Chromosome mapping in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
نویسنده
چکیده
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.

Complete Genome Sequence of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus CA16, a Bacterium Capable of Degrading Diesel and Lignin
We report here the complete assembled genome sequence of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus CA16, which is capable of utilizing diesel and lignin as a sole carbon source. CA16 contains a 4,110,074-bp chromosome and a 5,920-bp plasmid. The assembled sequences will help elucidate potential metabolic pathways and mechanisms responsible for CA16's hydrocarbon degradation ability.
متن کاملGene transfer in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus: fertility variants of the sex factor pAV1.
The naturally occurring transmissible plasmid pAV1 mediates chromosome transfer and can exhibit two distinct levels of transmissibility in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus strain EBF65/65. The two states of pAV1 have been arbitrarily designated pAV1a (low frequency variant) and pAV1b (high frequency variant). Both variants have the same incompatibility and host range properties and each mobilizes tw...
متن کاملCloning and expression in Escherichia coli of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus genes for benzoate degradation.
The catabolic genes necessary for the conversion of benzoate to catechol have been cloned from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus into Escherichia coli. The cloned genes, benABCD, encoded both a benzoate 1,2-dioxygenase system, composed of NADH-cytochrome c reductase and terminal oxygenase components, and a cis-diol dehydrogenase. The dioxygenase system appears to be encoded by three genes, benABC, wh...
متن کاملNovel Oxadiazole Thioglycosides as Potential Anti- Acinetobacter Agents
The glycosylation of 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones has been performed with peracetylated β-pyranosyl bromide in the presence of potassium carbonate. Deprotection of acetylated thioglycosides was necessary for increasing their antibacterial effects. The structure of nucleosides were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. The anomeric protons of nucleosides c1–4 were assigned to the doublet, confirm...
متن کاملDirected introduction of DNA cleavage sites to produce a high-resolution genetic and physical map of the Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1 (BD413UE) chromosome.
The natural transformability of the soil bacterium Acinetobacter sp. ADP1 (BD413UE), formerly classified as A. calcoaceticus, has facilitated previous physiological and biochemical investigations. In the present studies, the natural transformation system was exploited to generated a physical and genetic map of this strain's 3780 +/- 191 kbp circular chromosome. Previously isolated Acinetobacter...
