NIC, a conjugative nicotine-nicotinate degradative plasmid in Pseudomonas convexa.

Abstract:

:The plasmid nature of genes specifying degradation of nicotine and nicotinate in Pseudomas convexa strain 1 (Pc1) is indicated by mitomycin curing and conjugational transfer to other strains. The NIC plasmid appears to be compatible with other metabolic plasmids in Pseudomonas putida.

  • Homology with a repeated Yersinia pestis DNA sequence IS100 correlates with pesticin sensitivity in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.

    abstract::We have identified IS100 sequences in a specific subset of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis isolates that were also sensitive to the Y. pestis-produced bacteriocin, pesticin. In contrast, Y. pseudotuberculosis strains which did not contain IS100 sequences were not sensitive to pesticin. We propose that IS100 serves as a mo...
