Abstract

The conjugative plasmid pAD1 (56.7 kilobases) in Streptococcus faecalis confers hemolysin-bacteriocin (Hly-Bcn) expression and a mating response to the sex pheromone cAD1 excreted by recipient cells. We examined the contribution of hemolysin to pathogenicity in intraperitoneally infected mice by using Tn916 and Tn917 insertion mutants altered in hemolysin expression. Strains exhibiting the normal hemolysin phenotype were significantly more virulent than the nonhemolytic insertion mutants. A mutant plasmid with an increased copy number which gave rise to a larger-than-normal zone of hemolysis on blood agar rendered host strains more virulent than the wild-type streptococci in mice.

摘要

粪肠球菌中的接合质粒pAD1(56.7千碱基)赋予溶血素-细菌素(Hly-Bcn)表达,并对受体细胞分泌的性信息素cAD1产生交配反应。我们通过使用溶血素表达发生改变的Tn916和Tn917插入突变体,研究了溶血素在腹腔感染小鼠中的致病性作用。表现出正常溶血素表型的菌株比非溶血插入突变体的毒力明显更强。在血琼脂上产生比正常更大溶血圈的高拷贝数突变质粒,使宿主菌株在小鼠中的毒力比野生型链球菌更强。
