Abstract
-
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a novel secretion system
found in many Gram-negative bacteria that plays a role
in bacterial competition, virulence, and host immune evasion.
The enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7
strain EDL933 has a single functional T6SS gene cluster. In
this study, we attempted to characterize the transcriptional
pattern of the T6SS effector gene Z0264 in EDL933. Transcriptional
analyses showed that Z0264 and other T6SS genes
were transcribed in vitro in a growth-phase-dependent manner,
but Z0264 was not secreted in the rich medium. Using
adapter- and radioactivity-free transcription start site analysis,
we identified an overlapping divergent promoter between
Z0264 and Z0265. A β-galactosidase assay with truncated promoter
regions showed that the divergent promoter is functional.
In addition, we demonstrated the role of H-NS as a
repressor in the transcription of Z0264. Notably, the cDNA
PCR assay showed that the mRNA transcript from the Z0264
promoter did not include the entire main T6SS cluster, suggesting
segmented gene expression by multiple promoters in
the T6SS cluster. In conclusion, we identified a divergent promoter
for Z0264 located in the T6SS cluster of EDL933 and
characterized its in vitro transcriptional activity during growth.
Our findings provide insights and a preliminary understanding
of the regulatory mechanisms underlying T6SS transcription.

Abstract
-
CrrAB two-component regulatory system is associated with
colistin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Recently, some
K. pneumoniae isolates lacking crrAB genes have been identified.
In this study, we investigated the distribution and structural
variation of the crrBAC-kexD cluster. To evaluate the
structural variation of the crrBAC-kexD cluster, we explored
59 clinical K. pneumoniae isolates from Korea, and 508 whole
genomes of K. pneumoniae and other strains of Klebsiella
sp. Significant structural variations in crrBAC-kexD and its
surrounding regions were identified among K. pneumoniae
genomes. Within the genus Klebsiella, the cluster was identified
only in K. pneumoniae, K. variicola, and K. quasipneumoniae,
which form the K. pneumoniae complex. Among the
304 available K. pneumoniae genomes, an intact crrBAC-kexD
cluster was identified in 178 isolates (58.6%), while the cluster
was absent in 90 isolates (29.6%). Partial deletions within
the cluster were identified in 22 genomes (7.2%). The most
diverse structural patterns of the crrBAC-kexD cluster were
observed in ST11 strains. Some clades lacked the crrBAC-kexD
cluster. The crrBAC-kexD cluster was identified in the genomes
of other bacterial species, including Citrobacter freundii and
Enterobacter ludwigii. The crrBAC-kexD cluster is proposed
to have been acquired by the ancestor of the K. pneumoniae
complex from other bacterial species and the cluster may have
been lost and re-acquired repeatedly in K. pneumoniae strains
according to the phylogenetic analysis. The dynamic evolution
of the crrBAC-kexD cluster suggests that it may have other
roles, in addition to colistin resistance, in bacterial physiology.

Abstract
-
A reducing system of SoxR, a regulator of redox-active molecules,
was identified as rsxABCDGE gene products and RseC
in Escherichia coli through genetic studies. We found that
ApbE was an additional component of the reducer system.
Bacterial two hybrid analysis revealed that these proteins indeed
had multiple interactions among themselves. RseC and
RsxB formed the core of the complex, interacting with more
than five other components. RsxC, the only cytoplasmic component
of the system, interacted with SoxR. It might be linked
with the rest of the complex via RsxB. Membrane fractions
containing the wild type complex but not the mutant complex
reduced purified SoxR using NADH as an electron source.
These results suggest that Rsx genes, RseC, and ApbE can
form a complex using NAD(P)H to reduce SoxR.

Abstract
-
A Gram-negative, non-motile, aerobic, catalase-, and oxidasepositive
bacterial strain, designated DCY117T, was isolated
from ginseng cultivated soil in Gochang-gun, Republic of
Korea, and was characterized taxonomically using a multifaceted
approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed
that strain DCY117T showed highest similarity to Lysobacter
ruishenii CTN-1T (95.3%). Phylogenetic analysis revealed
that closely related relatives of strain DCY117T were L. aestuarii
S2-CT (95.1%), L. daejeonensis GH1-9T (95.0%), and
L. caeni BUT-8T (94.9%). Diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG),
phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and phosphatidylethanolamine
(PE) were the major polar lipids of strain DCY117T. The major
isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The major cellular fatty
acids of strain DCY117T were iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and summed
feature 9 (comprising iso-C17:1 ω9c and/or 10-methyl-C16:0).
Genomic DNA G + C content was 61.8 mol%. On the basis of
our findings, strain DCY117T is a novel species in the genus
Lysobacter. We propose the name Lysobacter panacihumi sp.
nov., and the type strain is DCY117T (= KCTC 62019T = JCM
32168T).

Abstract
-
A Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated
IPC6T, was isolated from soil in an arid region of
Goyang-si (Gyeonggi-do, South Korea). Cells were strictly
aerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped. The strain grew
within a temperature range of 10–42°C (optimum, 30°C)
and pH of 5.0–11.0 (optimum, pH 8.0) in the presence of
0–2% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetically, the novel strain was
closely related to members of the Lysobacter genus based on
16S rRNA sequence similarity, and showed the highest sequence
similarity to Lysobacter niastensis KACC 11588T
(98.5%). The predominant fatty acids were iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0,
and summed feature 9 (iso-C17:1 ω9c), with Q-8 identified
as the major ubiquinone. The polar lipid content included
diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol,
an unknown aminophospholipid, and an
unidentified phospholipid. DNA-DNA hybridization results
indicated that the strain IPC6T was distinct from Lysobacter
niastensis KACC 11588T (37.9 ± 0.14%), Lysobacter panacisoli
KACC 17502T (56.4 ± 0.13%), Lysobacter soli KCTC
22011T (8.1 ± 0.04%), Lysobacter gummosus KCTC 12132T
(9.6 ± 0.03%), and Lysobacter cavernae KCTC 42875T (37.5 ±
0.14%), respectively. The DNA G + C content of the novel
strain was 71.1 mol%. Based on the collective phenotypic,
genotypic and chemotaxonomic data, the IPC6T strain is considered
to represent a novel species in the genus Lysobacter,
for which the name Lysobacter pedocola sp. nov. (= KCTC
42811T = JCM 31020T) is proposed.

Abstract
-
A Gram-negative, motile, aerobic and rod-shaped bacterial
strain designated 119BY6-57T was isolated from spongin. The
taxonomic position of the novel isolate was confirmed using
the polyphasic approach. Strain 119BY6-57T grew well at 25–
30°C on marine agar. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence
similarity, strain 119BY6-57T belongs to the family Xanthomonadaceae
and is related to Lysobacter aestuarii S2-CT
(99.8% sequence similarity), L. maris KMU-14T (97.5%), and
L. daejeonensis GH1-9T (97.3%). Lower sequence similarities
(97.0%) were found with all of the other recognized members
of the genus Lysobacter. The G + C content of the genomic
DNA was 69.9 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was Q-8
and the major fatty acids were C16:0 iso, C15:0 iso, summed feature
9 (comprising C17:1 iso ω9c and/or C16:0 10-methyl), summed
feature 3 (comprising C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c), and
C11:0 iso 3-OH. The polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol,
phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified
phospholipids, and an unidentified polar lipid. DNADNA
relatedness values between strain 119BY6-57T and its
closest phylogenetically neighbors were below 48.0 ± 2.1%.
Based on genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, it is concluded
that strain 119BY6-57T is a new member within the genus
Lysobacter, for which the name Lysobacter spongiae sp.
nov. is proposed. The type strain is 119BY6-57T (= KACC
19276T = LMG 30077T).

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
-
A Gram-negative, aerobic, rod shaped, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, designated Dae08T, was isolated from sediment of the stream near Daechung dam in South Korea, and was characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position, using a polyphasic approach. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis
showed that strain Dae08T belongs to the family Xanthomonadaceae of the Gammaproteobacteria, and is related to Lysobacter brunescens ATCC 29482T (97.3%). The phylogenetic distances from any other species with validly published names within the genus Lysobacter were greater than 3.7%. The G+C contents of
the genomic DNA of strain Dae08T was 69.3 mol%. The detection of a quinone system with Q-8 as the predominant compound and a fatty acid profile with iso-C15:0, iso-C17:1 ω9c, iso-C17:0, iso-C16:0, and iso-C11:0 3-OH as the major acids supported the affiliation of strain Dae08T to the genus Lysobacter. DNA-DNA relatedness between strain Dae08T and its phylogenetically closest neighbour was 28%. On the basis of its phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain Dae08T (= KCTC 12600T) should be classified in the genus Lysobacter as the novel species, for which the name Lysobacter daecheongensis sp. nov. is
proposed.
