Packaging specific segments of the Salmonella chromosome with locked-in Mud-P22 prophages.
Hybrid genetic elements, Mud-P and Mud-Q (collectively, Mud-P22s), have been constructed that carry two-thirds of the temperate Salmonella phage P22 genome sandwiched between the ends of transposon Mu. Insertions of these elements in the Salmonella chromosome generate locked-in P22 prophages that cannot excise. Upon induction (as a consequence of the inactivation of P22 c2 repressor), a locked-...
متن کاملTransport in bacteriophage P22-infected Salmonella typhimurium.
There was rapid efflux of L-leucine, L-phenylalanine, and alpha-methyl-D-glucoside after infection of Salmonella typhimurium with the clear plaque mutant C1 of phage P22. The efflux was similar to that observed with cyanide or arsenate treatment except that there was partial recovery in the case of phage infection and almost complete recovery under the condition of lysogeny. There was no efflux...
متن کاملMapping of rfa Genes in Salmonella typhimurium by ES18 and P22 Transduction and by Conjugation.
Loci termed rfa, determining biosynthesis of somatic lipopolysaccharide core, have been mapped in Salmonella typhimurium LT2. The smooth-specific phage P22 co-transduced two leaky rfa alleles with cysE and with pyrE; one of the leaky alleles is perhaps rfaG, and the other is an unidentified gene concerned with synthesis of the heptose-containing part of the core. The lipopolysaccharide-indiffer...
متن کاملHost transcription in bacteriophage P22-infected Salmonella typhimurium.
The kinetics of host RNA synthesis, as measured by pulse-label kinetics and RNA-DNA hybridization, is inhibited 10-fold shortly after infection with bacteriophage P22. This early inhibition lasts through the first 6 min of infection and affects not only RNA synthesis but several other energy-requiring cellular functions. In lysogenic infections, the rate of bacterial transcription rapidly recov...
متن کاملTransduction by bacteriophage P22 in nonsmooth mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.
The general transducing phage P22 attacks only smooth (S) Salmonella with O antigen 12, determined by the oligosaccharide repeating unit constituting the distal part of the somatic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) side chain; non-S mutants, whose LPS contain few or no O repeating units, appear to be resistant. Auxotrophic non-S mutants of Salmonella typhimurium LT2 were tested as transductional recipie...
