High Efficiency of Plating of the Thermophilic Sulfur-Dependent Archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure for plating Sulfolobus acidocaldarius using Gelrite as the gelling agent is presented. The technique uses a supporting gel of 0.8% (wt/vol) Gelrite and an overlay soft gel of 0.4% (wt/vol) Gelrite, in which the colonies are grown. The plating efficiency was essentially 100%.

Circular chromosomal DNA in the sulfur-dependent archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.
The shape of the chromosomal DNA of the sulfur-dependent archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius was analyzed by the pulsed-field gel electrophoresis(PFGE). S.acidocaldarius DNA digested with Notl showed two DNA bands at around 1.0 Mbp and 2.1 Mbp. Notl-linking clones were isolated from the library of S.acidocaldarius chromosomal DNA. It contained two Notl sites. Both 1.0 and 2.1 Mbp DNA band...
متن کاملSequences of the 5S rRNAs of the thermo-acidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus (Caldariella acidophila) and the thermophilic eubacteria Bacillus acidocaldarius and Thermus aquaticus.
We have determined the nucleotide sequences of the 5 S rRNAs of three thermophilic bacteria: the archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus, also named Caldariella acidophila, and the eubacteria Bacillus acidocaldarius and Thermus aquaticus. A 5 S RNA sequence for the latter species had already been published, but it looked suspect on the basis of its alignment with other 5 S RNA sequences and its...
متن کاملArchaebacterial Citrate Synthases: The Enzymes from the Thermoacidophiles Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and Thermoplasma acidophilum Show pro-S Stereospecificity
Citrate synthase from the thermoacidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius was purified 365-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity. At 40 °C and pH 8.1 the homogeneous enzyme shows a specific activity of 73 units per mg, which corresponds to a turnover number of 44 sec-1. Citrate synthase from S. acidocaldarius shows pro-S stereospecificity, as is found with a partially purified prepara...
متن کاملStructural and functional exchangeability of 5 S RNA species from the eubacterium E.coli and the thermoacidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus.
The role of 5 S RNA within the large ribosomal subunit of the extremely thermophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus has been analysed by means of in vitro reconstitution procedures. It is shown that Sulfolobus 50 S subunits reconstituted in the absence of 5 S RNA are inactive in protein synthesis and lack 2-3 ribosomal proteins. Furthermore, it has been determined that in the course of...
متن کاملGlycogen-bound polyphosphate kinase from the archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.
Glycogen-bound polyphosphate kinase has been isolated from a crude extract of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius by isopycnic centrifugation in CsCl. Divalent cations (Mn2+ greater than Mg2+) stimulated the reaction. The enzyme does not require the presence of histones for its activity; it is inhibited strongly by phosphate and slightly by fluoride. The protein from the glycogen complex migrated in a so...
