چکیده

A mutation in the crp gene of Salmonella typhimurium is described which overcame the defects of ptsHI deletion mutants for growth on a number of nonphosphotransferase system compounds. This mutation abolished inducer exclusion in a leaky ptsI mutant. The possible implications for the mechanism of inducer exclusion are discussed.

Phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system-mediated regulation of carbohydrate metabolism in Salmonella typhimurium.

The crr mutation was shown to affect the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system-mediated transient repression of the lac operon, intracellular cAMP levels, and sensitivity to inducer exclusion. Our results indicate that the presumed crr gene product, factor IIIGlc, plays a direct role in the regulation of inducer exclusion. We propose a mechanism in which inducer exclusion depends ...

Molecular study of Salmonella typhimurium integrons gene isolated from food sources and the effect of probiotic Bifidobacterium bifidum on its expression by Real time PCR

Background: Salmonella belongs to the family of Enterobacteriaceae, an intestinal, gram negative, and anaerobic bacterium. Salmonella affects a wide range of vertebrates, mainly through direct and indirect contact with the infected source. Salmonellosis is a dangerous infectious disease and a common human-animal disease. The integron (int) gene is effective in drug resistance and bacterial prol...

GENERATION OF A GENE CONSTRUCT TO SIPA GENE DELETION OF SALMONELLA TYPHIMURIUM

Background & Aims: Salmonella Typhimurium is a negative-gram, non-spore, free capsule, moving bacteria with Trish Perry flagella. Salmonella is the most common cause of food poisoning. The ability to enter and survive in host cells is the condition for pathogenic Salmonella species. Proteins of invasive Salmonella are transferred to the host cells by bacteria. This study was performed for gener...

PCR–RFLP of isolated Salmonella from poultry with Sau3AI and HhaI restriction endonucleases in Arak

Salmonella enterica is considered as one of the major pathogens in public health, worldwide. Diseases caused by Salmonella enterica serovars are especially prevalent in developing countries. It is one of the emerging pathogen in food-borne diseases, which is often found in contaminated chicken eggs. The aim of this study was to apply a PCR–RFLP method using Sau3AI and HhaI restriction endonucle...
