isolation and partial characterization of regulatory mutants of the pyrimidine pathway in salmonella typhimurium.mutants of salmonella typhimurium affected in the regulation of pyrimidine biosynthesis were isolated by two methods. the first involved screening for bacteria able to feed a pyrimidine-requiring indicator strain, and the second involved selection for bacteria simultaneously resistant to two pyrimidine analogues, 5-fluorouracil and 5-fluorouridine, in a s. typhimurium strain unable to degrade 5-fluorouridine. among the mutants isolated by these methods are constitutive mutants, producing high le ...19724551742
the pi-histidine factor of salmonella typhimurium: a demonstration that pi-histidine factor integrates into the chromosome.the salmonella typhimurium pi-histidine episome was identified by ames et al. (2) in an unstable partial revertant of a deletion mutation-containing strain, hisg203. hisg203 lacks the histidine operator, promoter, and part of the first structural gene. in this paper, we study some properties of pi factor and demonstrate a low frequency of pi integration into the chromosome at or near the histidine region.19724551760

partial characterization of phosphoribosyl transferase, phosphoribosyl anthranilate isomerase, and indole glycerol phosphate synthase from serratia marcescens.the molecular organization of the enzymes phosphoribosyl (pr) transferase, phosphoribosyl anthranilate (pra) isomerase, and indole glycerol phosphate (ingp) synthase of the tryptophan biosynthetic pathway of serratia marcescens was investigated and compared with that reported in other enteric bacteria. pra isomerase and ingp synthase activities were found to reside in a single polypeptide chain, a situation analogous to that in escherichia coli, salmonella typhimurium, and aerobacter aerogenes. ...19724559725
mannitol sensitivity.the addition of mannitol to cultures of salmonella typhimurium mutants missing mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase causes stasis or lysis. mannitol-1-phosphate accumulates intracellularly to concentrations of 20 mm. the incorporation of acetate into lipid is inhibited before cell wall, protein, or nucleic acid synthesis.19724559727
location of trpr mutations in the serb-thr region of salmonella typhimurium.tryptophan biosynthesis in salmonella is controlled by at least one regulatory gene, trpr, which is cotransducible with thr genes and not with the trp operon. mutations in trpr cause derepression of tryptophan enzyme synthesis and confer resistance to growth inhibition by 5-methyltryptophan. nineteen trpr mutations were mapped with respect to thra and serb markers by two-point (ratio) and three-point transduction tests. the results are all consistent with the site order serb80-trpr-thra59 on the ...19724559729
mutants of salmonella typhimurium that are insensitive to catabolite repression of proline degradation.in salmonella typhimurium the two enzymes of proline catabolism, proline oxidase and delta(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid dehydrogenase, are subject to catabolite repression when the cells are grown in the presence of glucose. mutants partially relieved of catabolite repression (putr) for the proline catabolic enzymes have been isolated by selection on agar plates containing glucose and proline. the specificity of the catabolite repression-insensitive character for the enzymes of proline utiliza ...19724559730
effect of cyclopentaneglycine on metabolism in salmonella typhimurium.cyclopentaneglycine (cpg) inhibited the growth of wild-type salmonella typhimurium. the inhibition was overcome by isoleucine or any isoleucine precursor formed after threonine. cpg appeared to mimic isoleucine as a strong inhibitor of the activity of l-threonine deaminase. the analogue was a poor inhibitor of isoleucyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase. cpg did not appear to be incorporated into protein nor did it replace isoleucine in repression. cells that had recovered from growth inhibit ...19724559733
regulation of homocysteine biosynthesis in salmonella typhimurium.the regulation of the homocysteine branch of the methionine biosynthetic pathway in salmonella typhimurium has been reexamined with the aid of a new assay for the first enzyme. the activity of this enzyme is subject to synergistic feedback inhibition by methionine plus s-adenosylmethionine. the synthesis of all three enzymes of the pathway is regulated by noncoordinate repression. the enzymes are derepressed in metj and metk regulatory mutants, suggesting the existence of regulatory elements com ...19724559736
iron uptake in salmonella typhimurium: utilization of exogenous siderochromes as iron carriers.aerobic microorganisms have evolved a variety of siderochromes, special ligands which can dissolve insoluble ferric iron and facilitate its transport into the cell. we have found that enb mutants of salmonella typhimurium blocked in the biosynthesis of enterobactin (its natural iron carrier) are able to utilize siderochromes of different types made by other microorganisms as iron carriers. the antibiotic albomycin delta(2) was used to select mutants defective in ferrichrome-mediated iron uptake. ...19724559824
regulation of histidyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase formation in a histidyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase mutant of salmonella typhimurium.control of formation of the histidyl-transfer ribonucleic acid (trna) synthetase with an increased k(m) for histidine was studied in a hiss mutant of salmonella typhimurium. histidine restriction of both the hiss and hiss(+) strains resulted in a derepression of synthesis of histidyl-trna synthetase. when grown in a concentration less than the k(m) (100 mug/ml) of l-histidine, the hiss mutant maintained a higher level of histidyl-trna synthetase than the hiss(+) strain. addition of excess amount ...19724559825
genetic transfer of salmonella typhimurium and escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide antigens to escherichia coli k-12.escherichia coli k-12 varkappa971 was crossed with a smooth salmonella typhimurium donor, hfrk6, which transfers early the ilv-linked rfa region determining lipopolysaccharide (lps) core structure. two ilv(+) hybrids differing in their response to the lps-specific phages fo and c21 were then crossed with s. typhimurium hfrk9, which transfers early the rfb gene cluster determining o repeat unit structure. most recombinants selected for his(+) (near rfb) were agglutinated by salmonella factor 4 an ...19724559827
