25. pH dependence and gene structure of inaA in Escherichia coli.
The weak-acid-inducible locus inaA in Escherichia coli was mapped to 48.6 min by P1 cotransduction of inaA Mud lac fusions and linked Tn10 insertions. The inaA1::lac fusion tested negative for phenotypes characteristic of mutations in the nearby locus ubiG. Sequence analysis of a fragment amplified by polymerase chain reaction located the inaA1::lac fusion j

26. Comparison of experimental models for Streptococcus suis infection of conventional pigs
Four different experimental models for Streptococcus suis-induced disease were compared to find a model that closely mimics naturally occurring disease in conventional pigs. Fourteen, 2-week old pigs free of S. suis type 2 were used in 2 experiments. In experiment 1, 3 pigs were inoculated intravenously (IV) and 3 pigs intranasally (IN) with S. suis. Two out

27. Hydrogen Peroxide Activates the SoxRS Regulon In Vivo
By multiplex reverse transcription-PCR, we demonstrate that the SoxRS response, which protects cells against superoxide toxicity, is triggered also by hydrogen peroxide. SoxR-dependent inductions of 7.3-, 7.6-, 4.6-, 2.2-, and 2.6-fold were quantified for soxS, micF, sodA, inaA, and fpr transcripts, respectively. This finding suggests an extensive and tight

28. Constricted Flux through the Branched-Chain Amino Acid Biosynthetic Enzyme Acetolactate Synthase Triggers Elevated Expression of Genes Regulated by rpoS and Internal Acidification
The first common enzyme of isoleucine and valine biosynthesis, acetolactate synthase (ALS), is specifically inhibited by the herbicide sulfometuron methyl (SM). To further understand the physiological consequences of flux alterations at this point in metabolism, Escherichia coli genes whose expression was induced by partial inhibition of ALS were sought. Pla

29. Stainless steel manual metal arc welding fumes in rats.
Forty two male Wistar rats were exposed to manual metal arc (MMA) stainless steel (SS) welding fumes generated by an automatic welding device for "nose-only" exposure. The exposure simulated an actual MMA/SS welding environment as closely as possible. For the retention study, the duration of exposure was one hour per workday for one, two, three, of four week

30. Defining a rob Regulon in Escherichia coli by Using Transposon Mutagenesis
The Rob protein of Escherichia coli is a member of the AraC-XylS family of prokaryotic transcriptional regulators and is expressed constitutively. Deletion of the rob gene increases susceptibility to organic solvents, while overexpression of Rob increases tolerance to organic solvents and resistance to a variety of antibiotics and to the superoxide-generatin

31. Activation of multiple antibiotic resistance and binding of stress-inducible promoters by Escherichia coli Rob protein.
Multiple antibiotic resistance in Escherichia coli can be mediated by induction of the SoxS or MarA protein, triggered by oxygen radicals (in the soxRS regulon) or certain antibiotics (in the marRAB regulon), respectively. These small proteins (SoxS, 107 residues; MarA, 127 residues) are homologous to the C terminus of the XylS-AraC family of proteins and ar
