Unsuspected pyocyanin effect in yeast under anaerobiosis
The blue-green phenazine, Pyocyanin (PYO), is a well-known virulence factor produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, notably during cystic fibrosis lung infections. It is toxic to both eukaryotic and bacterial cells and several mechanisms, including the induction of oxidative stress, have been postulated. However, the mechanism of PYO toxicity under the physiological conditions of oxygen limitation ...
متن کاملThe Reversion of Catalase during Growth of Yeast in Anaerobiosis
Growth of originally aerobic bakers' yeast under conditions of anaerobiosis caused a decrease in the total specific catalatic activity (patent plus cryptic) of one-half per generation. It is concluded that reversion of catalase was a dilution, rather than a destruction, of the intracellular enzyme. However, the specific patent (whole cell) catalase activity remained constant for one or more gen...
متن کاملEffect of anaerobiosis on staphylococcal nuclease production.
Five strains of Staphylococcus aureus were examined quantitatively for the production of nuclease under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Hydrolysis of deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid was detected by measuring the release of acidsoluble nucleotides spectrophotometrically. We found that the enzyme was produced anaerobically, as well as aerobically, and that anaerobiosis had no effect ...
متن کاملEnergy metabolism and performance of Mytilus galloprovincialis under anaerobiosis
Intertidal individuals of Mytilus galloprovincialis were exposed to anaerobiosis in laboratory at 22°C and a set of biochemical metabolites and survival potential determined. Differences in survival potential between individuals emersed or kept in oxygen-free seawater were residual according to ST50 values (survival time, P≈0.05) but emersed individuals survived significantly longer when consid...
متن کاملAnaerobiosis induces complex changes in sterol esterification pattern in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is auxotrophic for ergosterol in the absence of oxygen. We showed that complex changes in esterification of exogenously supplied sterols were also induced by anaerobiosis. Utilization of oleic acid for sterol esterification was significantly impaired in anaerobic cells. Furthermore, anaerobic cells fed different sterols exhibited striking variation in esterificati...
