Colonial heterogeneity of Thiobacillus versutus.
In acetate-limited chemostat cultures started with single-colony cultures of Thiobacillus versutus, a mutant appeared after approximately 85 volume changes. The inhomogeneity of the culture was detected by the development of two different types of colonies on agar plates. When a pure culture of the mutant was grown in a chemostat, parent colonies appeared after almost the same period of time. E...
متن کاملThe oligogalacturonate-specific porin KdgM of Erwinia chrysanthemi belongs to a new porin family.
The phytopathogenic Gram-negative bacteria Erwinia chrysanthemi secretes pectinases, which are able to degrade the pectic polymers of plant cell walls, and uses the degradation products as a carbon source for growth. We characterized a major outer membrane protein, KdgM, whose synthesis is strongly induced in the presence of pectic derivatives. The corresponding gene was characterized. Analysis...
متن کاملDrosophila Porin/VDAC Affects Mitochondrial Morphology
Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) has been suggested to be a mediator of mitochondrial-dependent cell death induced by Ca(2+) overload, oxidative stress and Bax-Bid activation. To confirm this hypothesis in vivo, we generated and characterized Drosophila VDAC (porin) mutants and found that Porin is not required for mitochondrial apoptosis, which is consistent with the previous mouse studie...
متن کاملStructure and function of the porin channel.
The outer membrane bilayer of gram-negative bacteria, which encapsulates completely the plasma membrane, seems to act as a protection system against noxious macromolecules like proteases and bile-salt micelles [1]. The external monolayer is composed of lipopolysaccharides with a variable carbohydrat.e composi~i?n. Long oligosaccharide chains protect the cells agamst recogmtlOn by the complement...
متن کاملIsolation of mitochondrial porin from Neurospora crassa.
Mitochondrial porin forms channels in the outer mitochondrial membrane which allows the passage of molecules with diameters up to -20 A [l-6]. We have described the purification of this protein [7] from purified outer membranes by differential extraction with detergents and anionic exchange chromatography. The purified porin displayed an app. Mr of 31 000 as judged by polyacrylamide gel electro...
