Abstract

A Synechocytis 6714 mutant resistant to the phenol-type herbicide ioxynil was isolated and characterized. Sensitivity to DCMU and atrazine was tf measured in whole cells and isolated thylakoids. The mutant presents the same sensitivity to atrazine as the wild type and a slightly increased sensitivity to DCMU. A point mutation has been found at codon 266 in the psbAI coding locus (AAC to ACC) resulting in an amino acid change from asparagine to threonine in the D1 protein.

Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.
