Journal ArticleDOI
Deoxyribonucleic Acid Antibody: A Method to Detect Its Primary Interaction with Deoxyribonucleic Acid
TL;DR: This sensitive and specific technique, which measures the primary interaction between DNA and antibody to DNA, is based on the observation that free DNA is soluble in 50-percent saturated ammonium sulfate whereas antibody-bound DNA is insoluble.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosomal Location of Genes Regulating Resistance to Bacteriophage in Bacillus subtilis
TL;DR: Analysis by deoxyribonucleic acid-mediated transformation indicates that anomalies in mapping in the group II region of the chromosome exist and these loci exist in a cluster between the hisA1 and argC4 loci.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competence in Bacillus subtilis Transformation System
TL;DR: Cell fractionation studies indicate that the newly acquired DNA is bound to the cytoplasmic membrane, not the cell wall, after uptake of tritiated DNA into the bacterial cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic interactions between cell wall polymers, extracellular proteases and autolytic enzymes.
W.C. Brown,Frank E. Young +1 more
TL;DR: A sporulation mutant of Bacillus subtilis 168 contains three autolytic activities with pH optima at 5.5, 8.0 and 9.0, which might explain why sporulation mutants lyse more rapidly than the parent strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Bacillus subtilis NRRL B-3275 as a Strain of Bacillus pumilus
Paul S. Lovett,Frank E. Young +1 more
TL;DR: The biotin requirement of B-3275, its inability to hydrolyze starch, and its failure to reduce nitrate indicate that the organism is more closely related to the B. pumilus strains than to those of B. subtilis.
