Insertion-sequence-dependent rearrangements of Pseudomonas cepacia plasmid pTGL1.
Pseudomonas cepacia 249 (ATCC 17616) harbors a 170-kilobase (kb) plasmid designated pTGL1. We identified three insertion sequences, IS405, IS408, and IS411, on this plasmid. Various prototrophic and auxotrophic derivatives in our collection contained variants of pTGL1 formed by accretion and deletion of other elements. Plasmid pTGL6, the variant in one prototroph, evolved from pTGL1 by the addi...
متن کاملMobilization, cloning, and sequence determination of a plasmid-encoded polygalacturonase from a phytopathogenic Burkholderia (Pseudomonas) cepacia.
Phytopathogenic strains of Burkholderia cepacia (synonym Pseudomonas cepacia) produce endopolygalacturonase, whereas strains of clinical and soil origin do not. Growth of a phytopathogenic strain (ATCC25416) at elevated temperatures resulted in nonpectolytic derivatives that were either cured of a resident plasmid or contained a plasmid of reduced mass. The resident 200-kb plasmid (pPEC320) in ...
متن کاملPlasmid-encoded degradation of p-nitrophenol by Pseudomonas cepacia.
A Pseudomonas cepacia strain RKJ 200 capable of utilising p-nitrophenol (PNP+) as the sole source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy was isolated by selective enrichment. The degradation of PNP by this strain proceeds through an oxidative route as indicated by the accumulation of nitrite molecules in the culture medium. Initial studies indicate that the degradation of PNP occurs via hydroquinone a...
متن کاملRelation between Insertion Sequences and Genome Rearrangements in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
During evolution of microorganisms genomes underwork have different changes in their lengths, gene orders, and gene contents. Investigating these structural rearrangements helps to understand how genomes have been modified over time. Some elements that play an important role in genome rearrangements are called insertion sequences (ISs), they are the simplest types of transposable elements (TEs)...
متن کاملPure Culture of Pseudomonas cepacia
A pure culture of Pseudomonas cepacia, designated AC1100, that can utilize 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) as its sole source of carbon and energy was isolated. An actively growing culture of AC1100 was able to degrade more than 97% of 2,4,5-T, present at 1 mg/ml, within 6 days as determined by chloride release, gas chromatographic, and spectrophotometric analyses. The ability of AC...
