Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Growth and conversion to the mucoid phenotype by nonmucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was studied in a chemostat system under conditions designed to reflect those likely to be present during chronic infection in the lung in cystic fibrosis patients. Mucoid variants were consistently isolated during continuous culture in the presence of 0.3 M NaCl or 5 or 10% glycerol. Mucoid subpopulations wer...
متن کاملRed death in Caenorhabditis elegans caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
During host injury, Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be cued to express a lethal phenotype within the intestinal tract reservoir-a hostile, nutrient scarce environment depleted of inorganic phosphate. Here we determined if phosphate depletion activates a lethal phenotype in P. aeruginosa during intestinal colonization. To test this, we allowed Caenorhabditis elegans to feed on lawns of P. aeruginosa ...
متن کاملDetection of Neuraminidase Activity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Objective(s) Some properties of neuraminidase produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 growth in a defined medium (BHI) were examined and evaluated for its features. Materials and Methods The obtained supernatant enzyme of P. aeruginosa PAO1 cultures was used in a sensitive fluorometric assay by using 2'-(4-methylumbelliferyl) a-D-N acetylneuraminic acid as substrate. As hydrolyzing MUN with ...
متن کاملConserved-residue mutations in Wzy affect O-antigen polymerization and Wzz-mediated chain-length regulation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
O antigen (O-Ag) in many bacteria is synthesized via the Wzx/Wzy-dependent pathway in which Wzy polymerizes lipid-linked O-Ag subunits to modal lengths regulated by Wzz. Characterization of 83 site-directed mutants of Wzy from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 (WzyPa) in topologically-mapped periplasmic (PL) and cytoplasmic loops (CL) verified the functional importance of PL3 and PL5, with the former...
