The cell-bound hemolysin of Serratia marcescens contributes to uropathogenicity.
The contribution of the cell-bound hemolysin of Serratia marcescens to uropathogenicity was studied in an experimental urinary tract infection in rats. The strain carrying the Serratia hemolysin colonized the urinary tract more and lead to a stronger inflammatory response compared to the isogenic hemolysin negative strain.
متن کاملActivation of Serratia marcescens hemolysin through a conformational change.
For Serratia marcescens, secreted hemolysin/cytotoxin is not only secreted but also activated by an outer membrane protein. Excluding posttranslational processing by mass spectrometry, the conformation of active and inactive ShlA derivatives strongly differed in electrophoretic mobilities, gel permeation chromatography, sensitivity to trypsin, circular dichroism, and intrinsic fluorescence. We ...

15 صفحه اولIron regulation of Serratia marcescens hemolysin gene expression.
The hemolytic activity of Serratia marcescens was examined as a function of iron availability. Restriction of iron by the nonmetabolizable chelator 2,2'-dipyridyl or the iron-binding protein transferrin produced a marked increase in hemolytic activity. The hemolytic activity of S. marcescens is determined by two adjacent genes, 5'-shlB-shlA-3', where shlA encodes the hemolysin which requires th...
متن کاملA role for histone-like protein H1 (H-NS) in the regulation of hemolysin expression by Serratia marcescens.
The histone-like protein H1 (H-NS) is an abundant structural component of the bacterial nucleoid and influences many cellular processes including recombination, transcription and transposition. Mutations in the hns gene encoding H-NS are highly pleiotropic, affecting the expression of many unrelated genes. We have studied the role of H-NS on the regulation of hemolysin gene expression in Serrat...
