چکیده

Increased thermotolerance of Listeria monocytogenes induced by exposure to a high NaCl concentration or a sublethal heat shock was concurrent with increased thermal stability of the 30S ribosomal subunit as measured by differential scanning calorimetry. It is proposed that protection of the 30S subunit is a critical mechanism for increased thermotolerance.

Adaptive Response of Listeria monocytogenes to Heat, Salinity and Low pH, after Habituation on Cherry Tomatoes and Lettuce Leaves

Pathogens found on fresh produce may encounter low temperatures, high acidity and limited nutrient availability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of habituation of Listeria monocytogenes on cherry tomatoes or lettuce leaves on its subsequent response to inhibitory levels of acid, osmotic and heat stress. Habituation was performed by inoculating lettuce coupons, whole cherry toma...

Role of ctc from Listeria monocytogenes in osmotolerance.

Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen with the ability to grow under conditions of high osmolarity. In a previous study, we reported the identification of 12 proteins showing high induction after salt stress. One of these proteins is highly similar to the general stress protein Ctc of Bacillus subtilis. In this study, induction of Ctc after salt stress was confirmed at the transcripti...

Expression of cellular antigens of Listeria monocytogenes that react with monoclonal antibodies C11E9 and EM-7G1 under acid-, salt- or temperature-induced stress environments.

AIMS To study the expression of cellular antigens of Listeria monocytogenes that react with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) C11E9 and EM-7G1 under acid-, salt- or temperature-induced stress environments. METHODS AND RESULTS The reaction patterns of antibodies to L. monocytogenes held in stressful environments for a short duration (3 h) or grown for extended periods (16-72 h) were investigated. D...

Listeria Monocytogenes La111 and Klebsiella Pneumoniae KCTC 2242: Shine-Dalgarno Sequences

Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious infection and recently, relapse of listeriosis has been reported in leukemia and colorectal cancer, and the patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae are at increased risk of colorectal cancer. Translation initiation codon recognition is basically mediated by Shine-Dalgarno (SD) and the anti-SD sequences at the small ribosomal RNA (ssu rRNA). In this research,...

Capillary Electrophoresis Separation of Protein Composition of γ-Irradiated Food Pathogens Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus

BACKGROUND A capillary electrophoresis method using UV detection was developed to analyse protein composition of the lysates of two foodborne pathogens, Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus which were previously treated at different irradiation doses. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Bacterial samples were γ-irradiated at different doses to produce damage cells, to kill cells an...
