Of the three strains of E. coli O157:H7 used in this study, two strains produced both verotoxin-1 and verotoxin-2 and one strain produced only verotoxin-2. Treatment of E. coli O157:H7 with sodium nitrite (6,000 mg/L, a minimum inhibitory concentration) did not increase the levels of verotoxin-1 and verotoxin-2 compared with treatment by sodium chloride or antibiotics. When the electron paramanetic resonance spectrum of sodium nitrite-treated bacterial cells was examined at 77K to clarify the mechanism of the anti-bacterial activity of nitric oxide derived from sodium nitrite, electron paramagnetic resonance signals with g-values of 2.035 and 2.010 were observed. These were identified as being derived from iron-nitric oxide complexes. It appeared that the dinitrosyl iron complexes in the E. coli O157:H7 cells were generated through reaction of iron-sulfur proteins (enzymes) with nitric oxide formed by the reduction of sodium nitrite. These findings indicate that nitric oxide derived from sodium nitrite penetrates the cells and inactivates enzymes related to the respiratory chain., P(論文), 特集, application/pdf, FEATURE ARTICLES}, pages = {176--181}, title = {一酸化窒素による腸管出血性大腸菌O157の抗菌メカニズムとベロトキシン産生量}, volume = {5/6}, year = {2003} }
