Product Description
Extracellular death factor (EDF) is the only single signaling molecule involved in quorum sensing in Escherichia coli and can initiate mazef-mediated cell death. Extracellular death factor can significantly enhance the endoribonuclease activities of MazF and ChpBK.
Extracellular Death Factor (CAS#: 960129-66-2) is a peptide signaling molecule involved in bacterial cell death and biofilm regulation. It is part of the bacterial quorum sensing system that mediates programmed cell death in response to environmental stress. Extracellular Death Factor plays a role in the regulation of bacterial persistence, antibiotic tolerance, and biofilm formation. It is used as a research tool to study bacterial physiology and antibiotic resistance mechanisms.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Extracellular Death Factor targets bacterial signaling pathways involved in cell death and stress responses. It is a component of the quorum sensing system that regulates programmed cell death in bacteria. The factor interacts with specific receptors or signaling molecules to trigger cell death pathways. Its targets are typically bacterial proteins involved in toxin-antitoxin systems, stress response, or biofilm regulation.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Extracellular Death Factor is used to study bacterial cell death, persistence, and biofilm formation. The peptide is added to bacterial cultures to induce cell death or stress responses. Its effects are measured by assessing bacterial viability (CFU counts, live/dead staining), biofilm formation (crystal violet staining), and expression of stress response genes (qPCR, RNA-seq). The peptide is studied in various bacterial species to understand its mechanism and physiological role.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Extracellular Death Factor is studied in the context of bacterial infections and host-pathogen interactions. The peptide may play a role in bacterial pathogenesis by regulating cell death and persistence during infection. In animal models, the factor's effects on bacterial survival, virulence, and antibiotic tolerance can be assessed. However, specific published in vivo data for this compound are limited.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro binding assays for Extracellular Death Factor involve identifying its molecular targets in bacteria. The peptide's interaction with bacterial proteins is studied using pull-down assays, co-immunoprecipitation, or surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Binding partners are identified by mass spectrometry. The peptide's effects on target protein function are assessed by enzymatic assays or protein interaction studies.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Extracellular Death Factor use bacterial cultures of various species. Bacteria are grown to appropriate densities and treated with the peptide at various concentrations. Cell viability is assessed by colony counting, OD600 measurements, or flow cytometry with live/dead staining. Biofilm formation is measured by crystal violet staining of adherent cells. Gene expression changes are analyzed by qPCR or RNA-seq. Persister cell formation is assessed by antibiotic tolerance assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Extracellular Death Factor would typically use mouse models of bacterial infection. The peptide may be administered to infected animals to assess its effects on bacterial burden, disease progression, and antibiotic efficacy. Alternatively, mutant bacteria lacking the factor may be compared to wild-type in infection models. Specific published in vivo data are limited.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Extracellular Death Factor are not well-characterized. As a peptide signaling molecule, it is expected to have rapid turnover in biological systems. The factor is produced by bacteria and acts locally in the bacterial community. For research applications, it is typically used in vitro in bacterial culture systems. Detailed PK parameters would require experimental determination.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity data for Extracellular Death Factor are limited as it is a research peptide. The factor is a bacterial signaling molecule and is generally studied in bacterial systems rather than mammalian systems. Standard laboratory safety precautions for handling bacterial products apply. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic or diagnostic use.
Additional Infomation
Extracellular Death Factor is a bacterial peptide signaling molecule involved in quorum sensing, programmed cell death, and biofilm regulation. It plays a role in bacterial persistence and antibiotic tolerance. The factor is used as a research tool to study bacterial physiology, stress responses, and the development of novel antibacterial strategies targeting bacterial communication systems. It is for research use only.
