Dual role of the oligopeptide permease Opp3 during growth of Staphylococcus aureus in milk.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Staphylococcus aureus RN6390 presents a diauxic growth in milk, due to amino acid limitation. Inactivation of the oligopeptide permease Opp3 (dedicated to the nitrogen nutrition of the strain) not only affects the growth of the strain but also results in reduced expression levels of three major extracellular proteases.

First description of novel arginine catabolic mobile elements (ACMEs) types IV and V harboring a kdp operon in Staphylococcus epidermidis characterized by whole genome sequencing.
The arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) was first described in the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain USA300 and is thought to facilitate survival on skin. To date three distinct ACME types have been characterized comprehensively in S. aureus and/or Staphylococcus epidermidis. Type I harbors the arc and opp3 operons encoding an arginine deaminase pathway and an oligopeptide...
متن کاملOnly one of four oligopeptide transport systems mediates nitrogen nutrition in Staphylococcus aureus.
Oligopeptides internalized by oligopeptide permease (Opp) transporters play key roles in bacterial nutrition, signaling, and virulence. To date, two opp operons, opp-1 and opp-2, have been identified in Staphylococcus aureus. Systematic in silico analysis of 11 different S. aureus genomes revealed the existence of two new opp operons, opp-3 and opp-4, plus an opp-5A gene encoding a putative pep...

Background & Objective: Milk and dairy products are good nutritional environments for bacterial growth. Different types of bacteria can quickly contaminate them and as a result, these products cause disease in human after transmission. Staphylococcus aureus is among the bacteria of milk and dairy products that cause disease in human. With regard to the point that traditional cheese(unpast...
متن کاملEpoxypeptide antibiotic tetaine mimics peptides in transport to bacteria.
Tetaine induced the lysis of Escherichia coli cells. Several di- and tripeptides were found to protect this cells against tetaine action. Certain peptides are able to diminish the inhibition by tetaine of diaminopimelic acid incorporation into peptidoglycan and the extent of this corresponds to the protection of the cells against the tetaine-induced lysis. The data indicate that tetaine enters ...
متن کاملPheP, a putative amino acid permease of Staphylococcus aureus, contributes to survival in vivo and during starvation.
PheP, a putative amino acid permease in Staphylococcus aureus, contributes to starvation survival under glucose-limiting conditions and virulence. A pheP mutation led to poor growth after microaerobic or anaerobic incubation on pig serum agar, which was recovered by phenylalanine addition. Genetic complementation of pheP restored growth and starvation survival.
