Summary The effect on translational fidelity of a particular mutation in the gene coding for protein S5 (rpxE) has been investigated. This mutation has the opposite effect of a restrictive strA mutation; in vivo, it relieves the restriction imposed by strA on the suppression of T4 nonsense mutants and results in hypersensitivity to streptomycin; in vitro, the presence of the altered S5 protein in 30S ribosomes results in increased intrinsic misreading. It is concluded that this mutation, ramC319, acts as a ribosomal ambiguity mutation similar to certain mutations of protein S4 (ramA). 相似文献

A spontaneous mutant of Escherichia coli (strain AB2847), selected for resistance to the aminoglycoside antibiotic neamine, shows severe restriction of amber suppressors in vivo. Ribosomes isolated from the mutant exhibit only low misreading in vitro in the presence of the antibiotic. Genetic and biochemical analyses indicate that the neamine-resistant phenotype is the result of two distinct mutations. The first, res3128, appears to affect the gene (strA) coding for the ribosomal protein S12. Although it leads to a restrictive phenotype it does not, however, confer resistance to streptomycin. The second mutation, X3128, is located between the sirA and AROB loci and is lethal when segregated from the res3128 mutation. It may affect the ribosome at the level of a post-translational modification. 相似文献

Streptomycin, an antibiotic used against microbial infections, inhibits the protein synthesis by binding to ribosomal protein S12, encoded by rpsL12 gene, and associated mutations cause streptomycin resistance. A streptomycin resistant, Lysinibacillus sphaericus DSLS5 (MIC >300 µg/mL for streptomycin), was isolated from a marine sponge (Tedania anhelans). The characterisation of rpsL12 gene showed a region having similarity to long terminal repeat sequences of murine lukemia virus which added 13 amino acids for loop formation in RpsL12; in addition, a K56R mutation which corresponds to K43R mutation present in streptomycin-resistant Escherichia coli is also present. The RpsL12 protein was modelled and compared with that of Lysinibacillus boronitolerans, Escherichia coli and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The modelled proteins docked with streptomycin indicate compound had less affinity. The effect of loop on streptomycin resistance was analysed by constructing three different models of RpsL12 by, (i) removing both loop and mutation, (ii) removing the loop alone while retaining the mutation and (iii) without mutation having loop. The results showed that the presence of loop causes streptomycin resistance (decreases the affinity), and it further enhanced in the presence of mutation at 56th codon. Further study will help in understanding the evolution of streptomycin resistance in organisms. 相似文献

Modulation of 16S rRNA function by ribosomal protein S12 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Ribosomal protein S12 is a critical component of the decoding center of the 30S ribosomal subunit and is involved in both tRNA selection and the response to streptomycin. We have investigated the interplay between S12 and some of the surrounding 16S rRNA residues by examining the phenotypes of double-mutant ribosomes in strains of Escherichia coli carrying deletions in all chromosomal rrn operons and expressing total rRNA from a single plasmid-borne rrn operon. We show that the combination of S12 and otherwise benign mutations at positions C1409-G1491 in 16S rRNA severely compromises cell growth while the level and range of aminoglycoside resistances conferred by the G1491U/C substitutions is markedly increased by a mutant S12 protein. The G1491U/C mutations in addition confer resistance to the unrelated antibiotic, capreomycin. S12 also interacts with the 912 region of 16S rRNA. Genetic selection of suppressors of streptomycin dependence caused by mutations at proline 90 in S12 yielded a C912U substitution in 16S rRNA. The C912U mutation on its own confers resistance to streptomycin and restricts miscoding, properties that distinguish it from a majority of the previously described error-promoting ram mutants that also reverse streptomycin dependence. 相似文献

Compensatory adaptation to the deleterious effect of antibiotic resistance in Salmonella typhimurium
Most chromosomal mutations that cause antibiotic resistance impose fitness costs on the bacteria. This biological cost can often be reduced by compensatory mutations. In Salmonella typhimurium, the nucleotide substitution AAA42 --> AAC in the rpsL gene confers resistance to streptomycin. The resulting amino acid substitution (K42N) in ribosomal protein S12 causes an increased rate of ribosomal proofreading and, as a result, the rate of protein synthesis, bacterial growth and virulence are decreased. Eighty-one independent lineages of the low-fitness, K42N mutant were evolved in the absence of antibiotic to ameliorate the costs. From the rate of fixation of compensated mutants and their fitness, the rate of compensatory mutations was estimated to be > or = 10-7 per cell per generation. The size of the population bottleneck during evolution affected fitness of the adapted mutants: a larger bottleneck resulted in higher average fitness. Only four of the evolved lineages contained streptomycin-sensitive revertants. The remaining 77 lineages contained mutants that were still fully streptomycin resistant, had retained the original resistance mutation and also acquired compensatory mutations. Most of the compensatory mutations, resulting in at least 35 different amino acid substitutions, were novel single-nucleotide substitutions in the rpsD, rpsE, rpsL or rplS genes encoding the ribosomal proteins S4, S5, S12 and L19 respectively. Our results show that the deleterious effects of a resistance mutation can be compensated by an unexpected variety of mutations. 相似文献

Certain rpsL (which encodes the ribosomal protein S12) mutations that confer resistance to streptomycin markedly activate the production of antibiotics in Streptomyces spp. These rpsL mutations are known to be located in the two conserved regions within the S12 protein. To understand the roles of these two regions in the activation of silent genes, we used site-directed mutagenesis to generate eight novel mutations in addition to an already known (K88E) mutation that is capable of activating antibiotic production in Streptomyces lividans. Of these mutants, two (L90K and R94G) activated antibiotic production much more than the K88E mutant. Neither the L90K nor the R94G mutation conferred an increase in the level of resistance to streptomycin and paromomycin. Our results demonstrate the efficacy of the site-directed mutagenesis technique for strain improvement. 相似文献

Summary Mutations at seven recombinationally distinct chloroplast loci confer antibiotic resistance on chloroplast ribosomes of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Assays of polynucleotide-directed amino acid incorporation by ribosomes reconstituted from mutant and wild type subunits demonstrate that streptomycin, neamine/kanamycin and spectinomycin resistance mutations specifically affect the small ribosomal subunit, whereas mutations to erythromycin resistance affect the large subunit. Although in each case the subunit site of antibiotic resistance is the same as that observed in analogous mutations in Escherichia coli, the number of loci conferring resistance to a given antibiotic differs in the two organisms. We have previously shown that streptomycin resistance mutations in Chlamydomonas map at five discrete loci (one nuclear and four chloroplast), and that mutations to neamine/kanamycin and spectinomycin resistance appear to define a single chloroplast locus. Results presented here confirm our previous report that all chloroplast erythromycin resistance mutations isolated to date fall into two recombinationally distinct loci, and indicate that mutants at one of these loci may be further divided on the basis of their level of cross resistance to other macrolide antibiotics. 相似文献

A mutant of Escherichia coli strain K12S, neaR301, resistant to the antibiotic neamine was found to have an altered 30 S ribosomal protein S17. The modification involves a change in the electrophoretic mobility of this protein. S17 proteins wore purified from the mutant and the parental strain, respectively, and the amino acid compositions of all tryptic peptides were compared. The results show that the mutational alteration involves a replacement of histidine by proline in peptide T8 from mutant neaR301. The amino acid replacement is located at position 30 of the S17 protein chain. We conclude, therefore, that the mutation neaR301 affects the structural gene for protein S17 (rps Q). 相似文献

Streptomycin was the first antibiotic used for the treatment of tuberculosis by inhibiting translational proof reading. Point mutation in gidB gene encoding S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-dependent 7-methylguanosine (m7G) methyltransferase required for methylation of 16S rRNA confers streptomycin resistance. As there was no structural substantiation experimentally, gidB protein model was built by threading algorithm. In this work, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations coupled with binding free energy calculations were performed to outline the mechanism underlying high-level streptomycin resistance associated with three novel missense mutants including S70R, T146M, and R187M. Results from dynamics analyses suggested that the structure distortion in the binding pocket of gidB mutants modulate SAM binding affinity. At the structural level, these conformational changes bring substantial decrease in the number of residues involved in hydrogen bonding and dramatically reduce thermodynamic stability of mutant gidB–SAM complexes. The outcome of comparative analysis of the MD simulation trajectories revealed lower conformational stability associated with higher flexibility in mutants relative to the wild-type, turns to be major factor driving the emergence of drug resistance toward antibiotic. This study will pave way toward design and development of resistant defiant gidB inhibitors as potent anti-TB agents. 相似文献

Summary Revertants from streptomycin dependence to independence were isolated as single step mutants from six different streptomycin dependent strains. The ribosomal proteins from 100 such mutants were analyzed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and some of them were also examined by immunological techniques. Altered proteins were found in 40 mutants, 24 in protein S4 and 16 in protein S5. No change in any other protein was detected.Altered S5 proteins migrated into five different positions on the polyacrylamide plate and it can be concluded that the mutant proteins differ from the wild type probably by single amino acid replacements. The altered S4 proteins migrated into 17 different positions on the plate. Extensive changes of length, both shorter and longer than wild type S4 protein, are postulated for many of the mutant S4 proteins.Analysis of the ribosomal proteins of four ram mutants revealed altered S4 protein in two of them. The alterations in these mutant proteins are probably very similar to those found in streptomycin independent mutants.Among the revertants there was no apparent correlation between the protein alteration and the particular response to streptomycin.These studies suggest a strong interaction between protein S12, which confers streptomycin dependence, and protein S4 or S5, which can suppress this dependence.Paper No. 60 on Ribosomal Proteins.

Summary Chloroplast gene mutations which confer antibiotic resistance on chloroplast ribosomes of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been tested for allelism and mapped by recombination analysis of progeny from biparental zygote clones. Thirty-one independently isolated streptomycin resistant mutants have chloroplast ribosomes which are resistant to this drug in an assay based on misreading of isoleucine in response to a poly U template, and comprise one nuclear and four chloroplast gene loci. Four mutants resistant to spectinomycin, and three mutants resistant to neamine and kanamycin, which have chloroplast ribosomes resistant to their respective antibiotics in poly U directed phenylalanine incorporation, appear to map in a single chloroplast gene locus. Representative alleles of this nr/spr locus, the four streptomycin resistance loci, and two chloroplast gene loci for erythromycin resistance, have been analyzed in a series of parallel crosses to establish the following map order for these seven genes in the chloroplast genome: er-u-la-er-u-37-nr-u-2-1/spr-u-1-H-4-sr-u-2-23-sr-u-2-60-sr-u-sm3-sr-u-sm2. These seven genes may constitute a ribosomal region within the chloroplast genome of Chlamydomonas comparable to the ribosomal gene clusters in bacteria. 相似文献

Ribosomal protein S12 plays key roles in the ribosome’s response to the error-promoting antibiotic streptomycin and in modulating the accuracy of translation. The discovery that substitutions at His76 in S12, distant from the streptomycin binding site, conferred streptomycin resistance in the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus prompted us to make similar alterations in the S12 protein of Escherichia coli. While, none of the E. coli S12 mutations confers streptomycin resistance, they all have distinct effects on the accuracy of translation. In addition, a subset of the S12 alterations renders the cells hypersensitive to fusidic acid, an inhibitor of the translocation step of translation. These results indicate that the His 76 region of ribosomal protein S12 plays key roles in tRNA selection and translocation steps of protein synthesis, consistent with its interaction with elongation factors EF-Tu and EF-G, as deduced from structural studies of ribosomal complexes. 相似文献

Mutants, resistant to neamine and spectinomycin, have been isolated from S. typhimurium and S. dublin highly virulent strains. The neamine-resistant mutants can be divided into 3 classes in accordance with their sensitivity to streptomycin: sensitive, resistant to low and high concentrations of this antibiotic. The transduction analysis with the use of bacteriophage P 22 has revealed that the spectinomycin-resistant mutations under study are spc A mutations, while the mutations leading to resistance to neamine in class Near Strr 500 are nea B mutations. The mutation leading to resistance to spectinomycin (spc A) has been found to produce no changes in the virulence of salmonellae in the intraperitoneal infection of mice. The mutations leading to resistance to neamine and streptomycin (nea B and str A) have been found to decrease virulence. 相似文献

The genetic analysis of attenuated mutants, class Nea(r) Str(s), with the use of bacteriophage P 22 has shown that mutation rendering the mutants resistant to neamine is localized in gene nea A. In experiments with the intraperitoneal infection of mice, the appearance of this mutation in S. typhimurium and S. dublin virulent strains has been found to lead to the decrease of virulence in 100% of clones. On the basis of the data obtained in this investigation, region str-spc in S. typhimurium and S. dublin has been mapped. In contrast to mutation spc A, mutations nea A and str A have been shown to inhibit the action of amber suppressor. The investigation has confirmed the regularity, previously established for Shigella flexneri, concerning the relationship between the influence of mutations, occurring in the genes which determine resistance to neamine and streptomycin and control the synthesis of ribosomal proteins S4, S5, S12 and S17, on the virulence of S. typhimurium and S. dublin and the effect of these mutations on the accuracy of the translation of genetic information in the biosynthesis of protein: mutation spc A has been found to produce no changes in the virulence of salmonellae, while mutations nea A and str A cause its loss. Salmonella strains carrying mutations nea A and nea B have shown pronounced protective properties in experiments on mice. 相似文献

Mutants resistant to streptomycin, spectinomycin, neamine/kanamycin and erythromycin define eight genetic loci in a linear linkage group corresponding to about 21 kb of the circular chloroplast genome of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. With one exception, all of these mutants represent single base-pair changes in conserved regions of the genes encoding the 16S and 23S chloroplast ribosomal RNAs. Streptomycin resistance can result from changes at the bases equivalent to Escherichia coli 13, 523, and 912-915 in the 16S gene, or from mutations in the rps12 gene encoding chloroplast ribosomal protein S12. In the 912-915 region of the 16S gene, three mutations were identified that resulted in different levels of streptomycin resistance in vitro. Although the three regions of the 16S rRNA mutable to streptomycin resistance are widely separated in the primary sequence, studies by other laboratories of RNA secondary structure and protein cross-linking suggest that all three regions are involved in a common ribosomal neighborhood that interacts with ribosomal proteins S4, S5 and S12. Three different changes within a conserved region of the 16S gene, equivalent to E. coli bases 1191-1193, confer varying levels of spectinomycin resistance, while resistance to neamine and kanamycin results from mutations in the 16S gene at bases equivalent to E. coli 1408 and 1409. Five mutations in two genetically distinct erythromycin resistance loci map in the 23S rDNA of C. reinhardtii, at positions equivalent to E. coli 2057-2058 and 2611, corresponding to the rib3 and rib2 loci of yeast mitochondria respectively. Although all five mutants are highly resistant to erythromycin, they differ in levels of cross-resistance to lincomycin and clindamycin. The order and spacing of all these mutations in the physical map are entirely consistent with our genetic map of the same loci and thereby validate the zygote clone method of analysis used to generate this map. These results are discussed in comparison with other published maps of chloroplast genes based on analysis by different methods using many of the same mutants. 相似文献

Ribosomal protein S12 plays a pivotal role in decoding functions on the ribosome. X-ray crystallographic analyses of ribosomal complexes have revealed that S12 is involved in the inspection of codon-anticodon pairings in the ribosomal A site, as well as in the succeeding domain rearrangements of the 30S subunit that are essential for accommodation of aminoacyl-tRNA. A role for S12 in tRNA selection is also well supported by classical genetic analyses; mutations affecting S12 are readily isolated in bacteria and organelles, since specific alterations in S12 confer resistance to the error-inducing antibiotic streptomycin, and the ribosomes from many such streptomycin-resistant S12 mutants display decreased levels of miscoding. However, substitutions that confer resistance to streptomycin likely represent a very distinct class of all possible S12 mutants. Until recently, the technical difficulties in generating random, unselectable mutations in essential genes in complex operons have generally precluded the analysis of other classes of S12 alterations. Using a recombineering approach, we have targeted the Escherichia coli rpsL gene, encoding S12, for random mutagenesis and screened the resulting mutants for effects on decoding fidelity. We have recovered over 40 different substitutions located throughout the S12 protein that alter the accuracy of translation without substantially affecting the sensitivity to streptomycin. Moreover, this collection includes mutants that promote miscoding, as well as those that restrict decoding errors. These results affirm the importance of S12 in decoding processes and indicate that alterations in this essential protein can have diverse effects on the accuracy of decoding. 相似文献

Pleiotropic effects resulting from mutations in genes for ribosomal proteins: analysis of revertants from streptomycin dependence 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In order to study the functions of the individual ribosomal proteins and their interaction, a group of revertants from streptomycin dependence to independence was analyzed. Reversion from dependence resulted from a number of different mutational events, all resulting in altered ribosome function. The mutants selected for study exhibited extensive pleiotropy—in addition to the elimination of the requirement for streptomycin for growth, the strains differed from the dependent parent and each other in growth rate, level of streptomycin resistance, effect of antibiotics on viability, rate of subunit assembly in vivo, affinity of isolated ribosomes for streptomycin and functionality of ribosomes in various cell-free assays.There appear to be strong correlations between the level of resistance to streptomycin in growing cells and the ability of the isolated ribosomes to bind streptomycin, the effect of antibiotic on cell-free protein synthesis programmed with natural message (but not poly(U)) and the degree of translational fidelity. There seems to be no relation between level of antibiotic resistance and the overall growth rate, the presence of a defect in ribosome assembly or the ribosomal protein altered by the mutation. Mutations in genes for 30 S proteins S4 and S5 can result in the same phenotype, while different changes in S4 in otherwise isogenic strains result in widely varying phenotypes.The wide variety of effects resulting from single mutational events suggests that each of these changes in a ribosomal protein changes the conformation of the ribosome or its ability to undergo configurational changes. 相似文献

A RelC deletion mutant, KO-100, of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) has been isolated from a collection of spontaneous thiostrepton-resistant mutants. KO-100 grows as vigorously as the
parent strain and possesses a 6-bp deletion within the rplK, previously termed relC. When the wild-type rplK gene was propagated on a low-copy-number vector in mutant KO-100, the ability to produce ppGpp, actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin,
which had been lost in the RelC mutant, was completely restored. Allele replacement by gene homogenotization demonstrated
that the RelC mutation is responsible for the resistance to thiostrepton and the inactivation of ppGpp, actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin
production. Western blotting showed that ribosomes from the RelC mutant KO-100 contain only one-eighth the amount of L11 protein
found in ribosomes of the parent strain. The impairment of antibiotic production in KO-100 could be rescued by the introduction
of mutations that confer resistance to streptomycin (str), which result in alteration of Lys-88 in ribosomal protein S12 to Glu or Arg. No accompanying restoration of ppGpp synthesis
was detected in these RelC str double mutants.

Escherichia coli mutants with alterations in the electrophoretic mobility of ribosomal protein S9 were used to locate rpsI, the gene for this protein, on the linkage map. rpsI was located at about 70 min, roughly halfway between argG and fabE. It was very close to the gene for ribosomal protein L13, rplM. Another mutation at the rpsI locus gave rise to a phenotype of kasugamycin dependence and resistance. In this mutant, dependence on antibiotic came from kasugamycin being necessary to slow the rate of protein synthesis. 相似文献
