Increased bile resistance in Salmonella enterica mutants lacking Prc periplasmic protease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Prc is a periplasmic protease involved in processing of penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). Lack of Prc suppresses bile sensitivity in Dam-, Wec-, PhoP-, DamX-, and SeqA- mutants of Salmonella enterica, and increases bile resistance in the wild type. Changes in the activity of penicillin binding proteins PBP3, PBP4, PBP5/6 and PBP7 are detected in a Prc- background, suggesting that peptidoglycan remodeling might contribute to bile resistance.

Repair of DNA damage induced by bile salts in Salmonella enterica.
Exposure of Salmonella enterica to sodium cholate, sodium deoxycholate, sodium chenodeoxycholate, sodium glycocholate, sodium taurocholate, or sodium glycochenodeoxycholate induces the SOS response, indicating that the DNA-damaging activity of bile resides in bile salts. Bile increases the frequency of GC --> AT transitions and induces the expression of genes belonging to the OxyR and SoxRS reg...
متن کاملLow-molecular-mass penicillin binding protein 6b (DacD) is required for efficient GOB-18 metallo-β-lactamase biogenesis in Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli.
Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are Zn(2+)-containing secretory enzymes of clinical relevance, whose final folding and metal ion assembly steps in Gram-negative bacteria occur after secretion of the apo form to the periplasmic space. In the search of periplasmic factors assisting MBL biogenesis, we found that dacD null (ΔdacD) mutants of Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli expressing the pre-G...
متن کاملSalmonella enterica serovar typhimurium resistance to bile: identification and characterization of the tolQRA cluster.
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is resistant to the action of bile salts, and resistance to bile is enhanced in strains in which the PhoP-PhoQ (PhoPQ) two-component regulatory system has been activated. To identify genes necessary for bile resistance, MudJ transposon mutagenesis was performed on a strain containing a phoP mutation that results in constitutive expression of PhoP-activate...
متن کاملThe GATC-binding protein SeqA is required for bile resistance and virulence in Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium.
Disruption of the seqA gene of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium causes defects similar to those described in E. coli: filament formation, aberrant nucleoid segregation, induction of the SOS response, envelope instability, and increased sensitivity to membrane-damaging agents. Differences between SeqA(-) mutants of E. coli and S. enterica, however, are found. SeqA(-) mutants of S. enteric...
متن کاملRoles of the outer membrane protein AsmA of Salmonella enterica in the control of marRAB expression and invasion of epithelial cells.
A genetic screen for suppressors of bile sensitivity in DNA adenine methylase (dam) mutants of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium yielded insertions in an uncharacterized locus homologous to the Escherichia coli asmA gene. Disruption of asmA suppressed bile sensitivity also in phoP and wec mutants of S. enterica and increased the MIC of sodium deoxycholate for the parental strain ATCC 1402...
