Cloning Systems in Amino Acid–Producing Corynebacteria

TL;DR: The availability of cloned genes and transformation and transfection systems in corynebacteria will facilitate gene amplification studies, and the removal of bottlenecks in the amino acid biosynthetic pathways, thus leading to increased production of amino acids.

Transformation of Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans, Corynebacterium glutamicum, and Escherichia coli with the C. diphtheriae plasmid pNG2.

TL;DR: The host range of pNG2 suggests its possible utility in or as a shuttle vector for the study and manipulation of genes from corynebacterial strains of animal origin.

2 Identification and Analysis of Plasmids at the Genetic Level

TL;DR: Observation that plasmids in bacteria in which genetic analysis is currently limited or impossible are as amenable to detailed molecular study as those from the genetically well-characterized bacteria suggests that these elements are ubiquitous among prokaryotes and are likely to be detected in any species in which a thorough search is made.

Conjugative Plasmid in Corynebacterium flaccumfaciens subsp. oortii That Confers Resistance to Arsenite, Arsenate, and Antimony(III)

TL;DR: A conjugative 46-megadalton plasmid (pDG101) is found in Corynebacterium flaccumfaciens subsp.

Prophage distribution in coryneform bacteria

TL;DR: Four temperate bacteriophages of corynebacteria were isolated after UV induction and cross-hybridizations between phage DNAs and total cellular DNA obtained from 20 strains belonging to the genera Corynebacterium and Brevibacterium showed the presence of these prophages in strains other than their respective hosts.

Replica plating and indirect selection of bacterial mutants

TL;DR: An approach to this problem that makes use of a replica plating technique which facilitates the handling of large numbers of bacterial clones for classification on a variety of media is concerned.

Transduction of lactose-utilizing ability among strains of E. coli and S. dysenteriae and the properties of the transducing phage particles.

TL;DR: Transduction of the lac + property by phage P1 among strains of Escherichia coli K12 and Shigella dysenteriae Sh has been studied and a variety of P1 dl elements is postulated to account for the properties of different Sh lac v transductant strains.

Transducing fragments in generalized transduction by phage P1 I. Molecular origin of the fragments

TL;DR: The analysis of the phage yield by CsCl density-gradient centrifugation showed that the transducing particles carrying various chromosomal genes have a density and band profile similar to those prepared on bromouracil-labelled bacteria in a medium containing bromouredacil.
