Is Escherichia coli growing in glucose-limited chemostat culture able to utilize other sugars without lag?
It was investigated whether Escherichia coli cultured in a glucose-limited chemostat is able to grow with a series of sugars whose utilization is normally repressed during batch growth with glucose. Cells growing at dilution rates of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.6h-1 were able to immediately utilize and grow with fructose, mannose, maltose and ribose. Galactose was transported instantaneously but growth star...
متن کاملMetabolic regulation in glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Escherichia coli.
Glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Escherichia coli, growing at dilution rates above 0.3/hr, continue to grow at the restricted rate after removal of glucose restriction. In a glycogenless strain, the specific rates of increase of mass, protein, and ribonucleic acid (RNA) were equal before and after supplementation with 0.05% glucose and did not increase detectably until after 30 to 60 min. ...
متن کاملHuman sepsis-associated Escherichia coli (SEPEC) is able to adhere to and invade kidney epithelial cells in culture
The adhesins of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli are essential for mediating direct interactions between the microbes and the host cell surfaces that they infect. Using fluorescence microscopy and gentamycin protection assays, we observed that 49 sepsis-associated E. coli (SEPEC) strains isolated from human adults adhered to and invaded Vero cells in the presence of D-mannose (100%)....
متن کاملChemotaxis toward sugars in Escherichia coli.
Using a quantitative assay for measuring chemotaxis, we tested a variety of sugars and sugar derivatives for their ability to attract Escherichia coli bacteria. The most effective attractants, i.e., those that have thresholds near 10(-5) M or below, are N-acetyl-d-glucosamine, 6-deoxy-d-glucose, d-fructose, d-fucose, 1-d-glycerol-beta-d-galactoside, galactitol, d-galactose, d-glucosamine, d-glu...
متن کاملPhysiological and proteomic analysis of Escherichia coli iron-limited chemostat growth.
Iron bioavailability is a major limiter of bacterial growth in mammalian host tissue and thus represents an important area of study. Escherichia coli K-12 metabolism was studied at four levels of iron limitation in chemostats using physiological and proteomic analyses. The data documented an E. coli acclimation gradient where progressively more severe iron scarcity resulted in a larger percenta...
