Metabolism of naphthalene by pseudomonads: salicylaldehyde as the first possible inducer in the metabolic pathway.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pseudomonas ATCC 17483 produced enzymes for naphthalene metabolism when growing in a medium containing succinate and naphthalene. Mutants for naphthalene metabolism produced by treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine were able to produce these enzymes only when the metabolic pathway was intact as far as salicylaldehyde, which was therefore identified as the first possible inducer.

Role and regulation of the ortho and meta pathways of catechol metabolism in pseudomonads metabolizing naphthalene and salicylate.
The enzymes of naphthalene metabolism are induced in Pseudomonas putida ATCC 17484, PpG7, NCIB 9816, and PG and in Pseudomonas sp. ATCC 17483 during growth on naphthalene or salicylate; 2-aminobenzoate is a gratuitous inducer of these enzymes. The meta-pathway enzymes of catechol metabolism are induced in ATCC 17483 and PPG7 during growth on naphthalene or salicylate or during growth in the pre...
متن کاملCombination of degradation pathways for naphthalene utilization in Rhodococcus sp. strain TFB
Rhodococcus sp. strain TFB is a metabolic versatile bacterium able to grow on naphthalene as the only carbon and energy source. Applying proteomic, genetic and biochemical approaches, we propose in this paper that, at least, three coordinated but independently regulated set of genes are combined to degrade naphthalene in TFB. First, proteins involved in tetralin degradation are also induced by ...
متن کاملNaphthalene plasmids in pseudomonads.
A rapid method beginning with the direct lysis of bacteria in alkaline sodium dodecyl sulfate was used to detect naphthalene plasmids in pseudomonads. The strains NCIB 9816, PG, ATCC 17483, and ATCC 17484, which can grow on naphthalene as the sole source of carbon and energy, were examined. All except ATCC 17483 contained more than one plasmid. ATCC 17483 did not contain any plasmids. The large...
متن کاملImpacts of seed priming with salicylic acid and sodium hydrosulfide on possible metabolic pathway of two amino acids in maize plant under lead stress
Heavy metals pollution is one of the key environmental problems. In this research, the effect of seed priming with salicylic acid and sodium hydrosulfide was investigated on methionine and arginine amino acids contents and some compounds derived from their metabolism as well as ZmACS6 and ZmSAMD transcripts levels in maize plants under lead stress. For this purpose, maize seeds were soaked in s...
متن کاملCompetitive metabolism of naphthalene, methylnaphthalenes, and fluorene by phenanthrene-degrading pseudomonads.
Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) typically exist as complex mixtures in contaminated soils, yet little is known about the biodegradation of PAHs in mixtures. We have isolated two physiologically diverse bacteria, Pseudomonas stutzeri P-16 and P. saccharophila P-15, from a creosote-contaminated soil by enrichment on phenanthrene as the sole carbon source and studied their ability to meta...
