Effect of metal ions on growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and siderophore and protein production.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (GRC1) isolated from potato rhizosphere, grew better on succinate medium than tryptic soy medium and produced hydroxamate type of siderophore in iron-deficient succinate medium. When the strain GRC1 was grown in the presence of different metal ion compounds, viz. ZnSO4, MnSO4, MnCl2 and FeCl3 at 6 and 12 microM concentrations individually, ZnSO4 (12 microM) promoted siderophore production but suppressed the growth and protein content of test organism. MnCl2 and FeCl3 (12 microM) enhanced the growth, whereas MnCl2 and MnSO4 (12 microM) induced protein contents of strain GRC1.

Social evolution of toxic metal bioremediation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Bacteria are often iron-limited, and hence produce extracellular iron-scavenging siderophores. A crucial feature of siderophore production is that it can be an altruistic behaviour (individually costly but benefitting neighbouring cells), thus siderophore producers can be invaded by non-producing social 'cheats'. Recent studies have shown that siderophores can also bind other heavy metals (such...
متن کاملCharacterization of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria associated with chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are known to influence plant growth by various direct or indirect mechanisms. In search of efficient PGPR strains with multiple activities, a total of 150 bacterial isolates belonging to Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Azotobacter and Rhizobium were isolated from different rhizospheric soil of chick pea in the vicinity of Allahabad. These test isolates were bi...
متن کاملThe Effect of Combination of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Alginate and an Immunomodulator Protein of Garlic on Opsonophagocytosis in Murine Model
Background & Aims: Chronic pulmonary infection in patients with cystic fibrosis is predominantly due to infection by mucoid strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Mucoid P. aeruginosa is due to the production of exopolysaccharide called also alginate. Alginate in addition to interference with the clearance of lung has antiphagocytic property. Optimal killing activity of P. aeruginosa requires opson...
متن کاملEffect of single additive bivalent metal ions on the growth of Streptomyces clavuligerus and clavulanic acid production
Metal ions are the main impurities of water and media ingredients used in fermentation processes. In this research, the effect of Ca+2, Co+2, Cu+2, Fe+2, Mg+2, Mn+2 and Zn+2 as chloride and sulfate salts was studied on the clavulanic acid production and Streptomyces clavuligerus growth. All chloride salts had negative effect on clavulanic acid production and no clavulanic acid was produced in t...
متن کاملThe metal dependence of pyoverdine interactions with its outer membrane receptor FpvA.
To acquire iron, Pseudomonas aeruginosa secretes the fluorescent siderophore pyoverdine (Pvd), which chelates iron and shuttles it into the cells via the specific outer membrane transporter FpvA. We studied the role of iron and other metals in the binding and transport of Pvd by FpvA and conclude that there is no significant affinity between FpvA and metal-free Pvd. We found that the fluorescen...
