Copper Hypersensitivity and Uptake in Pseudomonas syringae Containing Cloned Components of the Copper Resistance Operon.
Copper resistance in Pseudomonas syringae carrying the copABCD operon is associated with accumulation of copper in the periplasm and outer membrane, apparently as a function of the copper-binding activities of the copABC gene products. However, no specific function for copD has been determined. In this study, P. syringae cells containing copCD or copBCD cloned behind the lac promoter were hyper...
متن کاملA two-component regulatory system required for copper-inducible expression of the copper resistance operon of Pseudomonas syringae.
Specific induction of the copper resistance operon (cop) promoter from Pseudomonas syringae was measured by beta-galactosidase production from a cop promoter-lacZ fusion. Induction of the cop promoter in P. syringae pv. syringae required trans-acting factors from copper resistance plasmid pPT23D, from which cop was originally cloned. Tn5 mutagenesis of pPT23D was used to localize two complement...
متن کاملEcological and genetic analysis of copper and streptomycin resistance in Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae.
Strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae resistant to copper, streptomycin, or both compounds were recovered from symptomless and diseased tissue of four woody hosts in three nurseries in Oklahoma. In strains resistant to copper and streptomycin (Cur Smr), resistance to both compounds was cotransferred with a single plasmid which was either 68, 190, or 220 kilobase pairs (kb). All Cus Smr s...
متن کاملCopC protein from Pseudomonas syringae: intermolecular transfer of copper from both the copper(I) and copper(II) sites.
The CopC protein from Pseudomonas syringae pathovar tomato is expressed as one of four proteins encoded by the operon CopABCD that is responsible for copper resistance. It is a small soluble molecule (10.5 kDa) with a beta-barrel structure and features two distinct copper binding sites, which are highly specific for Cu(I) (K(D) > or = 10(-)(13)) and Cu(II) (K(D) approximately 10(-)(15)). These ...
متن کاملGenetic Basis of Copper Resistance in New Zealand Strains of Pseudomonas Syringae
Strains of Pseudomonas syringae able to grow on minimal medium containing 500 mg/litre of copper sulphate were selected from a collection of streptomycin-resistant strains isolated in New Zealand. From one of these copper-resistant strains a 1.3 kb fragment of DNA was isolated by PCR using primers designed on genes reported to be associated with copper resistance. Sequencing of this fragment re...
