Versatile cloning vector for Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The Versatile Mutational Resistome of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

One of the most striking features of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is its outstanding capacity for developing antimicrobial resistance to nearly all available antipseudomonal agents through the selection of chromosomal mutations, leading to the failure of the treatment of severe hospital-acquired or chronic infections. Recent whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data obtained from in vitro assays on the evol...

pPCV, a versatile vector for cloning PCR products

The efficiency of PCR product cloning depends on the nature of the DNA polymerase employed because amplicons may have blunt-ends or 3' adenosines overhangs. Therefore, for amplicon cloning, available commercial vectors are either blunt-ended or have a single 3' overhanging thymidine. The aim of this work was to offer in a single vector the ability to clone both types of PCR products. For that p...

Cloning of Pf3, a filamentous bacteriophage of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, into the pBD214 vector of Bacillus subtilis.

The genome of Pf3, a filamentous single-stranded DNA bacteriophage of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (a gram-negative organism) was cloned into pBD214, a plasmid cloning vector of Bacillus subtilis (a gram-positive organism). Cloning in the gram-positive organism was done to avoid anticipated lethal effects. The entire Pf3 genome was inserted in each orientation at a unique Bc/I site within a thymidyla...

Use of ureidopenicillins for selection of plasmid vector transformants in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida.

Broad-host-range plasmids coding for beta-lactamase were successfully selected after transformation of Pseudomonas strains. Transformants of both Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida containing plasmid pRO1614 were isolated in media containing low concentrations of piperacillin. These strains were also susceptible to other ureidopenicillins. Similar selections of transformants with car...
