Triggering of the antibacterial activity of Bacillus subtilis B38 strain against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract:

:When cultured in minimal growth medium, the B38 strain of Bacillus subtilis did not exhibit any antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clinical isolate. Coculturing B38 strain with viable MRSA cells weakly increased antibacterial activity production (20 AU/ml). Addition of dead MRSA cells in a B38 culture, increased by 8-fold the B. subtilis strain antibacterial activity reaching 160 AU/ml against MRSA strain. This antibacterial activity recovered from cell-free supernatants was stimulated by an autoinducing compound which is sensitive to the action of proteinase K suggesting a proteinaceous nature. This compound was heat-stable till 80 °C and showed a molecular mass around 20 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE. These results suggest that the production of antibacterial compounds by B38 strain is dependent on the amount of the autoinducing compound.

  • Exploring the cause of oseltamivir resistance against mutant H274Y neuraminidase by molecular simulation approach.

    abstract::Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) is the preferred anti-viral drug employed to fight the flu virus in infected individuals. The principal target for this drug is a virus surface glycoprotein, neuraminidase (NA), which facilitates the release of nascent virus and thus spreads infections. Until recently, only a low prevalence of ne...
