Differentiation of Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis strains by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis

Genetic diversity of Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis strains isolated from naturally fermented sourdoughs of different origin was evaluated by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Computer-assisted comparison of the RAPD patterns revealed a clear separation of L. sanfranciscensis from other obligately heterofermentative Lactobacillus species closely related or normally present in sourdough. Six clusters, five of them constituted by strains of the same origin, were recognized at a similarity level of 63%. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) results on strains chosen as representative were generally in good agreement with the grouping obtained by RAPD. Both techniques showed a high degree of discriminatory power and indicated the existence of a remarkable genetic polymorphism within the species. Furthermore, the chromosome size of L. sanfranciscensis was estimated by PFGE to be about 1.4 Mb.

戊糖乳杆菌发酵培养基氮源条件的优化

对戊糖乳杆菌发酵培养基的氮源条件进行了优化。通过单因素实验及响应面分析优化利用木糖高产乳酸的戊糖乳杆菌发酵培养基的不同氮源组合。优化得到的牛肉膏与柠檬酸氢二铵复合的最佳组成为牛肉膏17.72 g/L,柠檬酸氢二铵1.91 g/L,得到乳酸实际最大产量42.37 g/L。添加玉米浆与酵母粉和无机氮源复合的最佳组成为玉米浆46.54 g/L,酵母粉21.95 g/L,柠檬酸氢二铵9.95 g/L,可得到乳酸最大产量41.06 g/L。通过响应面优化减少了有机氮源的种类。牛肉膏与柠檬酸氢二铵的复合得到了更高的乳酸产量,且减少了有机氮源用量,节约了成本。玉米浆与酵母粉的复合解决了单一玉米浆造成的木糖利用速率过低的问题,同样得到较高浓度的乳酸。     

Three new insertion sequence elements ISLdl2, ISLdl3, and ISLdl4 in Lactobacillus delbrueckii: isolation,molecular characterization,and potential use for strain identification

A group of new insertion sequence (IS) elements, ISLdl2, ISLdl3, and ISLdl4, from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis ATCC 15808 was isolated, characterized, and used for strain identification together with ISLdl1, recently characterized as an L. delbrueckii IS element belonging to the ISL3 family. ISLdl2 was 1367 bp in size and had a 24 bp IR and an 8 bp DR. The single ORF of ISLdl2 encoded a protein of 392 aa similar to transposases of the IS256 family. ISLdl3 had a single ORF encoding a protein of 343 aa similar to transposases of the IS30 family. Finally, ISLdl4 had a single ORF encoding a protein of 406 aa and displayed homology to the transposases of the IS110 family. ISLdl4 was only slight different from ISL4 (Accession No. AY040213). ISLdl1, ISLdl2, and ISLdl4 were present in all of the 10 L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis and subsp. delbrueckii strains tested, as well as in three of the 11 L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strains tested. ISLdl3 was present only in four closely related strains of L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis. These IS elements were not observed in Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus helveticus, or Lactobacillus plantarum. A cluster of IS elements, ISLdl1, ISLdl2, ISLdl3, ISLdl4, and ISL6, was observed in L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis strain ATCC 15808. Within this cluster, ISLdl4 was inserted into ISLdl1 between the left IR and the start codon of ORF455, encoding a putative transposase. Most of the integration sites of the IS elements were strain-specific. We have observed that IS elements can migrate from one strain to another as integral parts of bacterial DNA by using phage LL-H as a vehicle. We demonstrate for the first time that inverse PCR and vectorette PCR methods with primers based on sequences of the IS elements could be used for identification of L. delbrueckii strains.

乳杆菌在模拟肉制品条件下结合苯并芘的效果

【背景】乳杆菌对众多致癌物具有吸附作用,但关于乳杆菌结合吸附苯并芘特性的研究并不多。【目的】探讨戊糖乳杆菌(Lactobacillus pentosus) ML32和植物乳杆菌(Lactobacillus plantarum)121对加工肉制品中苯并芘的吸附能力与吸附机制。【方法】基于HPLC检测菌体对不同模拟加工处理方式肉品中的苯并芘的吸附率。【结果】植物乳杆菌121和戊糖乳杆菌ML32对模拟油炸、烟熏或烧烤方式处理肉中苯并芘的吸附率均在30%以上。菌株121对直接烟熏肉中的苯并芘吸附率为41.21%,直接油炸肉中吸附率为38.71%,直接烧烤肉中吸附率为37.51%;菌株ML32对间接烟熏肉中的苯并芘吸附率为40.02%,间接烧烤肉中吸附率为38.01%。植物乳杆菌121适合于去除高温长时间加工肉中的苯并芘,戊糖乳杆菌ML32则相反。另外,乳杆菌细胞壁中的肽聚糖或许在吸附过程中发挥了主要作用。【结论】两株乳杆菌121和ML32具有吸附某些加工肉制品中苯并芘的效果,或许可以作为一种方法用于消除某些肉制品中因苯并芘过量带来的风险。

松毛虫质型多角体病毒的宿主域与交叉感染

自1956年从赤松毛虫Dendrolimus spectabilis上首次发现赤松毛虫质型多角体病毒1型（D. spectabilis cytovirus 1,DsCPV-1）以来,先后从马尾松毛虫D. punctatus、油松毛虫D. tabulaeformis、赤松毛虫、德昌松毛虫D. p. tehchangensis、文山松毛虫D. p. Wenshangensis和落叶松毛虫D. superans上发现了质型多角体病毒(cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus,CPV)。病毒基因组dsRNA电泳图谱分析表明,这些松毛虫CPV的不同分离株均属于质型多角体病毒1型（cytovirus 1）。这些松毛虫CPV病毒可以感染鳞翅目10科35种昆虫,其中对多种昆虫具有很高的感染力和良好的杀虫效果,可以从中筛选替代宿主生产松毛虫CPV杀虫剂,用于害虫生物防治。松毛虫CPV接种某些昆虫后病毒的基因组dsRNA电泳图谱发生了改变,可能是异源病毒诱发了宿主自身潜伏型病毒的感染复制。
