Agropine in "null-type" crown gall tumors: Evidence for generality of the opine concept.

Agrobacterium Ti (tumor-inducing) plasmids, the causative agents of crown gall disease, fall into four genetic groups based on the patterns of octopine and nopaline synthesis (by crown gall tumors) and catabolism (by Agrobacterium tumefaciens) for which they are responsible. Two classes of Ti plasmids induce tumors that synthesize neither octopine nor nopaline. The existence of these Ti plasmid...

A cooperative virulence plasmid imposes a high fitness cost under conditions that induce pathogenesis.

Harbouring a plasmid often imposes a fitness cost on the bacterial host. Motivated by implications for public health, the majority of studies on plasmid cost are focused on elements that impart antibiotic resistance. Plasmids, however, can provide a wide range of ecologically important phenotypes to their bacterial hosts-such as virulence, specialized catabolism and metal resistance. The Agroba...

Plasmid-encoded phthalate catabolic pathway in Arthrobacter keyseri 12B.

Several 2-substituted benzoates (including 2-trifluoromethyl-, 2-chloro-, 2-bromo-, 2-iodo-, 2-nitro-, 2-methoxy-, and 2-acetyl-benzoates) were converted by phthalate-grown Arthrobacter keyseri (formerly Micrococcus sp.) 12B to the corresponding 2-substituted 3,4-dihydroxybenzoates (protocatechuates). Because these products lack a carboxyl group at the 2 position, they were not substrates for t...

The Plasmid-coded Metabolism of Naphthalene and 2-Methylnaphthalene in Pseudomonas Strains: Phenotypic Changes Correlated with Structural Modification

Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 9816 contains two plasmids: pWW60, an IncP9 plasmid of 87 kb encoding genes for the catabolism of naphthalene, and pWW61, a cryptic plasmid of about 65 kb. The ability to degrade naphthalene was transferred at low frequency by conjugation from strain NCIB 98 16 into a plasmid-free strain of Pseudomonasputida, PaW340. A transconjugant, PaW701, containing the naphthalene plas...

Functional role of the Ti plasmid-encoded catabolic mannopine cyclase in mannityl opine catabolism by Agrobacterium spp.

Catabolic mannopine (MOP) cyclase encoded by Ti or Ri plasmids lactonizes MOP to agropine (AGR). The gene of the octopine-type Ti plasmid pTi15955 encoding the catabolic MOP cyclase enzyme previously was localized to a 1.6-kb segment within a cosmid clone, pYDH208. A subclone containing only this region complemented the AGR catabolism-negative phenotype conferred by a derivative of the octopine...
