The symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti harbors a gene, SMc02396, which encodes a predicted outer membrane porin that is conserved in many symbiotic and pathogenic bacteria in the order Rhizobiales. Here, this gene (renamed ropA1) is shown to be required for infection by two commonly utilized transducing bacteriophages (ΦM12 and N3). Mapping of S. meliloti mutations confe...
Sinorhizobium fredii strain USDA208 is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium that forms nodules on roots of soybean and other legume plants. We previously found that the Tn5-containing mutant 208T3, which was derived from strain USDA208, is both deficient in production of exopolysaccharides and more competitive than the wild-type strain in competing against other rhizobia for nodulation of soybean. We no...
The SMc01113/YbeY protein, belonging to the UPF0054 family, is highly conserved in nearly every bacterium. However, the function of these proteins still remains elusive. Our results show that SMc01113/YbeY proteins share structural similarities with the MID domain of the Argonaute (AGO) proteins, and might similarly bind to a small-RNA (sRNA) seed, making a special interaction with the phosphat...
Hydantoin racemase from Sinorhizobium meliloti was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli. The native form of the enzyme was a homotetramer with a molecular mass of 100 kDa. The optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme were 40 degrees C and 8.5, respectively. The enzyme showed a slight preference for hydantoins with short rather than long aliphatic side chains or those with aromatic rings....
Ensifer (syn. Sinorhizobium) meliloti is an important symbiotic bacterial species that fixes nitrogen. Strains BO21CC and AK58 were previously investigated for their substrate utilization and their plant-growth promoting abilities showing interesting features. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence and annotation of these strains. BO21CC and AK58 genomes are 6,985,065 and 6,974,333 bp l...
Lucerne is regarded as the best legume crop for forage to be cultivated in South Africa. It commonly used produce good quality hay. also plays an important role soil conservation, regeneration, and rotation systems it supplies substantial amounts of nitrogen succeeding crops through symbiotic N2 fixation, which makes preferable choice intensive production systems. Fertilizer liquid inoculant fo...
Identification of an iron-regulated, hemin-binding outer membrane protein in Sinorhizobium meliloti.
Rhizobia are soil bacteria that are able to establish symbiotic associations with leguminous hosts. In iron-limited environments these bacteria can use iron present in heme or heme compounds (hemoglobin, leghemoglobin). Here we report the presence in Sinorhizobium meliloti of an iron-regulated outer membrane protein that is able to bind hemin but not hemoglobin. Protein assignment was done by m...
Sinorhizobium meliloti is a gram-negative soil bacterium capable of forming a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing relationship with its plant host, Medicago sativa. Various bacterially produced factors are essential for successful nodulation. For example, at least one of two exopolysaccharides produced by S. meliloti (succinoglycan or EPS II) is required for nodule invasion. Both of these polymers are pr...
