efficient association of in vitro translation products with purified stable candida tropicalis peroxisomes.newly synthesized peroxisomal proteins enter preexisting peroxisomes posttranslationally in vivo, generally without proteolytic processing. an efficient reconstitution of this process in vitro together with cloned dnas for peroxisomal proteins would make possible investigation of the molecular information that targets proteins to peroxisomes. we have previously reported the isolation of clones for candida tropicalis peroxisomal proteins; here we describe the association (and possible import) of ...19873600648
kinetics and inhibition studies of catechol o-methyltransferase from the yeast candida tropicalis.the kms for esculetin and s-adenosyl-l-methionine for catechol o-methyltransferase from the yeast candida tropicalis were 6.2 and 40 microm, respectively. s-adenosyl-l-homocysteine was a very potent competitive inhibitor with respect to s-adenosyl-l-methionine, with a ki of 6.9 microm. of the catechol-related inhibitors, purpurogallin, with a ki of 0.07 microm, showed the greatest inhibitory effect. sulfhydryl group-blocking reagents, such as thiol-oxidizing 2-iodosobenzoic acid and mercaptide-f ...19873611026
import of the carboxy-terminal portion of acyl-coa oxidase into peroxisomes of candida tropicalis.we report the sequence of a cdna clone that codes for the carboxy-terminal portion of the peroxisomal protein, acyl-coa oxidase, from the yeast, candida tropicalis. this is a newly identified acyl-coa oxidase sequence, most likely a second allele of pox4. the cdna clone was expressed by in vitro transcription followed by translation. the major product, a 43-kd protein, associated with isolated peroxisomes in an in vitro import assay. more than half of the peroxisome-associated protein was protec ...19873611187
candida tropicalis infection in normal, diabetic, and neutropenic mice.opportunistic infections caused by candida tropicalis have been noted with increasing frequency in compromised patients. the pathogenicity of three isolates of c. tropicalis was studied in normal cd-1 mice, streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice, and cyclophosphamide-induced neutropenic mice. lethal dose 50% endpoints and quantitative distribution of yeast cells in spleen, liver, and kidneys of mice infected intravenously were determined. the virulence of one yeast isolate was greater than that of ...19873624439
possible mycological etiology of oral mucosal cancer: catalytic potential of infecting candida albicans and other yeasts in production of n-nitrosobenzylmethylamine.yeasts were isolated from 12 cases of oral precancerous lesions (leukoplakia and erythroleukoplakia) by sampling the lesion as well as normal mucosa of each patient, yielding 21 strains of candida albicans belonging to 15 biotypes, two strains of c. tropicalis, one strain of c. parapsilosis and two strains of torulopsis glabrata. biopsies were obtained from the lesions for histologic examination. the catalytic potential of the yeast strains to form n-nitrosobenzylmethylamine (nbma) from the prec ...19873652390
characterization of a soluble carnitine acetyltransferase from candida tropicalis.carnitine acetyltransferase was purified from the cytoplasmic fraction of candida tropicalis grown on alkanes in continuous culture. by ion-exchange chromatography the enzyme was resolved in two fractions with the same specific activity of 80 u/mg. the molecular mass of both enzyme forms, determined by non-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, was 540 kda. after sds electrophoresis only one band of 64 kda was detected indicating that both enzymes are oligomers each containing eight subunits. ...19873665918
synthesis and antimycotic activity of some benzyloxyimino compounds.some benzyloxyimio compounds, related to oxiconazole and having a 1h-indole or 1h-benzimidazole moiety, have been synthesized and tested in vitro for their antimycotic activity against candida tropicalis and c. albicans. the most active was showed to be 0-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-1-benzyl-5-nitro-1h-benzimidazole-2-carboxaldehyd e oxime (mic: 25 micrograms/ml against both microorganisms). a structural feature important for the biological activity of the series appears to be presence of a benzimidazo ...19873671457
nosocomial fungemia in a large community teaching hospital.this report reviews 48 episodes of hospital-acquired fungemia that occurred over a four-year period at a large community teaching hospital. the incidence of hospital-acquired fungemia increased eightfold during the study period. candida albicans (58%), candida tropicalis (25%), and candida parapsilosis (15%) were the most common fungal pathogens isolated from blood cultures. twenty-one patients (44%) had concomitant bacteremia. intravascular catheters (100%), antibiotic administration (98%), uri ...19873689063
catalase gene of the yeast candida tropicalis. sequence analysis and comparison with peroxisomal and cytosolic catalases from other sources.a clone harbouring the genomic dna sequence for the peroxisomal catalase of an n-alkane-utilizable yeast, candida tropicalis, has been isolated by the hybrid-selection method and confirmed with a probe of catalase partial cdna. nucleotide sequence analysis of the cloned dna disclosed that the gene fragment coding for catalase had a length of 1455 base pairs (corresponding to 485 amino acids; m = 54937 da), and that the size of this enzyme was the smallest among all catalases reported hitherto. n ...19873691514
peroxisomal acyl-coenzyme a oxidase multigene family of the yeast candida tropicalis; nucleotide sequence of a third gene and its protein product.we have determined the complete nucleotide sequence of gene pox2, which encodes one of the major peroxisomal polypeptides (pxps) of candida tropicalis. pox2 is linked to gene pox4, which codes for a subunit (pxp-4) of long-chain acyl-coa oxidase. southern blot analysis revealed that pox2 had a significant homology to pox4, and also to gene pox5 which encodes a subunit (pxp-5) of the isozyme of acyl-coa oxidase. pxp-2, the protein product of pox2, was co-purified with pxp-4 from the isolated pero ...19873692174
[process of candida tropicalis adaptation to l-arabinose].when biotin (an essential growth factor) is removed from the mineral rieder medium, a mutation process is induced, particularly, if a nutrition source (glucose) is present in the medium. hence, a mutation process can be induced under the conditions of an unbalanced 'organism--medium' system.19863702778

[effect of pancreatic dnase on the nuclear dna topology of candida tropicalis yeasts].it has been shown that pancreatic dnaase added to the nutritious medium caused the change in the nuclear dna topology of asporogenic candida tropicalis yeast. dna conformative changes are due to the unwinding of supertwisted molecules as a result of single-strand ruptures formation which induce dna synthesis acceleration, cell growth and division.19863708027
purification of peroxisomal malate synthase from alkane-grown candida tropicalis and some properties of the purified enzyme.malate synthase, one of the key enzymes in the glyoxylate cycle, was purified from peroxisomes of alkane-grown yeast, candida tropicalis. the enzyme was mainly localized in the matrix of peroxisomes, judging from subcellular fractionation followed by exposure of the organelles to hypotonic conditions. the molecular mass of this peroxisomal malate synthase was determined to be 250,000 daltons by gel filtration on a sepharose 6b column as well as by ultracentrifugation. on sodium dodecylsulfate/po ...19863718151
[biosynthesis of the polyene antibiotic levorin and the membrane composition of streptomyces levoris].changes in the composition of streptomyces levoris membranes were studied in the course of the polyene antibiotic levorin biosynthesis when the process was stimulated by candida tropicalis metabolites and inhibited by inorganic phosphate. in the presence of stimulating compounds, the percentage of membranes increased in s. levoris cells and the membrane composition changed: the protein-to-lipid ratio and the concentration of total phosphorus decreased while the content of carbohydrates increased ...19863724563
[nature of the stimulating substances found in the vital activity products of yeastlike fungi].the cultural broth of candida tropicalis was shown to contain an active compound which stimulated the synthesis of levorin, a polyene antibiotic succinic acid was found to stimulate the antibiotic synthesis. the stimulating effect of the active compound increased in proportion to the content of succinic acid in it and became maximal at the same concentration of succinic acid as in a pure preparation. however, succinic acid was not an only compound responsible for the elevated synthesis of the an ...19863724564
antifungal activity of ketoconazole with emphasis on zoophilic fungal pathogens.the antifungal activity of ketoconazole was studied against fungal pathogens associated with various mycotic infections in animals. a concentration of 10 micrograms of ketoconazole/ml of medium proved fungicidal to trichophyton verrucosum. the same concentration acted as a strong fungistat against the majority of the tested dermatophytes. yeasts were generally more sensitive than yeast-like pathogens. ketoconazole also proved fungicidal against pityrosporon canis and strongly inhibitory on crypt ...19863729122
topical flucytosine therapy for chronic recurrent candida tropicalis infections.forty-one women with a culture-proven diagnosis of candida tropicalis were treated with miconazole or clotrimazole cream topically or ketoconazole orally. in 15 patients the infection recurred or remained uncured. five-fluorocytosine was compounded into a topical vaginal cream and applied nightly for seven nights. in 14 of the 15 patients the infection disappeared. one patient remains uncured.19863772900
degradation of phenolic compounds by the yeast candida tropicalis hp 15. ii. some properties of the first two enzymes of the degradation pathway.the first two enzymes of the phenol degradation pathway were determined and characterized in crude extracts from candida tropicalis hp 15. the phenol hydroxylase (ec 1.14.13.7) was a stable nadph2- and fad-dependent enzyme with a ph-optimum of 7.6 to 8.0 and a broad substrate specificity. influence of ultrasound rapidly reduced the enzyme activity. the catechol 1,2-oxygenase (ec 1.13.1.1) had a broad ph-optimum between 7.5 and 9.6 and a limited substrate specificity. two active protein bands ind ...19863783431
the distinction of different types of cytochromes p-450 from the yeasts candida tropicalis and saccharomyces uvarum.the distinction between two types of cytochromes p-450 originating from microsomes of candida tropicalis grown on glucose and on alkane was achieved. criteria of differentiation between these two cytochrome p-450 forms were based on the characteristics of reduced carbon monoxide difference spectra, on substrate specificity, and on binding and inhibition kinetics of the fungistatic compound propiconazole. one cytochrome p-450 form catalyzed the 14 alpha-demethylation of lanosterol and bound propi ...19863789734
