Characteristics of heat-stable extracellular hemolysin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heat-stable hemolysin produced by the cellophane-agar plate method consisted of two major acidic glycolipids. One was composed of 2 mol of rhamnose and 2 mol of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid, and the other was composed of 1 mol of rhamnose and 2 mol of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid. The hemolysis-producing moiety of the hemolysin was shown to be the dimer of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid contained in the glycolipid molecule.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa EF2, ATCC 9027 and ATCC 19660 were grown in a continuous culture under Tween 80 (polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate) limitation and optimum conditions (pH 6.5, 37°C at dilution rate of 0.05/h). Culture supernatants were carefully removed and stored at -20°C. To purify the lipases, the culture supernatant was reduced in volume to approximately 10 mL by an ultrafiltra...

Background: Infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in patients who suffer from impaired immune responses and chronic diseases such as cystic fibrosis. At present, aggressive antibiotic therapy is the only choice for management of P. aeruginosa infections, but emergence of highly resistant strains necessitated the development of novel alt...
متن کاملIdentification of a new phospholipase C activity by analysis of an insertional mutation in the hemolytic phospholipase C structural gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The phospholipase C (PLC) gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa encodes a heat-labile secreted hemolysin which is part of a Pi-regulated operon. The structural gene for PLC, plcS, was mutated in vitro by insertion of a tetracycline resistance gene cartridge. Gene replacement techniques were used to introduce the mutated plcS gene into the P. aeruginosa chromosome in place of the wild-type gene. The pr...
