Transient interference with staphylococcal quorum sensing blocks abscess formation.
The staphylococcal virulon is controlled largely by the agr locus, a global accessory gene regulator that is autoinduced by a self-coded peptide (AIP) and is therefore a quorum sensor. The agr locus has diverged within and between species, giving rise to AIP variants that inhibit heterologous agr activation, an effect with therapeutic potential against Staphylococcus aureus: a single dose of an...
متن کاملStaphylococcal pathogenicity island interference with helper phage reproduction is a paradigm of molecular parasitism.
Staphylococcal pathogenicity islands (SaPIs) carry superantigen and resistance genes and are extremely widespread in Staphylococcus aureus and in other Gram-positive bacteria. SaPIs represent a major source of intrageneric horizontal gene transfer and a stealth conduit for intergeneric gene transfer; they are phage satellites that exploit the life cycle of their temperate helper phages with ele...
متن کاملRNA interference, growth and differentiation appear normal in African trypanosomes lacking Tudor staphylococcal nuclease
Ribonucleases play important roles in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The Dicer endonuclease converts double-stranded (ds)RNA into small interfering (si)RNA and the Slicer endonuclease, as a component of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC), cleaves mRNA. Tudor staphylococcal nuclease (Tudor-SN) is another component of RISC in humans, flies and nematodes and is therefore implicated in ...
متن کاملStaphylococcal Pneumonia
STAPHYLOCOCCAI pneumonia is a well-recognised complication of epidemic influenza. Chickering and Park (1919) described 155 cases, and more recently 66 cases were recorded by Finland, Peterson, and Strauss (1942). Smaller series have also been reported, and both the virus influenza A and the staphylococcus were isolated from patients by Scadding (1937) and Michael (1942). It can also occur as a ...
