The replicator of the nopaline-type Ti plasmid pTiC58 is a member of the repABC family and is influenced by the TraR-dependent quorum-sensing regulatory system.
The replicator (rep) of the nopaline-type Ti plasmid pTiC58 is located adjacent to the trb operon of this conjugal element. Previous genetic studies of this region (D. R. Gallie, M. Hagiya, and C. I. Kado, J. Bacteriol. 161:1034-1041, 1985) identified functions involved in partitioning, origin of replication and incompatibility, and copy number control. In this study, we determined the nucleoti...
متن کاملThe right hand copy of the nopaline Ti-plasmid 25 bp repeat is required for tumour formation.
At either end of the nopaline Ti-plasmid T-region resides a copy of a 25 bp repeated element. The normal T-DNA endpoint is 1 bp internal of the right copy, with the transcription initiation site of the nopaline synthase (nos) gene being approximately 300 bp away in the same direction. Here we describe results which demonstrate that deletion of any combination of sequences between the nos initia...
متن کاملTransfer of the octopine T-DNA segment to plant cells mediated by different types of Agrobacterium tumor- or root-inducing plasmids: generality of virulence systems.
Genetic complementation studies demonstrated that the transfer to plant cells of the octopine T-DNA, entirely present as the only part of the tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid on the plasmid pAL1050, was effected by the virulence systems from related plasmids, viz. the nopaline Ti plasmid pTiC58, the limited host range plasmid pTiAg57, and the root-inducing (Ri) plasmid pRi1855. Rhizobium symbiosis p...
متن کاملTwo-component systems required for virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a versatile opportunistic pathogen capable of infecting a broad range of hosts, in addition to thriving in a broad range of environmental conditions outside of hosts. With this versatility comes the need to tightly regulate its genome to optimise its gene expression and behaviour to the prevailing conditions. Two-component systems (TCSs) comprising sensor kinases and r...
متن کاملThe right end of the vir region of an octopine-type Ti plasmid contains four new members of the vir regulon that are not essential for pathogenesis.
We sequenced the virD-virE, virE-virF, and virF-T-DNA intergenic regions of an octopine Ti plasmid. Four newly described genes were induced by the vir gene inducer acetosyringone, two of which are conserved in the nopaline-type Ti plasmid pTiC58. One gene resembles a family of phosphatase genes. Each of these genes is dispensable for tumorigenesis.
