Polygalacturonase is a virulence factor in Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 3.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 3 causes both crown gall and root decay of grapes. All biovar 3 strains, regardless of their tumorigenicity, produce in culture a single polygalacturonase with a pI around 4.5. A. tumefaciens biovar 3 strain CG49 was mutagenized with Tn5 by using pSUP2021 as a suicide vector. A mutant strain, CG50, lacking polygalacturonase activity was isolated. The mutation wa...
متن کاملAttachment, Chemotaxis, and Multiplication of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Biovar 1 and Biovar 3 on Grapevine and Pea.
Tumorigenic (CG49) and nontumorigenic (CG484) strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens bv. 3 attached to grape roots at a higher level than did a nonpectinolytic mutant of CG49 (CG50) or a tumorigenic strain of A. tumefaciens bv. 1 (CG628). Strains attached equally well to wounded and unwounded grape roots. Strains responded differently to pea plants in that biovar 3 strains consistently attached t...
متن کاملConditions for production of 3-ketomaltose from Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
Up to 39% yields of 3-ketomaltose were achieved in 18 to 22 hr when Agrobacterium tumefaciens NRRL B-36 was cultured at 25 to 28 C in a simple medium containing 4.0 to 8.0% maltose, 0.09% urea, 0.5% CaCO(3), 0.6% KH(2)PO(4), and 0.025% MgSO(4).7H(2)O. For maximum production of 3-ketomaltose the culture had to be maintained approximately at pH 7.0.
متن کاملDivalent Cation Inhibition of 3-Ketodisaccharide Synthesis by Agrobacterium tumefaciens
Zinc and copper ions at 1.0 mM effectively inhibited synthesis of 3-ketodisaccharides (3-KD) by washed cells of Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Cu2+ at 0.1 mM completely inactivated cell·free preparations of the synthetic enzyme, hexopyranoside: cytochrome c oxidoreduc· tase. This ion also inhibited uptake of disaccharides. Since Zn2+ blocked disaccharide uptake but had no effect on the synthetic en...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Biovar 1 Strain 186, Isolated from Walnut
Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 1 strain 186 was isolated from a walnut tree expressing crown gall symptoms. The draft genome sequence of this strain harbored genes for crown gall formation and will be useful for understanding its virulence on Paradox, the predominant hybrid rootstock used for the cultivation of English walnut in California.
