Thermostability of antigens associated with serotype of Rhizobium japonicum.
The antigens associated with serologically distinct strains of Rhizobium japonicum were found to differ in heat sensitivity. Cell preparations from 4 out of 12 strains retained agglutinability, and 1 out of 5 retained antigenicity after they were heated to 120 C. Antigenicity was reduced in most strains after heating to 100 C for 30 min, but agglutinability was not affected by this treatment. T...
متن کاملAntigenic analysis of Rhizobium japonicum by immunodiffusion.
Immunodiffusion reactions were studied with seven strains of Rhizobium japonicum and three strains of the cowpea miscellany by using antisera against eight of the strains. Most strains yielded only weak precipitin bands when untreated cell suspensions were used as antigens in the diffusions. Ultrasonic disruption or heat treatment of the cells led to stronger bands, and immersion in boiling wat...
متن کاملL-Arabinose metabolism in Rhizobium japonicum.
l-Arabinose was metabolized through an oxidative pathway by extracts of a strain of Rhizobium japonicum. The findings showed that l-arabinose is converted into 2-keto-3-deoxy-l-arabonate, which is cleaved into glycoaldehyde and pyruvate.
متن کاملNitrate reductase from anaerobically grown Rhizobium japonicum.
The activity of nitrate reductase in Rhizobium japonicum is controlled by oxygen tension, and not by nitrate. The enzyme from R. japonicum grown anaerobically in the presence of nitrate resembles that from bacteroids in having a molecular weight of about 69000 daltons; the enzyme from aerobically grown cells ahs a molecular weight of about 170000 daltons. Both types of enzyme have similar Km va...
متن کاملOn the DNA Content of the Bacteroids of Rhizobium japonicum
DNA Content, Nodules, Bacteroids, Rhizobium, Soybean The DNA content of bacteroids from large nodules of soybean plants infected with Rhizobium japonicum strain 61 -A -101 was found to be 1.20 x 10~14 g per cell. Bacteroids from smaller nodules had slightly less DNA as did the stationary phase, free-living cells; both giving a value of 0.92 x 10-14 g per cell. In comparing these data with those...
