The structural and antimicrobial functions of lysozyme reduced with food-compatible reducing agents-cysteine (Cys) and glutathione (GSH)-were investigated. The disulfide bonds were partially reduced by thiol-disulfide exchange reactions under heat-induced denaturing conditions from 55 to 90 degrees C. The results showed that treatment of lysozyme with Cys and GSH resulted in the introduction of new half-cystine residues (2-3 residues/mol of protein). The released SH groups, in turn, rendered the lysozyme molecule more flexible, being accompanied by a dramatic increase in the surface hydrophobicity and exposure of tryptophan residues. As a consequence, the resulting reduced lysozymes were more capable of binding to lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and permeabilizing the bacterial outer membrane, as evidenced by the liposome leakage experiment, than were native or heated lysozyme. Both reduced lysozymes displayed significantly higher antimicrobial activity than native or heated lysozyme against Salmonella enteritidis (SE) in sodium phosphate buffer (10 mM, pH 7.2) at 30 degrees C for 1 h. Their minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against the tested bacteria were about 150- and 25-fold lower than their respective MICs of native or heated lysozyme. The results suggest that partially reduced lysozyme could be used as a potential antimicrobial agent for prevention of SE attack. 相似文献

Despite their economic and ecological importance, migratory fishes of the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) remain understudied, which hampers effective management to sustain valuable fisheries and address serious threats such as habitat degradation, development and overharvest. From a list of potential knowledge needs, a group of fisheries professionals most frequently identified six top priorities for managing migratory fishes in Cambodia: (1) population abundances and trends, (2) life cycles and life history, (3) migration timing and triggers, (4) migration routes and distances, (5) locations of key habitats and spawning areas, and (6) environmental and habitat requirements. These needs are discussed along with nine relevant methodologies for addressing them, including fisheries-dependent and fisheries-independent sampling, reproductive techniques and captive studies, otolith and genetic analysis tools, and tagging and imaging techniques. A suggested research framework is also presented to inform adaptive management of migratory fishes. While emphasis is given to Cambodia, the analysis is also applicable to other LMB countries, given that migratory fishes occur throughout the basin and migrate across borders. It is suggested that a robust research and monitoring agenda is required to prioritise knowledge needs and select appropriate methodologies to answer questions vital to inform sustainable migratory fish management in Cambodia. 相似文献
