Antimicrobial spectrum determination of the K5 type yeast killer protein and its kinetics of cell killing Türel, Akif Emre; İzgü, Kadri Fatih; Department of Biology (2005) Some yeast strains under certain conditions secrete into the medium polypeptide toxins which are inhibitory to sensitive cells. These yeast strains are termed as killer yeasts and their toxins are designated as killer proteins or killer toxins. Killer proteins are classified into 11 typical types (K1-K11). These toxins have different killing mechanisms on sensitive cells. Some of them hydrolyze major cell wall component β-1,3- glucans. As mammalian cells lack cell walls research and development of novel hig...
Antimicrobial spectrum determination of the K5 type yeast killer protein on bacteria causing skin infections and its cell killing activity Gönen, Tuğçe; İzgü, Kadri Fatih; Department of Biology (2006) Some yeast strains secrete extracellular polypeptide toxins known to have potential growth inhibitory activity on sensitive yeast cells. These yeast strains are known as killer yeasts and their toxins are named as killer toxins or killer proteins. Yeast killer proteins are found inhibitory to Gram-positive bacteria in several studies which were based on microbial interactions of the producer strains tested with sensitive strains. K5 type yeast killer protein produced by Pichia anomala NCYC 434 was previousl...
Antimicrobial aptamers for detection and inhibition of microbial pathogen growth Ozalp, Veli Cengiz; Bilecen, Kivanc; Kavruk, Murat; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni (Future Medicine Ltd, 2013-03-01) Discovery of alternative sources of antimicrobial agents are essential in the ongoing battle against microbial pathogens. Legislative and scientific challenges considerably hinder the discovery and use of new antimicrobial drugs, and new approaches are in urgent demand. On the other hand, rapid, specific and sensitive detection of airborne pathogens is becoming increasingly critical for public health. In this respect affinity oligonucleotides, aptamers, provide unique opportunities for the development of na...
ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF TITANIUM NANOPARTICLES ERDURAL, B. K.; YURUM, A.; BAKIR, U.; Karakaş, Gürkan (2007-06-15) In the present study, nanostructured titania particles were synthesized using hydrothermal processing and their photocatalytic antimicrobial activities were characterized. Sol-gel synthesized TiO2 samples were treated with a two step hydrothermal treatment. The first stage treatment was the alkaline treatment with 10 M of NaOH for 48 h at 130 degrees C, followed with the second step which applied with distilled water for 48 h at 200 degrees C. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images showed that alkaline t...
