To study the localization and expression of the ColIb-P9 plasmid genes responsible for colicin Ib synthesis and immunity to it, we isolated a series of Tn5 insertion mutants of recombinant plasmid pIV41 containing the colicin Ib gene in EcoRI fragment of ColIb-P9 (2.7 kb) and the deletion plasmid carrying only a part of the colicin gene. The direction of colicin Ib gene transcription was determined by the analysis of the polypeptides synthesized in minicells carrying the mutant plasmids. The pIV41 plasmid containing cells have been shown to be resistant to both colicin Ib and Ia activities. This type of resistance is usually associated with chromosomal mutations resulting in loss of cell receptors for colicin Ib adsorption. Apparently, the EcoRI fragment of ColIb-P9 studied contains no gene responsible for immunity to colicin. It has been shown that this gene is a portion of SalI fragment (22 kb) of the ColIb-P9, the fragment also carrying the gene which mediates synthesis of colicin Ib.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids.

D004352 Drug Resistance, Microbial The ability of microorganisms, especially bacteria, to resist or to become tolerant to chemotherapeutic agents, antimicrobial agents, or antibiotics. This resistance may be acquired through gene mutation or foreign DNA in transmissible plasmids (R FACTORS).

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
