It was shown that the determinant was capable of amplifying in the chromosomes of S. rimosus during its improvement for increasing the level of resistance to kanamycin. Cloning of the Kanr determinant was performed on the Pst I-A fragment of the SLP 1.2 plasmid in S. lividans 66. The Kanr determinant was expressed in the resulting hybrid plasmids, e. g. pSU 3, thus providing resistance of S. lividans to 20 micrograms/ml of kanamycin. As a result of repeated passages variants capable of growing in the presence of 50 000 micrograms/ml of the antibiotic were selected. The electrophoretic analysis of the total DNA fragments obtained after exposure to different endonucleases showed that they were identical to the respective fragments of the hybrid pSU 3 plasmid and amounted to approximately 40 per cent of the total DNA. The presence of the unique sites for the Bam HI, ClaI and SacI restriction endonucleases on the pSU 3 plasmid in an insignificant area and the relative stability (30-100 per cent) of the amplified variants allowed using it for cloning and amplification of DNA in Streptomyces. Plasmids were identified with the genetic and physical methods in 13 strains of the blue systematic group among the 72 strains studied. A multicopy plasmid with a molecular weight of 5.6 MD designated as pSB 24.1 was identified in the family of the plasmids of S. cyanogenus. The deletion and insertion variants of the pSB 24.1 plasmid were obtained. The comparative study of the properties of these plasmids revealed the areas insignificant for replication and maintenance of the pSB 24.1 plasmid and the area determining the Ltz+-phenotype. It was suggested that formation of the deletion and insertion variants of the pSB 24.1 plasmid was provided by the site specific recombination mechanisms. The presence of the unique sites for a number of the restriction endonucleases located in the insignificant area, the presence of the selective marker and the high transformation frequency allowed one to consider the multicopy pSB 24.1 plasmid an acceptable vector for cloning of DNA in Streptomyces.</p>","PeriodicalId":7959,"journal":{"name":"Antibiotiki","volume":"29 8","pages":"563-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17158778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiments were performed on the cultures of L-cells (murine fibroblasts). Penicillin and vancomycin were used as the transforming agents. Electron microscopy revealed clear changes in the morphological structure of both species when the doses of penicillin and vancomycin were 50-100 and 250-1500 micrograms/ml, respectively. The antibiotics had a morphologically analogous effect on both species of Rickettsia. The resulting morphological structures were large oval spheroplast-like cells with significant expansion of the periplasmic space up to 1 X 1.75 micron under the effect of penicillin and 0.5 X 0.7 micron under the effect of vancomycin. R. akari was somewhat more sensitive to the antibiotics. Electron microscopy of the morphological changes in the Rickettsia induced by penicillin and vancomycin showed that they were similar to the changes observed in gram-negative bacteria on their L-transformation and to the penicillin forms of chlamydia (galprovia) and R. prowazekii.

The analysis of the concentration and temperature changes showed that the erythromycin association was accounted for by the hydrogen linkage of OH ... O = C to the ester group. In the monomer molecule of erythromycin, all hydroxyl groups participated in the intramolecular hydrogen linkage. Band 3513 cm-1 belonged to the OH group in the five-membered cycles of OH ... O. Components 3500, 3530 and 3560 cm-1 of the wide band vOH were assigned to the cycles with OH ... N and OH ... O linkages of a larger size. The association was due to a break in a part of the intramolecular hydrogen linkages. Addition of strong acceptors of proton-hexamethanol and trioctylphosphinoxide to the solution resulted in attenuation of these bands and appearance of a strong band vOH of the erythromycin-acceptor complexes. In the presence of monochloroacetic acid in the solution of CHCl3 stoichiometric protonization of erythromycin was observed. The total acid was in the form of anion (vaCO-2 1610 cm-1) up to a ratio of 1:1. The protonization proceeded according to the nitrogen atom since the antibiotic spectrum in the region of vC=O did not change.
