细菌分类与鉴定的新热点：16S—23S rDNA间区

随着分子生物学的迅速发展,细菌的分类鉴定亦从传统的表型分类进入到各种基因型分类水平、如（G＋C）mol%、DNA杂交、rDNA指纹图、质粒图谱和16S rDNA序列分析等。rRNA存在于所有细菌中,rRNA基因由保守区和可变区组成,在细菌中高度保守。rRNA基因包含5‘端到3‘端的若干种成分,分别是16S rDNA、间区、23S rDNA、间区和 5S rDNA。16S－23S rDNA间区近年来在细菌系统发育学,特别是相近种和菌 区分和鉴定方面倍受关注。作为细菌分类和鉴定中的一个热点,本文将就16S－23S rDNA间区的一些特性及其胡细菌分类鉴定方面的作用做一简要的介绍。     

16S～23S RDNA间区在链球菌和流感嗜血杆菌分类中的应用

利用16S~23S rDNA间区（intergenic spacer regions,ISR）在不同细菌中拷贝数、碱基排列、序列长度及所含tRNA基因种类和数目的差异,对15株链球菌和流感嗜血杆菌进行属、种、型和株系的分类鉴定。在16S rDNA的3′端和23S rDNA的5′端的保守区中合成引物,PCR扩增16S~23S rDNA ISR序列,对多态片段切胶纯化直接测序。在GenBank上查找对应细菌的ISR序列。用DNAMAN软件进行系统进化分析。链球菌属为单拷贝16S~23Sr RNA ISR、有一个tRNAAla基因编码区、分子大小在269~446bp之间,序列分成4个保守区和4个可变区,可变区碱基排列方式和数目的不同是种分类的依据。7株链球菌的同源率在78%~88%。同种异株的差异反映在碱基的插入和缺失上。流感嗜血杆菌各生物型均为2个拷贝的ISR,小片段为514~519bp,编码1个tRNAGlu基因,有3个狭窄可变区。大片段富含A T碱基,在I、II和IV型中分别是868、848和856bp,编码一个tRNAIle基因和一个tRNAAla基因。不同生物型小分子ISR与标准菌株比较,同源性在97.3%~99.6 %之间。 ISR作为细菌分类的目的基因具有属、种、型和株特异性与灵敏性。简单的基因分离分析技术为认识病原微生物提供了更多的机会。Abstract:To facilitate species level identification of bacteria without the requirement of presumptive identification,the paper describes a rapid identification method of bacteria by amplification and direct sequencing 16S~23S rDNA intergenic spacer regions (ISR) of the pathogens which cause the upper respiratory tract infective disease by Streptococcus and Haemophilus.Three pairs of primer targeting conserved sequences flanking the 3′ end of 16S and the 5′end of 23S rRNA were used to amplify 16S~23S rRNA ISR of 7 streptococcus strains and 8 Haemophilus strains.The PCR products were separated by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis and the polymorphisms fragments were purified with the Wizard PCR Min-Prep Kit (Promega) and Protocol-SK131(Sangon).The nucleotide sequences of ISR inserts were determined by using the XEQTM DTCS Kit——Terminator Cycle Sequencing and a CEQTM 2000XL DNA Analysis system (Backman Coulter) automatic DAN sequencer.Then those sequences were compared with known seqnences on the GenBank.The alignment of nucleotide sequence,evolutionary distances and phylogenetic tress were analyzed by software DANMAN version 4.0.The PCR products were showed polymorphism patterns with agarose gel.One band was contained in streptococcus genus.The significant variation was found among the spacer sequences of different species in Streptococcus with the lengths of the spacer varying from 269 to 446bp.All the ISR of the streptococcal species had a tRNA Ala gene in the spacer and the sequence identities varied from 78 to 88% within genera.It was found that some spacer sequence blocks were highly conserved between operons of a genome,whereas the presence of others was variable,three regions showed significant spatial variation.Most of the differences between the sequences came from several bases insertions/deletions and substitutions.There are two major bands in the Haemophilus biotypes(515 and 884bp),the small ISR amplicon contained one tDNA coding for tRNAGlu.In contrast to the large one contained two tRNA genes coding for tRANAla and tRNAIle.Two regions of repeating motifs with only A or T were present in higher copy numbers between tRANAla and tRNAIle.The phylogenetic trees varied from 97.5 to 98.8%.The PCR and direct sequencing of 16S~23S rRAN ISR were successful in the pathogen species identification.

Molecular characterization of Serratia marcescens strains by RFLP and sequencing of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer

AIMS: To establish the specific DNA patterns in 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer (IGS) regions from different kinds of Serratia marcescens strains using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequences analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two pairs of primers based on the 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS were applied to amplify the rrn operons of two kinds of S. marcescens strains. About 1500 bp for 16S rDNA and four fragments of different sizes for 16S-23S rDNA IGS were obtained. PCR-amplified fragments were analysed by RFLP and sequence analysis. Two distinct restriction patterns revealing three to five bands between two kinds of strains were detected with each specific enzyme. According to the sequence analysis, two kinds of strains showed approximately 97% sequence homology of 16S rDNA. However, there was much difference in the sequences of IGS between the two kinds of strains. Intercistronic tRNA of strains H3010 and A3 demonstrated an order of tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Ala)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3', but strain B17 harboured the tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Glu)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3'. CONCLUSIONS: The method was specific, sensitive and accurate, providing a new technique for differentiating different strains from the same species. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This paper provided the first molecular characterization of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS from S. marcescens strains.

Species-specific oligonucleotide probes for the detection and identification of Lactobacillus isolated from mouse faeces

AIMS: To develop species-specific monitoring techniques for rapid detection and identification of Lactobacillus isolated from mouse faeces. METHODS AND RESULTS: The specificity of oligonucleotide probes was evaluated by dot blot hybridization to 16S rDNA and 23S rDNA amplified by PCR from 12 Lactobacillus type strains and 100 strains of Lactobacillus isolated from mouse faeces. Oligonucleotide probes specific for each Lactobacillus species hybridized only with targeted rDNA. The Lactobacillus strains isolated from mouse faeces were identified mainly as Lactobacillus intestinalis, L. johnsonii, L. murinus and L. reuteri using species-specific probes. 16S rDNA of eight unidentified isolates were sequenced and two new probes were designed. Four of eight strains of unhybridized Lactobacillus were identified as L. johnsonii/gasseri group, and the remaining four strains as L. vaginalis. CONCLUSIONS: The species-specific probe set of L. intestinalis, L. johnsonii, L. murinus, L. reuteri and L. vaginalis in this study was efficient for rapid identification of Lactobacillus isolated from mouse faeces. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The oligonucleotide probe set for Lactobacillus species harboured in the mouse intestine, can be used for rapid identification of lactobacilli and monitoring of the faecal Lactobacillus community.
