Pseudomonas aeruginosa MdaB and WrbA are water-soluble two-electron quinone oxidoreductases with the potential to defend against oxidative stress.
-
Purified PA2580 reduces quinones by two-electron transfer; overexpression protects a katA mutant, but not wild type, against H2O2.
"in a katA mutant, H2O2 challenged strains over-expressing the WrbA and MdaB orthologs grew significantly better than the empty plasmid control."
An NADPH quinone reductase of Helicobacter pylori plays an important role in oxidative stress resistance and host colonization.
-
H. pylori mdaB mutant is sensitive to oxygen, peroxides and paraquat; the enzyme is an NADPH-preferring two-electron quinone reductase.
"The mdaB mutant is also more sensitive to H(2)O(2), organic hydroperoxides, and the superoxide-generating agent paraquat."
The NADPH quinone reductase MdaB confers oxidative stress resistance to Helicobacter hepaticus.
