Genome‐wide sequencing of Phytophthora lateralis reveals genetic variation among isolates from Lawson cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) in Northern Ireland
16-05-2013 | Lisa Quinn, Paul A. O'Neill, James Harrison, Konrad H. Paskiewicz, Alistair R. McCracken, Louise R. Cooke, Murray R. ..., FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Phytophthora lateralis is a fungus‐like (oomycete) pathogen of trees in the family Cupressaceae, including Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (Lawson cypress or Port Orford cedar). Known in North America since the 1920s, presumably having been accidentally introduced from its assumed East ...
Corrinoid activation by a RACE protein: Studies on the interaction of the proteins involved
15-05-2013 | Hai Dang Nguyen, Sandra Studenik, Gabriele Diekert, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract The O‐demethylases of anaerobes are corrinoid‐dependent, ether‐cleaving methyltransferase enzyme systems consisting of four components. The interaction of the O‐demethylase components of the acetogenic bacterium Acetobacterium dehalogenans was studied by protein mobility on ...
rptA, a novel gene from Ensifer (Sinorhizobium) meliloti involved in conjugal transfer
15-05-2013 | Mariano Pistorio, Gonzalo A. Torres Tejerizo, María Florencia Del Papa, María de los Angeles Giusti, Mauricio Lozano ..., FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract We approached the identification of Ensifer (Sinorhizobium) meliloti conjugal functions through random Tn5‐B13 mutagenesis of the pSmeLPU88a plasmid of E. meliloti strain LPU88 and the subsequent selection of those mutants that had lost the ability to mobilize the small plasmid ...
The impact of the conjugative IncP‐1 plasmid pKJK5 on multispecies biofilm formation is dependent on the plasmid host
10-05-2013 | Henriette Lyng Røder, Lars Hestbjerg Hansen, Søren Johannes Sørensen, Mette Burmølle, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Horizontal gene transfer by conjugation has been reported to increase overall biofilm formation. Biofilm is considered a hot spot for plasmid transfer and it has been found that social interactions during biofilm formation can increase the biomass. In this study we demonstrate a ...
Acetate metabolism and Escherichia coli biofilm: new approaches to an old problem
08-05-2013 | Ty Lynnes, Birgit M. Prüβ, Priyankar Samanta, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Current antibiotics continue to lose effectiveness for infectious diseases, especially in cases where the bacteria from a biofilm. This review article summarizes control mechanisms for bacterial biofilm, with an emphasis on the modification of signal transduction pathways, such ...
Transformation of Beauveria bassiana to produce EGFP in mealworms for use as animal feed additives
08-05-2013 | Jae Su Kim, Jae Young Choi, Se Jin Lee, Ju Hyun Lee, Zhenli Fu, Margaret Skinner, Bruce L. Parker, Yeon Ho Je, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Efforts are underway to develop more effective and safer animal feed additives. Entomopathogenic fungi can be considered practical expression platforms of functional genes within insects which have been used as animal feed additives. In this work, as a model the enhanced green ...
Involvement of the Ribose Operon Repressor RbsR in Regulation of Purine Nucleotide Synthesis in Escherichia coli
08-05-2013 | Tomohiro Shimada, Ayako Kori, Akira Ishihama, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Escherichia coli is able to utilize D‐ribose as a sole carbon source. The genes for the transport and initial‐step metabolism of D‐ribose form a single rbsDACBK operon. RbsABC forms the ABC‐type high‐affinity D‐ribose transporter while RbsD and RbsK are involved in the conversion ...
Application of BRED technology to construct recombinant D29 reporter phage expressing EGFP
08-05-2013 | Joas Lucas da Silva, Mariana Piuri, Gregory Broussard, Laura Marinelli, Gisele Medeiros Bastos, Rosario Dominguez Cr ..., FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract Bacteriophage Recombineering of Electroporated DNA (BRED) has been described for construction of gene deletion and point mutations in mycobacteriophages. Using BRED, we inserted a Phsp60‐egfp cassette (1143 bp) into the mycobacteriophage D29 genome to construct a new reporter ...
The occurrence of bleaching stripe disease in Gracilaria corticata and controlling of the disease using quorum quenching approach
08-05-2013 | Nitu Tanwar, Ravindra Pal Singh, Arun Kumar Das, Indra Kumar Gadhvi, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract In the present study, the Gram‐negative bacteria Vibrio and Pseudoalteromonas species associated with Gracilaria corticata found to be opportunistic pathogens that caused bleaching stripe disease on its host. Consortium of these pathogens induced maximum disease symptoms with ...
Genetic engineering of Lactobacillus diolivorans
02-05-2013 | Stefan Pflügl, Hans Marx, Diethard Mattanovich, Michael Sauer, FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013
Abstract In the present study we developed a toolbox for genetic manipulation of Lactobacillus diolivorans, a promising production organism for 1,3‐propanediol from glycerol. Two major findings play a key role for successful transformation of this organsim: (i) The absence of a native ...
