Cloning of a new low-molecular-weight spore-specific protein gene from Bacillus megaterium.
Three EcoRI fragments of Bacillus megaterium DNA hybridized only under nonrestrictive conditions on Southern blots to a probe containing the previously cloned gene for protein C, a small, acid-soluble spore protein (SASP) from B. megaterium. All three fragments were cloned in Escherichia coli cells in plasmid pBR325, and after being transferred to an E. coli expression vector, one of the fragme...
متن کاملCloning and nucleotide sequence of the Bacillus megaterium gene coding for small, acid-soluble spore protein B.
The Bacillus megaterium gene coding for small, acid-soluble spore protein (SASP) B was cloned and its nucleotide sequence was determined. The amino acid sequence predicted from the DNA sequence was identical to that determined previously for SASP B, with the exception of the amino-terminal methionine predicted from the gene sequence which is presumably removed posttranslationally and an asparag...
متن کاملSpore germination of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 mutants.
Auxotrophic or antibiotic-resistant mutants of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 are capable of initiation of germination similar to the parental (QM B1551) prototrophic strain.
متن کاملLow-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatases of Bacillus subtilis.
In gram-negative organisms, enzymes belonging to the low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (LMPTP) family are involved in the regulation of important physiological functions, including stress resistance and synthesis of the polysaccharide capsule. LMPTPs have been identified also in gram-positive bacteria, but their functions in these organisms are presently unknown. We cloned two p...
متن کاملCharacterization of dacC, which encodes a new low-molecular-weight penicillin-binding protein in Bacillus subtilis.
The pbp gene (renamed dacC), identified by the Bacillus subtilis genome sequencing project, encodes a putative 491-residue protein with sequence homology to low-molecular-weight penicillin-binding proteins. Use of a transcriptional dacC-lacZ fusion revealed that dacC expression (i) is initiated at the end of stationary phase; (ii) depends strongly on transcription factor sigmaH; and (iii) appea...
