Sodium chloride induces an NhaA/NhaR-independent acid sensitivity at neutral external pH in Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli previously grown in low-salt broth, pH 7.0, produced organisms which were markedly more acid sensitive when subsequently cultured in the same broth with 200 mM or more salt (NaCl) added. Induction of acid sensitivity occurred rapidly at both 37 and 30 degrees C, with a substantial effect within 15 min. Sensitization was partially inhibited by chloramphenicol and tetracycline an...
متن کاملAlkaline pH homeostasis in bacteria: new insights.
The capacity of bacteria to survive and grow at alkaline pH values is of widespread importance in the epidemiology of pathogenic bacteria, in remediation and industrial settings, as well as in marine, plant-associated and extremely alkaline ecological niches. Alkali-tolerance and alkaliphily, in turn, strongly depend upon mechanisms for alkaline pH homeostasis, as shown in pH shift experiments ...
متن کاملShigella and Escherichia coli strategies for survival at low pH.
INTRODUCTION A fascinating aspect of Shigella pathogenesis is the small inoculum required to cause shigellosis. DuPont et. al. (5) summarized data from volunteer studies in which subjects were administered Shigella species in milk. The results of these studies showed that 500 S. flexneri, S. dysenteriae, or S. sonnei were sufficient to cause shigellosis and in some cases ingestion of as few as ...
متن کاملMechanisms of somatosensory neuronal sensitivity to alkaline pH.
Life for most species is best in a very narrow range of pH. Departures of tissue pH from this narrow range are guarded against by various neural and physiological defense mechanisms. In the past few years, we have gained a much better understanding of what the sensory bases of the defenses against acid insults are. Specifically, several ion channels (TRPV1, Caterina et al., 1997; ASIC3, Waldman...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
