In Escherichia coli, the glutathione/glutaredoxin and thioredoxin pathways are essential for the reduction of cytoplasmic protein disulfide bonds, including those formed in the essential enzyme ribonucleotide reductase during its action on substrates. Double mutants lacking thioredoxin reductase (trxB) and glutathione reductase (gor) or glutathione biosynthesis (gshA) cannot grow. Growth of Del...
The ahpC (MSMEG_4891) gene encodes alkyl hydroperoxide reductase C in Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 and its expression is induced under oxidative stress conditions. Two well-defined inverted repeat sequences (IR1 and IR2) were identified in the upstream region of ahpC. Using a crp (cAMP receptor protein: MSMEG_6189) mutant and in vitro DNA-binding assay, it was demonstrated that the IR1 sequen...
A cDNA corresponding to a thiol-specific antioxidant enzyme (TSA) was isolated from a rat brain cDNA library with the use of antibodies to bovine TSA. The cDNA clone encoded an open reading frame capable of encoding a 198-residue polypeptide. The rat and yeast TSA proteins show significant sequence homology to the 21-kDa component (AhpC) of Salmonella typhimurium alkyl hydroperoxide reductase, ...
The ahpC genes of 57 clinical isolates and one in vitro mutant of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were evaluated by nucleotide sequence analyses. Although compensatory ahpC promoter mutations were identified in 8 catalase-negative, katG-defective strains, the ahpC genes of 25 catalase-positive, isoniazid-resistant isolates and 25 drug-sensitive strains were not altered.
From Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli, we have isolated by two independent methods genes involved in peroxide detoxification (ahpC and ahpF), a gene involved in peroxide sensing and transcription regulation (oxyR), and a gene of unknown function (orfX). Amino acid sequence analysis of AhpC, AhpF, and OxyR showed high identity with bacterial homologs. OrfX was a small cysteine-rich protein wi...
BACKGROUND Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (AhpC) of Helicobacter pylori is considered as a diagnostic antigen. Therefore, this antigen can be used to detect H. pylori infection by stool immunoassays such as ELISA. The aim of this study was to simplify the AhpC protein purification procedures. METHODS For whole cell protein extraction, the bacterial cells were ruptured by octly-β-D glucopyranos...
Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease consisting of a variety of different leukemic subtypes. While acute promyelocytic leukemia displays marked sensitivity to the differentiating effects of trans-retinoic acid (tRA), other subtypes of AML display resistance. We now describe a novel compound (E)-4-[3-(1-adamantyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]-3-chlorocinnamic acid (3-Cl-AHPC/MM002) th...
Helicobacter pylori, an oxygen-sensitive microaerophilic bacterium, contains many antioxidant proteins, among which alkylhydroperoxide reductase (AhpC) is the most abundant. The function of AhpC is to protect H. pylori from a hyperoxidative environment by reduction of toxic organic hydroperoxides. We have found that the sequence of AhpC from H. pylori is more homologous to mammalian peroxiredox...
Antisense RNA is a versatile tool for reducing gene expression. It was used to determine if ahpC, a gene that is involved in defence against oxidative stress and isoniazid (INH) resistance, is important for virulence of Mycobacterium bovis, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Antisense RNA constructs of ahpC were made using different strength promoters in front of a reversed cod...
development of a stool antigen immunoassay to detect helicobacter pylori infection requires monoclonal antibody against the specific antigen. alkylhydroperoxide reductase (ahpc) of helicobacter pylori has been described as a specific and unique enzyme for h. pylori and therefore, both h. pylori ahpc and anti-ahpc could be useful in the development of serologic and stool antigen tests, for detec...
