Summary A gustatory mutant ofDrosophila melanogaster insensitive to the taste of salt has been isolated. Genetic crosses and a deletion mapping analysis show that this mutation, designatedgust-M 1 is located in the 93C3–6-93D6–7 region of the third chromosome.gust-M 1 is also insensitive to the taste of quinine sulfate. The behavior of this mutant may be explained by assuming thatgust-M 1 could be a mutation perturbing functions in the central nervous system affecting the responses to both compounds.  相似文献

Summary The levels of ammonia assimilatory enzymes have been studied in a nif–III mutant and a wild strain ofAzotobacter chroococcum grown in media containing different nitrogen sources. It is suggested that the nif–III mutant may be defective in transport or incorporation of molybdenum.  相似文献

Summary An alkaloid-blocked mutant ofClaviceps purpurea was isolated from a strain which produces ergotoxine alkaloids. The mutant accumulates chanoclavine-I and the corresponding aldehyde. It lacks the ability to form tetracyclic ergolines.Dedicated to Prof. Dr Dr h.c. K. Mothes on the occasion of his eightieth birthday.  相似文献

To understand the role of calcium ions in thigmotaxis inParamecium caudatum, the effects of caffeine, ruthenium red and lanthanum (LaCl3) on thigmotaxis were examined. Thigmotaxis in the CNR mutant, which lacks voltage-dependent Ca2+-channels in the ciliary membrane, was also examined. Ruthenium red and LaCl3 suppressed thigmotaxis inP. caudatum, while caffeine enhanced it. The CNR mutant showed hardly any thigmotaxis. It can be thought that an increase in Ca2+ influx and the intraciliary concentration of Ca2+ ions induces thigmotaxis inParamecium.  相似文献

Summary Photolabile azido fatty acids supported the growth of fatty acid auxotrophs, thecel mutant ofNeurospora crassa and the KD115 mutant ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. These fatty acids were incorporated into the membrane lipids of thecel and KD115 mutants, but were not used by the wild type strain.This work was presented at the 26th International Congress of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Session 1, Tokyo, September 4–10, 1977, abstracts p. 241.Support was provided by the Govt. of India to B.C. and by NCERT, New Delhi India to D.N.C.To whom requests for reprints should be sent.  相似文献

Summary The intracellular synthesis of ppApp in a conditionally asporogenous rifampin-resistant mutant ofBacillus subtilis stimulated to sporulate in the Sterlini-Mandelstam (SM) medium supplemented with ppApp is negligible and comparable to that of the non-sporulating culture. The formic acid extract from the sporulating culture stimulates sporulation of the mutant in SM medium.This paper was presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology in Dallas, Texas, in March 1981.

This review traces some of the key features of the folding of β-lactamases and their relevance to the way proteins fold in general. Studies on the enzymes have highlighted the nature and role of equilibrium and transient condensed states. The kinetics of folding are multiphasic, and when monitored by acrylamide quenching of the tryptophan fluorescence, an early phase provides evidence for the transient accumulation of a nonnative intermediate involving burial of tryptophan in a nonpolar environment. Intermediate phases can be understood in terms of progressive folding of different parts of the molecule. The later, slow phases are associated with proline isomerization in the TEM-1 enzyme and, in its P167T mutant form, with isomerization from trans to cis of the E166 T167 peptide bond. Coupled with kinetic and X-ray crystallographic studies of the β-lactamase from Staphylococcus aureus and its D179Q mutant, it appears that the final stage of folding is that of collapse and packing of the Ω-loop on to the main body of the protein.  相似文献

Summary Studies on the incidence of melanophores in older ventral trunk tissues and in isolated regions of periodic albino embryos ofXenopus suggest that melanin granule formation in mutant melanoblasts depends on an environmental contribution which arises at stage 43 in the endodermal tissues.  相似文献

Summary By feeding14C-daunorubicin to a doxorubicin-producing mutant ofStreptomyces peucetius, labelled doxorubicin and 13-dihydrodaunorubicin have been obtained; this indicates that the former compound is a precursor of both the latter ones in the fermentation process.  相似文献

Summary The specific binding activity to [14C]thiamine was found to be located in the plasma membrane ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. The activity was inhibited by several thiamine analogs and it was hardly detectable in the plasma membrane from a thiamine transport mutant ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. Some properties of the thiamine-binding activity of yeast plasma membrane are discussed in connection with those of the thiamine transport system.  相似文献

Summary Diuron (DCMU) is inhibitory to the photoautotrophic and photoheterotrophic growth of the N2-fixing blue-green algaNostoc muscorum at concentrations of 1.0×10–5 M and 2.0×10–5 M, respectively. A mutant of this organism resistant to 5.0×10–5 M DCMU under its photoheterotrophic growth conditions, with the ability to utilize DCMU as a carbon and nitrogen source for growth, and complete inability to grow photoautotrophically has been isolated. With the apparent defect in its photosynthetic ability, it is suggested that theDCMU r mutant lacks the step inhibited by 1.0×10–5 M DCMU, and metabolizes DCMU by an existing enzyme system in the absence of such inhibition. That this enzyme may be glutamine synthetase (GS) is explained with the help of a L-methionine-DL-sulfoximine (MSO)-resistant mutant ofN. muscorum which is able to grow faster with 2.0×10–5 DCMU and is known to contain an altered GS.Thanks are due to the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, CSIR Complex, Govt. of India, New Delhi-110012, for appointing the author to the Scientists' Pool for undertaking researches on the physiological and genetic controls of nitrogen metabolism in blue-green algae, a part of which is presented in this literature.  相似文献

Summary The antigens and soluble proteins ofNeurospora crassa wild-type and its conidiation deficient mutant amyc were analyzed by immunoelectrophoresis and acrylamide gel electrophoresis respectively. Comparison of the patterns of the soluble proteins of the 2 strains, obtained with both techniques, showed an alteration of antigens and proteins in the mutant. A specific antigenic protein present in the wild-type, presumably in connection with conidiation, was also found in the mutant amyc when it was induced to form conidia.  相似文献

Summary We have tested the light-scattering properties of suspensions of theDictyostelium discoideum mutantHH201 derived from the mutantFr17. Previous studies indicated thatHH201 andFr17 possess highly irregular rhythmic properties which might represent aperiodic oscillations, i.e. chaos. We report that the former mutant can display regular oscillatory behavior. Possible explanations for this result are discussed, including that of a transition from chaotic to periodic behavior resulting from some parameter change or from strong intercellular coupling in cell suspensions.  相似文献

Summary The mutant hairy (h) increases the number of sensillae on theDrosophila wing. This allows us to quantify a gradient that determines the type of sense organ that forms along the third long vein. Temperature significantly shifts the positional responses to this underlying gradient.This research was supported by National Science Foundation grant BSR-8300025. We thank Laura Karcher for the figure.  相似文献

Summary A spontaneous mutant ofP. anserina isolated by screening for benomyl resistance exhibited a diurnal growth rhythm dependent on light-dark cycles. The rhythmic character, the benomyl resistance and a growth rate reduced to 50% of that of the wild type were inherited together over more than 10 generations. The locus was mapped on linkage group II, 0.35 map units distal to the locusz (=0.81 map units from the centromere).  相似文献
