Mobile group II introns ("targetrons") can be programmed for insertion into virtually any desired DNA target with high frequency and specificity. Here, we show that targetrons expressed via an m-toluic acid-inducible promoter from a broad-host-range vector containing an RK2 minireplicon

Molecular bioSystems, 8(7), 1950-1957 (2012-05-17)
In this report, we experimentally demonstrate that improving the cis-regulatory region of a target promoter can significantly enhance the response to an otherwise poor inducer. The transcriptional factor (TF) BenR of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 is a member of the AraC/XylS

Journal of general microbiology, 133(7), 1891-1899 (1987-07-01)
The effect of various lipophilic weak acids on the stability of certain TOL plasmids was investigated. Benzoate induced deletion of TOL plasmid DNA in Pseudomonas putida MT15, followed by loss of the plasmid; this effect was pH- and concentration-dependent, suggesting

A psychrotrophic bacterium, originally isolated from a natural aquatic environment, was characterized and identified as Pseudomonas putida Q5 for use as a representative recipient for biodegradative genes from a mesophilic microorganism. The TOL plasmid pWWO of the mesophile P. putida

A collection of 50 indigenous meta-toluate tolerating bacteria isolated from oil-contaminated rhizosphere of Galega orientalis on selective medium was characterized and identified by classical and molecular methods. 16S rDNA partial sequencing showed the presence of five major lineages of the
