Descrizione generale

Ectoine is a natural cyclic tetrahydropyrimidine, which is a low molecular weight, water-binding and organic osmolyte. It is a part of a class of small molecule chaperones (SMCs).

Azioni biochim/fisiol

Ectoine acts as an osmoprotectant in a wide variety of microorganisms including heterotrophic, halophilic bacteria and non-halophilic bacteria such as Streptomyces species and E.coli. This compatible solute exhibit protective effects in E.coli during drying and storage. Ectoine is implicated in protein and lipid bilayer stabilization. It also regulates the preservation of turgor pressure and ameliorates desiccation stress. It may be used to treat inflammatory diseases such as, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Ectoine can cause DNA structural changes in vitro and protects DNA from ionizing radiation (IR). It prevents insulin amyloid formation in vitro.

We have performed Molecular Dynamics simulations of ectoine, hydroxyectoine and urea in explicit solvent. Special attention has been spent on the local surrounding structure of water molecules. Our results indicate that ectoine and hydroxyectoine are able to accumulate more water

The protective properties of ectoine, formerly described for only extremophilic microorganisms, can be transferred to human skin. Our present data show that the compatible solute ectoine protects the cellular membrane from damage caused by surfactants. Transepidermal water loss measurements in

Cellular response during the freeze-thaw process strongly affects the cryopreservation outcome including cell morphology and cell viability. Cryomicroscopy was used to individually analyze the osmotic response of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs) during slow cooling (1 °C/min) to -60

Mycobacterium smegmatis is a commonly used mycobacterial model system. Here, we show that M. smegmatis protects itself against elevated salinity by synthesizing ectoine and hydroxyectoine and characterize the phenotype of a nonproducing mutant. This is the first analysis of M.
