人类病原体沙眼衣原体通过多表型发育周期进行,其中每种细胞形式在发病机制中具有不同的作用。了解调节这一复杂循环的机制历来受到有限的遗传工具的阻碍。为了解决这个问题,我们开发了一个翻译控制系统,使用合成的核糖开关来调节衣原体的基因表达。在这里,我们证明了通过核糖开关的翻译控制可以与广泛的启动子在C。沙眼用茶碱诱导的合成核糖开关E用于替换合成启动子T5-lac、pgp 4质粒基因的天然衣原体启动子和脱水四环素响应性启动子的核糖体结合位点。在所有的情况下,核糖开关抑制翻译,茶碱诱导蛋白质的高水平表达。将泰特转录诱导型启动子与核糖开关的翻译控制相结合导致了强抑制,并允许克隆和表达有效的衣原体调节蛋白HctB。独立于启动子特异性控制基因表达的时间和强度的能力是研究衣原体调控和毒力基因的一个新的重要工具。
The human pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis proceeds through a multi phenotypic developmental cycle with each cell form specialized for different roles in pathogenesis. Understanding the mechanisms regulating this complex cycle has historically been hampered by limited genetic tools. In an effort to address this issue, we developed a translational control system to regulate gene expression in Chlamydia using a synthetic riboswitch. Here we demonstrate that translational control via a riboswitch can be used in combination with a wide range of promoters in C. trachomatis. The synthetic riboswitch E, inducible with theophylline, was used to replace the ribosome binding site of the synthetic promoter T5-lac, the native chlamydial promoter of the pgp4 plasmid gene and an anhydrotetracycline responsive promoter. In all cases the riboswitch inhibited translation, and high levels of protein expression was induced with theophylline. Combining the Tet transcriptional inducible promoter with the translational control of the riboswitch resulted in strong repression and allowed for the cloning and expression of the potent chlamydial regulatory protein, HctB. The ability to control the timing and strength of gene expression independently from promoter specificity is a new and important tool for studying chlamydial regulatory and virulence genes.
