induced rapid release and uptake of phosphate by microorganisms.cultures of bacteria and of mixed microorganisms are able to release actively a large proportion of their phosphorus to the medium in a matter of hours when kept under anoxic conditions. only phosphorus is lost, probably as orthophosphate and apparently mostly from the acid-soluble fraction of the cells. the process, which is completely reversible upon aeration, has a change in rate (for a change of 10 degrees c) of 2 to 2.5.19674959890

x-ray diffraction studies on selected bacterial cell walls.the cell walls of selected bacteria were studied by x-ray diffraction analysis to determine and characterize crystalline components. the walls were isolated by mechanical disruption and purified by enzymatic and washing procedures. the x-ray diffraction lines which appeared from the gram-positive cell walls were shown to be due to the constituent "mucopeptide" fraction. no diffraction lines could be obtained from the gram-negative bacterium studied. the results show that crystallinity is associa ...19674960150

ultraviolet irradiation of dna in vitro and in vivo produces a 3d thymine-derived product.a new thymine-derived product was separated from dna irradiated with utlraviolet light in vitro and in vivo. this compound was mistaken to be thymine homodiner (t=t) by other workers because it is chromatographically indistinguishable from t=t in most eluents. it has absorbancy maximums at 312, 312, and 300 millimicrons in neutral, ph 2, and ph 11 aqueous solutions, respectively. when it is irradiated in aqueous solution with wavelengths of 360 and 313 millimicrons its spectrum reverts to one si ...19674960673

the production of tryptamine from tryptophan by bacillus cereus (kvt).1. a strain of bacillus cereus has been isolated that can produce tryptamine when grown in a broth containing tryptophan. 2. the conditions of culture under which this conversion is optimum, as well as the general pathways of tryptophan metabolism by this micro-organism, have been examined, and the information obtained has been used to obtain the first demonstration of cell-free tryptophan-carboxy-lyase activity. 3. the significance of these findings both to the current attempts to elucidate the ...19664960870
regulation of extracellular protease production in bacillus cereus.both sporulation and protease production can be inhibited by growing bacillus cereus t in a medium containing a high concentration of a mixture of amino acids. mutants selected for the ability to sporulate in this inhibitory medium were found to produce high levels of protease in the normal and inhibitory media. comparison of the mutant and wild-type enzymes by gel electrophoresis and heat inactivation suggested that they were identical. one of the mutants proved to be a purine-requiring auxotro ...19674960917
fatty acids in the genus bacillus. i. iso- and anteiso-fatty acids as characteristic constituents of lipids in 10 species.fatty acids produced by 22 strains of 10 species of the genus bacillus were analyzed on a very efficient and selective gas-liquid chromatographic column. all of the 10 species, alvei, brevis, cereus, circulans, licheniformis, macerans, megaterium, polymyxa, pumilus, and subtilis, produced eight fatty acids, six branched (anteiso-c(15), anteiso-c(17), iso-c(14), iso-c(15), iso-c(16), and iso-c(17)) and two normal (n-c(14) and n-c(16)). in all cases, the six branched-chain fatty acids made up over ...19674960925
extracellular hemolysins of aerobic sporogenic bacilli.forty-five strains, representing 18 species of the genus bacillus, were surveyed for production of hemolysin against rabbit erythrocytes. broth cultures of b. cereus, b. alvei, and b. laterosporus contained lysins that closely resembled streptolysin o. b. subtilis and a single strain of b. cereus may produce lysins having characteristics different from those of streptolysin o.19674960930

ordered synthesis of proteins during outgrowth of spores of bacillus cereus.the onset of macromolecular synthesis in activated spores of bacillus cereus occurs under conditions in which the amino acids and nucleotides to be used for building proteins and nucleic acids must be derived only from stored pools and turnover of macromolecules of the spore. upon addition of the factors required to initiate germination, (14)c-uracil is incorporated with a lag of 30 to 60 sec; (14)c-amino acids, with a lag of 3 to 4 min. the progression of protein synthesis during germination ha ...19674961412

conversion of ddt to ddd by pathogenic and saprophytic bacteria associated with plants.of 27 microorganisms examined, 23 plant pathogenic and saprophytic bacterial species were found to convert p,p' ddt to p,p' ddd under anaerobic conditions. the range of conversion of ddt (10 micrograms per milliliter) during an incubation of 14 days was from a trace to over 5 micrograms per milliliter, with the majority of the bacteria showing the greatest activity during the final 7-day period. there is evidence that metabolites of ddt other than ddd are also produced.19674961613

survival of microorganisms in a simulated martian environment. ii. moisture and oxygen requirements for germination of bacillus cereus and bacillus subtilis var. niger spores.the effects of moisture and oxygen concentration on germination of bacillus cereus and b. subtilis var. niger spores were investigated in a simulated martian environment. less moisture was required for germination than for vegetative growth of both organisms. a daily freeze-thaw cycle lowered moisture requirements for spore germination and vegetative growth of both organisms, as compared with a constant 35 c environment. oxygen had a synergistic effect by lowing the moisture requirements for veg ...19674961769

improved assay method for phospholipase c.a lecithin sol dispersed with deoxycholate was found to be attacked by phospholipase c in the presence of calcium ion more rapidly than were any other lecithin sols. the inorganic phosphate could be released quantitatively from the acid soluble phosphate liberated from lecithin by an excess amount of alkaline phosphatase present in phospholipase c reaction mixture. a simple and accurate assay method for phospholipase c was developed with the sol and the alkaline phosphatase.19674962285

induction of penicillinase with inorganic phosphate.phosphate stimulates penicillinase formation in bacillus cereus 569. the rate of penicillinase synthesis in the presence of 0.3 m phosphate, ph 7.0, is approximately 10-fold greater than that for uninduced cells, while the rate of synthesis in the presence of 0.3 m phosphate and 1 unit/ml of penicillin is approximately fourfold greater than in the presence of penicillin alone. when phosphate-induced cells are transferred to low phosphate medium, the rate of penicillinase synthesis rapidly revert ...19674964486

nonselective incorporation into sporangium of either "older" or "younger" chromosome of the vegetative cell during sporulation in bacillus cereus.employing bacillus cereus strain 2, we examined the fate of two chromosomes contained in vegetative cells in the course of sporulation. cytological observations and quantitative estimation of deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) confirmed the earlier observations that, during the course of sporulation, one of two chromosomes of the vegetative cell was incorporated into the sporangium and the other disappeared into the medium as the result of cell lysis. log-phase cells, labeled completely with thymine-2- ...19674965196

biosynthesis of biotin in microorganisms. v. control of vitamer production.use of a yeast-lactobacillus differential microbiological assay permitted investigation into the synthesis of biotin vitamers by a variety of bacteria. a major portion of the biotin activity was found extracellularly. the level of total biotin (assayable with yeast) greatly exceeded the level of true biotin (assayed with lactobacillus). values for intracellular biotin generally showed good agreement between the assays, suggesting the presence of only true biotin within the cells. bioautographic ...19674965364
tracer studies to locate the site of platinum ions within filamentous and inhibited cells of escherichia coli.the distribution of platinum ions within escherichia coli after the induction of filaments with cis-pt(nh(3))(2)cl(4), and after growth inhibition by ptcl(6) (2-), has been determined with radioactive metal compounds ((191)pt, with a half-life of approximately 3 days) by the simple chemical procedure of roberts et al. in the filamentous cells, the platinum metal is associated with metabolic intermediates, nucleic acids, and cytoplasmic proteins; whereas, in inhibited cells, the platinum is combi ...19674965367
