Influence of Phosphate Starvation on Cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Phosphate starvation promotes swarming motility and cytotoxicity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

We investigated the transcriptional responses of Pseudomonas aeruginosa under phosphate-deficient (0.2 mM) conditions compared to phosphate sufficiency (1 mM). This elicited enormous transcriptional changes in genes related to phosphate acquisition, quorum sensing, chemotaxis, toxin secretion, and regulation. This dysregulation also led to increased virulence-associated phenotypes, including sw...

the influence of the neo-platonic concept of poetic imagination on wordsworth’s poetry

بر اساس نظریه افلاطون در باره شعر خلاقیت هنری مورد انتقاد قرار گرفته است. نظریه کلی در مورد شعر این بود که شعر از ظواهرتقلید میکند و نه حقیقت. چون سایه ای از حقیقت است. اما با پیدایش فلسفه نو افلاطونی، انتقاتات قبلی در مورد شعر و شاعری اصلاح شد. فلوطین در کتاب انئید، اساس خلق هنری را بر محور مُثل افلاطونی قرار داد. وی باور داشت که هنر مندان در خلق آثار هنری، تحت تاثیر مُثل افلاطونی بوده و عوالمی ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin: effect on cell cultures.

Influence of carbon or nitrogen starvation on amino acid transport in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa was shown to utilize the majority of commonly occurring amino acids for growth as either the sole carbon or the sole nitrogen source. During carbon or nitrogen deprivation, the rates of transport of most of the amino acids remained unchanged; however, the transport rates for glutamate, alanine, and glycine increased under these conditions and the transport rates for leuci...

Regulation of components of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa phosphate-starvation-inducible regulon in Escherichia coli.

Plasmids pPBP and pRS-XP containing the cloned genes for the Pseudomonas aeruginosa phosphate-starvation-inducible periplasmic phosphate-binding protein and outer membrane porin P (oprP), respectively, were introduced into various Escherichia coli Pho-regulon regulatory mutants. Using Western immunoblots and specific antisera, the production of both gene products was observed to be under the co...
