Resistance can be mediated by numerous mechanisms documentation of the seasonality of diseases, notably malaria including mutations conferring changes to the genes encoding the and cholera by epidemiologists. The new research revealed a very target proteins as well as RND efflux pumps, which confer innate close interaction of the environment and many other infectious multi-drug resistance (MDR) to bacteria. The production of efflux diseases. With satellite sensors, these relationships were pumps can be increased, usually due to mutations in regulatory quantified and comparatively analyzed.

  • Rehmannia Glutinosa-Monocultured Rhizosphere Soil

There is an urgent need to study for the sustainable development of Chinese herbaceous medicine. Methodology/Principal Findings: Comparative metaproteomics of rhizosphere soil was developed and used to analyze the underlying mechanism of the consecutive monoculture problems of R. glutinosa. The 2D-gel patterns of protein spots for the soil samples showed a strong matrix dependency. Among the spots, 103 spots with high resolution and repeatability were randomly selected and successfully identified by MALDI TOF-TOF MS for a rhizosphere soil metaproteomic profile analysis. These proteins originating from plants and microorganisms play important roles in nutrient cycles and energy flow in rhizospheric soil ecosystem. They function in protein, nucleotide and secondary metabolisms, signal transduction and resistance. Comparative metaproteomics analysis revealed 33 differentially expressed protein spots in rhizosphere soil in response to increasing years of monoculture. Among them, plant proteins related to carbon and nitrogen metabolism and stress response, were mostly up-regulated except a down-regulated protein (glutathione S-transferase) involving detoxification.

    JOURNAL OF PROTEOMICS 85 (2013) 129– 159 Available online at www.sciencedirect.com www.elsevier.com/locate/jprot The inducers 1,3-diaminopropane and spermidine cause the reprogramming of metabolism in Penicillium chrysogenum, leading to multiple vesicles and penicillin overproduction Carlos García-Estradaa,⁎, Carlos Barreiroa, Mohammad-Saeid Jamia, Jorge Martín-Gonzáleza, Juan-Francisco Martínb,⁎⁎ aINBIOTEC, Instituto de Biotecnología de León, Avda. Real no. 1, Parque Científico de León, 24006 León, Spain bÁrea de Microbiología, Departamento de Biología Molecular, Universidad de León, Campus de Vegazana s/n; 24071 León, Spain ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Article history: In this article we studied the differential protein abundance of Penicillium chrysogenum in Received 21 February 2013 response to either 1,3-diaminopropane (1,3-DAP) or spermidine, which behave as inducers Accepted 15 April 2013 of the penicillin production process. Proteins were resolved in 2-DE gels and identified by Available online 30 April 2013 tandem MS spectrometry. Both inducers produced largely identical changes in the proteome, suggesting that they may be interconverted and act by the same mechanism. Keywords: The addition of either 1,3-DAP or spermidine led to the overrepresentation of the last 1,3-diaminopropane enzyme of the penicillin pathway, isopenicillin N acyltransferase (IAT). A modified form of Spermidine the IAT protein was newly detected in the polyamine-supplemented cultures. Both Penicillin inducers produced a rearrangement of the proteome resulting in an overrepresentation of Penicillium chrysogenum enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of valine and other precursors (e.g. coenzyme A) of Vesicles penicillin. Interestingly, two enzymes of the homogentisate pathway involved in the degradation of phenylacetic acid (a well-known precursor of benzylpenicillin) were reduced following the addition of either of these two inducers, allowing an increase of the phenylacetic acid availability.

Each module encodes a functional building unit containing ~1000 amino acids, which specifically The non-ribosomal synthesis of the cyclic peptide recognizes a single amino acid. Within such a protein antibiotic gramicidin S is accomplished by two large template-directed peptide biosynthesis, the occurrence and multifunctional enzymes, the peptide synthetases 1 and specific order of the modules in the genomic DNA dictate 2. The enzyme complex contains five conserved subunits the number and sequence of the amino acids to be of ~60 kDa which carry out ATP-dependent activation incorporated into the resulting oligopeptide. The modular of specific amino acids and share extensive regions of arrangement of peptide synthetases closely parallels the sequence similarity with adenylating enzymes such multienzyme complexes responsible for the biogenesis of as firefly luciferases and acyl-CoA ligases.
