Regulation of the expression of prtW::gusA fusions in Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora.
Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, a Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacterium, secretes an extracellular metalloprotease, PrtW. Previous results demonstrated that protease activity is necessary for the normal progression of disease symptoms caused by this bacterium. The present study revealed that the prtW gene constitutes an independent transcriptional unit. It is demonstrated that introduct...
متن کاملEfficient transformation of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica.
We used a modified version of the method of Hanahan (D. Hanahan, J. Mol. Biol. 166:557-580, 1983) to transform Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica with the plasmids pBR322, pBR325, and pAT153. The transformation frequency ranged from 1 X 10(2) to 4 X 10(4) colonies per micrograms of plasmid DNA. The nature of these transformants was confirmed by plasmid ana...
متن کاملCloning and expression in Escherichia coli of pectinase genes of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora.
Genes coding for an endo-pectate lyase, an exo-pectate lyase, and an endopolygalacturonase of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora Ecc71 were cloned in Escherichia coli HB101, using the cosmid pHC79. The products of the cloned pectinase genes paralleled their counterparts in strain Ecc71 in isoelectric mobility, mode of substrate degradation, and ability to macerate potato tuber tissue.

متن کاملQuorum sensing in the plant pathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora: the role of expR(Ecc).
The production of the main virulence determinants of the plant pathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, the extracellular cell wall-degrading enzymes, is partly controlled by the diffusible signal molecule N-(3-oxohexanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (OHHL). OHHL is synthesized by the product of the expI/carI gene. Linked to expI we found a gene encoding a putative transcriptional regulator of ...
