Transformation of germinated spores of Bacillus subtilis on agar plates.
l-Alanine-germinated spores of Bacillus subtilis developed a competence on agar plates after 10 h of incubation. Addition of marker amino acid to the plates was required for the transformation.
متن کاملSimple, fast and high‐efficiency transformation system for directed evolution of cellulase in Bacillus subtilis
Bacillus subtilis can serve as a powerful platform for directed evolution, especially for secretory enzymes. However, cloning and transformation of a DNA mutant library in B. subtilis are not as easy as they are in Escherichia coli. For direct transformation of B. subtilis, here we developed a new protocol based on supercompetent cells prepared from the recombinant B. subtilis strain SCK6 and m...
متن کاملEvidence for natural transformation of Bacillus subtilis in foodstuffs.
The effect of foodstuffs on the natural transformation of Bacillus subtilis was investigated. As examples of complex food matrices milk with various fat contents as well as chocolate milk were used. The frequencies of transformation varied with the fat content and ranged between 3.8 X 10(-4) and 1.4 X 10(-3). Highest frequencies of about 3 X 10(-3) were observed in chocolate milk with 1.5% fat....
متن کاملDevelopment of competence in the Bacillus subtilis transformation system.
Competence in Bacillus subtilis, assayed by the ability of cells to be transformed with bacterial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or transfected by phage DNA, has been shown to occur in a single semisynthetic medium with peak activity occurring 3 hr after the cessation of logarithmic growth. No step-down conditions or culture manipulations were necessary for routine transfection of 1% of the popula...
متن کاملBiochemical Aspects of Competence in the Bacillus subtilis Transformation System
A lytic factor, associated with the cell wall, was fortuitously discovered during the course of the investigations described in the previous paper (1). In the pneumococcal transformation system (2-5) as well as in the Bacillus subtilis transformation system (6), the highly transformable strains possessed active autolytic enzymes. Consequently, studies were undertaken to investigate the relation...
