Maleylacetate reductase from Trichosporon cutaneum.

ABSTRACT: The enzyme catalysing the reduction of maleylacetate to 3-oxoadipate was purified 150-fold from Trichosporon cutaneum, induced for aromatic metabolisms by growth with resorcinol as a major carbon source. The enzyme separated upon electrofocusing into three species with PI values 4.6, 5.1 and 5.6. They had similar catalytic properties and the same molecular weight.

<i>Trichosporon asahii</i> and <i>Trichosporon inkin</i> Biofilms Produce Antifungal-Tolerant Persister Cells.

Project description:Persister cells are metabolically inactive dormant cells that lie within microbial biofilms. They are phenotypic variants highly tolerant to antimicrobials and, therefore, associated with recalcitrant infections. In the present study, we investigated if Trichosporon asahii and T. inkin are able to produce persister cells. Trichosporon spp. are ubiquitous fungi, commonly found as commensals of the human skin and gut microbiota, and have been increasingly reported as agents of fungemia in immunocompromised patients. Biofilms derived from clinical strains of T asahii (n=5) and T. inkin (n=7) were formed in flat-bottomed microtiter plates and incubated at 35°C for 48 h, treated with 100 μg/ml amphotericin B (AMB) and incubated at 35°C for additional 24 h. Biofilms were scraped from the wells and persister cells were assayed for susceptibility to AMB. Additionally, we investigated if these persister cells were able to generate new biofilms and studied their ultrastructure and AMB susceptibility. Persister cells were detected in both T asahii and T. inkin biofilms and showed tolerance to high doses of AMB (up to 256 times higher than the minimum inhibitory concentration). Persister cells were able to generate biofilms, however they presented reduced biomass and metabolic activity, and reduced tolerance to AMB, in comparison to biofilm growth control. The present study describes the occurrence of persister cells in Trichosporon spp. and suggests their role in the reduced AMB susceptibility of T. asahii and T. inkin biofilms.
