Bacteriophage resistance of a deltathyA mutant of Lactococcus lactis blocked in DNA replication.
The thyA gene, which encodes thymidylate synthase (TS), of Lactococcus lactis CHCC373 was sequenced, including the upstream and downstream regions. We then deleted part of thyA by gene replacement. The resulting strain, MBP71 deltathyA, was devoid of TS activity, and in media without thymidine, such as milk, there was no detectable dTTP pool in the cells. Hence, DNA replication was abolished, a...
متن کاملPlasmid involvement in the formation of a spontaneous bacteriophage insensitive mutant of Lactococcus lactis.
Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis DPC721 is a spontaneous bacteriophage insensitive mutant of strain DPC220, isolated after challenge with an industrial bacteriophage, phi D1. Plasmid analysis demonstrated that the bacteriophage insensitivity was associated with the absence of two native DPC220 plasmids (pAH82 and pAH33), and the presence of a novel plasmid (pAH90) in DPC72...
متن کاملSequence analysis of the lactococcal plasmid pNP40: a mobile replicon for coping with environmental hazards.
The conjugative lactococcal plasmid pNP40, identified in Lactococcus lactis subsp. diacetylactis DRC3, possesses a potent complement of bacteriophage resistance systems, which has stimulated its application as a fitness-improving, food-grade genetic element for industrial starter cultures. The complete sequence of this plasmid allowed the mapping of previously known functions including replicat...
متن کاملConstruction of vaccine from Lactococcus lactis bacteria using Aeromonas hydrophila virulent Aerolysin gene
In this study the forward and reverse primers were designated to amplify the segments (~250 bps and ~650 bps) of the gene coding domains 1 and 4 of aerolysin of Aeromonas hydrophila. These two domains are involved in pathogenesis of the aerolysin gene. Sequences for two restriction enzymes, Pst I and Hind III, were included in the forward and reverse primers respectively. These restriction enz...
متن کاملCloning of EprA1 gene of Aeromonas hydrophila in Lactococcus lactis
Bacterial-based systems as live vectors for the delivery of heterologous antigens offer a number of advantages as vaccination strategies. Developments in genetic engineering have given Gram-positive lacticacid bacteria (LAB) the advantage of being used as a host expression system for antigen delivery to inducethe immune response. A fragment containing the full length of the “eprA1” ...
