Different conditions of oxidative stress were used to study their effects on membrane transport in Escherichia coli K-12. The oxidizing conditions included H2O2, plumbagin (a redox cycling compound that generates superoxide radicals [O2-]), and increased partial pressure of oxygen. Both superoxide radical-generating conditions and H2O2 treatments were found to cause a rapid decrease in proton motive force-dependent and -independent transport. H2O2-pretreated cells had the ability to rapidly recover both proton motive force-dependent and -independent transport. The induction required transcription and translation and was dependent on oxyR+ and katG+, providing evidence that these genes play crucial roles in the rapid recovery of transport. The effects of oxidatively induced loss of proton motive force on cell growth and macromolecular synthesis were also investigated.
利用不同的氧化应激条件来研究它们对大肠杆菌K-12膜转运的影响。氧化条件包括过氧化氢、白花丹醌(一种能产生超氧阴离子自由基[O2-]的氧化还原循环化合物)以及氧气分压的增加。发现超氧阴离子自由基产生条件和过氧化氢处理均会导致质子动力依赖型和非依赖型转运迅速下降。经过氧化氢预处理的细胞能够迅速恢复质子动力依赖型和非依赖型转运。这种诱导需要转录和翻译,并且依赖于oxyR+和katG+,这表明这些基因在转运的快速恢复中起关键作用。还研究了氧化诱导的质子动力丧失对细胞生长和大分子合成的影响。
