Selective enrichment of Pseudomonas spp. defective in catabolism after exposure to halogenated substrates.
Significant selective enrichments of mutants defective in catabolic pathways can be achieved by exposure of pseudomonad cells to halogenated analogs of growth substrates. Between 3 and 95% of viable clones rescued from such enrichments have been defective in specific catabolic pathways. This has been demonstrated for eight different catabolic pathways for aromatic compounds in pseudomonads, in ...
متن کاملPolynucleotide phosphorylase-deficient mutants of Pseudomonas putida.
In bacteria, polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is one of the main exonucleolytic activities involved in RNA turnover and is widely conserved. In spite of this, PNPase does not seem to be essential for growth if the organisms are not subjected to special conditions, such as low temperature. We identified the PNPase-encoding gene (pnp) of Pseudomonas putida and constructed deletion mutants th...
متن کاملDefective phage and chromosome mobilization in Pseudomonas putida.
The transfer of transducing phage DNA in association with the mandelate genetic region of Pseudomonas putida strain PRS1 (termed pfdm) has been achieved by growing together mandelate-positive PpG2 cells harboring pfdm as an extrachromosomal element and mandelate-deleted PpG1 strains. This transfer is analogous to sexual conjugation in the enterobacteria. The transfer of pfdm elements is always ...
متن کاملBioremediation of p-Nitrophenol by Pseudomonas putida 1274 strain
BACKGROUND p-Nitrophenol (PNP) occurs as contaminants of industrial effluents and it is the most important environmental pollutant and causes significant health and environmental risks, because it is toxic to many living organisms. Nevertheless, the information regarding PNP degradation pathways and their enzymes remain limited. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of the Pseudomonas Putida 127...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of mutants defective in the cyanide-insensitive respiratory pathway of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The branched respiratory chain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa contains at least two terminal oxidases which are active under normal physiological conditions. One of these, cytochrome co, is a cytochrome c oxidase which is completely inhibited by concentrations of the respiratory inhibitor potassium cyanide as low as 100 microM. The second oxidase, the cyanide-insensitive oxidase, is resistant to cya...
