چکیده
A highly sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay has been developed for Pseudomonas aeruginosa alkaline protease. Production of alkaline protease was found to be strain variable and medium dependent.

Evaluation of the Phenotypic and Genotypic Effects of Satureja Khuzestanica Essence and Copper Nanocomplex on the Expression of Alkaline Protease Gene in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa by RT-PCR Method
Background & aim: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-negative bacillus and an opportunistic pathogen that causes high mortality in immunocompromised patients. The main antimicrobial activity of Satureja khuzestanica essence is due to carvacrol phenolic components. Nanomaterials can be a good choice because of low toxicity to fight pathogenic microbes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the e...
متن کاملPseudomonas keratitis: protease IV gene conservation, distribution, and production relative to virulence and other Pseudomonas proteases.
PURPOSE To determine the distribution of the protease IV gene, the production of this and other proteases by multiple strains of Pseudomonas, and the virulence of a mutant specifically deficient in protease IV. METHODS The protease IV gene was cloned, its sequence analyzed, and its chromosomal location determined by pulse-field gel electrophoresis. Three PCR reactions were used to detect the ...
متن کاملEffects of FP2 and a mercury resistance plasmid from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA103 on exoenzyme production.
Plasmids encoding mercury resistance carried by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1161 and PA103 were found to be involved in regulating the secretion of protease, phospholipase C, and alkaline phosphatase. Previously, mutations in Pseudomonas strains that caused pleiotropic effects on the production of extracellular enzymes were mapped to the bacterial chromosome. We show that pleiotropic changes in e...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa alkaline protease degrades human gamma interferon and inhibits its bioactivity.
This study was performed to determine the effect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) production by antigen-stimulated human T-cell clones. Crude bacterial filtrates prepared from certain strains of P. aeruginosa inhibited IFN-gamma production by T cells and reduced the antiviral activity of preformed IFN-gamma. Bacterial filtrates prepared from mutant strains that did not ...
متن کاملProduction of elastase and other exoproducts by environmental isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from environmental sources and bacteremic patients were compared for their levels of elastolytic activity. No significant differences were found. The incidence of production of toxin A, phospholipase C, alkaline protease, and elastase among the environmental strains was also as high as that previously reported for clinical isolates.
