tagD的精确缺失及其产物甘油3-磷酸胞苷转移酶的可控消耗,会导致枯草芽孢杆菌在生理温度下生长时形态不规则并裂解。

Precise deletion of tagD and controlled depletion of its product, glycerol 3-phosphate cytidylyltransferase, leads to irregular morphology and lysis of Bacillus subtilis grown at physiological temperature.

Abstract

Using a previously reported conditional expression system for use in Bacillus subtilis (A. P. Bhavsar, X. Zhao, and E. D. Brown, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 67:403-410, 2001), we report the first precise deletion of a teichoic acid biosynthesis (tag) gene, tagD, in B. subtilis. This teichoic acid mutant showed a lethal phenotype when characterized at a physiological temperature and in a defined genetic background. This tagD mutant was subject to full phenotypic rescue upon expression of the complementing copy of tagD. Depletion of the tagD gene product (glycerol 3-phosphate cytidylyltransferase) via modulated expression of tagD from the amyE locus revealed structural defects centered on shape, septation, and division. Thickening of the wall and ultimately lysis followed these events.

摘要

利用先前报道的用于枯草芽孢杆菌的条件表达系统(A. P. 巴夫萨尔、X. 赵和E. D. 布朗,《应用与环境微生物学》67:403 - 410,2001年),我们报道了枯草芽孢杆菌中首个精确缺失磷壁酸生物合成(tag)基因tagD的情况。这个磷壁酸突变体在生理温度和特定遗传背景下进行表征时表现出致死表型。当表达tagD的互补拷贝时,这个tagD突变体得到了完全的表型拯救。通过从amyE位点调节tagD的表达来消耗tagD基因产物(甘油3 - 磷酸胞苷转移酶),揭示了以形状、隔膜形成和分裂为中心的结构缺陷。这些事件之后是细胞壁增厚并最终裂解。
