Vibrio parahaemolyticus toxRS operon (VP0819-VP0820) regulates outer membrane proteins OmpU and OmpN that are important for survival in acid stress
Introduction One of the main regulators of virulence in Vibrio cholerae is the two-component regulator ToxRS. In V. cholerae, ToxR binds to the promoter and activates the toxT gene, which in turn activates the expression of a number of virulence genes, such as ctxA and tcpA (DiRita et al. 1991). Additonally, ToxR has also been shown to regulate the two outer membrane porins, OmpU and OmpT in a ...
متن کاملModulation of responses of Vibrio parahaemolyticus O3:K6 to pH and temperature stresses by growth at different salt concentrations.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus inhabits marine, brackish, and estuarine waters worldwide, where fluctuations in salinity pose a constant challenge to the osmotic stress response of the organism. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a moderate halophile, having an absolute requirement for salt for survival, and is capable of growth at 1 to 9% NaCl. It is the leading cause of seafood-related bacterial gastroenter...
متن کاملA novel, conserved cluster of genes promotes symbiotic colonization and sigma-dependent biofilm formation by Vibrio fischeri.
Vibrio fischeri is the exclusive symbiont residing in the light organ of the squid Euprymna scolopes. To understand the genetic requirements for this association, we searched a library of V. fischeri transposon insertion mutants for those that failed to colonize E. scolopes. We identified four mutants that exhibited severe defects in initiating colonization. Sequence analysis revealed that the ...
متن کاملGenotypic analyses of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and development of a pandemic group-specific multiplex PCR assay.
A total of 54 Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains including pandemic O3:K6 strains and newly emerged O4:K68, O1:K25, O1:K26, and O1:K untypeable strains (collectively referred to as the "pandemic group") were examined for their pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and arbitrarily primed PCR (AP-PCR) profiles and for the presence or absence of genetic marker DNA sequences, toxRS/new or orf8, that...
متن کاملFunctional Analysis of VopF Activity Required for Colonization in Vibrio cholerae
Vibrio cholerae, a Gram-negative facultative pathogen, is the etiologic agent for the diarrheal disease cholera. We previously characterized a clinical isolate, AM-19226, that translocates a type III secretion system (T3SS) effector protein with actin-nucleating activity, VopF, into the host cells. From comparative genomic studies, we identified a divergent T3SS island in additional isolates wh...
