متن کاملThe cell-bound penicillinase of Bacillus cereus.
Only 30-50 yo of the cell-bound penicillinase of Bacillus cereus NRRL 569 is neutralized by antiserum prepared against the exo-penicillinase. The unneutralizable fraction is not decreased by cell disintegration which liberates a proportion of the cell-bound enzyme into solution. Absence of neutralization cannot therefore be explained by the existence of a mechanical barrier which prevents acces...
متن کاملPenicillin and cell wall synthesis: a study of Bacillus cereus by electron microscopy.
The changes in wall structure of a penicillinase micro-constitutive strain of Bacillus cereus (569/H/24), on exposure to penicillin, and after its removal by addition of penicillinase, have suggested the following model for the growth of the walls of these cylindrical cells. Longitudinal extension is by addition of material to a large and continuously increasing number of growing points uniform...
متن کاملPeptidoglycan from Bacillus cereus mediates commensalism with rhizosphere bacteria from the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group.
Previous research in our laboratory revealed that the introduction of Bacillus cereus UW85 can increase the populations of bacteria from the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium (CF) group of the Bacteroidetes phylum in the soybean rhizosphere, suggesting that these rhizosphere microorganisms have a beneficial relationship (G. S. Gilbert, J. L. Parke, M. K. Clayton, and J. Handelsman, Ecology 74:840-854, 1...
متن کاملCloning of the genes for penicillinase, penP and penI, of Bacillus licheniformis in some vector plasmids and their expression in Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus licheniformis.
By using plasmid pMB9, penicillinase genes (penP and penI) from both the wild-type and constitutive strains of Bacillus licheniformis 9945A were cloned in EScherichia coli. When a low-copy-number plasmid was used, both wild-type and constitutive penicillinase genes could be transferred into Bacillus subtilis. However, when a high-copy-number plasmid was used, only the genes of the wild type cou...
