Mechanism of the enzymatic synthesis of cardiolipin in Escherichia coli.
In previous studies, the enzymatic conversion of phosphatidylglycerol to cardiolipin (diphosphatidylglycerol) in cell-free preparations from E. coli was shown to be stimulated by the addition of CDP-dipalmitin, suggesting the participation of the cytidine coenzyme as phosphatidyl donor. The present communication, however, presents three lines of evidence supporting the following mechanism for t...
متن کاملImmunological study on cardiolipin from Escherichia coli.
For the first time we found that cardiolipin was contained abundantly in Eschrichia coli, and we succeeded in isolating and purifying it as reported previously. With this E. coli cardiolipin a study was made on its reactivity to Wassermann antibody reagin by OGATA’S box titration, and the following results were obtained. L The purity of cardiolipin prepared from E. coli has been found to be sat...
متن کاملSynthesis and Expression of Modified bFGF Gene in Escherichia coli Cells
A new strategy for construction of synthetic gene encoding human basic fibroblast growth factor comprising DNA annealing-ligation and augmentation by polymerase chain reaction was introduced. The sequence of the gene and corresponding amino acid chain were modified in order to increase stability of the protein. First, 300 bp and 160 bp fragments of the gene were assembled from 18 oligonucleotid...
متن کاملCloning of a gene responsible for the biosynthesis of glutathione in Escherichia coli B.
A gene (gshI) responsible for gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GSH-I) activity was cloned to construct an Escherichia coli B strain having high glutathione synthesizing activity. For this purpose, two E. coli B mutants (strains C912 and RC912) were used. C912 was deficient in GSH-I activity. RC912, a revertant of C912, had a GSH-I activity that was desensitized to feedback inhibition of reduc...
متن کاملIDENTIFICATION OF THE astA GENE IN ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI STRAINS RESPONSIBLE FOR DIARRHEA IN PIGS
The astA gene responsible for production of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli heatstable enterotoxin 1 (EAST1) was identified in E. coli strains isolated from pigs with postweaning diarrhea. Two hundred and twenty-six isolates were tested using PCR for the astA marker as well as for heat-labile I (LTI), heat-stable I (STI), and heat-stable II (STII) enterotoxin genes characteristic for enterot...
