Plasmid Involvement in Linalool Metabolism by Pseudomonas fluorescens.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A bacterial strain was isolated from a wastewater lagoon and identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens. This isolate was able to utilize linalool as a sole carbon and energy source. The ability was found to be encoded on a 60-megadalton transmissible plasmid, pSRQ60. The plasmid was also mated into a commercial waste treatment strain, which expanded its ability to utilize other isoprenoid compounds.

Pseudomonas fluorescens
nas incognita have been previously described as being able to utilize citronellol, geraniol, and linalool (3, 6). Recently, a 50-megadalton (MDa) plasmid has been associated with the degradation of geraniol (9). In this report we describe the isolation of a Pseudomonas fluorescens s train capable of utilizing linalool as a sole carbon and energy source and demonstrate the presence of a transmis...
متن کاملChromate resistance plasmid in Pseudomonas fluorescens.
Chromate resistance of Pseudomonas fluorescens LB300, isolated from chromium-contaminated sediment in the upper Hudson River, was found to be plasmid specified. Loss of the plasmid (pLHB1) by spontaneous segregation or mitomycin C curing resulted in a simultaneous loss of chromate resistance. Subsequent transformation of such strains with purified pLHB1 plasmid DNA resulted in a simultaneous re...
متن کاملIdentification of Pseudomonas fluorescens Chemotaxis Sensory Proteins for Malate, Succinate, and Fumarate, and Their Involvement in Root Colonization
Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf0-1 exhibited chemotactic responses to l-malate, succinate, and fumarate. We constructed a plasmid library of 37 methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein (MCP) genes of P. fluorescens Pf0-1. To identify a MCP for l-malate, the plasmid library was screened using the PA2652 mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, a mutant defective in chemotaxis to l-malate. The introduction o...
متن کاملThe genome of Pseudomonas fluorescens strain R124 demonstrates phenotypic adaptation to the mineral environment.
Microbial adaptation to environmental conditions is a complex process, including acquisition of positive traits through horizontal gene transfer or the modification of existing genes through duplication and/or mutation. In this study, we examined the adaptation of a Pseudomonas fluorescens isolate (R124) from the nutrient-limited mineral environment of a silica cave in comparison with P. fluore...
