Sporulation-converting bacteriophages for Bacillus pumilus.
Thirty-three sporulation-converting bacteriophages for Bacillus pumilus NRS576 were assigned to two apparently unrelated groups on the basis of morphology and antiserum neutralization. Bacterial sporulation mutants responded similarly (conversion or nonconversion) to representatives of both phage groups. Evidence is presented indicating that PMB1 and related phages specify a restriction and/or ...
متن کاملCharacterization of temperate bacteriophages of Bacillus thuringiensis.
Eight phages lysogenic for Bacillus thuringiensis var. galleriae which elicit the lytic response in B. thuringiensis var. subtoxicus were isolated by induction of the host strains. We have divided these phages into three groups: group I, phages GT-t to GT-5; group II, GT-6 and GT-7; group IlI, GT-8. The following properties of the phages were examined: morphology, host range, serum neutralizati...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Characterization of a Lipase from an Indigenous Bacillus pumilus
Cloning and sequencing of a lipase gene from an indigenous Bacillus pumilus, strain F3, revealed an open-reading frame of 648 nucleotides predicted to encode a protein of 215 residues. Sequence analysis showed that F3 lipase contained a signal peptide composed of 34 amino acids with an H domain of 18 residues. A tat-like motif was found in the signal peptide similar to some other Bacillus pumil...
متن کاملToxin production by Bacillus pumilus.
Two strains of Bacillus pumilus (M11 and M38) and one strain each of Bacillus cereus (M27), Bacillus subtilis (M67), and Enterobacter agglomerans (M14) were identified from the air of Lancashire cotton mills. These strains were tested for cytopathic effects in Vero cells; B pumilus and B cereus strains were also examined for haemolytic activity, lecithinase production, and proteolytic action on...
متن کاملCharacterization of Five Novel Brevibacillus Bacteriophages and Genomic Comparison of Brevibacillus Phages
Brevibacillus laterosporus is a spore-forming bacterium that causes a secondary infection in beehives following European Foulbrood disease. To better understand the contributions of Brevibacillus bacteriophages to the evolution of their hosts, five novel phages (Jenst, Osiris, Powder, SecTim467, and Sundance) were isolated and characterized. When compared with the five Brevibacillus phages curr...
