Bliss, Joseph M., Garon, Claude F., Silver, Richard P.
The polysialic acid (polySia) capsule of Escherichia coli K1 is a key virulence determinant of the organism, allowing it to evade host defenses. The proteins necessary for expression of the capsule...
Seidman, Michael M., Garon, Claude F., Salzman, Norman P.
SV40 replicating chromosomes were extracted from infected cells using a detergent free extraction method. This procedure also extracts 2 forms of the non-replicating chromosome, one of which...
Identification of 11 pH-Regulated Genes in Borrelia burgdorferi Localizing to Linear Plasmids
Carroll, James A., Cordova, Rebecca M., Garon, Claude F.
When Borrelia burgdorferi is transmitted from the tick vector to the mammalian host, the bacterium experiences alterations in its environment, such as changes in temperature and pH. Previously, we...
Effects of Environmental pH on Membrane Proteins in Borrelia burgdorferi
Carroll, James A., Garon, Claude F., Schwan, Tom G.
Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease, alternates between the microenvironments of the tick vector, Ixodes scapularis, and a mammalian host. The environmental conditions the...
DNA Is Packaged within Membrane-Derived Vesicles of Gram-Negative but Not Gram-Positive Bacteria
Dorward, David W., Garon, Claude F.
Recently, DNA packaged within nuclease-resistant membrane vesicles of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Borrelia burgdorferi was described. This study assayed 18 species of gram-negative and gram-positive...
Influence of the Lactose Plasmid on the Metabolism of Galactose by Streptococcus lactis
LeBlanc, Donald J., Crow, Vaughan L., Lee, Linda N., Garon, Claude F.
Streptococcus lactis strain DR1251 was capable of growth on lactose and galactose with generation times, at 30°C, of 42 and 52 min, respectively. Phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase...
Origin and Direction of Simian Virus 40 Deoxyribonucleic Acid Replication
Fareed, George C., Garon, Claude F., Salzman, Norman P.
Double-branched, circular, replicating deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules of simian virus 40 (SV40) have been cleaved by the R1 restriction endonuclease from Escherichia coli. This enzyme...
A Unique Form of Terminal Redundancy in Adenovirus DNA Molecules
Garon, Claude F., Berry, Karen W., Rose, James A.
A unique form of terminal redundancy has been observed in DNA molecules extracted from several human adenovirus serotypes. Electron microscopic studies reveal that single-stranded circular molecules...
Koczot, Frank J., Carter, Barrie J., Garon, Claude F., Rose, James A.
At least 70% of plus or minus strands of adenovirus-associated virus DNA contain self-complementary sequences at or near their termini. Self-annealing of these sequences generates circular molecules...
