Extracellular DNA shields against aminoglycosides in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms.
Within recent years, it has been established that extracellular DNA is a key constituent of the matrix of microbial biofilms. In addition, it has recently been demonstrated that DNA binds positively charged antimicrobials such as aminoglycosides and antimicrobial peptides. In the present study, we provide evidence that extracellular DNA shields against aminoglycosides in Pseudomonas aeruginosa ...
متن کاملInvolvement of an active efflux system in the natural resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to aminoglycosides.
A mutant, named 11B, hypersusceptible to aminoglycosides, tetracycline, and erythromycin was isolated after Tn501 insertion mutagenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Cloning and sequencing experiments showed that 11B was deficient in an, at that time, unknown active efflux system that contains homologs of MexAB. This locus also contained a putative regulatory gene, mexZ, transcribed divergent...
متن کاملRole of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PhoP-phoQ in resistance to antimicrobial cationic peptides and aminoglycosides.
Resistance to the polycationic antibiotic polymyxin B and expression of the outer-membrane protein OprH in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa both involve the PhoP-PhoQ two-component regulatory system. The genes for this system form an operon with oprH, oprH-phoP-phoQ, that responds to Mg(2+) starvation and PhoP levels. In this study, the Mg(2+)-regulated promoter for this operon...
متن کاملMexXY-OprM efflux pump is necessary for a adaptive resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to aminoglycosides.
Exposure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to aminoglycosides frequently selects for recalcitrant subpopulations exhibiting an unstable, "adaptive" resistance to these antibiotics. In this study, we investigated the implication in the phenomenon of MexXY-OprM, an active efflux system known to export aminoglycosides in P. aeruginosa. Immunoblotting experiments demonstrated that the transporter MexY, but...
