Outer membrane protein shifts in biocide-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
Benzisothiazolone (BIT), N-methylisothiazolone (MIT) and 5-chloro-N-methylisothiazolone (CMIT) are highly effective biocidal agents and are used as preservatives in a variety of cosmetic preparations. The isothiazolones have proven efficacy against many fungal and bacterial species including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, some species are beginning to exhibit resistance towards this group of ...
متن کاملPseudomonas 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 کاملOuter Membrane Protein D Gene in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and its Role in Antibiotic Resistance
Background & Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of nosocomial infection. OprD protein is a specific protein regulating the uptake of carbapenem antibiotic. Loss of OprD is the main mechanism of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa resistance to carbapenem. In this study, the presence of OprD gene is investigated in isolated Pseudomonas Aeruginosa in burn patients of Ghotboddin hospital in S...
متن کاملLinker-insertion mutagenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane protein OprF.
The oprF gene, expressing Pseudomonas aeruginosa major outer membrane protein OprF, was subjected to semi-random linker mutagenesis by insertion of a 1.3 kb Hincll kanamycin-resistance fragment from plasmid pUC4KAPA into multiple blunt-ended restriction sites in the oprF gene. The kanamycin-resistance gene was then removed by Pstl digestion, which left a 12 nucleotide pair linker residue. Nine ...
