Potential roles for DNA replication and repair functions in cell killing by streptomycin

Abstract: The aminoglycoside streptomycin binds to ribosomes to promote mistranslation and eventual inhibition of translation. Streptomycin kills bacteria, whereas many other non-aminoglycoside inhibitors of translation do not. Because mistranslation is now known to affect DNA replication, we asked if hydroxyurea, a specific inhibitor of DNA synthesis, affects killing, and find that hydroxyurea significantly attenuates killing by streptomycin. We find that the hydroxyl radical scavengers D-mannitol and thiourea have eit… Show more

“…CAT decomposes H 2 O 2 to form water. To clarify a possible involvement of O 2 •− , H 2 O 2 or • OH in the inhibition of cell proliferation elicited by the X/XO system, the effects of SOD, CAT, mannitol (an effective • OH scavenger ( 15 , 16 ) ) on the X/XO effect and of exogenous H 2 O 2 were examined (Fig. 2 and 3 , and Table 1 ).…”

“…We hypothesize that signals generated by streptomycin converge on comCDE through several pathways. Indeed, aminoglycosides are known to generate HS-like damage (54), while also triggering hydroxyl radical formation (61,62) and perturbing DNA replication (63).…”

“…Streptomisin uygulamasının ilaç direnci ile ilişkili özgül genlerde meydana gelen mutasyonlarla ilişkisini belirlemek için saptanan tüm mutasyonların fonksiyonel etkileri referans genom ile karşılaştırılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Fakat bu çalışmada, daha önce streptomisin direnciyle ilişkisi gösterilmiş olan ribozomal proteinlerle ilişkili genlerde (rpsD, rpsL gibi) herhangi bir mutasyon belirlenmemiştir (16)(17)(18) . Ancak, deney grubuna dâhil olan bir soy hattında, MdtH çoklu ilaç direnci proteinini (multidrug resistance protein) kodlayan mdtH geninde bir tek nükleotit mutasyonu belirlenmiştir.…”

“…Bu çalışmada, geniş spektrumlu bir antibiyotiğin (streptomisin) uzun süreli ve öldürücü olmayan dozda uygulamasının K. aerogenes`de mutasyon hızı ve spektrumuna etkisini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Streptomisin, çeşitli bakteriyel enfeksiyonların tedavisinde kullanılan aminoglikozid sınıfından geniş spektrumlu bir ilaçtır (15,16) . Gram pozitif ve Gramnegatif bakterilere karşı etkilidir.…”
