Lactobacilli are normal constituents of the intestinal microbiota, and some strains show the capacity to bind to extracellular matrix proteins and components of the mucosal layer, which represents an adaptation to persist in this niche. A shotgun phage-display library of Lactobacillus casei BL23 was constructed and screened for peptides able to bind to fibronectin and collagen. Clones showing binding to these proteins were isolated, which encoded overlapping fragments of a putative transcriptional regulator (LCABL_29260), a hypothetical protein exclusively found in the L. casei/rhamnosus group (LCABL_01820), and a putative phage-related endolysin (LCABL_13470). The construction of different glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusions confirmed the binding activity and demonstrated that the three identified proteins could interact with fibronectin, fibrinogen, and collagen. The results illustrate the utility of phage display for the isolation of putative adhesins in lactobacilli. However, it remains to be determined whether the primary function of these proteins actually is adhesion to mucosal surfaces.
乳杆菌是肠道微生物群的正常组成部分,有些菌株显示出与细胞外基质蛋白和黏膜层成分结合的能力,这代表了它们在这个小生境中持续存在的适应能力。构建了鼠李糖乳杆菌 BL23 的随机噬菌体展示文库,并对能够与纤维连接蛋白和胶原蛋白结合的肽进行了筛选。分离出了对这些蛋白质具有结合活性的克隆,这些克隆编码了一个假定转录调节因子(LCABL_29260)、一个仅在乳杆菌/鼠李糖组中发现的假定蛋白(LCABL_01820)和一个假定噬菌体相关内溶素(LCABL_13470)的重叠片段。不同谷胱甘肽 S-转移酶(GST)融合体的构建证实了结合活性,并表明这三种鉴定出的蛋白可以与纤维连接蛋白、纤维蛋白原和胶原蛋白相互作用。这些结果说明了噬菌体展示在分离乳杆菌中假定黏附素的实用性。然而,这些蛋白的主要功能是否实际上是黏附到黏膜表面,仍有待确定。
