Hfr Strains of Escherichia coli K-12
Since the first reports by Cavalli-Sforza (9) and Hayes (24) of strains of Escherichia coli K-12 which are conjugational donors of chromosomal markers at high frequency (Hfr strains), many other Hfr strains have been isolated and our understanding of the mechanisms involved in Hfr formation has increased considerably. All Hfr strains arise from the integration of a conjugative plasmid into the ...
متن کاملEndonuclease V (nfi) mutant of Escherichia coli K-12.
Endonuclease V (deoxyinosine 3' endonuclease), the product of the nfi gene, has a specificity that encompasses DNAs containing dIMP, abasic sites, base mismatches, uracil, and even untreated single-stranded DNA. To determine its importance in DNA repair pathways, nfi insertion mutants and overproducers (strains bearing nfi plasmids) were constructed. The mutants displayed a twofold increase in ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Pyruvate Uptake in Escherichia coli K-12
The monocarboxylate pyruvate is an important metabolite and can serve as sole carbon source for Escherichia coli. Although specific pyruvate transporters have been identified in two bacterial species, pyruvate transport is not well understood in E. coli. In the present study, pyruvate transport was investigated under different growth conditions. The transport of pyruvate shows specific activiti...
متن کاملOverproduction of exopolysaccharides by an Escherichia coli K-12 rpoS mutant in response to osmotic stress.
The yjbEFGH operon is implicated in the production of an exopolysaccharide of an unknown function and is induced by osmotic stress and negatively regulated by the general stress response sigma factor RpoS. Despite the obvious importance of RpoS, negative selection for rpoS has been reported to take place in starved cultures, suggesting an adaptive occurrence allowing the overexpression of RpoD-...
متن کاملAcid-adapted strains of Escherichia coli K-12 obtained by experimental evolution.
Enteric bacteria encounter a wide range of pHs throughout the human intestinal tract. We conducted experimental evolution of Escherichia coli K-12 to isolate clones with increased fitness during growth under acidic conditions (pH 4.5 to 4.8). Twenty-four independent populations of E. coli K-12 W3110 were evolved in LBK medium (10 g/liter tryptone, 5 g/liter yeast extract, 7.45 g/liter KCl) buff...
