F'Cm Plasmid of Escherichia coli
A strain of Pasteurella pestis, harboring the F'Cm plasmid from Escherichia coli, was able to donate its chromosome to auxotrophic recipient strains of P. pestis. The frequency of gene transfer in P. pestis was approximately 10-6 per donor cell, 100 times less efficient than gene transfer in Pasteurella pseudotuberculosis, but efficient enough to determine entry times for the markers histidine,...
متن کاملIn vitro effects of a high-molecular-weight heat-labile enterotoxin from enteroaggregative Escherichia coli.
The pathogenic mechanisms of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAggEC) infection are not fully elucidated. In this work we show that an ammonium sulfate precipitate of culture supernatant of EAggEC strain 049766 increased the potential difference (PD) and the short-circuit current (Isc) in rat jejunal preparations mounted in Ussing chambers. The precipitate contained two major proteins of 108...
متن کاملHigh-molecular-weight forms of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases and tRNA modification enzymes in Escherichia coli.
The presence of high-molecular-weight complexes of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases in Escherichia coli has been reported (C. L. Harris, J. Bacteriol. 169:2718-2723, 1987). In the current study, Bio-Gel A-5M gel chromatography of 105,000 x g supernatant preparations from E. coli Q13 indicated high molecular weights for both tRNA methylase (300,000) and tRNA sulfurtransferase (450,000). These tRNA mod...
متن کاملLambda Red recombinase-mediated integration of the high molecular weight DNA into the Escherichia coli chromosome
BACKGROUND Escherichia coli K-12 is a frequently used host for a number of synthetic biology and biotechnology applications and chassis for the development of the minimal cell factories. Novel approaches for integrating high molecular weight DNA into the E. coli chromosome would therefore greatly facilitate engineering efforts in this bacterium. RESULTS We developed a reliable and flexible la...
متن کاملNatural plasmid transformation in Escherichia coli.
Although Escherichia coli does not have a natural transformation process, strains of E. coli can incorporate extracellular plasmids into cytoplasm 'naturally' at low frequencies. A standard method was developed in which stationary phase cells were concentrated, mixed with plasmids, and then plated on agar plates with nutrients which allowed cells to grow. Transformed cells could then be selecte...
