Bragg, P. D. (University of British Columbia, Vancouver, B.C., Canada), and W. J. Polglase. Inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation in Escherichia coli by dihydrostreptomycin. J. Bacteriol. 86:1236-1240. 1963.-Dihydrostreptomycin inhibited the oxidation of succinate in extracts of antibiotic-sensitive Escherichia coli. The inhibitable reaction required both the particulate and the supernatant fractions from sonic extracts which had been centrifuged at 100,000 x g. Dihydrostreptomycin was found to inhibit phosphorylation coupled with the oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). The inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation by dihydrostreptomycin appeared to precede the effect of the antibiotic on oxidation. The streptomycin antagonist, 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide, inhibited the oxidation of succinate and of NADH, but showed little effect on oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation was not affected by dihydrostreptomycin in strains of E. coli which were antibiotic-resistant or -dependent.

متن کاملEffect of carbon dioxide and aging on the dihydrostreptomycin inhibition of pyruvate fermentation in Escherichia coli.
Barkulis (1953) demonstrated that resting cells of a strain of Escherichia coli ferment pyruvate in bicarbonate buffer chiefly by way of the phosphoroclastic reaction and that pyruvate fermentation is strongly inhibited by low concentrations of dihydrostreptomycin. When this work was almost completed, Umbreit and Oginsky (1951) found that anaerobic pyruvate breakdown in their strains of E. coli...

Abstract Background and Objective: Urinary tract infection refers to the presence of microbial pathogens in the urinary tract and is one of the most common infections in outpatient and hospitalized patients. A wide variety of extra-intestinal infections in humans and animals are caused by the extracellular strains of Escherichia coli (EXPEC). Materials and methods: A total of 50 E. coli iso...
متن کاملTerramycin inhibition of gluconate oxidation by Escherichia coli.
The mode of action of "terramycin" (oxytetracycline, Pfizer), has not been described in detail, although numerous investigators have shown that the antibiotic exerts an inhibitory effect on oxidative mechanisms. Terramycin inhibition of the oxidation of Krebs cycle intermediates by Escherichia coli was rieported by Wong and Ajl (1953). Similarly, Ajl (1953) observed the terramycin inhibition of...
