Transformability of streptomycin-resistant group H streptococci.
Several resistant mutants of a transformable group H streptococcus, strain Challis, were isolated from media containing high concentrations of streptomycin. Mutants SR5a and SR5 exhibited high and low transformability, respectively, when exposed to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from a novobiocin-resistant Challis strain. With similar exposure, mutant SR30 exhibited loss of transformability. The m...
متن کاملCompetence factor production in chemically defined media by noncompetent cells of group H Streptococcus strain Challis.
Chemically defined media for competence factor (CF) production by group H Streptococcus strain Challis-6 are described. CF is produced by noncompetent cells in a glutamate-free medium in which the cells cannot attain competence and by cells prior to their competence development in a glutamate-containing medium. Glutamate was required for competence development, but was not necessary for growth ...
متن کاملAccumulation of 14C-streptomycin by streptomycin-sensitive and streptomycin-resistant group H streptococci.
Three streptomycin-resistant mutants of group H streptococcus, strain Challis, were examined for ability to accumulate (14)C-streptomycin. Although the mutants exhibited different levels of transformation, only the streptomycin-sensitive parent Challis strain accumulated significant amounts of (14)C-streptomycin. It appears that impermeability to streptomycin does not necessarily result in redu...
متن کاملPreparation of protoplasts of group H streptococci (Streptococcus sanguis).
Stable protoplasts of several strains of group H streptococci (Streptococcus sanguis) can be prepared by use of group C streptococcal phage-associated lysin in the presence of 30% raffinose. Sucrose cannot be substituted for raffinose. Protoplast formation did not require the addition of Mg2+; however, this cation enhanced their stability. Some other strains, also presumptive group H streptococ...

Bacteriol. 92:1357-1363. 1966.-A defined transforming medium (DTM) containing buffer and 5 to 10 mug per ml of deoxyribonucleic acid was developed to study the physical and chemical requirements for optimal transformation in streptococcal strain SBE. Opt...
