چکیده

Salmonella typhimurium TA 100 was mutagenized with photoactivated aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and AFB2. Levels of mutagenesis induced by AFB1 correlated with levels of in vitro covalent binding of [3H]AFB1 to calf thymus DNA. The same phenomenon was observed with AFB2. Photoactivated AFB1 induced lethality in the mutagenized cultures, and AFB2 failed to do so. Extraction of nucleic acids from cultures mutagenized by photoactivated or metabolically activated [3H]AFB1 revealed that: (a) in situ levels of [3H]AFB1 binding to DNA were proportional to induction of mutational and lethal events in both cases; (b) mammalian metabolism and photoactivation produced AFB1:DNA lesions possessing comparable lethality and mutagenicity; and (c) [3H]AFB1 binding levels to bacterial RNA did not correlate with mutagenesis and lethality.

Lack of mutagenicity to Salmonella typhimurium of some Fusarium mycotoxins.

The mutagenicity of eight Fusarium toxins (mono-, di-, and triacetoxyscirpenol, T-2 toxin, deoxynivalenol, 3-acetyl-deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, and moniliformin) and of two positive controls (aflatoxin B1 and sterigmatocystin) to histidine-requiring strains TA 98, 100, 1535, and 1537 of Salmonella typhimurium was tested both with and without metabolic activation. Both aflatoxin B1 and sterigma...

Liver microsomal metabolism of aflatoxin B 1 to a reactive derivative toxic to Salmonella typhimurium TA 1530.

A reduction in the survival of Salmonella typhimurium TA 1530 was observed when the bacteria were incubated with aflatoxin B¡,rat liver microsomes, and a reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-generating system. The lethality appeared to depend on the formation of a metabolite of aflatoxin B] by a mixed-function oxygenase system. The killing was very rapid; only 1% of the bacteria...

Construction of a recombinant vector for site-directed mutagenesis in Salmonella typhimurium

BACKGROUND: Among all common techniques in sitedirectedmutagenesis, λ Red recombinase system has beenwidely used to knock out chromosomal genes in bacteria. In thismethod, there is always the risk of DNA Linear digestion byhost's restriction enzymes that leads to the low frequency ofrecombination. OBJECTIVES:To overcome this, we constructeda recombinant vector to disrupt phoP gene in Salmonella...

Five of 12 forms of vaccinia virus-expressed human hepatic cytochrome P450 metabolically activate aflatoxin B1.

Twelve forms of human hepatic cytochrome P450 were expressed in hepatoma cells by means of recombinant vaccinia viruses. The expressed P450s were analyzed for their abilities to activate the potent hepatocarcinogen aflatoxin B1 to metabolites having mutagenic or DNA-binding properties. Five forms, P450s IA2, IIA3, IIB7, IIIA3, and IIIA4, activated aflatoxin B1 to mutagenic metabolites as assess...
