To obtain endolysin with impact(s) on gram-negative bacteria as well as gram-positive bacteria, N-acetylmuramyl L-alanine-amidase (MurNAc-LAA) from a -hosted Siphoviridae phage (SPP1 phage, Subtilis Phage Pavia 1) was exogenously expressed in .
The sequences of genes encoding peptidoglycan hydrolases were obtained from the Virus-Host database. The sequence of MurNAc-LAA was optimized by GenScript software to generate MurNAc-LAA-MMI (LysM2) for optimal expression in . Furthermore, the structure and function of LysM2 was evaluated . The optimized gene was synthesized, subcloned in the pET28a, and expressed in BL21(DE3). The antibacterial effects of the protein on the peptidoglycan substrates were studied.
, on 816 gene encoding a 33 protein was confirmed as specific SPP1 phage enzyme. The enzyme is composed of 271 amino acids, with a half-life of 10 in . analyses showed 34.2% alpha-helix in the secondary structure, hydrophobic N-terminal, and lysine-rich C-terminal, and no antigenic properties in LysM2 protein. This optimized endolysin revealed impacts against (sp) by turbidity, and an antibacterial activity against , and in agar diffusion assays.
Taken together, our results confirmed that LysM2 is an inhibiting agent for gram-negative bacteria.
为了获得对革兰氏阴性菌和革兰氏阳性菌均有作用的内溶素,来自宿主芽孢杆菌属的肌尾噬菌体(SPP1噬菌体,枯草芽孢杆菌噬菌体帕维亚1)的N - 乙酰胞壁酰 - L - 丙氨酸酰胺酶(MurNAc - LAA)在大肠杆菌中进行了外源表达。
从病毒 - 宿主数据库中获取编码肽聚糖水解酶的基因序列。通过金斯瑞软件对MurNAc - LAA序列进行优化,生成MurNAc - LAA - MMI(LysM2)以在大肠杆菌中实现最佳表达。此外,对LysM2的结构和功能进行了评估。合成优化后的基因,亚克隆到pET28a中,并在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中表达。研究了该蛋白对肽聚糖底物的抗菌作用。
在816个基因中,一个编码33 kDa蛋白的基因被确认为特定的SPP1噬菌体酶。该酶由271个氨基酸组成,在大肠杆菌中的半衰期为10小时。二级结构分析显示α - 螺旋占34.2%,N端疏水,C端富含赖氨酸,且LysM2蛋白无抗原性。这种优化后的内溶素通过比浊法显示对粪肠球菌(sp)有作用,并且在琼脂扩散试验中对大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌有抗菌活性。
综上所述,我们的结果证实LysM2是一种革兰氏阴性菌抑制剂。
