[The effect of the iron content in the culture medium on the nature of the protein spectrum in Neisseria meningitidis].
The protein spectra of Neisseria meningitidis, strain A 208, in the process of its cultivation on solid culture medium based on peptone agar under the conditions of the surplus or deficiency of ions of trivalent iron in the medium. The creation of iron deficiency by the introduction of two iron-binding admixtures, desferol and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), was found to lead to the production of two additional proteins with molecular weights of 72 kD and 36-37 kD by meningococcal cells. Of these two admixtures, DTPA more readily stimulated the production of low-molecular protein with a molecular weight of 36-37 kD. This protein was found to be noticeably labile, while protein with a molecular weight of 72-73 kD showed no such lability. As the result of the cultivation of meningococci in iron-deficient medium, the content of protein in microbial residue was 2- to 3-fold greater than that obtained by the cultivation of meningococci in culture medium with the surplus of iron in the form of ferric nitrate.
