ABC transporters: bacterial exporters.
The ABC transporters (also called traffic ATPases) make up a large superfamily of proteins which share a common function and a common ATP-binding domain. ABC transporters are classified into three major groups: bacterial importers (the periplasmic permeases), eukaryotic transporters, and bacterial exporters. We present a comprehensive review of the bacterial ABC exporter group, which currently ...
متن کاملInfection control in dermatology practice
Department of Microbiology, Queen Mary Hospital, 102 Pokfulam Road, Pokfulam, Hong Kong Infection control is an often neglected topic until the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003, when eight healthcare workers succumbed as a result of community and nosocomial outbreaks. This alerted all healthcare workers to comply with infection control practices in both the in-patien...
متن کاملEpigenetic Modifications of Host Genes Induced by Bacterial Infection
Introduction: Epigenetic mechanisms regulate expression of the genome to generate various cell types during development or coordinate cellular responses to external stimulus. While epigenetics is of fundamental importance in eukaryotes, it plays a different role in bacteria. This article uncovers the most important recent data on how bacteria can alter epigenetic marks and can also contribute t...
متن کاملCost Analysis of Selected Patient Categories within a Dermatology Department Using an ABC Approach
BACKGROUND Present trends in hospital management are facilitating the utilization of more accurate costing methods, which potentially results in superior cost-related information and improved managerial decision-making. However, the Activity-Based Costing method (ABC), which was designed for cost allocation purposes in the 1980s, is not widely used by healthcare organizations. This study analyz...
متن کاملStructure and Function of the Bacterial Heterodimeric ABC Transporter CydDC
In Escherichia coli, the biogenesis of both cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidases and periplasmic cytochromes requires the ATP-binding cassette-type cysteine/GSH transporter, CydDC. Recombinant CydDC was purified as a heterodimer and found to be an active ATPase both in soluble form with detergent and when reconstituted into a lipid environment. Two-dimensional crystals of CydDC were analyzed by e...
