چکیده

The responses of Pseudomonas putida KT2442 to various forms of nutrient starvation and stress conditions were examined by two-dimensional polyacrylamide electrophoresis. Carbon deprivation resulted in a temporal expression of two classes of starvation-induced proteins: one class was transiently expressed during the initial phase of starvation, and the second class was expressed throughout the entire starvation period. Proteins of the second class could be further subdivided into proteins induced specifically under conditions of carbon starvation, proteins also induced by conditions of stress created by elevated temperature and osmolarity, and finally proteins that were also induced by conditions of nitrogen as well as phosphate starvation. Addition of glucose to a carbon-starved culture led to initiation of a recovery phase. During this phase, repression of starvation-induced proteins as well as induction of a new class of transiently expressed proteins, referred to as maturation proteins, took place.

The Effect of Starvation Stress on the Protein Profiles in Flexibacter chinensis

Background: Analysis of many proteins produced during the transition into the stationary phase and under stress conditions (including starvation stress) demonstrated that a number of novel proteins were induced in common to each stress and could be the reason for cross-protection in bacterial cells. It is necessary to investigate the synthesis of these proteins during different stress condition...

Two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis Analysis of the Response of Pseudomonas putida KT2442 to 2-Chlorophenol.

The effects of exposure of Pseudomonas putida KT2442 to 2-chlorophenol as a model for the chemical stress response were examined by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Individual protein concentrations were determined at 45, 65, and 95 min following the addition of 2-chlorophenol at a concentration of 1.63 mM to exponentially growing cultures of P. putida KT2442 by silver staini...

A carbon starvation survival gene of Pseudomonas putida is regulated by sigma 54.

By using mini-Tn5 transposon mutagenesis, two mutants of Pseudomonas putida ATCC 12633 were isolated which showed a marked increase in their sensitivity to carbon starvation; these mutants are presumably affected in the Pex type of proteins that P. putida induces upon carbon starvation (M. Givskov, L. Eberl, and S. Molin, J. Bacteriol. 176:4816-4824, 1994). The affected genes in our mutants wer...

The G-protein FlhF has a role in polar flagellar placement and general stress response induction in Pseudomonas putida.

The flhF gene of Pseudomonas putida, which encodes a GTP-binding protein, is part of the flagellar-motility-chemotaxis operon. Its disruption leads to a random flagellar arrangement in the mutant (MK107) and loss of directional motility in contrast to the wild type, which has polar flagella. The return of a normal flhF allele restores polar flagella and normal motility to MK107; its overexpress...

Cell fasting: Cellular response and application of serum starvation

  Humans suffer transient or persistent starvation due to a lack of food intake, either because of fasting, voluntary dieting, or due to the scarcity of available food. At the cellular level it is possible to possess pathological starvation during ischemia and solid tumors. Blood provides many nutrients to our cells, and researchers provide these nutrients to cells in culture in the form of en...
