[Structure of bacterial complexes of the river Protva flood-plains].

The synecological analysis of bacterial communities from the Protva River flood-plain biogeocenosis showed that all of the horizons contain spirilla, which are typical hydrobionts, and pigmented coryneform bacteria associated with the herbaceous plants of the flood-plain meadows. The alluvial meadow soils of the inundated regions of the floodplain differed from the unflooded regions of the flood-plain in that they had a more diverse bacterial population continuously distributed over the soil profile.

[Molecular basis of ion selectivity based on crystalline structure of bacterial channels].

UNLABELLED: The principles of ionic selectivity of the two crystallised bacterial ion channels are described. These channels are: the potassium channel KcsA, whose amino-acid sequence is homologous to the eukaryotic voltage--dependent potassium channels and the chloride channel EcClC that is a prokaryotic member of the ClC family of chloride channels. IN CONCLUSION: although the overall molecular architecture of KcsA is different from that of EcClC, the selectivity filters in both cases show similarities. They both utilise helix dipoles organised within the channel molecule in such a fashion to produce electrostatically favourable environment for anions (in the case of EcClC) or cations (in the case of KcsA).

Colicins and bacterial membranes: structures and functions. II. Studies on reconstituted homologous and hybrid membranes prepared from cytoplasmic membranes of untreated and colicin K-treated bacteria.

Cytoplasmic membranes of Escherichia coli K12 C600 treated and not treated with colicin K were dissociated into unsolubilized and solubilized fractions. Neither fraction catalyzed ATP-linked transhydrogenase activity. Mixtures of unsolubilized fractions of the untreated bacteria with solubilized fractions of either the treated or untreated bacteria yielded reconstituted membranes with restored ATP-linked transhydrogenase activity. The level of the activity was similar to that of the undissociated membranes of untreated bacteria. The membranes which were reconstituted from unsolubilized fractions of the treated bacteria and the solubilized fraction of the treated or the untreated bacteria showed impairment of activity. The impairment is not due to an inability to bind ATPase of the soluble fraction or to an incorrect binding of the ATPase. The impaired, reconstituted membranes showed striking decreases in the relative amounts of three proteins with apparent molecular weights of 122,000, 73,000, and 62,000. The affected proteins were found to be components of the unsolubilized membrane fraction. It is, thus, concluded that the impaired activity is due to the defective nature of the unsolubilized membrane fraction of colicin-treated cells.

[Effect of a modification of the medium on the structure of bacterial cells based on electron microscopy data].

Electron microscopy was used to study the interactions between microorganisms and the culture medium in the presence of modifying agents. Temperature-dependent changes in the intensity of water-glycerin exchange between the cells and the medium are demonstrated, which is of interest for the optimization of the conditions of using protectors, as well as for the study of the permeability of cell membranes.
