Chemotaxis of Bradyrhizobium japonicum to soybean exudates.
The chemotactic response of Bradyrhizobium japonicum toward soybean seed and root exudates was examined. Assays using various isoflavones and fractionated exudate indicated that isoflavones are not the principal attractants in exudates. Likewise, induction of nod genes with isoflavones or seed exudate before assay did not enhance chemotaxis. Screening of numerous compounds revealed that only di...
متن کاملAmino sugar sensitivity in Escherichia coli mutants unable to grow on N-acetylglucosamine.
Studies were conducted on two mutants of Escherichia coli that lack either glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase or N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylase and which accumulate glucosamine-6-phosphate or N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate, respectively, when grown in the presence of N-acetylglucosamine. The addition of 10(-4) to 10(-5)mN-acetylglucosamine to these mutant strains caused a rapid and...
متن کاملBradyrhizobium japonicum mutants defective in cyclic beta-glucan synthesis show enhanced sensitivity to plant defense responses.
Susceptibility of the nitrogen-fixing soybean symbiont Bradyrhizobium japonicum to inducible plant defense metabolites such as phytoalexin and H2O2, was investigated. On the wild-type strain USDA 110 the soybean phytoalexin, glyceollin, showed bacteriostatic activity. Viable bacteria isolated from intact nodules were adapted to glyceollin. H2O2 in physiological concentrations did not affect wil...
متن کاملKinetic and Structural Characterization of Tunnel-Perturbing Mutants in Bradyrhizobium japonicum Proline Utilization A
Proline utilization A from Bradyrhizobium japonicum (BjPutA) is a bifunctional flavoenzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of proline to glutamate using fused proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDH) domains. Recent crystal structures and kinetic data suggest an intramolecular channel connects the two active sites, promoting substrate channeling of the i...
متن کاملThiosulfate-dependent chemolithoautotrophic growth of Bradyrhizobium japonicum.
Thiosulfate-oxidizing sox gene homologues were found at four loci (I, II, III, and IV) on the genome of Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA110, a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium in soil. In fact, B. japonicum USDA110 can oxidize thiosulfate and grow under a chemolithotrophic condition. The deletion mutation of the soxY(1) gene at the sox locus I, homologous to the sulfur-oxidizing (Sox) system in...
