Transformation in group H streptococci: blackburn strain transformable mutants.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transformable mutants of the nontransformable Blackburn strain group H streptococci have been isolated. In contrast with the wild strain, the cell surface extracts of these mutants contain the factor inactivating deoxyribonucleic acid in vitro.

Cellular sites for the competence-provoking factor of streptococci.
Immune globulins against competent cells of group H streptococci, strains Challis and Wicky, inhibited genetic transformation to streptomycin resistance when added to competent cultures. Antibodies against noncompetent cells did not inhibit transformation of competent cells. Strain Challis is spontaneously highly transformable. Strain Wicky is very poorly transformable but can be converted to h...

متن کاملTransformability of streptomycin-resistant group H streptococci.
Several resistant mutants of a transformable group H streptococcus, strain Challis, were isolated from media containing high concentrations of streptomycin. Mutants SR5a and SR5 exhibited high and low transformability, respectively, when exposed to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from a novobiocin-resistant Challis strain. With similar exposure, mutant SR30 exhibited loss of transformability. The m...
