Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis DPC721 is a spontaneous bacteriophage insensitive mutant of strain DPC220, isolated after challenge with an industrial bacteriophage, phi D1. Plasmid analysis demonstrated that the bacteriophage insensitivity was associated with the absence of two native DPC220 plasmids (pAH82 and pAH33), and the presence of a novel plasmid (pAH90) in DPC721. The plasmids were transferred by conjugative mobilization to a plasmid free background where it was confirmed by restriction mapping that pAH90 is a co-integrate formed by the precise recombination of pAH82 and pAH33. The resistance phenotype encoded by pAH90 was also active against two bacteriophage homologous for the plasmid-free strain. Plasmid pAH90 was shown to encode at least two independent resistance mechanisms, including an adsorption-inhibition mechanism and a restriction and modification system. The adsorption-inhibition mechanism encoded by the co-integrate plasmid was specific for one of the phage used in this study. 相似文献

Summary A gene encoding -glucanase activity from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was subcloned in both orientations into plasmid shuttle vector pSA3. In only one orientation could a co-integrate be generated with the conjugative plasmid pVA797. The plasmid co-integrate was conjugated into Lactobacillus helveticus strain CNRZ450, where it was stably maintained without antibiotic selection and exhibited -glucanase activity. This method of introducing cloned DNA into thermophilic lactobacilli will facilitate the study of heterologous gene expression in non-transformable species.

AIMS: To develop food-grade cloning and expression vectors for use in genetic modification of Lactococcus lactis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two plasmid replicons and three dominant selection markers were isolated from L. lactis and used to construct five food-grade cloning vectors. These vectors were composed of DNA only from L. lactis and contained no antibiotic resistance markers. Three of the vectors (pND632, pND648 and pND969) were based on the same plasmid replicon and carried, either alone or in combination, the three different selectable markers encoding resistance to nisin, cadmium and/or copper. The other two (pND965DJ and pND965RS) were derived from a cadmium resistance plasmid, and carried a constitutive promoter and a copper-inducible promoter, respectively, immediately upstream of a multicloning site. All vectors were stable in L. lactis LM0230 for at least 40 generations without selection pressure. The two groups of vectors were compatible in L. lactis LM0230. The vectors pND648 and pND965RS, as representatives of the two groups, were transferred successfully by electroporation into and maintained in an industrial strain of L. lactis. The usefulness of the vectors was further demonstrated by expressing a phage resistance gene (abiI) in another industrial strain of L. lactis. CONCLUSIONS: The five food-grade vectors constructed are potentially useful for industrial strains of L. lactis. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: These vectors represent a new set of molecular tools useful for food-grade modifications of L. lactis. 相似文献

Transformation of Kluyveromyces lactis with the kanamycin (G418) resistance gene of Tn903 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Direct selection of Kluyveromyces lactis resistant to the antibiotic G418 following transformation with the kanamycin resistance gene of Tn903 required the development of a procedure for producing high yields of viable spheroplasts and for the isolation of autonomous replication sequences (ARS). To obtain high yields of viable spheroplasts, cells were treated with (1) a thiol-reducing agent (L-cysteine), and (2) a high concentration of an osmotic stabilizer, 1.5 M sorbitol. Several ARS-containing plasmids were selected from a K. lactis recombinant DNA library in K. lactis and in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two of four ARS clones selected in K. lactis promoted transformation frequencies of 5-10 X 10(2) G418-resistant cells/micrograms of plasmid DNA. This frequency of transformation was at least twice as high as with ARS clones selected in S. cerevisiae. The stability of ARS-containing plasmids varied; after 20 generations of growth in the presence of G418, 16-38% of the cells remained resistant to the drug. In the absence of selection pressure less than 5% of the cells retained the drug-resistance phenotype. Plasmids containing the ARS1 or 2 mu replicon of S. cerevisiae failed to transform K. lactis for G418 resistance. Inclusion of S. cerevisiae centromere, CEN4, in a K. lactis ARS recombinant plasmid did not increase the stability of the plasmid in K. lactis, and marker genes on the vector segregated predominantly 4-:0+ through meiosis. We conclude that neither the ARS sequences or the centromere of S. cerevisiae was functioning in K. lactis. 相似文献

A vector (pKMP10) capable of Campbell-like integration into the Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis LM0230 chromosome via homologous recombination with chromosomal IS981 sequences was constructed from the replication region of lactococcal plasmid pSK11L, an internal fragment of IS981, and the erythromycin resistance gene and Escherichia coli replication origin of pVA891. The pSK11L replication region is temperature sensitive for maintenance in L. lactis subsp. lactis LM0230, resulting in loss of unintegrated pKMP10 during growth at greater than 37 degrees C. pKMP10 integrants made up 8 to 75% of LM0230(pKMP10) erythromycin-resistant cells following successive growth at 25 degrees C with selection, 39 degrees C without selection, and 39 degrees C with selection. pKMP10 integrants were also isolated from L. lactis subsp. lactis MG1363(pKMP10) but at a 10-fold-lower frequency (4%). No integrants were isolated form L. lactis subsp. lactis MMS368(pKMP10) (a Rec-deficient strain) or LM0230(pKMP1-E) (the corresponding plasmid lacking the IS981 fragment). Examination of 17 LM0230 integrants by Southern hybridization revealed pKMP10 integration into five different chromosomal sites. Four of the integration sites appeared to be chromosomal IS981 sequences, while one was an uncharacterized chromosomal sequence. The four IS981 integrants seemed to have pKMP10 integrated in a tandem repeat structure of undetermined length. Integrated pKMP10 was more stable (0 to 2% plasmid loss) than unintegrated pKMP10 (100% plasmid loss) when grown for 100 generations at 32 degrees C without selection. 相似文献

Lactococcus lactis strains from the subsp. cremoris are described as more sensitive to osmotic stress than subsp. lactis strains. We examined the relation between osmotic tolerance and the activity of the betaine transporter BusA among 34 strains of L. lactis. The cremoris strains that showed reduced growth at high osmolality failed to accumulate betaine. The nature of the defect was found to vary among cremoris strains: lack of the busA encoding region, absence of synthesis or synthesis of an inactive form of BusA. The results suggest that the selection of strains well fitted to the dairy production lead to the loss of an otherwise efficient adaptation mechanism. 相似文献

This study identifies a natural system in Lactococcus lactis, in which a restriction modification specificity subunit resident on a 6159 bp plasmid (pAH33) alters the specificity of a functional R/M mechanism encoded by a 20.3 kb plasmid, pAH82. The new specificity was identified after phenotypic and molecular analysis of a 26.5 kb co-integrate plasmid (pAH90), which was detected after bacteriophage challenge of the parent strain. Analysis of the regions involved in the co-integration revealed that two novel hybrid hsdS genes had been formed during the co-integration event. The HsdS chimeras had interchanged the C- and N-terminal variable domains of the parent subunits, generating two new restriction specificities. Comparison of the parent hsdS genes with other type I specificity determinants revealed that the region of the hsdS genes responsible for the co-integration event is highly conserved among lactococcal type I hsdS determinants. Thus, as hsdS determinants are widespread in the genus Lactococcus, new restriction specificities may evolve rapidly after homologous recombination between these genes. This study demonstrates that, similar to previous observations in Gram-negative bacteria, a Gram-positive bacterium can acquire novel restriction specificities naturally through domain shuffling of resident HsdS subunits. 相似文献

AIMS: To evaluate the autolytic properties of Lactococcus lactis strains isolated from artisan Tunisian dairy products, their peptidoglycan hydrolase content and their activity spectrum. METHODS AND RESULTS: The autolytic phenotype of Lactococcus strains was evaluated under starvation conditions in potassium phosphate buffer. The results obtained highlighted a high degree of diversity among the strains analysed, allowing the identification of high and low autolytic Lactococcus lactis strains. Peptidoglycan hydrolase content was evaluated by renaturing SDS-PAGE using cells of Micrococcus lysodeikticus as a target for the enzymatic activity. A major activity band migrating at about 45 kDa was observed. The lytic activity, evaluated in the presence of different chemicals, was retained in 8% NaCl, 15 mmol l(-1) CaCl2, and in a pH range between 5 and 9.5. The substrate specificity of peptidoglycan hydrolase from Lactococcus strains was evaluated in renaturing SDS-PAGE incorporating cells of different bacterial species. The major autolysin of Lactococcus lactis was active against cells of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lactobacillus helveticus and Listeria monocytogenes. CONCLUSIONS: Autolytic activity is widely distributed in Lactococcus lactis and the rate of autolysis is strain-dependent. The major peptidoglycan hydrolase showed a wide spectrum of activity against several lactic acid bacteria and bacterial species involved in food-related infection. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The autolytic phenotype of Lactococcus lactis strains isolated from Tunisian artisan dairy products has been determined, and the data obtained should allow the selection of strains of technological interest in the cheese-ripening process. 相似文献

A food-grade cloning vector for lactic acid bacteria based on the nisin immunity gene nisI 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
A new food-grade cloning vector for lactic acid bacteria was constructed using the nisin immunity gene nisI as a selection marker. The food-grade plasmid, pLEB590, was constructed entirely of lactococcal DNA: the pSH71 replicon,
the nisI gene, and the constitutive promoter P45 for nisI expression. Electroporation into Lactococcus lactis MG1614 with 60 international units (IU) nisin/ml selection yielded approximately 105 transformants/μg DNA. MG1614 carrying pLEB590 was shown to be able to grow in medium containing a maximum of 250 IU nisin/ml.
Plasmid pLEB590 was succesfully transformed into an industrial L. lactis cheese starter carrying multiple cryptic plasmids. Suitability for molecular cloning was confirmed by cloning and expressing
the proline iminopeptidase gene pepI from Lactobacillus helveticus in L. lactis and Lb. plantarum. These results show that the food-grade expression system reported in this paper has potential for expression of foreign
genes in lactic acid bacteria in order to construct improved starter bacteria for food applications.

The yeast Kluyveromyces lactis has been extensively used as a host for heterologous protein expression. A necessary step in the construction of a stable expression strain is the introduction of an integrative expression vector into K. lactis cells, followed by selection of transformed strains using either medium containing antibiotic (e.g., G418) or nitrogen-free medium containing acetamide. In this study, we show that selection using acetamide yields K. lactis transformant populations nearly completely comprised of strains bearing multiple tandem insertions of the expression vector pKLAC1 at the LAC4 chromosomal locus, whereas an average of 16% of G418-selected transformants are multiply integrated. Additionally, the average copy number within transformant populations doubled when acetamide was used for selection compared to G418. Finally, we demonstrate that the high frequency of multicopy integration associated with using acetamide selection can be exploited to rapidly construct expression strains that simultaneously produce multiple heterologous proteins or multisubunit proteins, such as Fab antibodies. 相似文献

With TEM beta-lactamase as a reporter gene, a set of expression-secretion-promoting fragments were isolated from the chromosome of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis. The fact that only translocated beta-lactamase renders cells resistant to ampicillin allowed direct ampicillin selection with an Escherichia coli vector (pKTH33). The clones showing the greatest ampicillin resistance were subcloned onto a replicon capable of replication in lactic acid bacteria (pVS2), and the nucleotide sequences of the relevant fragments were determined. The structure of the secretion-promoting fragments in general resembled that of gram-positive true signal sequences, with a strongly positively charged N terminus, a long hydrophobic core, and a putative signal peptidase recognition site. The promoterlike sequences preceding the signal sequences matched well with those of previously published lactococcal promoters. In addition to E. coli, the functioning of these expression-secretion cassettes was studied in three gram-positive hosts: Bacillus subtilis, L. lactis, and Lactobacillus plantarum. Efficient expression and secretion of TEM beta-lactamase into the culture medium of each gram-positive host was obtained. Furthermore, when a strain of L. lactis subsp. lactis showing increased sensitivity to lysozyme was compared with a standard laboratory strain, threefold-higher secreted enzyme activities were detected. 相似文献

Aims: Genotypic and technological characterization of wild lactococci isolated from artisanal Manchego cheese during the ripening process for selection of suitable starter cultures.
Methods and Results: A total of 114 isolates of lactococci were typed using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR). Sixteen distinct RAPD-PCR patterns, at a similarity level of 73%, were obtained. On the basis of species-specific PCR reaction, the isolates were assigned to the species Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis and Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris with L. lactis subsp. lactis being predominant at both dairies. Twenty-six isolates were technologically characterized to select those with the best properties. Most of them showed good technological properties although some could produce tyramine.
Conclusions: The presence of coincident genotypes at both dairies has been demonstrated, which would suggest that they are well adapted to the Manchego cheese environment. Interesting differences were found in the technological characterization and the potential role of autochthonous lactococci strains as starter culture has been displayed.
Significance and Impact of the Study: The great economic importance of Manchego cheese encouraged a deeper knowledge of its microbiota, to select strains with the best properties to use as starter cultures in industrial Manchego cheeses, preserving the autochthonous characteristics. 相似文献

Transmission of ColE1/pMB1-derived plasmids, such as pBR322, from Escherichia coli donor strains was shown to be an efficient way to introduce these plasmids into Agrobacterium. This was accomplished by using E. coli carrying the helper plasmids pGJ28 and R64drd11 which provide the ColE1 mob functions and tra functions, respectively. For example, the broad host-range replication plasmid, pGV1150, a co-integrate plasmid between pBR322 and the W-type mini-Sa plasmid, pGV1106, was transmitted from E. coli to A. tumefaciens with a transfer frequency of 4.5 x 10(-3). As pBR322 clones containing pTiC58 fragments were unable to replicate in Agrobacterium, these clones were found in Agrobacterium only if the acceptor carried a Ti plasmid, thus allowing a co-integration of the pBR322 clones with the Ti plasmid by homology recombination. These observations were used to develop an efficient method for site-specific mutagenesis of the Ti plasmids. pTiC58 fragnents, cloned in pBR322, were mutagenized in vitro and transformed into E. coli. The mutant clones were transmitted from an E. coli donor strain containing pGJ28 and R64drd11 to an Agrobacterium containing a target Ti plasmid. Selecting for stable transfer of the mutant clone utilizing its antibiotic resistance marker(s) gave exconjugants that already contained a co-integrate plasmid between the mutant clone and the Ti plasmid. A second recombination can dissociate the co-integrate plasmid into the desired mutant Ti plasmid and a non-replicating plasmid formed by the vector plasmid pBR322 and the target Ti fragment. These second recombinants lose the second plasmid and they are identified by screening for the appropriate marker combination. 相似文献

Starved cells of Streptococcus lactis ML3 (grown previously on galactose, lactose, or maltose) accumulated methyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (TMG) by the lactose:phosphotransferase system. More than 98% of accumulated sugar was present as a phosphorylated derivative, TMG-6-phosphate (TMG-6P). When a phosphotransferase system sugar (glucose, mannose, 2-deoxyglucose, or lactose) was added to the medium simultaneously with TMG, the beta-galactoside was excluded from the cells. Galactose enhanced the accumulation of TMG-6P. Glucose, mannose, lactose, or maltose plus arginine, was added to a suspension of TMG-6P-loaded cells of S. lactis ML3, elicited rapid expulsion of intracellular solute. The material recovered in the medium was exclusively free TMG. Expulsion of galactoside required both entry and metabolism of an appropriate sugar, and intracellular dephosphorylation of TMG-6P preceded efflux of TMG. The rate of dephosphorylation of TMG-6P by permeabilized cells was increased two-to threefold by adenosine 5'-triphosphate but was strongly inhibited by fluoride. S. lactis ML3 (DGr) was derived from S. lactis ML3 by positive selection for resistance to 2-deoxy-D-glucose and was defective in the enzyme IIMan component of the glucose:phosphotransferase system. Neither glucose nor mannose excluded TMG from cells of S. lactic ML3 (DGr), and these two sugars failed to elicit TMG expulsion from preloaded cells of the mutant strain. Accumulation of TMG-6P by S. lactis ML3 can be regulation by two independent mechanisms whose activities promote exclusion or expulsion of galactoside from the cell. 相似文献

The lactose plasmid pUCL22 of the single plasmid strain Streptococcus lactis ssp. lactis Z270 was demonstrated to fuse with the heterologous conjugative plasmid pVA797. The fusion of pUCL22 with pVA797 occurred by recombination between a specific sequence of pUCL22 and different sites of pVA797. The cointegrates of pUCL22::pVA797 were unstable: in the absence of lactose selection, they segregated plasmids that corresponded to pVA797 enlarged by one sequence of 1.2 kb, common to all derivative plasmids. This resolution sequence (RS) was shown to originate in the 9.7 kb BstEII restriction fragment of pUCL22 and to duplicate during replicon fusion. In addition, after nuclease S1 treatment of pUCL22 DNA, a self-annealing sequence was isolated; the two copies of this inverted repeat (IR) sequence were located on the 18 kb BamHI segment of the plasmid. This latter sequence was distinct from the RS with which it hybridized weakly. The RS was responsible for the transposition of the entire lactose plasmid; the role of the IR remains to be elucidated. 相似文献

Bacteriocins formed by four strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis have been studied and compared: 729 (a natural strain isolated from milk), 1605 (a mutant of strain 729), F-116 (a recombinant obtained by fusing of protoplasts of the two related strain 729 and 1605), and a nisin-forming strain obtained by adaptive selection at Moscow State University. Antimicrobial activity studies revealed differences between the strains in the effects on individual groups of microorganisms; the activities of the strains were also distinct from that of Nisaplin (a commercial preparation of the bacteriocin nisin). Methods for isolation and purification of bacteriocins have been developed, making it possible to obtain individual components of antibiotic complexes as chromatographically pure preparations. Bacteriocins formed by the strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis have been identified and differences in their biological and physicochemical properties, established. A novel potent broad-spectrum antibiotic substance distinct from nisin has been isolated from the recombinant strain F-116. 相似文献
