Characteristics of extracellular protein production by a plasmidless derivative of Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus.
A derivative of Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus cured of all five plasmids present in the wild-type organism was developed, and the characteristics of extracellular protein production by this plasmidless strain were compared to those of the wild type. Although staphylolytic endopeptidase (lysostaphin) and beta-lactamase are known to be plasmid encoded, analysis of this cured stra...
متن کاملCharacteristics of extracellular protein production by Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus during aerobic and anaerobic growth.
Aerobic cultures of Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus characteristically achieved about 17 times higher bacterial densities and produced about 7 times higher concentrations of exoprotein than did anaerobic cultures. However, total exoprotein secreted per unit of bacterial dry weight typically was 2.3 times greater for anaerobic cultures. As determined by SDS-PAGE, anaerobic culture...
متن کاملThe lysostaphin endopeptidase resistance gene (epr) specifies modification of peptidoglycan cross bridges in Staphylococcus simulans and Staphylococcus aureus.
Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus produces an extracellular glycylglycine endopeptidase (lysostaphin) that lyses other staphylococci by hydrolyzing the cross bridges in their cell wall peptidoglycans. The genes for endopeptidase (end) and endopeptidase resistance (epr) reside on plasmid pACK1. An 8.4-kb fragment containing end was cloned into shuttle vector pL150 and was then intro...
متن کاملA simple and generally applicable procedure for releasing DNA from bacterial cells.
Treatment of Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus cells with acetone before digestion with lysozyme made the cells susceptible to lysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate. This technique was found to be useful for releasing DNA from a wide variety of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms.
متن کاملnew semigroup compactifications via the enveloping semigroups of associated flows
this thesis deals with the construction of some function algebras whose corresponding semigroup compactification are universal with respect to some properies of their enveloping semigroups. the special properties are of beigan a left zero, a left simple, a group, an inflation of the right zero, and an inflation of the rectangular band.
