Human targets of Pseudomonas aeruginosa pyocyanin.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces copious amounts of the redoxactive tricyclic compound pyocyanin that kills competing microbes and mammalian cells, especially during cystic fibrosis lung infection. Cross-phylum susceptibility to pyocyanin suggests the existence of evolutionarily conserved physiological targets. We screened a Saccharomyces cerevisiae deletion library to identify presumptive pyocy...
متن کاملUp-regulating pyocyanin production by amino acid addition for early electrochemical identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
This work focuses on developing a faster method for electrochemically detecting a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection through the addition of amino acids to cell culture samples. We performed square-wave voltammetry measurements of pyocyanin produced by P. aeruginosa using commercially available carbon-based electrodes connected to a Ag/AgCl reference. The electrochemical response resulting from t...
متن کاملStandardized chemical synthesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa pyocyanin
Preparation of the toxin pyocyanin from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an exacting procedure. Pyocyanin is expensive to commercially purchase. The sellers do not give out the extraction procedure. Classically, pyocyanin preparation involves complicated multi-step P. aeruginosa culturing and solvent transfer extractions. The chemical synthesis first used (1979) has not been adequately d...
متن کاملAdvancement in electrochemical DNA-biosensors for GMOs detection: A review
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are plants or animals whose genetic make-up has been transformed by recombinant DNA technology, which has new features such as resistance to herbicides, virus and insect. Recently, genetic modification of food products has increased in order to reduce world poverty and hunger and increase food production However, the impact of GMOs on the human health is a ...
متن کاملPyocyanin degradation by a tautomerizing demethylase inhibits Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms.
The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces colorful redox-active metabolites called phenazines, which underpin biofilm development, virulence, and clinical outcomes. Although phenazines exist in many forms, the best studied is pyocyanin. Here, we describe pyocyanin demethylase (PodA), a hitherto uncharacterized protein that oxidizes the pyocyanin methyl group to formaldehyde and...
