Abstract:

Bacillus subtilis growing at 37° C synthesizes, almost exclusively, saturated fatty acids. However, when a culture growing at 37°C is transferred to 20°C, the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids is induced. The addition of the DNA gyrase inhibitor novobiocin specifically prevented the induction of unsaturated fatty acid synthesis at 20° C. Furthermore, it was determined that plasmid DNA isolated from cells growing at 20°C was significantly more negatively supercoiled than the equivalent DNA isolated from cells growing at 37°C. The overall results agree with the hypothesis that an increase in DNA supercoiling associated with a temperature downshift could regulate the unsaturated fatty acids synthesis in B. subtilis.
