Dual substrate specificity of Bacillus subtilis PBP4a.
Bacterial dd-peptidases are the targets of the β-lactam antibiotics. The sharp increase in bacterial resistance toward these antibiotics in recent years has stimulated the search for non-β-lactam alternatives. The substrates of dd-peptidases are elements of peptidoglycan from bacterial cell walls. Attempts to base dd-peptidase inhibitor design on peptidoglycan structure, however, have not been ...
متن کاملBacillus subtilis as a Host for Recombinant Hemagglutinin Production of the Influenza A (H5N1) Virus
Abstract Background and Aims: Influenza A(H5N1) viruses circulating in animals might evolve and acquire the ability to spread from human to human and thus start a pandemic. Hemagglutinin (HA) has been shown to play a major role in binding of influenza virus to its target cell and the main neutralizing antibody responses elicit against this region. Recent studies have shown that...
متن کاملIntroduction of host-controlled modification and restriction systems of Bacillus subtilis IAM1247 into Bacillus subtilis 168.
Bacillus subtilis IAM1247 had two modification and restriction systems (Bsu1247I and Bsu1247II), the former producing an isoschizomer of PstI endonuclease. A transformant clone was isolated which had Bsu 168, BsuR, and Bsu1247I systems coexisting within a genome.
متن کاملSpecificity of RppH-dependent RNA degradation in Bacillus subtilis.
Bacterial RNA degradation often begins with conversion of the 5'-terminal triphosphate to a monophosphate, creating a better substrate for subsequent ribonuclease digestion. For example, in Bacillus subtilis and related organisms, removal of the gamma and beta phosphates of primary transcripts by the RNA pyrophosphohydrolase RppH triggers rapid 5'-exonucleolytic degradation by RNase J. However,...
متن کاملSpecificity of the tyrosine-phenylalanine transport system in Bacillus subtilis.
l-Tyrosine and l-phenylalanine enter cells of Bacillus subtilis via a system of active transport that exhibits complex kinetic behavior. The specificity of the transport system was characterized both at low concentrations of transport substrate (where affinity for l-tyrosine or l-phenylalanine is high but capacity is low) and at high concentrations (where affinity is low but capacity is high). ...
