    Notes: Abstract The activation of DnaA protein by cardiolipin is inhibited by fluphenazinein vitro. We therefore examined the sensitivity of temperature-sensitivednaA mutants ofEscherichia coli to fluphenazine and other phenothiazine derivatives. Among the eightdnaA mutants tested,dnaA5, dnaA46 dnaA602, anddnaA604, mutants with mutations in the putative ATP binding site of DnaA protein, showed higher sensitivities to phenothiazine derivatives than did the wild-type strain. ThednaA508 anddnaA167 mutants, which have mutations in the N-terminal region of DnaA protein, also showed higher sensitivities to phenothiazine derivatives. On the other hand, thednaA204 anddnaA205 mutants, with lesions in the C-terminal region of the DnaA protein, showed the same sensitivity to phenothiazine derivatives as the wild-type strain. Complementation analysis with a plasmid containing the wild-typednaA gene and phage P1-mediated transduction confirmed thatdnaA mutations are responsible for these sensitivity phenotypes.

    Notes: Abstract  We report here that in Escherichia coli, the anti-bacterial agent nalidixic acid induces transient stabilization and increased synthesis of σ32, accompanied by the induction of heat shock proteins (Dnak and GroEL proteins). The induction of heat shock proteins, increased synthesis of σ32, and stabilization of σ32 observed on treatment of wild-type cells with nalidixic acid were not observed in a nalA26 mutant, a strain that is resistant to nalidixic acid as the result of a mutation in the gyrA gene. Not only oxolinic acid, but also novobiocin, whose targets are the A and B subunits of DNA gyrase, respectively, also induced stabilization and increased synthesis of σ32. Thus, inhibition of the activity of DNA gyrase may cause stabilization and increased synthesis of σ32, resulting in turn in induction of heat shock proteins.
