title: [POSSIBILITIES OF APPLICATION OF MALDI-TOF MASS-SPECTROMETRY FOR STUDY OF CARBOHYDRATE-SPECIFIC RECEPTORS FOR DIAGNOSTIC BACTERIOPHAGE EL TOR].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Study mechanisms of interaction of diagnostic bacteriophage El Tor with sensitive strain Vibrio cholerae El Tor 18507 using direct protein profiling, identification of constant and variable proteins, taking part in interaction of the phage and cell, as well as carbohydrate-specific phage receptors.
  
  
  METHODS
  . A commercial preparation of cholera diagnostic bacteriophage El Tor, strain V. cholerae El Tor 18507 were used. Effect of carbohydrates on bacteriophage activity was determined in experiments with phage by a classic and modified by us method. Protein profiles of the studied objects were studied using MSP-analysis method.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Sucrose was shown to inhibit lytic activity of bacteriophage. Proteome profiles of El Tor bacteriophage and sensitive indicator strains were studied, identification of constant and variable proteins of the studied objects by MSP Peak-list program was carried out.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Analysis of changes of profiles of phage and microbial cell during interaction with sucrose gave a basis for assuming, that sucrose in the mixture of culture-phage enters interaction namely with phage protein receptors, blocking receptors specific for cholera vibrio, that subsequently manifests in a sharp decrease of phage activity against the sensitive strain.
