چکیده
Twenty-six Acinetobacter calcoaceticus proline auxotrophs were isolated after ethyl methane sulfonate mutagenesis. Studies using the efficient transformation system of this organism indicate that the mutations comprise therr genetically distinct groups.

Chromosome mapping in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
RP4-mediated conjugation was used to map the loci of 23 different mutations on a circular linkage group in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus EBF65/65. The resulting genetic map indicated that the chromosomal organization of A. calcoaceticus differed from that of members of the enteric group of bacteria and was similar to Pseudomonas in showing an absence of clustering of functionally related genes.
متن کاملRegulation of enzyme synthesis in the tryptophan pathway of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
In Acinetobacter calcoaceticus the seven genes coding for the enzymes responsible for tryptophan synthesis map at three chromosomal locations. Two three-gene clusters, one (trpGDC) specifying the small subunit of anthranilate synthase, phosphoribosyl transferase, and indoleglycerol phosphate synthase and the other (trpFBA) specifying phosphoribosyl anthranilate isomerase and both tryptophan syn...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence and Methylome Analysis of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus 65
Acinetobacter calcoaceticus 65 is the original source strain for the restriction enzyme Acc65I. Its complete sequence and full methylome were determined using single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing.
متن کاملSelection of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus mutants deficient in the p-hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase gene (pobA), a member of a supraoperonic cluster.
p-Hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase, the product of the pobA gene, gives rise to protocatechuate, which is metabolized by enzymes encoded by the pca operon in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. Mutations in pcaD prevented growth of A. calcoaceticus with succinate in the presence of p-hydroxybenzoate. Mutants selected on this medium contained the original mutation in pcaD and also carried spontaneous mutati...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of xcpR encoding a subunit of the general secretory pathway necessary for dodecane degradation in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus ADP1.
A mutant of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus ADP1 unable to grow on alkanes was complemented for growth on hexadecane with a DNA fragment encoding a protein with homology to XcpR, a subunit of the general secretion pathway for exoproteins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Insertional inactivation of xcpR in A. calcoaceticus ADP1 by transcriptional fusion to lacZ abolishes secretion of lipase and esterase a...
