R-factor-mediated resistance to tetracycline in Proteus mirabilis.
The expression of R-factor-mediated resistance to tetracycline has been compared in Proteus mirabilis and Escherichia coli. Resistance to a range of concentrations of tetracycline was significantly lower in P. mirabilis than in E. coli in both induced and repressed states. Indirect evidence showed that conditions which result in a marked increase in the level of resistance of P. mirabilis harbo...
متن کاملTransduction of R factors in Proteus mirabilis and P. rettgeri.
Phage 34 transduces some R factors to Proteus mirabilis strain 13. These transductants can transmit the R factor by conjugation. Transduction frequencies vary from I x I ~-~/plaque-forming unit (p.f.u.) adsorbed (higher than .chromosomal marker transduction) to 5 x Io-8/p.f.u. adsorbed. Transduced drug resistance markers of other R factors were detected only in the presence of resident$factors ...
متن کاملTransduction of R factors by a Proteus mirabilis bacteriophage.
A transducing phage, designated phim, was isolated from a lysogenic strain of Proteus mirabilis and was characterized with respect to its physical and genetic properties. The phage contains double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) with an S(20,w) degrees of 29 which corresponds to a molecular weight of 24 x 10(6) daltons. The base composition of phim DNA was estimated to be 40% guanine plus ...
متن کاملPositive and negative control of R-factor replication in Proteus mirabilis.
Replication of the 50 and 58 moles per cent guanine plus cytosine (%GC) components of R factor 222 in Proteus mirabilis during growth in the presence and absence of chloramphenicol and after shifting exponential- and stationary-phase cells to conditions which inhibit host protein or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis was examined. Chloramphenicol reduced the growth rate but increased the amo...
متن کاملLipoprotein from Proteus mirabilis.
The biosynthesis of a Proteus mirabilis outer membrane protein of molecular weight of approximately 7,000 was found to be relatively resistant to puromycin and rifampin, as is the case for the Escherichia coli liporotein. Furthermore, the existence of the lipoprotein in P. mirabilis was indicated by a comparison of the amino acid compositions of the purified free and bound forms of this protein...
