The role of the evolutionarily conserved residue Pro-53 in Proteus mirabilis glutathione transferase B1-1 has been examined by replacing it with a serine residue using site-directed mutagenesis. The effect of the replacement on the activity, thermal stability and antibiotic binding capacity of the
Betalamic acid, the chromophore of betaxanthins, was enzymatically synthesized on a large scale from l-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) using recombinant Mirabilis jalapa DOPA 4,5-dioxygenase. After synthesis, proline was directly added to the concentrated reaction mixture to generate
Self-transmissible plasmids carrying his and nif genes from Klebsiella pneumoniae have been introduced into three his mutants of Proteus mirabilis: strains 5006-1, WR19 and WR20. Expression of his by the transconjugants was unequivocal, if slightly temperature-sensitive, but none was Nif+ when
After 3-4 h in a rich fluid medium such as brain--heart infusion broth, motile nonseptate filaments developed from normal short rods and formed about 80% of the cell mass of Proteus mirabilis PM23. This developmental pattern was not observed in any of the other nine representatives of the species.
[14C]penicillin binding experiments and membrane analysis were carried out with cell envelope preparations from Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis. After incubation with [14C]penicillin G labeled free lipoprotein could be identified. The analysis of the isolated lipoprotein by SDS polyacrylamide
Plant-associated bacteria can have beneficial effects on the growth and health of their host. However, the role of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPR), under metal stress, has not been widely investigated. The present study investigated the possible mandatory role of plant growth promoting
Petroleum not only benefits the world economy but also contaminates the soil. In order to select the plants tolerant to petroleum, the physiological response of two petroleum tolerant-contrasting plants, Mirabilis jalapa and Orychophragmus violace, were investigated in variation of
