Morphological changes associated with novobiocin resistance in Bacillus licheniformis.
Spontaneously occurring novobiocin-resistant (Nov) mutants of Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945, resistant to low levels of novobiocin (15 mug/ml), were isolated with a frequency of 3 in 106 organisms. Such isolates grew well, but nearly all exhibited consistent plleiotropic alterations in colonial and cell morphologies. One mutant, nov-12, grew as chains of unseparated but clearly distinct daug...
متن کاملMorphological phenomena associated with penicillinase induction and secretion in Bacillus licheniformis.
Cells of uninduced Bacillus licheniformis (strain 749) in mid-logarithmic phase have no extensive intracytoplasmic membrane. After induction with cephalosporin C, characteristic organelles that contain tubules and vesicles with single-layered membranes and no visible internal substructure can be seen in thin sections in the periplasm. A magnoconstitutive penicillinase producer (749/C) contains ...
متن کاملA Peptidoglycan Fragment Triggers β-lactam Resistance in Bacillus licheniformis
To resist to β-lactam antibiotics Eubacteria either constitutively synthesize a β-lactamase or a low affinity penicillin-binding protein target, or induce its synthesis in response to the presence of antibiotic outside the cell. In Bacillus licheniformis and Staphylococcus aureus, a membrane-bound penicillin receptor (BlaR/MecR) detects the presence of β-lactam and launches a cytoplasmic signal...
متن کاملChanges in the Nucleotide Poll of Bacillus Licheniformis during Sporulation.
Leitzmann, Claus (University of Minnesota, Minneapolis), and Robert W. Bernlohr. Changes in the nucleotide pool of Bacillus licheniformis during sporulation. J. Bacteriol. 89:1506-1510. 1965.-An analysis of the amount of acid-soluble nucleotides in Bacillus licheniformis cells showed a 75% increase during presporulation over that in log-phase cells. Cultures in which presporulation was inhibite...
متن کاملRegulation of alanine dehydrogenase in Bacillus (licheniformis).
Cell extracts of Bacillus licheniformis were found to contain nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent l-alanine dehydrogenase (ADH) (l-alanine: NAD oxidoreductase, EC 1.4.1.1). High specific activities (3.5 to 6.0 IU/mg of protein) were found in extracts of cells throughout growth cycles only when l-alanine served as the primary source of carbon or carbon and nitrogen. Specific activi...
