Lytic enzyme produced by Myxococcus xanthus.
Hart, Beth A. (Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y.), and Stanley A. Zahler. Lytic enzyme produced by Myxococcus xanthus. J. Bacteriol. 92:1632-1637. 1966.-Strain FBa of Myxococcus xanthus releases into its culture medium an enzyme capable of lysing Micrococcus lysodeikticus cells and of releasing N-acetyl amino sugars from their cell walls. The lysin is stable at pH values near neutrality and at t...
متن کاملLipolytic enzymes in Myxococcus xanthus.
The genome of Myxococcus xanthus encodes lipolytic enzymes in three different families: patatin lipases, alpha/beta hydrolases, and GDSL lipases. One member of each family was characterized. The protein encoded by MXAN_3852 contains motifs characteristic of patatins. MXAN_5522 encodes a protein with the G-X-S-X-G motif characteristic of the lipase subfamily of alpha/beta hydrolases. MXAN_4569 e...
متن کاملAccordion waves in Myxococcus xanthus.
Myxococcus xanthus are Gram-negative bacteria that glide on solid surfaces, periodically reversing their direction of movement. When starved, M. xanthus cells organize their movements into waves of cell density that sweep over the colony surface. These waves are unique: Although they appear to interpenetrate, they actually reflect off one another when they collide, so that each wave crest oscil...
متن کاملMicrocyst germination in Myxococcus xanthus.
Germination of glycerol-prepared microcysts of Myxococcus xanthus was studied. The sequence of morphological events during germination resembled that of germinating fruiting body-microcysts. The turbidity drop of a culture of germinating microcysts could be described by McCormick's formula derived for germinating Bacillus spores. The rate of uptake of labeled glycine and acetate did not change ...
متن کاملChloramphenicol resistance in Myxococcus xanthus.
Derivatives of Myxococcus xanthus FB(t) resistant to chloramphenicol (25 mug/ml) arose spontaneously with a frequency of approximately 10(-7). One of these organisms (FB(t)Cam(1) (r)) was characterized. FB(t)Cam(1) (r) showed a unique type of phenotypic instability. After transfer from medium containing chloramphenicol to medium lacking the drug, resistance was lost after approximately one gene...
