Polynucleotide sequence relationships among members of Enterobacteriaceae.
Polynucleotide relationships were examined among many representatives of the Enterobacteriaceae by means of agar, membrane filter, and hydroxyapatite procedures. The amount of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that reassociated was dependent, especially in interspecific reactions, on the annealing temperature. In only three cases: Escherichia coli-Shigella flexneri, Salmonella typhimurium-S. typhi, a...
متن کاملWhy do bacterial plasmids carry some genes and not others?
Previous explanations of why bacterial genes for certain "optional" traits tend to occur on plasmids rather than chromosomes are based on an outdated misunderstanding of natural selection. They also fail to explain why certain characters that are ubiquitous in some bacterial species tend to occur on plasmids. This paper shows that all major classes of traits usually associated with plasmids rat...
متن کاملRelationships among some univariate distributions
The purpose of this paper is to graphically illustrate the parametric relationships between pairs of 35 univariate distribution families. The families are organized into a seven-by-five matrix and the relationships are illustrated by connecting related families with arrows. A simplified matrix, showing only 25 families, is designed for student use. These relationships provide rapid access to in...
متن کاملPredicting Sequence-Activity Relationships among Antimicrobial Peptides
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are membraneactive peptides that serve as promising therapeutic alternatives to antibiotics. Due to their diverse sequences, AMPs are active against a variety of microbes including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and cancer cells. Here, we present the use of machine learning techniques to classify antifungal AMPs from antibacterial AMPs using sequence-derived physico-che...
متن کاملPhenotypic plasticity in bacterial plasmids.
Plasmid pB15 was previously shown to evolve increased horizontal (infectious) transfer at the expense of reduced vertical (intergenerational) transfer and vice versa, a key trade-off assumed in theories of parasite virulence. Whereas the models predict that susceptible host abundance should determine which mode of transfer is selectively favored, host density failed to mediate the trade-off in ...
