Contributions of Listeria monocytogenes sigmaB and PrfA to expression of virulence and stress response genes during extra- and intracellular growth.
Listeria monocytogenes sigmaB and PrfA are pleiotropic regulators of stress response and virulence gene expression. Quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to measure transcript levels of sigmaB- and PrfA-dependent genes in exponential-phase L. monocytogenes wild-type and DeltasigB strains as well as in bacteria exposed to environmental stresses (0.3 M NaCl or growth to stationary phase) or pres...
متن کاملListeria monocytogenes B Modulates PrfA-Mediated Virulence Factor Expression †
Listeria monocytogenes B and positive regulatory factor A (PrfA) are pleiotropic transcriptional regulators that coregulate a subset of virulence genes. A positive regulatory role for B in prfA transcription has been well established; therefore, observations of increased virulence gene expression and hemolytic activity in a sigB strain initially appeared paradoxical. To test the hypothesis that...
متن کاملSigma B contributes to PrfA-mediated virulence in Listeria monocytogenes.
Transcription of the Listeria monocytogenes positive regulatory factor A protein (PrfA) is initiated from either of two promoters immediately upstream of prfA (prfAp(1) and prfAp(2)) or from the upstream plcA promoter. We demonstrate that prfAp(2) is a functional sigma(B)-dependent promoter and that a sigB deletion mutation affects the virulence phenotype of L. monocytogenes. Thus, the alternat...

آب حاصل از بارش منبع تأمین نیازهای بی شمار جانداران به ویژه انسان است و هرگونه کاهش در کم و کیف آن مستقیماً حیات موجودات زنده را تحت تأثیر منفی قرار می دهد. نوسان سال به سال بارش از ویژگی های اساسی و بسیار مهم بارش های سالانه ایران محسوب می شود که آثار زیان بار آن در تمام عرصه های اقتصادی، اجتماعی و حتی سیاسی- امنیتی به نحوی منعکس می شود. چون میزان آب ناشی از بارش یکی از مولفه های اصلی برنامه ...
