Regulation system for protease production in Vibrio vulnificus.
Vibrio vulnificus is a causative agent of serious food-borne diseases in humans related to consumption of raw seafoods. This human pathogen secretes a metalloprotease (VVP) that evokes enhancement of the vascular permeability and disruption of the capillaries. Production of microbial proteases is generally induced at early stationary phase of its growth. This cell density dependent regulation o...
متن کاملIron-mediated regulation of metalloprotease VvpE production in Vibrio vulnificus.
In Vibrio vulnificus, the production of metalloprotease VvpE is controlled by Crp (cAMP-receptor protein) and SmcR (a quorum sensing regulator) at the transcription level, and by PilD-mediated type II general secretion system (TTGSS) at the extracellular secretion level. Iron is known to stimulate VvpE production but the related mechanisms remain unidentified. Iron stimulated vvpE transcription...
متن کاملRegulation of protease production in Clostridium sporogenes.
The physiological and nutritional factors that regulate protease synthesis in Clostridium sporogenes C25 were studied in batch and continuous cultures. Formation of extracellular proteases occurred at the end of active growth and during the stationary phase in batch cultures. Protease production was inversely related to growth rate in glucose-excess and glucose-limited chemostats over the range...
متن کاملProduction and partial characterization of an elastolytic protease of Vibrio vulnificus.
Conditions are described for the production of large amounts of an extracellular elastolytic protease by Vibrio vulnificus. The yield of enzyme was maximal during the late exponential growth phase and was stable during the stationary growth phase in a medium composed of 2% Proteose Peptone and 1.5% NaCl. The protease has a molecular weight of ca. 50,500 (estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-poly...
متن کاملRegulation of extracellular protease production in Bacillus cereus.
Both sporulation and protease production can be inhibited by growing Bacillus cereus T in a medium containing a high concentration of a mixture of amino acids. Mutants selected for the ability to sporulate in this inhibitory medium were found to produce high levels of protease in the normal and inhibitory media. Comparison of the mutant and wild-type enzymes by gel electrophoresis and heat inac...
