METHOD OF ISOLATION OF SECRETION INHIBITOR OF SIDEROPHORES SYNTHESISED BY PGMSTRAINS Y. pestis AND ISOLATED INHIBITOR Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC C07K14/195 C07K1/00 

FIELD: biotechnology.

SUBSTANCE: method of obtaining SSI comprises the following steps. The strain Yersinis pestis KM 1279 is grown on 1.5% agar LB, the bacteria are washed three times with cold buffered normal saline. The bacteria are pelleted by centrifugation, suspended in a solution of 5 mM NaOH, kept at 37°C for two hours and the cells are pelleted by centrifugation. The supernatant is selected and the procedure as repeated three times, three supernatants are combined and filtered through the nitrocellulose membrane. The filtrate is extracted three times with the mixture of chloroform-methanol-water in a ratio of 5:2:1. The chloroform fractions are separated by centrifugation, combined and freed from water-soluble impurities. The aqueous fraction is separated by centrifugation and removed, and the chloroform fraction is dried in a vacuum rotary evaporator and the dry preparation SSI is obtained. The proposed SSI is characterised with brown colouring of dry crystals, hydrophobic properties, fluorescence in ultraviolet, lipopeptide nature, the presence of iron ions, the molecular weight of 380.6 Da.

EFFECT: inventions enable to obtain the natural regulator of virulence of plague agent.
