Resumo: Aminopeptidases realizam a clivagem de resíduos de aminoácidos de peptídios e proteínas. Elas estão presentes em todos os organismos e desempenham importantes papéis em processamento de alimentos, maturação de proteínas pela eliminação do resíduo de metionina Nterminal, patogenicidade e muitos outros processos celulares. Neste trabalho foi realizada a clonagem, expressão, purificação e caracterização de uma prolina iminopeptidase de Xylella fastidiosa(Xf1510) e de uma aminopeptidase de Xanthomonasaxonopodispv. citri (Xac2987). Estes dois genes foram anotados como prováveis prolina iminopeptidases. Ambos foram clonados em vetor de expressão pET15b, expressados em Escherichiacoli, e purificados na fração solúvel em um passo por cromatografia a metal imobilizado (IMAC). Ensaios de atividade enzimática confirmaram que a Xf1510 é uma prolina iminopeptidase, e que a Xac2987 é uma aminopeptidase de amplo espectro e não uma prolina iminopeptidase como foi anotada no banco de dados, sendo capaz de catalisar a remoção de diferentes aminoácidos de substratos sintéticos. Os espectros de dicroísmo circular das enzimas mostram que ambas podem ser incluídas na família das a/ß a/ß hidrolases e que estão enoveladas. A proteína Xf1510 apresenta maior atividade na faixa de pH entre 7,5 e 8,5. A temperatura ótima para hidrólise de prolina foi 45ºC. O pH ótimo para a atividade enzimática da proteína Xac2987 foi encontrado na faixa de pH de 6,5 e 7,5; sendo o pH ótimo 6,6. Neste pH a temperatura ótima para a hidrólise de alanina foi encontrada à 40ºC. Estudos estruturais com relação ao pH e estabilidade térmica das proteínas foram acompanhados por dicroísmo circular. Estudos de desnaturação térmica e química indicam que as proteínas Xf1510 e Xac2987 apresentam estados intermediários antes de atingirem o desenovelamento máximo
Abstract: Aminopeptidases release the Nterminal amino acid residue from polypeptides and proteins. They are present in all organisms and play several important roles in food processing, maturation of proteins by elimination of the Nterminal methionine, pathogenicity and many other cellular processes. We report here, the cloning, expression, purification and characterization of a proline iminopeptidase from X.fastidiosa(Xf1510) and a broad specificity aminopeptidase from X.axonopodispv. citri(Xac2987). These two genes have been annotated as putative proline iminopeptidase. Both genes were cloned into the pET15b expression vector, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified to apparent homogeneity in one step by IMAC. The protein was expressed in the soluble fraction and could be purified in one step by IMAC. Enzymatic assays confirmed Xf1510 as a PIP, and Xac2987 as a broad spectrum aminopeptidase, being able to catalyze the removal of different synthetic substrates. The circular dichroism spectrum allowed us to classify the proteins as part of the a/ß hydrolyses family. Structural studies with pH dependence and thermal stability were preformatted by circular dichroism. The Xf1510 protein presents greater activity in the range of pH between 7,5 and 8,5. The optimum temperature for prolina hydrolysis was 45ºC. The pH optimum for the enzymatic activity of the Xac2987 protein was found in the range of pH of 6,5 and 7,5; being pH optimum 6,6. In this pH the temperature for alanine hydrolysis was found to 40ºC. Structural studies with regard to pH and thermal stability of proteins had been followed by circular dichroism. Studies of thermal and chemical denaturation indicate that the proteins Xf1510 and Xac2987 present intermediate states before reaching the maximum unfolding

Full textThe causal agent of bacterial canker, Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa),has been responsible ofthree epidemics since 1980’s.Psa is divided in three biovars. The most recent and severe outbreak (causedby Psa biovar 3) was detected for the first time in Italy in 2008. It has spread very quickly in the main kiwifruit producing countries, as in France in 2010. We analyzed the diversity of 280 strains of P. syringae isolated fromkiwifruit in France. The biological characterization and the phylogenetic analysis of the strains by MLSArevealed that the biovars 1, 2 and 3 belong to the same genetic lineage, which include P. s. pv. theae, as well.The biovar 4 strains, which are structured in 4 distinct genetic lineages, have been grouped in a new pathovar(Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidifoliorum (Psaf)). These strains are characterized by a low virulence (onlyspots on leaves and no canker on wood). This new classification help with the management of the bacterialkiwifruit canker outbreaks. The development of an MLVA scheme composed of 11 VNTRs allowed to studythe genetic structuration of Psa biovar 3 populations, to reveal the diversity within this pathovar and to identifythe Italian origin of the epidemic in France. The genome sequencing of five Psaf strains and the comparisonbetween these sequences and those of Psa and Psaf genomes already available on NCBI, allowed thedevelopment of a new detection tool by real-time PCR, specific of each Psa biovar and of Psaf. The MLVA andthe real-time PCR based detection technique developed here will contribute to the improvement of the monitoringof kiwifruit bacterial canker around the world

Full textN-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is an amino sugar that carries out important roles in a broad range of cells from bacteria to plants and animals. Most marine bacteria and insect pathogens have developed sophisticated mechanisms for the catabolism of the second most abundant biopolymer in nature, chitin, which is a GlcNAc homopolymer. However, whether non-chitinolytic bacteria find GlcNAc in their environment and what is the natural source of this molecule remain obscure. The data presented here suggest that the plant pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. Campestris (Xcc), the causal agent of black rot disease of Brassicaceae, encounters and exploits GlcNAc of plant origin during infection. Characterization of the Xcc GlcNAc utilization pathway and its complex regulatory network led to the identification of specific traits as compared to other bacteria and most notably the source of GlcNAc, i. E. Glycans from plant glycosylated proteins. An outer membrane transporter and glycoside hydrolases belonging to the Xcc GlcNAc utilization pathway were shown to play a direct role in the generation of GlcNAc in planta

Full textThe HR is a defense strategy. The interaction between G.hirsutum and Xcm is governed by the gene-for-gene concept. The infection of the cultivar Reba B50 that contains B2B3 R genes by race Xcm18 leads to a HR associated with a LOX activity response involved in peroxidation of lipids and with transcription of GhLOX1. First, 6 genotypes of G. hirsutum containing various R genes were tested to analyze the variability of the LOX response following the infection by Xcm1, 18 or 20. Several criteria were investigated including the phenotype, the water loss, the LOX activity and GhLOX1 transcription. The results showed variation in HR phenotype according to the tested R genes. For each type of the incompatible interaction, LOX activity and transcription of GhLOX1 were always significantly increased paralleled the apparition of the HR symptoms and the decrease in the water content. LOX response (enzymatic activity and GhLOX1 transcription) is associated with HR whatever the genotype of both Xcm races and cotton plant. Thus, the GhLOX1 consider as a molecular marker of the cotton specific resistance to Xcm. Second, the role of the GhLOX1 gene in the execution of the cotton HR to Xcm by analyzing its possible function by over-expression, the cotyledons were transformed with the GhLOX1 coding sequence fused to the CaMV35S. These transformed cotyledons revealed (i) a LOX activity significantly higher than that detected in the control, showing that the GhLOX1 encodes for an active protein and (ii) that the phenotype of these cotyledons was indistinguishable as compared to the non transformed cotyledons, except when the HR symptoms were induced in some GhLOX1-over-expressed cotyledons. The effect of agro-infiltration on expression of some plant genes during the transformation revealed early and nonspecific induction of the expression of defense genes. This work constitutes a preliminary investigation for the functional analysis of the GhLOX1 in order to assess its role in the cotton specific resistance to Xcm

Full textMany studies have reported an imbalance of bacterial flora in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), defined as a dysbiosis, and resulting in an increase in potentially pathogenic bacteria versus a decrease in beneficial bacteria. Previous studies have highlighted the presence of pathogenic strains of E. coli in patients with CD. These strains belong to the pathovar Adherent Invasive E. coli (AIEC) and are characterized by their ability to adhere and invade intestinal epithelial cells, to survive and to multiply in macrophages by inducing an intense synthesis of TNF. In recent years, many studies established a link between AIEC pathovar and CD. Many of these studies have been performed on biopsies of patients with CD. And although the mechanisms of pathogenicity and virulence of the AIEC strain are clearly determined, there are no in-depth studies on the prevalence of AIEC in feces in IBD patients in comparison to healthy individuals. Thus, the goal of this thesis project is to better understand the involvement of AIEC pathovars in IBD at the luminal level. This thesis is based more precisely on the study of the prevalence of AIEC in feces of patients with IBD in comparison to healthy subjects, targeting different points: prevalence and detection of AIEC, their relative proportion compared to total E. coli flora, their invasion capacity, their phylogroup as well as their transmissibility. AIEC are found at luminal level in patients with CD but also in patients with UC, with detection of AIEC in 33% and 2% respectively. In addition, a higher prevalence of these pathovar is present in the feces of healthy individuals (51%) compared to patients with IBD. And when AIEC are present, both in IBD patients and in controls, they represent on average 20 to 30% of the E. coli flora. We have also been able to show that there are no significant differences in AIEC invasion scores in patients with IBD and in healthy subjects. Some AIEC strains, isolated in patients with CD and in healthy subjects, have been genetically characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Different genetic profiles have been obtained attesting the high intra- and interindividual variability of AIEC strains. In conclusion, because of their high prevalence in healthy individuals, AIEC should be reconsidered as pathobionts, which defines a symbiont acquiring virulent properties in a genetically predisposed host due to environmental and / or dietary factors and thus promoting intestinal inflammation

Full textReunion island, where our work took place, is the only french citrus aera where citrus canker occurs. This disease is caused by a bacterium: Xanthomonas campestris pathovar citri (X. C. Pv. C. ). The aim of the present study was a better understanding of the epidemiology of the disease, so, we have, first, researched a reliable detection and identification method of the causal agent on contaminated host tissues. The biochemical and cytological study of seventy-nine strains of X. C. Pv. C. Showed hydrolysis and assimilation of starch and opening the B-lactam cycle of some antibiotics as constant properties of all the strains. That lead us to develop the semi-selective medium L. P. A’. A. Which hinders the development of saprophytic bacteria. Its use combinated with a complementary bank of seventeen bioassays allows a good identification of the causal agent. During the epidemiological study, we have checked the infection took place, in young leaves, specially by wounds. Nevertheless, no ground inhibitor of X. C. Pv. C. Has been discovered in some resistant host parts. Four stages have been described in the symptom evolution and the appearance of the two first seems to be in relation with host sensibility. The diameter of lesions, observed on the same host and in a given aera, does not show difference of aggressivity between several strains. That would be better express by the total number of lesions. On the tree, the disease progress from bottom to top of the young twig and strong winds have an effect upon its spread in an orchard. Orchard spaying comparative assays with some chemicals do not yield satisfying results to contain the disease. However, sodium hypochlorite remains a good surface desinfectant and its application on fruits avoids the post-harvest spread of X. C. Pv. C

Full textBacterial black spot, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. Mangiferaeindicae is an important disease of mango. Several plant genera of the Anacardiaceae family are hosts for xanthomonads. Despite the existence of a great variability between these xanthomonads, these strains are assigned in the single pathovar mangiferaeindicae. Moreover Xanthomonads causing disease on Anacardiaceae were not included in any recent taxonomic studies on the genus Xanthomonas. Our aim was to use a polyphasic approach to resolve the complexity of pathovar mangiferaeindicae, and to define the taxonomic position of strains isolated from Anacardiaceae. Both AFLP and pathogenicity tests allow the separation of these xanthomonads in three lineages, distinct genetically and distinct by their host specificity, supporting the classification in three pathovars, genetically closed to strains representative of Xanthomonas axonopodis sensu Vauterin: mangiferaeindicae, anacardii et spondiae. The polyphasic characterization using AFLP and MLSA approaches compared to DNA / DNA hybridization and thermal stability values indicated that Xanthomonads associated to Anacardiaceae are pathovars of the new species Xanthomonas citri. The contribution of AFLP and MLSA techniques as an alternative to DNA / DNA hybridization is evaluated for genus Xanthomonas taxonomy. Our polyphasic approach shows the incongruence between classifications based respectively on phylogeny, and on pathogenicity

Full textXanthomonas campestris causes diseases on Brassicaceae family including black rot that is considered as the most important diseases of cruciferous plant. This bacterial species groups six pathovars defined according to the type of symptoms that they induce to the host plant from which they were isolated and according to their host range. However doubts have been expressed about the synonymy of some pathovars within X. Campestris. It has been necessary to identify pathovars without ambiguity in order to improve strategies against these pathogens. Although sources of contamination are various, seeds constitute the primary inoculum and their sanitary control thus appears as the most efficient disease control strategy. Our objectives have been to clarify the pathogenicity and the genetic structure of the species then to propose a new diagnostic tool that permits the fast and valuable detection of viable X. Campestris in seeds. Pathogenicity study of X. Campestris species revealed the existence of only three pathovars that can induce disease, X. C. Pv. Campestris causes the black rot disease, X. C. Pv. Raphani induces the leaf spots disease and X. C. Pv. Incanae causes the bacterial blight of garden Stocks. We discussed on the Xanthomonas genus taxonomy based on MLSA data. Our genetic analysis shows how particularly complex and polymorphic is X. Campestris. This diversity is the consequence of two evolutionary forces, recombination and mutation, with equally importance. However, this species keeps a clonality structure owing to a tightly host communality within Brassicaceae host. Pathovars are not genetic lineage, but there are not shuffled and share close sequences. We have set up a detection method of viable X. Campestris in seeds by BIO-PCR. The BIO-PCR can detect until 10 ufc/ml in seed extract

Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (Xcc) is a Gram-negative bacterium and the causal agent of black rot disease in cruciferous plants. The exopolysaccharides (EPS) are one of the important virulence factors, whose biosynthesis is regulated by the rpf (regulation of pathogenicity factors) genes cluster. Mutants of rpfB、rpfF、rpfG and rpfC were constructed by insertional mutagenesis. It has previously been shown that rpfF、rpfC and rpfG mutants are avirulent and exhibit a decreased level of EPS. Nevertheless, a rpfB mutant displays little phenotypical change. Xcc is motile by using a single polar flagellum. In this work, experiments were carried out to elucidate the role of rpf genes on the bacterial motility as well as on the expression of flagellar genes in the transcriptional and translational level. The results showed that, 1) electron microscopy demonstrated that rpfC and rpfF mutants have no flagellum and rpfB, rpfG mutants have single flagellum. 2) Spot test result demonstrated that a rpfF mutant become resistant to the infection of bacteriophage L7. 3) In the transcriptional level, rpfC、rpfG and rpfF genes positively control the expression of flagellar genes flgG、flhF、fliC、fliQ、fliE and fliL promoter activity. rpfB positively regulate the promoter activity of flgB、fliQ、fliC and flhF genes and rpfC、rpfF positively regulate the promoter activity of flgB. 4) In the translational level, rpfC positively regulates the expression of FliC and FliA; rpfF positively regulates the expression of FliA、FliC and FlhF; rpfG positively regulates the expression of FliC and FliA.
