Comparative Study of the marR Genes within the Family Enterobacteriaceae
Dan Wang,Changjiang Guo,Longjiang Gu,Xiaohui Zhang 한국미생물학회 2014 The journal of microbiology Vol.52 No.6
marR genes are members of an ancient family originallyidentified in Escherichia coli. This family is widely distributedin archaea and bacteria. Homologues of this family have aconserved winged helix fold. MarR proteins are involved innon-specific resistance systems conferring resistance to multipleantibiotics. Extensive studies have shown the importanceof MarR proteins in physiology and pathogenicity inEnterobacteria, but little is known about their origin or evolution. In this study, all the marR genes in 43 enterobacterialgenomes representing 14 genera were identified, and the phylogeneticrelationships and genetic parameters were analyzed. Several major findings were made. Three conserved marRgenes originated earlier than Enterobacteriaceae and a genelossevent was found to have taken place in Yersinia pestisAntiqua. Three functional genes, rovA, hor, and slyA, werefound to be clear orthologs among Enterobacteriaceae. Thecopy number of marR genes in Enterobacteriaceae was foundto vary from 2 to 11. These marR genes exhibited a faster rateof nucleotide substitution than housekeeping genes did. Specifically, the regions of marR domain were found to besubject to strong purifying selection. The phylogenetic relationshipand genetic parameter analyses were consistentwith conservation and specificity of marR genes. These dualcharacters helped MarR to maintain a conserved bindingmotif and variable C-terminus, which are important to adaptiveresponses to a number of external stimuli in Enterobacteriaceae.

Bacteriophage endolysin is one of the most promising antibioticsubstitutes, but in Gram-negative bacteria, the outermembrane prevents the lysin from hydrolyzing peptidoglycansand blocks the development of lysin applications. Theprime strategy for new antibiotic substitutes is allowing lysinto access the peptidoglycan from outside of the bacteria byreformation of the lysin. In this study, the novel Escherichiacoli (E. coli) phage lyase lysep3, which lacks outside-in catalyticability, was fused with the N-terminal region of theBacillus amyloliquefaciens lysin including its cell wall bindingdomain D8 through the best manner of protein fusionbased on the predicted tertiary structure of lysep3-D8 to obtainan engineered lysin that can lyse bacteria from the outside. Our results showed that lysep3-D8 could lyse both Gramnegativeand Gram-positive bacteria, whereas lysep3 and D8have no impact on bacterial growth. The MIC of lysep3-D8on E. coli CVCC1418 is 60 μg/ml; lysep3-D8 can inhibit thegrowth of bacteria up to 12 h at this concentration. The bactericidalspectrum of lysep3-D8 is broad, as it can lyse of allof 14 E. coli strains, 3 P. aeruginosa strains, 1 Acinetobacterbaumannii strain, and 1 Streptococcus strain. Lysep3-D8 hassufficient bactericidal effects on the 14 E. coli strains testedat the concentration of 100 μg/ml. The cell wall binding domainof the engineered lysin can destroy the integrity of theouter membrane of bacteria, thus allowing the catalytic domainto reach its target, peptidoglycan, to lyse the bacteria. Lysep3-D8 can be used as a preservative in fodder to benefitthe health of animals. The method we used here proved to bea successful exploration of the reformation of phage lysin.

Purpose RIOK1 has been proved to play an important role in cancer cell proliferation and migration in various types of cancers—such as colorectal and gastric cancers. However, the expression of RIOK1 in breast cancer (BC) and the relationship between RIOK1 expression and the development of BC are not well characterized. In this study, we assessed the expression of RIOK1 in BC and evaluated the mechanisms underlying its biological function in this disease context. Materials and Methods We used immunohistochemistry, western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to evaluate the expression of RIOK1 in BC patients. Then, knockdown or overexpression of RIOK1 were used to evaluate the effect on BC cells in vitro and in vivo. Finally, we predicted miR-204-5p could be a potential regulator of RIOK1. Results We found that the expression levels of RIOK1 were significantly higher in hormone receptor (HR)–negative BC patients and was associated with tumor grades (p=0.010) and p53 expression (p=0.008) and survival duration (p=0.011). Kaplan-Meier analysis suggested a tendency for the poor prognosis. In vitro, knockdown of RIOK1 could inhibit proliferation, invasion, and induced apoptosis in HR-negative BC cells and inhibited tumorigenesis in vivo, while overexpression of RIOK1 promoted HR-positive tumor progression. MiR-204-5p could regulate RIOK1 expression and be involved in BC progression. Conclusion These findings indicate that RIOK1 expression could be a biomarker of HR-negative BC, and it may serve as an effective prognostic indicator and promote BC progression.

Meningitis caused by Streptococcus suis serotype 2 (S. suis 2) is a great threat to the pig industry and human health. Virulence factors associated with the pathogenesis of meningitis have yet to be clearly defined, even though many potential S. suis 2 virulence factors have been identified. This greatly hinders the progress of S. suis 2 meningitis pathogenesis research. In this study, a co-culture blood-brain barrier (BBB) model was established using primary porcine brain microvascular endothelial cells and astrocytes, and the whole genome library of S. suis 2 was constructed using phage display technology. Finally, a total of 14 potential virulence factors contributing to S. suis 2 adherence to and invasion of the BBB were selected by analyzing the interactions between the phage library and the co-culture model. Twelve of these factors have not been previously reported in meningitis-related research. The data provide valuable insight into the pathogenesis of S. suis 2 meningitis and potential targets for the development of drug therapies.
