These clones contained recombinant cosmids with B. cereus DNA insertions of varying lengths which shared some common restriction fragments. The smallest insertionwas recloned as aPstl fragment into pJKK3-1, a shuttle vector which repücates in Bacillus subtilis and E. coli. When this recombinant plasmid (pJKK3-1 hly-1) was transformed into E. coli, it caused hemolysis on erythrocyte agar plates, but in liquid assays no extemal or intemal hemolytic activity could be detected with the E. coli transformants. B. subtilis carrying the same plasmid exhibited hemolytic activity at Ievels comparable to those ofthe B. cereus donor strain. The hemolysin produced in B. subtilis seemed to be indistinguishable from cereolysin in its sensitivity to cholesterol, activation by dithiothreitol, and inactivation by antibodies raised against cereolysin. When the recombinant DNA carrying the cereolysin gene was used as a probe in hybridization experiments with chromosomal DNA from a streptolysin 0-producing strain of Streptococcus pyogenes or from üsteriolysin-producing strains of Usteria monoeytogenes, no positive hybridization signals were obtained. These data soggest that the genes for these three SH-activated cytolysins do not have extended sequence homology. 1983 urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-60596 Theodor-Boveri-Institut für Biowissenschaften OPUS4-5094 Wissenschaftlicher Artikel Härtlein, Michael; Schiessl, Sigrid; Wagner, Wilma; Rdest, Ursula; Kreft, Jürgen; Goebel, Werner Transport of hemolysin by Escherichia coli No abstract available 1983 urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-60619 Theodor-Boveri-Institut für Biowissenschaften
