Two Gram-stain negative, yellow-pigmented, and mesophilic bacteria, designated strains R7T and R19T, were isolated from sandy and forest soil, South Korea, respectively. Both strains were non-motile rods showing catalase- and oxidase-positive activities. Both strains were shown to grow at 10–37°C and pH 6.0–9.0, and in the presence of 0–1.5% (w/v) NaCl. Strain R7T contained iso-C14:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and summed feature 9 (comprising C16:0 10-methyl and/or iso-C17:1 ω9c), whereas strain R19T contained iso-C11:0 3-OH, C16:1 ω7c alcohol, iso-C11:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and summed feature 9 (comprising C16:0 10-methyl and/or iso-C17:1 ω9c) as major cellular fatty acids (> 5%). Both strains contained ubiquinone- 8 as the sole isoprenoid quinone and phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and an unidentified phospholipid as the major polar lipids. The DNA G + C contents of strains R7T and R19T calculated from their genomes were 66.9 mol% and 68.9 mol%, respectively. Strains R7T and R19T were most closely related to Lysobacter panacisoli C8-1T and Lysobacter niabensis GH34-4T with 98.7% and 97.8% 16S rRNA sequence similarities, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains R7T and R19T formed distinct phylogenetic lineages within the genus Lysobacter. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and molecular features, strains R7T and R19T represent novel species of the genus Lysobacter, for which the names Lysobacter arenosi sp. nov. and Lysobacter solisilvae sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains of L. arenosi and L. solisilvae are R7T (= KACC 21663T = JCM 34257T) and R19T (= KACC 21767T = JCM 34258T), respectively.

Abstract

Acinetobacter baumannii is a notorious nosocomial pathogen that commonly infects severely ill patients. Zinc (Zn) is essential to survive and adapt to different environment and host niches in A. baumannii. Of the Zinc uptake regulator (Zur)-regulated genes in A. baumannii, the A1S_3412 gene encoding a Zur-regulated lipoprotein A (ZrlA) is critical for cell envelope integrity and overcoming antibiotic exposure. This study investigated whether ZrlA contributes to the fitness of A. baumannii in vitro and in vivo using the wildtype A. baumannii ATCC 17978, ΔzrlA mutant, and zrlAcomplemented strains. The ΔzrlA mutant showed reduced biofilm formation, surface motility, and adherence to and invasion of epithelial cells compared to the wild-type strain. In a mouse pneumonia model, the ΔzrlA mutant showed significantly lower bacterial numbers in the blood than the wildtype strain. These virulence traits were restored in the zrlAcomplemented strain. Under static conditions, the expression of csuCDE, which are involved in the chaperone-usher pili assembly system, was significantly lower in the ΔzrlA mutant than in the wild-type strain. Moreover, the expression of the bfmR/S genes, which regulate the CsuA/BABCDE system, was significantly lower in the ΔzrlA mutant under static conditions than in the wild-type strain. Our results indicate that the zrlA gene plays a role in the fitness of A. baumannii by regulating the BfmR/S two-component system and subsequently the CsuA/BABCDE chaperone-usher pili assembly system, suggesting it as a potential target for anti-virulence strategies against A. baumannii.
