We isolated a bacterial isolate (F7) from potable water. The strain was identified as Mesorhizobium sp. by 16S rDNA gene phylogenetic analysis and screened for N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) production by an AHL biosensor. The AHL profile of the isolate was further analyzed using high resolution triple quadrupole liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS) which confirmed the production of multiple AHLs, namely, N-3-oxo-octanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C8-HSL) and N-3-oxo-decanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C10-HSL). These findings will open the perspective to study the function of these AHLs in plant-microbe interactions.
我们从饮用水中分离出一株细菌菌株(F7)。通过16S rDNA基因系统发育分析,该菌株被鉴定为中生根瘤菌属,并利用AHL生物传感器筛选其N-酰基高丝氨酸内酯(AHL)的产生情况。使用高分辨率三重四极杆液相色谱质谱联用仪(LC/MS)进一步分析该分离株的AHL图谱,证实其产生了多种AHL,即N-3-氧代辛酰-L-高丝氨酸内酯(3-氧代-C8-HSL)和N-3-氧代癸酰-L-高丝氨酸内酯(3-氧代-C10-HSL)。这些发现将为研究这些AHL在植物-微生物相互作用中的功能开辟前景。
