Abstract
-
Gram-negative bacteria expel a wide range of toxic substances
through tripartite drug efflux pumps consisting of an inner
membrane transporter, an outer membrane channel protein,
and a periplasmic adaptor protein. These pumps form tripartite
assemblies which can span the entire cell envelope,
including the inner and outer membranes. There have been
controversial findings regarding the assembly of the individual
components in tripartite drug efflux pumps. Recent
structural and functional studies have advanced our understanding
of the assembly and working mechanisms of the
pumps. Here, we re-evaluate the assembly models based on
recent structural and functional studies. In particular, this
study focuses on the ‘adaptor bridging model’, highlighting
the intermeshing cogwheel-like interactions between the tip
regions of the outer membrane channel protein and the periplasmic
adaptor protein in the hexameric assembly.

Abstract
-
A novel Gram-negative, rod-shaped (0.2-0.5 um x 1.5-2.5 um), aerobic, non-motile bacterium was isolated from Gyeryongsan
national park soil, Republic of Korea. The novel
isolate was designated as THG-DN8.2T. The strain grows
optimally at 28oC, at pH 7 and in the absence of NaCl.
Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence
showed that the novel isolate shared the highest sequence
similarity with Lysobacter oryzae KCTC 22249T followed by
Lysobacter yangpyeongensis KACC 11407T and Lysobacter
niabensis KACC 11587T. The DNA G+C content of strain
THG-DN8.2T is 66.0 mol% and ubiquinone Q-8 is the main
isoprenoid quinone. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine,
and phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine. The
major fatty acids of strain THG-DN8.2T were identified as
iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and C16:1w7c alcohol. The phylogenetic
distinctiveness and phenotypic characteristics differentiated
strain THG-DN8.2T from closely related Lysobacter species.
The results of polyphasic taxonomic analysis suggest that
strain THG-DN8.2T represents a novel species of the genus
Lysobacter, for which the name Lysobacter tyrosinelyticus
sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is THG-DN8.2T (=KCTC
42235T =JCM 30320T).

Abstract
-
Although oilfields harbor a wide diversity of microorganisms
with various metabolic potentials, our current knowledge
about oil-degrading bacteria is limited because the vast majority
of oil-degrading bacteria remain uncultured. In the
present study, microbial communities in nine oil-contaminated
soils collected from Daqing and Changqing, two of the
largest oil fields in China, were characterized through highthroughput
sequencing of 16S rRNA genes. Bacteria related
to the phyla Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were dominant
in four and three samples, respectively. At the genus level,
Alkanindiges, Arthrobacter, Pseudomonas, Mycobacterium,
and Rhodococcus were frequently detected in nine soil samples.
Many of the dominant genera were phylogenetically
related to the known oil-degrading species. The correlation
between physiochemical parameters within the microbial
communities was also investigated. Canonical correspondence
analysis revealed that soil moisture, nitrate, TOC, and pH
had an important impact in shaping the microbial communities
of the hydrocarbon-contaminated soil. This study provided
an in-depth analysis of microbial communities in oilcontaminated
soil and useful information for future bioremediation
of oil contamination.

Abstract
-
Distinctive plant communities may provide specific physical
and chemical properties with soils by specific litters and root
exudates to exert effects on soil microorganisms. Past logging
activities in the Qinling Mountains induced diverse
natural secondary forest types (NSFTs). How these recovered
NSFTs regulate patterns of soil microbial communities remain
limited. In the study, we used terminal-restriction fragment
length polymorphism (T-RFLP) to precisely determine
forest type-specific soil fungal diversity and composition in
five NSFTs. Our results indicated that NSFTs had significant
impacts on the soil fungal communities. The most diverse
fungal species were found in the Armand pine (Pinus armandi)
and Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis) forest soils,
followed by sharptooth oak (Quercus aliena var. acuteserrata)
and Chinese pine-sharptooth oak forest soils, the wilson
spruce (Picea wilsonii) forests had the lowest soil fungal diversity.
The analyses of community composition suggested
that the fungal communities of Armand pine forest soils were
similar to those of Chinese pine forest soils, while other communities
prominently differed from each other. Stepwise
multiple regression analysis revealed that soil silt, clay, pH,
and ammonium nitrogen had intimate linkages with soil fungal
diversity. Furthermore, the patterns of soil fungal communites
were strongly governed by the specific soil environments
of the tested NSFTs, as described by canonical correspondence
analysis (CCA). Finally, our study showed that
soil fungal communities may be mediated by NSFTs via
specific soil edaphic status. Hence, such a comparable study
may provide fundamental information for fungal diversity
and community structure of natural forests and assist with
better prediction and understanding how soil fungal composition
and function alter with forest type transformation.

Abstract
-
An endophyte (PC27-5) was isolated from stem tissue of
Western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) in a Pacific Northwest
temperate rainforest. Phylogenetic analyses, based on ITS-
5.8S rDNA and 18S rDNA sequence data, combined with
cultural and morphological analysis showed that endophyte
PC27-5 exhibited all characteristics of a fungus identical to
Coniochaeta velutina. Furthermore, wide spectrum antimycotics
were produced by this endophyte that were active
against such plant pathogens as Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Pythium
ultimum, and Verticillium dahliae and lethal to Phythophthora
cinnamomi, Pythium ultimum, and Phytophthora
palmivora in plate tests. The bioactive components were purified
through organic solvent extraction, followed by silica
column chromatography, and finally preparative HPLC. The
minimum inhibitory concentration of the active fraction to
Pythium ultimum, which was gained from preparative HPLC,
was 11 ?/ml. UPLC-HRMS analysis showed there were two
similar components in the antimycotic fraction. Their molecular
formulae were established as C30H22O11 (compound I)
and C30H22O10 (compound II) respectively, and preliminary
spectral results indicate that they are anthroquinone glycosides.
Other non ?biologically active compounds were identified
in culture fluids of this fungus by spectral means as emodin
and chrysophanol - anthroquinone derivatives. This is
the first report that Coniochaeta velutina as an endophyte
produces bioactive antifungal components.

Abstract
-
Probiotics have been suggested as a prophylactic measure
in colon cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the
impact of Lactobacillus salivarius Ren (Ren) in modulating
colonic microbiota structure and colon cancer incidence in a
rat model after injection with 1,2-dimethyl hydrazine (DMH).
The results indicated that oral administration of Ren could
effectively suppress DMH-induced colonic carcinogenesis.
A significant decrease in cancer incidence (87.5% to 25%)
was detected in rats fed with a dose of 5 × 1010 CFU/kg
bodyweight per day. Using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis
and Real-time PCR combined with multivariate
statistical methods, we demonstrated that injection with DMH
significantly altered the rat gut microbiota, while Ren counteracted
these DMH-induced adverse effects and promoted
reversion of the gut microbiota close to the healthy state. Tvalue
biplots followed by band sequencing identified 21 bacterial
strains as critical variables affected by DMH and Ren.
Injection of DMH significantly increased the amount of
Ruminococcus species (sp.) and Clostridiales bacteria, as well
as decreasing the Prevotella sp. Administration of Ren reduced
the amount of Ruminococcus sp., Clostridiales bacteria, and
Bacteroides dorei, and increased the amount of Prevotella.
Real-time PCR results were consistent with the results derived
by t-value biplots. These findings suggested that Ren is a potential
agent for colon cancer prevention. In conclusion, the
results
in the present study suggest a potential therapeutic
approach based on the modulation of intestinal microflora
by probiotics may be beneficial in the prevention of colorectal
carcinogenesis.

Abstract
-
Nuclear targeting of bacterial proteins and their pathological
effects on host cells are an emerging pathogenic mechanism
in bacteria. We have previously reported that urease subunit
A (UreA) of Helicobacter pylori targets the nuclei of COS-7
cells through nuclear localization signals (NLSs). This study
further investigated whether UreA of H. pylori targets the
nuclei of gastric epithelial cells and then induces molecular
and cellular changes in the host cells. H. pylori 26695 strain
produced and secreted outer membrane vesicles (OMVs).
UreA was translocated into gastric epithelial AGS cells through
outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and then targeted the nuclei
of AGS cells. Nuclear targeting of rUreA did not induce
host cell death, but resulted in morphological changes, such
as cellular elongation, in AGS cells. In contrast, AGS cells
treated with rUreAΔNLS proteins did not show this morphological
change. Next generation sequencing revealed that
nuclear targeting of UreA differentially regulated 102 morphogenesis-
related genes, of which 67 and 35 were up-regulated
and down-regulated, respectively. Our results suggest
that nuclear targeting of H. pylori UreA induces both molecular
and cellular changes in gastric epithelial cells.

Abstract
-
Cervical cancer is strongly associated with chronic human
papillomavirus infections, among which HPV16 is the most
common. Two commercial HPV vaccines, Gardasil and
Cervarix are effective for preventing HPV infection, but cannot
be used to treat existing HPV infections. Previously, we
developed a human endogenous retrovirus (HERV)-enveloped
recombinant baculovirus capable of delivering the L1
genes of HPV types 16, 18, and 58 (AcHERV-HP16/18/58L1,
AcHERV-HPV). Intramuscular administration of AcHERVHPV
vaccines induced a strong cellular immune response
as well as a humoral immune response. In this study, to examine
the therapeutic effect of AcHERV-HPV in a mouse
model, we established an HPV16 L1 expressing tumor cell
line. Compared to Cervarix, immunization with AcHERVHPV
greatly enhanced HPV16 L1-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes
(CTL) in C57BL/6 mice. Although vaccination
could not remove preexisting tumors, strong CTL activity
retarded the growth of inoculated tumor cells. These results
indicate that AcHERV-HPV could serve as a potential therapeutic
DNA vaccine against concurrent infection with HPV
16, 18, and 58.
