Iron transport in Escherichia coli: uptake and modification of ferrichrome.
During the transport of iron as ferrichrome complex into cells of Escherichia coli K-12, the ligand was modified and excreted into the medium. The rate of the formation of the modified product corresponded with the rate of iron transport. The modified product showed a decreased affinity for ferric iron and did not serve as an effective iron ionophore. After all of the ferrichrome had been conve...
متن کاملConstruction of New Genetic Tools as Alternatives for Protein Overexpression in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background: Pseudomonas protein expression in E. coli is known to be a setback due to signifi cant genetic variation and absence of several genetic elements in E. coli for regulation and activation of Pseudomonas proteins. Modifi cations in promoter/repressor system and shuttle plasmid maintenance have made the expression of stable and active Pseudomonas protein possible in bot...
متن کاملTwo genetic loci for resistance to kasugamycin in Escherichia coli.
There are two loci for resistance to the antibiotic kasugamycin (Ksg) in Escherichia coli. Mutations at ksgA resulted in 30S ribosomal subunit resistance to Ksg. The map location of ksgA was near minute 0.5: ksgA was 95% cotransducible with pdxA, and the apparent gene order was thr... ksgA... pdxA. Studies in stable ksgA/ksgA(+) merodiploids showed that sensitivity was dominant over resistance....
متن کاملGenetic Differences in Methionine Uptake by Surviving
Two inbred strains of rats were compared as to their ability to incorporate methionine into surviving liver slices. The strains differed significantly in body weight and their reciprocal cross offspring showed marked heterosis. The J strain was built up from four females and two males of a single litter of the Wayne University Fisher line No. 344, with a pedigree of forty-five generations of si...
متن کاملTransport of vitamin B12 in Escherichia coli: genetic studies.
The chromosomal location of two genetic loci involved in the transport of cyanocobalamin (B(12)) in Escherichia coli K-12 was determined. One gene, btuA, is believed to code for the transport protein in the cytoplasmic membrane, because a mutant with an alteration in this gene has lost the ability to accumulate B(12) within the cell although normal levels of the surface receptors for B(12) are ...
