متن کاملA new Salmonella typhimurium DNA host specificity.
The genetic properties of a new (hspS) host specificity of Salmonella typhimurium were investigated using bacteriophage L. Phage L is a better substrate for s-specific restriction than phage P22. Mutants deficient in s-restriction only were found at the same frequency as mutants deficient in both restriction and modification. Crosses between S. typhimurium Hfr and S. typhimurium For between Esc...
متن کاملA geminivirus induces expression of a host DNA synthesis protein in terminally differentiated plant cells.
Geminiviruses are plant DNA viruses that replicate through DNA intermediates in plant nuclei. The viral components required for replication are known, but no host factors have yet been identified. We used immunolocalization to show that the replication proteins of the geminivirus tomato golden mosaic virus (TGMV) are located in nuclei of terminally differentiated cells that have left the cell c...
متن کاملGeminivirus DNA Replication
Diseases caused by geminiviruses have long been recognized as a limitation to the cultivation of several important crops, including maize, cassava, bean, squash, cucurbits, and tomato, in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. More recently, geminivirus diseases, particularly those transmitted by whiteflies, have become an even greater threat to agriculture due to the appearance of a ne...
متن کاملHost Specificity of Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. in the Manas Biosphere Reserve, Indo-Burma Hotspot
The dodder plant Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. is an angiospermic leafless parasitic plant belonging to the family Cuscutaceae is abundantly found colonizing certain plant species in the premises of Manas Biosphere Reserve (MBR) and nearby area. Ten (10) angiospermic host plants in total of the above parasite were recognized. Based on the field inspection most of the numbers of patches were recorded in...
