Characterization of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa recA analog and its protein product: rec-102 is a mutant allele of the P. aeruginosa PAO recA gene
(American Society for Microbiology, 1987-04)
We cloned a 2.3-kilobase-pair fragment of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO chromosome which is capable of complementing recA mutations of Escherichia coli. The recA-complementing activity was further localized to a ...
Effects of norfloxacin on DNA metabolism in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(American Society for Microbiology, 1986-01)
Norfloxacin is a quinolone (pyridonecarboxylic acid derivative) effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. We studied the effects of this drug on DNA metabolism in P. aeruginosa. Norfloxacin inhibits DNA replication ...
Expression of the recA gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO is inducible by DNA-damaging agents
(American Society for Microbiology, 1988-05)
Western (immunoblot) analysis using Escherichia coli anti-RecA antiserum revealed that expression of the RecA protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO is induced upon exposure of the bacterium to UV irradiation or norfloxacin, ...
Mucoid conversion by phages of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from patients with cystic fibrosis
(American Society for Microbiology, 1984-05)
A total of 21 of 22 independent isolates of cystic fibrosis-associated Pseudomonas aeruginosa were found to be lysogenic for DNA-containing, complex capsid viruses. Several of the phages demonstrated the ability to select ...
Cloning and characterization of the cl repressor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage D3: A functional analog of phage lambda cI protein
(American Society for Microbiology, 1987-05)
We cloned the gene (cl) which encodes the repressor of vegetative function of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage D3. The cloned gene was shown to inhibit plating of D3 and the induction of D3 lysogens by UV irradiation. ...
Potential for transduction of plasmids in a natural freshwater environment: Effect of plasmid donor concentration and a natural microbial community on transduction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(American Society for Microbiology, 1987-05)
Transduction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa plasmid Rmsl49 by the generalized transducing bacteriophage phi-DS1 was shown to occur during a 9-day incubation of environmental test chambers in a freshwater reservoir. Plasmid DNA ...
Further research on the classification of mucoid strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(American Society for Microbiology, 1984-09)
Characterization of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa recA gene: The Les- phenotype
(American Society for Microbiology, 1988-02)
The Les- phenotype (lysogeny establishment deficient) is a pleiotropic effect of the lesB908 mutation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO. lesB908-containing strains are also (i) deficient in general recombination, (ii) sensitive ...
Conjugal transfer of R68.45 and FP5 between Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains in a freshwater environment
(American Society for Microbiology, 1988-08)
Recent concern over the release of genetically engineered organisms has resulted in a need for information about the potential for gene transfer in the environment. In this study, the conjugal transfer in Pseudomonas ...
