Extracellular secretion of glycolytic housekeeping enzymes in 48 strains of Edwardsiella

Abstract:

[Background] The glycolytic housekeeping enzyme can be secreted to the extracellular matrix or located on the surface of the cell membrane, which plays an important role in the infection and cell adhesion of pathogen. The study of the secretion of glycolytic housekeeping enzymes in Edwardsiella, which is an important fish pathogen, is benefit to its pathogenesis and vaccine development. [Objective] To explore the secretion of housekeeping enzymes in glycolysis of Edwardsiella. [Methods] With ELISA, five housekeeping enzymes in the extracellular proteins from 48 different strains of of Edwardsiella was investigated. [Results] Five glycolytic enzymes are widespread in the extracellular protein of 48 strains of Edwardsiella. [Conclusion] Extracellular secretion of glycolytic enzymes in Edwardsiella is a common phenomenon.
