Method to integrate multiple plasmids into the mycobacterial chromosome.
In order to create a system in which two independent plasmids can be integrated into a mycobacterial chromosome, a mycobacterial plasmid was constructed containing the phage attachment site attP from the mycobacteriophage L5 genome and additionally containing the bacterial attachment site, attB. This plasmid will integrate into the mycobacterial chromosome via recombination of the plasmid-borne...
متن کاملMycobacterial Pan-Genome Analysis Suggests Important Role of Plasmids in the Radiation of Type VII Secretion Systems
In mycobacteria, various type VII secretion systems corresponding to different ESX (ESAT-6 secretory) types, are contributing to pathogenicity, iron acquisition, and/or conjugation. In addition to the known chromosomal ESX loci, the existence of plasmid-encoded ESX systems was recently reported. To investigate the potential role of ESX-encoding plasmids on mycobacterial evolution, we analyzed a...
متن کاملCatabolic Plasmids
Formost of this century agriculture and industry haveused a wide range of synthetic chemicals which appear to have no counterparts in nature. Many of these compounds, by their very nature and complexity, are resistant to degradation when released into soil, water and air. Unfortunately, the repeated use and release of such synthetics has become an everyday occurrence, resulting in widespread en...
متن کاملMycobacterial infection.
Tuberculosis and leprosy are two well known mankind diseases that are caused by members of the genus Mycobacterium. When originally named in 1896, this genus contained the leprosy bacillus (Mycobacterium leprae) observed by Armour Hansen in 1874 and the tubercle bacillus (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) observed and cultured by Robert Koch in 1882. As time went by, other bacilli similar to those of...
