Article Synopsis
- Changes in lipid composition help micro-organisms adapt their membrane functions to environmental stressors.
- The study focused on Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its response to UV-C stress during both mid-exponential and stationary growth phases.
- Key findings included the identification of major phospholipid fractions and an increase in unsaturated fatty acids, indicating the organism's ability to recover effectively from UV-C damage.
We examined the phospholipids (Phls) and the membrane fatty acid (FA) composition in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium dam and/or seqA mutants. Phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and cardiolipin (CL) are the major Phls present in all the strains and accounted for greater than 95% of the total lipid phosphorus. Phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine are the minor ones.
