Roles of thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH) and TDH-related hemolysin (TRH) in Vibrio parahaemolyticus
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the leading cause of seafood borne bacterial gastroenteritis in the world, often associated with the consumption of raw or undercooked seafood. However, not all strains of V. parahaemolyticus are pathogenic. The thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH) or TDH-related hemolysin (TRH) encoded by tdh and trh genes, respectively, are considered major virulence factors in V. pa...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of thermostable direct hemolysin of Vibrio parahaemolyticus.
A thermostable direct hemolysin was purified from culture filtrates of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The purified hemolysin gave one precipitation line with the antihemolysin antiserum on agar-gel diffusion test and a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The hemolysin was not inactivated by heating at 70 to 100 C for 10 min. The hemolytic activity was not enhanced by the addition of le...
متن کامل[Cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of Vibrio parahaemolyticus thermostable direct hemolysin and thermolabile hemolysin genes].
Two hemolysin genes of Vibrio parahaemolyticus WP1, a thermostable direct (TSD) hemolysin gene and a thermolabile hemolysin gene, were cloned into the pBR322 vector in Escherichia coli K-12 C600. A large amount of the TSD hemolysin produced in E. coli K-12 accumulated in the periplasmic space. The TSD hemolysin gene was localized on a 0.9-kilobase HindIII-BamHI fragment by identifying qualitati...
متن کاملSequence variation in the thermostable direct hemolysin-related hemolysin (trh) gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus.
Our previous molecular epidemiologic study with gene probes (H. Shirai, H. Ito, T. Hirayama, Y. Nakamoto, N. Nakabayashi, K. Kumagai, Y. Takeda, and M. Nishibuchi, Infect. Immun. 58:3568-3573, 1990) demonstrated that the gene (trh) encoding a thermostable direct hemolysin-related hemolysin was strongly associated with clinical strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Strain-to-strain variation in th...
متن کاملCell‐free production of pore forming toxins: Functional analysis of thermostable direct hemolysin from Vibrio parahaemolyticus
The pore forming characteristic of TDH1 and TDH2 variants of thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH), a major toxin involved in the pathogenesis of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, was studied on a planar lipid bilayer painted over individual picoliter cavities containing microelectrodes assembled in a multiarray. Both proteins formed pores upon insertion into the lipid bilayer which was shown as a shift i...
