The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) isolated from certain important Gram-negative pathogens including a human pathogen Yersinia pestis and opportunistic pathogens Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei contains d-glycero-d-talo-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Ko), an isosteric analog of 3-deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo). Kdo 3-hydroxylase (KdoO), a Fe2+/α-KG/O2 dependent dioxygenase from Burkholderia ambifaria and Yersinia pestis is responsible for Ko formation with Kdo2-lipid A as a substrate, but in which stage KdoO functions during the LPS biosynthesis has not been established. Here we purify KdoO from B. ambifaria (BaKdoO) to homogeneity for the first time and characterize its substrates. BaKdoO utilizes Kdo2-lipid IVA or Kdo2-lipid A as a substrate, but not Kdo-lipid IVAin vivo as well as in vitro and Kdo-(Hep)kdo-lipid A in vitro. These data suggest that KdoO is an inner core assembly enzyme that functions after the Kdo-transferase KdtA but before the heptosyl-transferase WaaC enzyme during the Ko-containing LPS biosynthesis. 相似文献

Background and Aims
Rhamnogalacturonan-II (RG-II) is one of the pectin motifs found in the cell wall of all land plants. It contains sugars such as 2-keto-3-deoxy-d-lyxo-heptulosaric acid (Dha) and 2-keto-3-deoxy-d-manno-octulosonic acid (Kdo), and within the wall RG-II is mostly found as a dimer via a borate diester cross-link. To date, little is known regarding the biosynthesis of this motif. Here, after a brief review of our current knowledge on RG-II structure, biosynthesis and function in plants, this study explores the implications of the presence of a Golgi-localized sialyltransferase-like 2 (SIA2) protein that is possibly involved in the transfer of Dha or Kdo in the RG-II of Arabidopsis thaliana pollen tubes, a fast-growing cell type used as a model for the study of cell elongation.Methods
Two heterozygous mutant lines of arabidopsis (sia2-1+/– and qrt1 × sia2-2+/–) were investigated. sia2-2+/– was in a quartet1 background and the inserted T-DNA contained the reporter gene β-glucuronidase (GUS) under the pollen-specific promoter LAT52. Pollen germination and pollen tube phenotype and growth were analysed both in vitro and in vivo by microscopy.Key Results
Self-pollination of heterozygous lines produced no homozygous plants in the progeny, which may suggest that the mutation could be lethal. Heterozygous mutants displayed a much lower germination rate overall and exhibited a substantial delay in germination (20 h of delay to reach 30 % of pollen grain germination compared with the wild type). In both lines, mutant pollen grains that were able to produce a tube had tubes that were either bursting, abnormal (swollen or dichotomous branching tip) or much shorter compared with wild-type pollen tubes. In vivo, mutant pollen tubes were restricted to the style, whereas the wild-type pollen tubes were detected at the base of the ovary.Conclusions
This study highlights that the mutation in arabidopsis SIA2 encoding a sialyltransferase-like protein that may transfer Dha or Kdo on the RG-II motif has a dramatic effect on the stability of the pollen tube cell wall. 相似文献33.
The structure of the carbohydrate backbone of the lipid A-core region of the LPS from Shewanella algae strain BrY was analysed. The LPS was N,O-deacylated to give three products, which were isolated and studied by chemical methods, NMR and mass spectrometry: [Carbohydrate structures: see text]. All monosaccharides except L-rhamnose had the D-configuration. This LPS presents a second example (after S. oneidensis) of the structure with a novel linking unit between the core and lipid A moieties, 8-amino-3,8-dideoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (8-amino-Kdo). 相似文献

The structure of the carbohydrate backbone of the lipopolysaccharide from Pectinatus frisingensis strain VTT E-79104 was analyzed using chemical degradations, NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and chemical methods. The LPS contains two major structural variants, differing in the presence or absence of an octasaccharide fragment. The largest structure of the carbohydrate backbone of the LPS, that could be deduced from experimental results, consists of 20 monosaccharides arranged in a nonrepetitive sequence: [carbohydrate structure: see text] where R is H or 4-O-Me-alpha-L-Fuc-(1-2)-4-O-Me-beta-Hep-(1-3)-alpha-GlcNAc-(1-2)-beta-Man-(1-3)-beta-ManNAc-(1-4)-alpha-Gal-(1-4)-beta-Hep-(1-3)-beta-GalNAc-(1- where Hep is a residue of D-glycero-D-galacto-heptose; all monosaccharides have the D-configuration except for 4-O-Me-L-Fuc and L-Ara4N. This structure is architecturally similar to the oligosaccharide system reported previously in P. frisingensis VTT E-82164 LPS, but differs from the latter in composition and also in the size of the outer region. 相似文献

To develop a convenient method for the preparation of an alpha-Kdo derivative carrying a functional spacer at the reducing end, we examined anomeric O-acylation using Kdo and halogenated alkyl/aryl isocyanates as nucleophile and electrophiles, respectively. Reaction of a Kdo derivative with 2-chloroethyl isocyanate in the presence of DMAP gave an alpha-spiro product (82%) and an alpha-Kdo derivative of a dimeric isocyanate adduct (10%). Similar reaction with 4-(chloromethyl)phenyl isocyanate gave only the corresponding alpha-spiro product (81%). The NMR data show that the pyranose rings of both the alkyl and aryl spiro products adopt the 5C2 conformation. Thus, we accomplished alpha-selective anomeric O-acylation by coupling the Kdo derivative with alkyl and aryl isocyanates. 相似文献

Reductive amination of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid (Kdo) with allylamine (AllN) or 2-(4-aminophenyl)ethylamine (APEA) yields epimer pairs of 2-N-allylamino and 2-N-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethylamino]-2,3-dideoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto- and-2,3-dideoxy-D-glycero-D-talo-octonic acid. The yields were 50–60% due to reduction of Kdo to the respective polyols as side reaction products. Mass spectrometric analyses proved the amination derivatives to be the expected glycamines. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies were performed on 2-N-allylamino-2,3-dideoxyoctonic acid which represents the chain terminus of allylaminated oligosaccharides derived from bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) after acid hydrolysis and reductive allylamination. 相似文献

In plants, 3‐deoxy‐d ‐manno‐oct‐2‐ulosonic acid (Kdo) is a monosaccharide that is only found in the cell wall pectin, rhamnogalacturonan‐II (RG‐II). Incubation of 4‐day‐old light‐grown Arabidopsis seedlings or tobacco BY‐2 cells with 8‐azido 8‐deoxy Kdo (Kdo‐N3) followed by coupling to an alkyne‐containing fluorescent probe resulted in the specific in muro labelling of RG‐II through a copper‐catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction. CMP‐Kdo synthetase inhibition and competition assays showing that Kdo and D‐Ara, a precursor of Kdo, but not L‐Ara, inhibit incorporation of Kdo‐N3 demonstrated that incorporation of Kdo‐N3 occurs in RG‐II through the endogenous biosynthetic machinery of the cell. Co‐localisation of Kdo‐N3 labelling with the cellulose‐binding dye calcofluor white demonstrated that RG‐II exists throughout the primary cell wall. Additionally, after incubating plants with Kdo‐N3 and an alkynated derivative of L‐fucose that incorporates into rhamnogalacturonan I, co‐localised fluorescence was observed in the cell wall in the elongation zone of the root. Finally, pulse labelling experiments demonstrated that metabolic click‐mediated labelling with Kdo‐N3 provides an efficient method to study the synthesis and redistribution of RG‐II during root growth. 相似文献

Mass spectrometric analyses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from isogenic Escherichia coli strains with nonpolar mutations in the waa locus or overexpression of their cognate genes revealed that waaZ and waaS are the structural genes required for the incorporation of the third 3-deoxy-α-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) linked to Kdo disaccharide and rhamnose, respectively. The incorporation of rhamnose requires prior sequential incorporation of the Kdo trisaccharide. The minimal in vivo lipid A-anchored core structure Kdo(2)Hep(2)Hex(2)P(1) in the LPS from ΔwaaO (lacking α-1,3-glucosyltransferase) could incorporate Kdo(3)Rha, without the overexpression of the waaZ and waaS genes. Examination of LPS heterogeneity revealed overlapping control by RpoE σ factor, two-component systems (BasS/R and PhoB/R), and ppGpp. Deletion of RpoE-specific anti-σ factor rseA led to near-exclusive incorporation of glycoforms with the third Kdo linked to Kdo disaccharide. This was accompanied by concomitant incorporation of rhamnose, linked to either the terminal third Kdo or to the second Kdo, depending upon the presence or absence of phosphoethanolamine on the second Kdo with truncation of the outer core. This truncation in ΔrseA was ascribed to decreased levels of WaaR glycosyltransferase, which was restored to wild-type levels, including overall LPS composition, upon the introduction of rybB sRNA deletion. Thus, ΔwaaR contained LPS primarily with Kdo(3) without any requirement for lipid A modifications. Accumulation of a glycoform with Kdo(3) and 4-amino-4-deoxy-l-arabinose in lipid A in ΔrseA required ppGpp, being abolished in a Δ(ppGpp(0) rseA). Furthermore, Δ(waaZ lpxLMP) synthesizing tetraacylated lipid A exhibited synthetic lethality at 21-23°C pointing to the significance of the incorporation of the third Kdo. 相似文献

Plesiomonas shigelloides O17 LPS contains the same O-antigenic polysaccharide chain as a causative agent of dysentery, Shigella sonnei. This polysaccharide can be used as a component of a vaccine against dysentery. Core part of the P. shigelloides O17 LPS was studied using NMR and mass spectrometry and the following structure was proposed: Significant similarity of the P. shigelloides O17 LPS core with the structure of the P. shigelloides O54 core was observed. 相似文献
