Heterogeneity of uidA gene in environmental Escherichia coli populations.

Previous studies have shown that Escherichia coli can be isolated from non-polluted rivers and from bromeliad axilae in pristine areas of tropical rain forests. Finding E. coli in pristine environments is unusual because this bacterium is thought to only survive in the gut of warm-blooded animals and thus its presence should indicate recent fecal contamination. The aims of this study were 1) to...

Cloning of Clostridium perfringens iota toxin gene in Escherichia coli

Iota toxin is produced by Clostridium perfringens type E. This toxin causes antibiotic-associated enterotoxemia in lambs and calves. Iota toxin is a binary toxin that has two components including Ia (the enzyme component) and Ib (the binding component). Ib binds to the surface receptor of target cells and translocate Ia into the cytosol of cells. The aim of this study was to clone toxigenic epi...

Variation in Siderophore Biosynthetic Gene Distribution and Production across Environmental and Faecal Populations of Escherichia coli

Iron is essential for Escherichia coli growth and survival in the host and the external environment, but its availability is generally low due to the poor solubility of its ferric form in aqueous environments and the presence of iron-withholding proteins in the host. Most E. coli can increase access to iron by excreting siderophores such as enterobactin, which have a very strong affinity for Fe...

HETEROGENEITY OF MACROPHAGE POPULATIONS: ANTIBODIES DETECTING VARIOUS POPULATIONS OF MACROPHAGES

Two groups of antibodies against mouse resident alveolar and peritoneal macrophages have been raised individually in rabbits by immunization with whole cell suspensions of lavaged alveolar and peritoneal macrophages. The whole antisera reacted positively with neutrophils and lymphocytes. However, upon extensive absorptions with these cells the activity became restricted to macrophages. The...

Negative dominant mutations of the uidR gene in Escherichia coli: genetic proof for a cooperative regulation of uidA expression.

The uidA gene is the first gene involved in the hexuronide-hexuronate pathway in Escherichia coli K-12 and is under the dual control of the uidR and uxuR encoded repressors. Point mutations affecting the uidR regulatory gene were sought to investigate the regulation of uidA. When the uidR mutant allele was on a multicopy plasmid and the wild-type allele was on the chromosome, some of the mutant...
