Complete Genome Sequence of Bacillus megaterium Bacteriophage Eldridge
In this study the complete genome sequence of the unique bacteriophage Eldridge, isolated from soil using ITALIC! Bacillus megateriumas the host organism, was determined. Eldridge is a myovirus with a genome consisting of 242 genes and is unique when compared to phage sequences in GenBank.
متن کاملExclusion of induced bacteriophage from cells of a lysogenic Bacillus megaterium committed to sporulation.
Spontaneous release of the temperate bacteriophage T (phiT), carried by Bacillus megaterium 899a, occurred during early growth of the host cells. Rejuvenated cells (accomplished by a 5x dilution in fresh medium) and unrejuvenated cells were induced by mitomycin C during the course of sporulation and subsequent phage phiT production measured by burst size. Induction of sequential samples of unre...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Tphi3, a bacteriophage for Bacillus stearothermophilus.
A bacteriophage (Tphi3) which infects the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 8005 was isolated and characterized. Infection of the bacterium by the bacteriophage was carried out at 60 C, the optimal growth temperature of the host. At 60 C, the phage had a latent period of 18 min and a burst size of about 200. The phage was comparatively thermostable in broth. The halflife o...

Weibull, Claes (Central Bacteriological Laboratory of Stockholm City, Stockholm, Sweden). Plasmolysis in Bacillus megaterium. J. Bacteriol. 89:1151-1154. 1965.-Sucrose solutions stronger than 1 m caused plasmolysis in Bacillus megaterium strain M, whereas concentrated NaCl and KNO(3) solutions were ineffective. In plasmolyzed cells, mesosome bodies were found in pockets between the cytoplasmic ...
متن کاملBiolistic transformation of a procaryote, Bacillus megaterium.
We present a simple and rapid method for introducing exogenous DNA into a bacterium, Bacillus megaterium, utilizing the recently developed biolistic process. A suspension of B. megaterium was spread onto the surface of nonselective medium. Plasmid pUB110 DNA, which contains a gene that confers kanamycin resistance, was precipitated onto tungsten particles. Using a biolistic propulsion system, t...
