Modification of Ras in eukaryotic cells by Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S.
Genetic and functional data suggest that Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S (ExoS), an ADP-ribosyltransferase, is translocated into eukaryotic cells by a bacterial type III secretory mechanism activated by contact between bacteria and host cells. Although purified ExoS is not toxic to eukaryotic cells, ExoS-producing bacteria cause reduced proliferation and viability, possibly mediated by bacte...
متن کاملPurification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces two distinct ADP-ribosyl transferases, exotoxin A and exoenzyme S, which differ in a number of properties including substrate specificity. Exoenzyme S was purified from culture supernatants of P. aeruginosa DG1. The procedure for purification consists of four major steps: ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, acetone prec...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S is an adhesion.
Exoenzyme S from Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been studied as an adhesion for glycosphingolipids and buccal cells. Binding of exoenzyme S to gangliotriosylceramide (GalNAc beta 1-4Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer), gangliotetraosylceramide (Gal beta 1-3 GalNAcT beta 1-4 Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer), and lactosylceramide (Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer) separated on thin-layer chromatograms was observed. ...
متن کاملInterruption of multiple cellular processes in HT-29 epithelial cells by Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S.
Exoenzyme S (ExoS), an ADP-ribosylating enzyme produced by the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, is directly translocated into eukaryotic cells by bacterial contact. Within the cell, ExoS ADP-ribosylates the cell signaling protein Ras and causes inhibition of DNA synthesis and alterations in cytoskeletal structure. To further understand the interrelationship of the different cellul...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa exoenzyme S stimulates murine lymphocyte proliferation in vitro.
The exuberant immunoinflammatory response that is associated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is the major source of the morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Previous studies have established that an exoproduct of P. aeruginosa (exoenzyme S) is a mitogen for human T lymphocytes and activates a larger percentage of T cells than most superantigens, which may contribute t...
