    Notizen: Microbial cell surface glycans in the form of glycolipids and glycoproteins frequently play important roles in cell–cell interaction and host immune responses. Given the likely importance of these surface structures in the survival and pathogenesis of Campylobacter jejuni, a concerted effort has been made to characterise these determinants genetically and structurally since the genome was sequenced in 2000. We review the considerable progress made in characterising the Campylobacter glycome including the lipooligosaccharide (LOS), the capsule and O- and N-linked protein glycosylation systems, and speculate on the roles played by glycan surface structures in the life-cycle of C. jejuni.

    Notizen: Enteric Campylobacter species cause gastrointestinal diseases in humans. Like almost all organisms, campylobacters have an absolute requirement for iron, but are faced with variable availability of iron in the environment and host tissues. Campylobacters have developed mechanisms to scavenge sufficient iron for metabolism and growth. However, iron also participates in the formation of reactive oxygen species, and this forces pathogens to maintain intracellular iron homeostasis and to cope with oxidative stresses. The presence of two separate, but possibly overlapping iron-responsive regulatory systems, which regulate iron acquisition and oxidative stress defense, and the presence of genes encoding multiple iron acquisition and detoxification systems in Campylobacter indicate the central role that iron plays in Campylobacter gene regulation and virulence.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: A lacZ-based reporter gene system was used to identify the promoter of the Campylobacter jejuni iron-responsive gene regulator Fur. In other Gram-negative bacteria, the fur promoter is usually located directly upstream of the fur gene and is often autoregulated in response to iron. In this study we demonstrate that expression of the C. jejuni fur gene is controlled from two promoters located in front of the first and second open reading frames upstream of fur. Neither of these promoters was iron-regulated, and the presence of both promoters in front of fur gives higher expression of the lacZ reporter than with either promoter alone. Expression from two distal promoters might be a mechanism for regulating the level of the C. jejuni Fur protein in response to unknown stimuli.

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: A gene encoding a putative 2[4Fe–4S] ferredoxin (FdxA) was identified upstream of, and divergent to the peroxide stress defense gene ahpC of the microaerophilic pathogen Campylobacter jejuni. The transcription start site of fdxA was located 27 and 28 bp upstream of the fdxA start codon. Transcriptional fusions of the fdxA promoter to a lacZ reporter gene demonstrated that expression of fdxA is iron-induced, and thus oppositely regulated to the iron-repressed ahpC gene. Insertional mutagenesis of the fdxA gene did not affect microaerobic growth of C. jejuni, but significantly reduced aerotolerance of C. jejuni. The fdxA gene is the first reported iron-induced gene of C. jejuni, and encodes a novel component of its oxidative stress defense.

    Notizen: The mechanisms whereby Campylobacter jejuni translocates across the host intestinal epithelium are not yet understood and the transepithelial route remains undefined. During C. jejuni translocation, the transmonolayer electrical resistance (TER) across polarised monolayers of Caco-2 cells is not affected and the penetration of [14C]inulin across the monolayers does not increase. Over 24 h, however, bacteria damage the monolayer integrity, causing a decrease in the TER. These results support C. jejuni translocation through the cytoplasm of invaded cells (transcellular) rather than via intercellular spaces (paracellular).

    Notizen: Abstract Attempts to transform wilt type strains of V. cholerae with plasmid DNA by traditional osmotic shock methods were note successful. A mutant of V. cholerae that was deficient in extracellular DNase was transformed with plasmid DNA by osmotic shock, demonstrating directly that extracellular DNase is a major barrier to transformation of V. cholerae. Transformation of wild type of DNase-negative strains of V. cholerae was accomplished by electroporation. Efficiency of transformation by electroporation increased with field strength, decreased with plasmid size, and was relatively insensitive to changes in the electrolyte composition of the buffer as long as isotonic sucrose was present. Host-controlled modification/restriction systems also affected transformation efficiency in V. cholerae.
