Channel formation by CarO, the carbapenem resistance-associated outer membrane protein of Acinetobacter baumannii.
It has been recently shown that resistance to both imipenem and meropenem in multidrug-resistant clinical strains of Acinetobacter baumannii is associated with the loss of a heat-modifiable 25/29-kDa outer membrane protein, called CarO. This study aimed to investigate the channel-forming properties of CarO. Mass spectrometry analyses of this protein band detected another 25-kDa protein (called ...
متن کاملProtein kinase D1 is essential for contraction-induced glucose uptake but is not involved in fatty acid uptake into cardiomyocytes.
Increased contraction enhances substrate uptake into cardiomyocytes via translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 and the long chain fatty acid (LCFA) transporter CD36 from intracellular stores to the sarcolemma. Additionally, contraction activates the signaling enzymes AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and protein kinase D1 (PKD1). Although AMPK has been implicated in contraction-induce...
متن کاملAntibiotic uptake through membrane channels: role of Providencia stuartii OmpPst1 porin in carbapenem resistance.
The role of major porin OmpPst1 of Providencia stuartii in antibiotic susceptibility for two carbapenems is investigated by combining high-resolution conductance measurements, liposome swelling, and microbiological assays. Reconstitution of a single OmpPst1 into a planar lipid bilayer and measuring the ion current, in the presence of imipenem, revealed a concentration-dependent decrease in cond...
متن کاملCarbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii from Serbia: Revision of CarO Classification
Carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii present a significant therapeutic challenge for the treatment of nosocomial infections in many European countries. Although it is known that the gradient of A. baumannii prevalence increases from northern to southern Europe, this study provides the first data from Serbia. Twenty-eight carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii clinical isolates were collected at a Serbi...
متن کاملThe Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rheb G-protein is involved in regulating canavanine resistance and arginine uptake.
The new member of the Ras superfamily of G-proteins, Rheb, has been identified in rat and human, but its function has not been defined. We report here the identification of Rheb homologues in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ScRheb) as well as in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Drosophila melanogaster, zebrafish, and Ciona intestinalis. These proteins define a new class of G-proteins base...
