Molybdate reduction by Escherichia coli K-12 and its chl mutants.
During anaerobic growth, Escherichia coli can reduce phosphomolybdate. The reduction can also be carried out by washed cells suspended in buffer at pH 5.7. Phosphate, molybdate, glucose, cells, and anaerobic conditions are required. Reduction is inhibited by 200 microM chromate, 290 microM nitrite, 10 mM tungstate, or 20 mM cysteine. Wild-type (chl+) cells are inhibited by addition of 200 micro...
متن کاملProperties of Escherichia coli mutants lacking membrane-derived oligosaccharides.
Membrane-derived oligosaccharides (MDO) consist of branched substituted beta-glucan chains and are present in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli and other gram-negative bacteria. A procedure for the isolation of mutants defective in MDO synthesis is described. Their phenotype was compared with a mdoA mutant previously identified, and they are mapped in the mdoA region. Mutants lacking MD...
متن کاملEscherichia coli tol-pal mutants form outer membrane vesicles.
Mutations in the tol-pal genes induce pleiotropic effects such as release of periplasmic proteins into the extracellular medium and hypersensitivity to drugs and detergents. Other outer membrane defective strains such as tolC, lpp, and rfa mutations are also altered in their outer membrane permeability. In this study, electron microscopy and Western blot analyses were used to show that strains ...
متن کاملMucoid mutants of Escherichia coli.
The WV strain of Escherichia coli has been used extensively in analyzing various biosynthetic pathways (Davis, 1952a) and also in studying drug resistance (Davis, 1952b). This strain is nonmucoid as ordinarily cultured on solid medium at 35 C. However, among mutants selected for various properties, i. e., auxotrophy, meiotrophy4 and drug resistance, a few were observed to be mucoid. An investig...
متن کاملExpression of tolC and organic solvent tolerance of Escherichia coli ciprofloxacin resistant mutants
AcrAB-TolC is a major efflux pump in Escherichia coli. It was reported that tolC is overexpressed and involves in improving the organic solvent tolerance level in Escherichia coli marR mutants that are resistant to several antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin. Low and intermediate levels resistance did not improve organic solvent tolerance. Thus, in this descriptive-experimental study it was deci...
