采用生物发光方法检测重组的分支杆菌噬菌体对不同细菌的发光反应,并比较了仅在特定的温度范围内才能繁殖的温敏噬菌体Phage 88和正常噬菌体Phage 40对分枝杆菌感染活力测定时发光强度的差异,以建立用不同类型重组噬菌体检测结核分枝杆菌耐药性的方法和条件.结果显示两种噬菌体对各种分枝杆菌作用后均有发光,对非分枝杆菌发光值很低,两者差异有显著性;不同的分枝杆菌发光值有差异:卡介苗的发光值最高,结核分枝杆菌的发光值最低;温敏噬菌体Phage 88的检测灵敏度大于正常噬菌体Phage 40,差异显著.因此可认为两株噬菌体均可特异地检测结核分枝杆菌,但Phage 88的效果优于Phage 40. 相似文献

Mycobacteriophage L5 is a well-characterized temperate phage that forms stable lysogens in Mycobacterium smegmatis . The host range of L5 is, however, unclear because previous reports suggested that it does not infect slow-growing mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG). Moreover, luciferase reporter phage derivatives of L5 failed to produce light from BCG, suggesting that infection is blocked at or before the stage of DNA injection. In this study, we demonstrate that L5 infection of slow growing mycobacteria specifically requires a high concentration of Ca2+ , conditions that differs from those required for infection of M. smegmatis by L5 and for infection of BCG by the closely related phage D29. In addition, we show that there are specific genetic determinants of L5 that confer the ability to infect slow growing mycobacteria, without altering infection of M. smegmatis . These observations extend the use of phage L5 for the diagnosis and analysis of tuberculosis and other mycobacterial diseases. 相似文献

Coincubation of monocytoid cell line U937 cells cotransfected with HIV-1 LTR CAT plasmid and Tat expression plasmid, with Mycobacterium smegmatis, M. avium, M. bovis BCG and M. tuberculosis enhanced chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) production, indicating that these mycobacteria could activate the LTR in this cell line. The amount of CAT in the cells coincubated with M. smegmatis was higher than that infected with the other mycobacteria after 12, 24 and 48 hour time periods. However, the amount of CAT production in the cells cocultured with M. tuberculosis was higher than those coincubated with the other mycobacteria at 72 hours. These findings indicated that avirulent mycobacteria such as M. smegmatis may activate HIV replication at an early time and its effects are gradually decreased, while the effect of virulent M. tuberculosis increased gradually, and lasted for a long time resulting in an acceleration of HIV disease in patients. 相似文献

One limiting factor in studies of tuberculosis and leprosy is the difficulty of genetic analysis and manipulation of mycobacteria. Two approaches were adopted for the construction of vectors, based on different Escherichia coli plasmids and using Mycobacterium smegmatis as the host. In both cases we found that the original E. coli plasmid is capable of being replicated in M. smegmatis, yielding chloramphenicol-resistant colonies. One such plasmid has been recovered from a M. smegmatis transformant and used to re-transform both M. smegmatis and E. coli to chloramphenicol resistance. This plasmid is indistinguishable from the original plasmid by restriction analysis, and can be used as a shuttle vector for the genetic manipulation of mycobacterial species. 相似文献

The effect of lysozyme on the growth of several strains of mycobacteria was examined at pH 5.0-7.0 in Dubos medium containing various concentrations of lysozyme (100-2,000 microgram/ml). Mycobacterium smegmatis and M. phlei were susceptible to lysozyme at pH 5.0-7.0. The effect of lysozyme was marked between pH 6.0 and 7.0 and the colony counts were reduced to approximately 0.1-10% after incubation with 100 micrograms of lysozyme per ml for 48 hr. At pH 5.0, 10-40% of the organisms survived treatment with 1,000 micrograms of lysozyme per ml for 48 hr. M. bovis strain BCG, M. tuberculosis, and M. fortuitum appeared to be more resistant to lysozyme than M. smegmatis and M. phlei. M. smegmatis and M. phlei did not contain detectable amounts of poly-L-glutamic acid, although the susceptibility of the mycobacteria to lysozyme did not correlate with the amounts of the polymer in the cell walls. The role of lysozyme in animal infections with so-called saprophytic mycobacteria is discussed. 相似文献

Deoxyribonucleic acid modification in six strains of mycobacteria was investigated. The presence of 5-methylcytosine in the virulent strain Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and its absence in the avirulent strain M. tuberculosis H37Ra and other saprophytic, fast-growing mycobacteria appear to be the salient features. However, deoxyribonucleic acid from M. smegmatis SN2 lysogenized with the temperature phage I3 showed the presence of 5-methylcytosine. All of the strains had N6-methyladenine. 相似文献

Ubiquitin-derived peptides are bactericidal in vitro and contribute to the mycobactericidal activity of the lysosome. To further define interactions of ubiquitin-derived peptides with mycobacteria, we screened for mutants with increased resistance to the bactericidal activity of the synthetic ubiquitin-derived peptide Ub2. The four Ub2-resistant Mycobacterium smegmatis mutants were also resistant to the bactericidal action of other antimicrobial peptides and macrophages. Two mutants were in the mspA gene encoding the main M. smegmatis porin. Using a translocation-deficient MspA point mutant, we showed that susceptibility of M. smegmatis to Ub2 was independent of MspA channel activity. Instead, the M. smegmatis Ub2-resistant mutants shared a common phenotype of decreased cell wall permeability compared with wild-type bacteria. Expression of mspA rendered Mycobacterium tuberculosis CDC1551 more susceptible both to ubiquitin-derived peptides in vitro and to lysosomal killing in macrophages. Finally, biochemical assays designed to assess membrane integrity indicated that Ub2 treatment impairs membrane function of M. smegmatis and M. tuberculosis cells . The M. smegmatis Ub2-resistant mutants were more resistant than wild-type M. smegmatis to this damage. We conclude that Ub2 targets mycobacterial membranes and that reduced membrane permeability provides mycobacteria intrinsic resistance against antimicrobial compounds including bactericidal ubiquitin-derived peptides. 相似文献

It was found in a previous study that Mycobacterium tuberculosis protein tyrosine phosphatase ptpAt promoter is a highly active promoter in slow-growing species of mycobacteria, such as M. tuberculosis and M. bovis BCG, but inert in fast-growing mycobacterial species, such as M. smegmatis. This difference is presumed to be due to the differences between sigma factors systems of slow-growing pathogenic mycobacteria and the fast-growing saprophyte M. smegmatis. Therefore, we constructed a series of plasmids, named pOLYG-13x, which can express various M. tuberculosis sigma factors and also contain a P(ptpAt)-gfp reporter gene construct. By inducing different sigma factor genes of M. tuberculosis in M. smegmatis, we were able to explore the influences of various sigma factors on the expression efficiency of the ptpAt promoter. The result show that of the 10 sigma factors evaluated, only sigF and sigL were able to weakly drive the ptpAt promoter in M. smegmatis and other sigma factors were unable to drive the promoter. 相似文献

Mammalian cell entry (mce) operons, implicated in the entry of mycobacteria into host cells, are present in pathogenic and saprophytic species. It is likely that the genes in these operons have functions other than those required for entry into host cells. Using in silico analysis we have identified domains within the mce operons that might justify their occurrence in saprophytic species like Mycobacterium smegmatis. Our analysis identified in addition to the mce domain, the presence of the Ttg2B and Ttg2C domains, typical of proteins involved in transport. We have also analysed and compared the expression profile between mce operons of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis and M. smegmatis under different growth conditions. In case of M. smegmatis, each operon presented domain truncation for at least one gene. We observe differential expression among the operons in M. smegmatis growing under different culture conditions. Bacilli growing in nutritionally rich medium with aeration, only the mce4 operon was expressed while during stationary phase of a standing culture, all four mce operons were expressed. In M. bovis, in addition to the absence of the mce3 operon, several protein domains encoded by the other operons were truncated. We detected expression of the mce2 operon in the exponential and stationary growth phase, while the mce1 operon was only expressed in the stationary growth phase. Differential expression of mce operons and their redundancy in the genome of the majority members of mycobacteria are discussed in view of our results. 相似文献
