Involvement of two transport systems and a specific porin in the uptake of phthalate by Burkholderia spp.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Burkholderia spp. that degrade phthalate have an ABC transporter-type phthalate transport system (OphFGH) and a specific porin (OphP) in addition to a permease-type phthalate transporter (OphD). OphFGH has a lower K(m) and higher V(max) than OphD, which affects how the bacteria grow. OphP is involved in both mechanisms of transport.

Characterization of the phthalate permease OphD from Burkholderia cepacia ATCC 17616.
The ophD gene, encoding a permease for phthalate transport, was cloned from Burkholderia cepacia ATCC 17616. Expression of the gene in Escherichia coli results in the ability to transport phthalate rapidly into the cell. Uptake inhibition experiments show that 4-hydroxyphthalate, 4-chlorophthalate, 4-methylphthalate, and cinchomeronate compete for the phthalate permease. An ophD knockout mutant...

متن کاملPublic Transport Ontology for Passenger Information Retrieval
Passenger information aims at improving the user-friendliness of public transport systems while influencing passenger route choices to satisfy transit user’s travel requirements. The integration of transit information from multiple agencies is a major challenge in implementation of multi-modal passenger information systems. The problem of information sharing is further compounded by the multi-l...
متن کاملNovel organization of the genes for phthalate degradation from Burkholderia cepacia DBO1.
Burkholderia cepacia DBO1 is able to utilize phthalate as the sole source of carbon and energy for growth. Two overlapping cosmid clones containing the genes for phthalate degradation were isolated from this strain. Subcloning and activity analysis localized the genes for phthalate degradation to two separate regions on the cosmid clones. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence of these two regions...
متن کاملIn-vitro cellular uptake and transport study of 9-nitrocamptothecin PLGA nanoparticles across Caco-2 cell monolayer model
The uptake and transport of 9-nitrocamptothecin (9-NC), a potent anticancer agent, across Caco-2 cell monolayers was studied as a free and PLGA nanoparticle loaded drug. Different sizes (110 to 950 nm) of 9-nitrocamptothecin nanoparticles using poly (lactic-glycolic acid) were prepared by via the nanoprecipitation method. The transport of nanoparticles across the Caco-2 cell monolayer as a func...
