Activities of Alkyl Hydroperoxide Reductase Subunits C1 and C2 of Vibrio parahaemolyticus against Different Peroxides.
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C gene (ahpC) functions were characterized in Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a commonly occurring marine food-borne enteropathogenic bacterium. Two ahpC genes, ahpC1 (VPA1683) and ahpC2 (VP0580), encoded putative two-cysteine peroxiredoxins, which are highly similar to the homologous proteins of Vibrio vulnificus. The responses of deletion mutants of ahpC genes t...
متن کاملRoles of alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C (AhpC) in viable but nonculturable Vibrio parahaemolyticus.
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C (AhpC) is the catalytic subunit responsible for the detoxification of reactive oxygen species that form in bacterial cells or are derived from the host; thus, AhpC facilitates the survival of pathogenic bacteria under environmental stresses or during infection. This study investigates the role of AhpC in the induction and maintenance of a viable but noncu...
متن کاملAn iron-regulated alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (AhpC) confers aerotolerance and oxidative stress resistance to the microaerophilic pathogen Campylobacter jejuni.
Microaerophiles like Campylobacter jejuni must resist oxidative stresses during transmission or infection. Growth of C. jejuni 81116 under iron limitation greatly increased the expression of two polypeptides of 26 and 55 kDa. The identification of these proteins by N-terminal amino acid sequencing showed both to be involved in the defense against oxidative stress. The 55-kDa polypeptide was ide...
متن کاملChemical Composition and Antimicrobial Effect of Five Essential Oils on Pathogenic and Non-Pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus
Background and Objectives: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the causative agent of gastroenteritis due to consumption of contaminated seafood. The aim of the present study was to determine the chemical composition of Essential Oils (EOs) of five plants (Artemisia absinthium, Zataria multiflora Boiss., Pulicaria gnaphalodes, Trachyspermum ammi and Cuminum cyminum) and to evaluate their antimicrobial a...
متن کاملEvaluation of antibacterial activity of Pseudomonas species isolated from Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei Boone, 1931) against pathogenic Vibrio spp.
In this research antibacterial activity of Pseudomonas isolates derived from hepatopancreas of Litopenaeus vannamei were evaluated against pathogenic Vibrio spp. Shrimp samples collected from 9 different ponds in Tiab region- Hormozgan province. Hepatopancreas samples of collected shrimps were inoculated in three different isolation media. Pseudomonas Isolation Agar medium revealed highest yiel...
