Abstract
All bacteria can survive and adapt to different stresses, such as fluctuations in temperature, pH oxidative, and osmotic pressure occurring in their surrounding environments. This study aims to evaluate the effects of a variety of stress conditions on the growth, and proteome of Raoultella planticola PTCC 1598. R. planticola cells were exposed to different values of temperatures, sodium chloride, pH, and hydrogen peroxide stresses. Among the stress conditions, oxidative stress, upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 4000 ppm concentration was selected for proteomics analysis in detail. Approximately, 1400 spots were identified in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). Among the identified spots, 85 spots were repeatable using 2D-Platinum software and eye confirmation and, nine protein spots were differentially expressed. Among nine proteins, six proteins identified successfully with an MASCOT score greater than 40 (p < 0.05) were 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-2,3-dehydrogenase (oxidoreductase family), hypothetical protein G787-04832, periplasmic d-galactose-binding protein, uridine phosphorylase (glycosyltransferases), a single peptide match to cysteine-binding periplasmic protein, and NADP(H) nitroreductase. All identified proteins showed decreased level expression. Based on the obtained results, we concluded that hydrogen peroxide as an antiseptic compound could affect cell growth and proteomics of R. planticola. Therefore, we recommend using an antiseptic solution containing H2O2 to prevent the spread of R. planticola as a new emerging pathogen.
