Bacterial molecular epidemiology based on a nonradioactive probe complementary to ribosomal RNA.

Abstract:

:The use of plasmid pKK3535 (a pBR322-derived plasmid containing a ribosomal RNA operon) is described for determining rRNA gene restriction patterns. The plasmid allowed the use of both radioactive as well as nonradioactive procedures and provided features that are necessary for the inclusion of internal and/or external standards that facilitate comparison of strains. The patterns generated are identical to those obtained by hybridization with 32P-labelled rRNA.

  • In-frame fusion of a His-Cys motif into the Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane OprI lipoprotein results in increased metal binding capacity by Escherichia coli.

    abstract::OprI, a small outer membrane lipoprotein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, can be produced in large amounts and anchored at the surface on Escherichia coli cells. A four-time repeated (His-Cys) motif was fused to the C-terminal part of OprI. After induction, E. coli cells harbouring the recombinant oprI gene became more se...
