cAMP-dependent SOS induction and mutagenesis in resting bacterial populations.
The inducible SOS system increases the survival of bacteria exposed to DNA-damaging agents by increasing the capacity of error-free and error-prone DNA repair systems. The inducible mutator effect is expected to contribute to the adaptation of bacterial populations to these adverse life conditions by increasing their genetic variability. The evolutionary impact of the SOS system would be even g...
متن کاملInduction of SOS functions by alkaline intracellular pH in Escherichia coli.
Alkalinization of intracellular pH (pHi) causes an increase in UV resistance in wild-type and pH-sensitive mutant (DZ3) cells of Escherichia coli. Utilizing cells transformed with a plasmid (pA7) which bears the uvrA promoter fused to galK galactokinase structural gene, it was shown that alkaline pHi leads to an increase in the specific activity of galactokinase. This effect was not displayed i...
متن کاملInduction of SOS functions in Escherichia coli and biosynthesis of nitrosamine in rabbits by nitrogen dioxide.
Nitrogen dioxide induced SOS functions in Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli K-12 and was mutagenic in Escherichia coli WP2. When a rabbit was administered aminopyrine intravenously and administered nitrogen dioxide by inhalation, N-nitrosodimethylamine was detected in its blood. Analysis was conducted with 15N-nitrosodimethylamine as an internal standard by a combination of capillary ...
متن کاملSOS induction by stabilized topoisomerase IA cleavage complex occurs via the RecBCD pathway.
Accumulation of mutant topoisomerase I cleavage complex can lead to SOS induction and cell death in Escherichia coli. The single-stranded break associated with mutant topoisomerase I cleavage complex is converted to double-stranded break, which then is processed by the RecBCD pathway, followed by association of RecA with the single-stranded DNA.
متن کاملEvidence for Induction of Integron-Based Antibiotic Resistance by the SOS Response in a Clinical Setting
Bacterial resistance to β-lactams may rely on acquired β-lactamases encoded by class 1 integron-borne genes. Rearrangement of integron cassette arrays is mediated by the integrase IntI1. It has been previously established that integrase expression can be activated by the SOS response in vitro, leading to speculation that this is an important clinical mechanism of acquiring resistance. Here we r...
