Abstract
Pathogen proliferation and virulence depend on available nutrients, and these vary when the pathogen moves from outside of the host cell (extracellular) to the inside of the host cell (intracellular). Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a versatile analytical method, which lends itself for metabolic studies. In this chapter, we describe how 1H NMR can be combined with a cellular infection model to study the metabolic crosstalk between a bacterial pathogen and its host both in the extracellular and intracellular compartments. Central carbon metabolism is highlighted by using glucose labeled with the stable isotope 13C.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
