Naturally transformable Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1 belongs to the newly described species Acinetobacter baylyi.
Genotypic and phenotypic analyses were carried out to clarify the taxonomic position of the naturally transformable Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1. Transfer tDNA-PCR fingerprinting, 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, and selective restriction fragment amplification (amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis) indicate that strain ADP1 and a second transformable strain, designated 93A2, are me...
متن کاملImproved Triacylglycerol Production in Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 by Metabolic Engineering
BACKGROUND Triacylglycerols are used in various purposes including food applications, cosmetics, oleochemicals and biofuels. Currently the main sources for triacylglycerol are vegetable oils, and microbial triacylglycerol has been suggested as an alternative for these. Due to the low production rates and yields of microbial processes, the role of metabolic engineering has become more significan...
متن کاملEngineering the genotype of Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1 to enhance biosynthesis of cyanophycin.
To study the importance of arginine provision and phosphate limitation for synthesis and accumulation of cyanophycin (CGP) in Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1, genes encoding the putative arginine regulatory protein (argR) and the arginine succinyltransferase (astA) were inactivated, and the effects of these mutations on CGP synthesis were analyzed. The inactivation of these genes resulted in a 3....
متن کاملFunctions of the mismatch repair gene mutS from Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1.
The genus Acinetobacter encompasses a heterogeneous group of bacteria that are ubiquitous in the natural environment due in part to their ability to adapt genetically to novel challenges. Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1 (also known as strain BD413) is naturally transformable and takes up DNA from any source. Donor DNA can be integrated into the chromosome by recombination provided it possesses su...
متن کاملGenome instability mediates the loss of key traits by Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 during laboratory evolution.
Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 has the potential to be a versatile bacterial host for synthetic biology because it is naturally transformable. To examine the genetic reliability of this desirable trait and to understand the potential stability of other engineered capabilities, we propagated ADP1 for 1,000 generations of growth in rich nutrient broth and analyzed the genetic changes that evolved by w...
