摘要
为研究锌调控蛋白ZinT在肠炎沙门菌致病中的作用,本试验利用λ-Red同源重组系统构建了肠炎沙门菌(C50336)ZinT基因缺失突变株(C50336ΔZinT),并对其生物学特性进行分析。结果显示,与野生型菌株和回复菌株相比,缺失株C50336ΔZinT在LB培养基中生长速度无明显差异,生化特性亦无明显变化,但其在Minimal培养基中生长明显变慢。此外缺失株C50336ΔZinT对H_2O_2处理和高渗环境的适应能力显著下降,但在巨噬细胞内的存活率无明显降低。动物试验表明,ZinT基因缺失突变株的毒力和野生型菌株相比仅有轻微下降。本试验探讨了ZinT与肠炎沙门菌锌摄取和毒力间的联系,为进一步阐释肠炎沙门菌感染致病机制奠定基础。
In this study,we examined the role of ZinT in Salmonella enteritidis caused infection with ZinT deleted and tested the biochemical characteristics.The data showed that,the ZinT-knockout did not affect the growth of C50336 strains in LB and change of biochemical characteristics were not observed in ZinT-deletion mutant.Compared to the wild type and complemented strains,the ZinT-deficient mutant displayed sharply impaired survival in minimal medium and significantly increased sensitivity to H_2O_2 and hypertonic treatment.The similar survival in macrophage and slightly attenuated virulence was observed.This study determined the close relationship of ZinT and Salmonella's survival under Zn~(2+)-deficient condition,and provided insight into the underlying mechanism of Salmonella caused infection.
