Small regulatory RNAs from low-GC Gram-positive bacteria
Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) that act by base-pairing were first discovered in so-called accessory DNA elements--plasmids, phages, and transposons--where they control replication, maintenance, and transposition. Since 2001, a huge body of work has been performed to predict and identify sRNAs in a multitude of bacterial genomes. The majority of chromosome-encoded sRNAs have been investigated in...
متن کاملNew vector for efficient allelic replacement in naturally nontransformable, low-GC-content, gram-positive bacteria.
A shuttle vector designated pMAD was constructed for quickly generating gene inactivation mutants in naturally nontransformable gram-positive bacteria. This vector allows, on X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside) plates, a quick colorimetric blue-white discrimination of bacteria which have lost the plasmid, greatly facilitating clone identification during mutagenesis. The ...
متن کاملRegulation of biosynthesis and transport of aromatic amino acids in low-GC Gram-positive bacteria.
Computational comparative techniques were applied to analysis of the aromatic amino acid regulon in Gram-positive bacteria. A new candidate transcription regulation signal of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase and shikimate kinase genes was identified in Streptococcus and Lactococcus species. New T-boxes were found upstream of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis and transport gen...
متن کاملCodon-optimized fluorescent proteins designed for expression in low-GC gram-positive bacteria.
Fluorescent proteins have wide applications in biology. However, not all of these proteins are properly expressed in bacteria, especially if the codon usage and genomic GC content of the host organism are not ideal for high expression. In this study, we analyzed the DNA sequences of multiple fluorescent protein genes with respect to codons and GC content and compared them to a low-GC gram-posit...
متن کاملTemperate bacteriophages and lysogeny in lactic acid bacteria.
Lysogeny is widespread in the lactic acid bacteria. The majority of lysogens can be induced by UV irradiation or treatment with mitomycin C, but indicator strains which allow lytic growth of the induced phage are often not easy to identify. A few temperate phages have been shown to transduce chromosomal and/or plasmid markers. Information about the molecular biology of the temperate phages from...
