Zinc oxide induces the stringent response and major reorientations in the central metabolism of Bacillus subtilis.
Microorganisms, such as bacteria, are one of the first targets of nanoparticles in the environment. In this study, we tested the effect of two nanoparticles, ZnO and TiO2, with the salt ZnSO4 as the control, on the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis by 2D gel electrophoresis-based proteomics. Despite a significant effect on viability (LD50), TiO2 NPs had no detectable effect on the prote...
متن کاملBacillus subtilis functional genomics: global characterization of the stringent response by proteome and transcriptome analysis.
The stringent response in Bacillus subtilis was characterized by using proteome and transcriptome approaches. Comparison of protein synthesis patterns of wild-type and relA mutant cells cultivated under conditions which provoke the stringent response revealed significant differences. According to their altered synthesis patterns in response to DL-norvaline, proteins were assigned to four distin...
متن کاملAuxotrophy-based High Throughput Screening assay for the identification of Bacillus subtilis stringent response inhibitors
The stringent response is a central adaptation mechanism that allows bacteria to adjust their growth and metabolism according to environmental conditions. The functionality of the stringent response is crucial for bacterial virulence, survival during host invasion as well as antibiotic resistance and tolerance. Therefore, specific inhibitors of the stringent response hold great promise as molec...
متن کاملConstitutive Stringent Response Restores Viability of Bacillus subtilis Lacking Structural Maintenance of Chromosome Protein
Bacillus subtilis mutants lacking the SMC-ScpAB complex are severely impaired for chromosome condensation and partitioning, DNA repair, and cells are not viable under standard laboratory conditions. We isolated suppressor mutations that restored the capacity of a smc deletion mutant (Δsmc) to grow under standard conditions. These suppressor mutations reduced chromosome segregation defects and a...
متن کاملIndirect involvement of the stringent response of Bacillus subtilis in the development of self-resistance to its own antibiotic.
Bacillus subtilis Marburg has been found to produce an appreciable antibiotic activity in a synthetic medium, in parallel with its growth1). Using an isogenic relaxed mutant, which is not able to exert the stringent response (i.e. accumulation of intracellular ppGpp (guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate) or pppGpp (guanosine 5'-triphosphate 3'-diphosphate)) due to a re/9 mutation, it has bee...
