    Notes: Summary Root-colonizingPseudomonas putida WCS358 enhances growth of potato in part by producing under iron-limiting conditions a yellow-green, fluorescent siderophore designated pseudobactin 358. This siderophore efficiently complexes iron(III) in the rhizosphere, making it less available to certain endemic microorganisms, including phytopathogens, thus inhibiting their growth. At least 15 genes distributed over five gene clusters are required for the biosynthesis of pseudobactin 358. High-affinity iron(III) transport in strain WCS358 is initiated by an 86-kDa outer membrane receptor protein (PupA) which appears to be specific for ferric pseudobactin 358. PupA shares strong similarity with TonB-dependent receptor proteins ofEscherichia coli, which suggests a TonB-like protein in strain WCS358 is required for iron(III) transport. Strain WCS358 possesses a second uptake system for ferric pseudobactin 358 and structurally diverse ferric siderophores produced by other microorganisms. A second receptor gene (pupB) responsible for iron transport from pseudobactin BN7 or pseudobactin BN8 has been identified. The production of this and certain other ferric siderophore receptor proteins requires that strain WCS358 be grown in the presence of these siderophores. An apparent regulatory gene required for the expression ofpupB is located adjacent topupB. Two positive regulatory genes have been identified which can independently activate, under low-iron(III) conditions, transcription of genes coding for the biosynthesis of pseudobactin 358.

    Notes: The functional interaction of surface cAMP receptors with effector enzymes via G-proteins was investigated in Dictyostelium discoideum. Several experimental conditions were used to investigate signal transduction, such as reduced temperatures, use of down-regulated cells and of mutants. The results are presented as a model describing the complex interaction between multiple forms of the surface cAMP receptor and different G-proteins that are responsible for the generation of the second messengers, cAMP, cGMP, InsP3 and Ca2+.

    Effects of high-temperature treatments on development, viability, and heat-shock response in a temperature-sensitive cell-lethal mutant of Drosophila melanogaster (1985)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Pulses of various durations at temperatures between 29 and 38°C were applied to developing larvae of Drosophila melanogaster carrying the temperature-sensitive cell-lethal mutation 1 (1)ts726. The results show that it is not possible to reduce the time required for the induction of abnormalities in the mutant by treating larvae with heat pulses at temperatures higher than 29°C. Instead, treatment with high temperature leads to fewer abnormalities than 29°C treatments. Furthermore with high temperature treatments, the mutation has less effect on viability than is seen at 29°C. It is suggested that 1 (1)ts726 leads to abnormalities and death by a temperature-induced imbalance between different physiological or development events, rather than by interfering with the ability of the cell or the organism to withstand high temperature in general.

    Notes: Tetrahymena thermophila has a multiple mating type system. While a sexually mature cell usually expresses only one mating type, its germline (micronucleus) carries the genetic potential for 5 to 7 mating types. The set of allowed mating types is specified by the mat locus. The choice of which particular mating type is expressed by a cell reflects a somatically inherited, developmentally programmed differentiation of the somatic nucleus (macronucleus). In this work we report that the mat locus maps to the left arm of chromosome 2, as determined by nullisomic deletion mapping. We also report a distance of 29 cM between the mat locus and the ribosomal RNA gene, previously mapped to chromosome 2L. This represents another (rare) case of meiotic linkage in Tetrahymena. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    The subcellular location of 4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase in Candida boidinii and its probable role in the breakdown of putrescine and spermidine (1988)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: 4-Aminobutyrate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.19) was elevated in activity by 20- to 40-fold in cells of the yeast Candida boidinii grown on spermidine, putrescine, 4-acetamidobutyrate and 4-aminobutyrate compared with activities detected in cells grown on ammonium, methylamine or 6-aminohexanoate, confirming previous suggesions that it plays a key role in polyamine breakdown. Other enzymes of the proposed route of polymine breakdown were found to be non-coordinately induced or derepressed during growth on spermidine or its putative breakdown intermediates. The enzyme was not sedimented from spheroplast lysates at 100 000 × g, and it is concluded that it is conclded that it is probably cytosoilc in its subcellular location (although the data do not exclude the possiblity of its being vacuolar).

    Notes: Strains of the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, may contain one or more cytoplasmic viruses with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) genomes. The killer phenomenon in yeast, in which one cell secretes a killer toxin that is lethal to another cell, is dependent upon the presence of the L-A and M1 dsRNA viruses. The L-A viral genome encodes proteins for the viral capsid, and for synthesis and encapsidation of single-stranded RNA replication cycle intermediates. The M1 virus depends upon the L-A-encoded proteins for its capsid and for the replication of its killer-toxin-encoding genome. A full-length cDNA clone of an M1 genome has been made from a single dsRNA molecule and shown to encode functional killer and killer-immunity functions. The sequence of the clone indicates minor differences from previously published sequences of parts of the M1 genome and of the complete genome of S14 (an internal deletion derivative of M1) but no unreported amino acid variants and no changes in putative secondary structures of the single-stranded RNA. A 118-nucleotide contiguous segment of the M1 genome has not previously been reported; 92 of those nucleotides comprise a segment of A nucleotides in the AU-rich bubble that follows the toxin-encoding reading frame. The GenBank Accession Number for the sequence is U78817; the locus is SCU78817. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Under conditions known to separate methylamine oxidase from benzylamine oxidase in other yeast strains, only a single oxidase could be detected in Sporobolomyces albo-rubescens. This occurred irrespective of whether methylamine or n-butylamine was the nitrogen source for growth. The oxidase did not attack benzylamine. It was concluded that this organism can only produce a methylamine oxidase. The enzyme was purified to 90% homogeneity and found to have properties significantly a methylamine oxidases previously characterised. It lost only 40% of its activity in 30 min at 45°C, whereas methylamine oxidase previously described had half-lives of from 2 to 9 min at 45°C. It showed also a lower activity with short chain 1-aminoalkanes and a higher activity with longer chain 1-aminoalkanes than other methylamine oxidases, and had a significantly smaller subunit molecular weight (57 000 compared with 80 000).

    Synthesis of superoxide dismutase, catalase and other enzymes and oxygen and superoxide toxicity during changes in oxygen concentration in cultures of brewing yeast (1991)

    Notes: The physiological effects on brewing yeast, growing in semi-defined wort medium, of a sudden transition from aerobiosis to anaerobiosis were studied. Two yeast strains were examined, used for ale and lager fermentations respectively. The reverse transition (from anaerobiosis to aerobiosis) was also examined. Transitions were applied by changing the sparging gas during growth or in stationary phase, and the effects on the specific activities of certain key enzymes and on the viability of the cultures were examined.Neither type of transition led to significant changes in growth rate, the rate of ethanol production or the specific activities of alcohol dehydrogenase and pyruvate decarboxylase. The most significant change was in the specific activity of CuZn-superoxide dismutase, which showed a rapid increase in activity on transition from anaerobiosis to aerobiosis, and a decrease in activity on the reverse transition. Catalase activity in the ale yeast generally followed that of CuZn-superoxide dismutase, whereas in the lager yeast it remained unchanged by the transitions. The transition from anaerobiosis to aerobiosis caused increases in citrate synthase and Mn-superoxide dismutase, though only after a significant lag period. Aerobic to anaerobic transitions caused a decrease in Mn-superoxide dismutase activity, while citrate synthase remained unchanged.Anaerobically grown cells showed a rapid loss in viability on exposure to oxygen (5-7% in the first hour), while aerobically grown cells were unaffected. When anaerobically grown cells were exposed to 0·25 mM-potassium superoxide, there was an 8% loss of viability within 10 min, whereas aerobic cells were not affected.It is concluded that the toxic effect of oxygen is due to superoxide (or a species derived from it) and that the CuZn-superoxide dismutase (but not the Mn-isoenzyme) plays a role in protecting the cells. The de novo synthesis of the CuZn-enzyme is not always rapid enough to confer full protection.
