细菌细胞壁是抗菌剂最重要的靶点之一。这些药物包括天然产物(如万古霉素)和源自先天免疫系统的蛋白质(如肽聚糖识别蛋白和溶葡萄球菌蛋白)。在感染人类的细菌病原体中,金黄色葡萄球菌(金黄色葡萄球菌)继续在全球范围内造成巨大的医疗负担。金黄色葡萄球菌已经进化出可以直接限制先天免疫蛋白的可及性的对策,有效地保护自己免受针对关键细胞井成分的威胁。我们最近描述了一种新的测定方法,直接报告了金黄色葡萄球菌细菌细胞壁内分子对肽聚糖层的可及性。该分析依赖于双正交处理的肽聚糖的位点特异性化学重塑。在这里,我们将我们的实验应用于筛选一个非冗余转座子突变文库,以检测肽聚糖层的易感性,目的是鉴定有助于控制细胞表面可及性的基因。我们发现了几个基因导致肽聚糖层的高可及性水平,并表明这些基因调节对溶葡萄球菌蛋白的敏感性。这些结果表明,该检测平台可用于进一步了解细菌细胞表面的生物学。
Bacterial cell walls represent one of the most prominent targets of antibacterial agents. These agents include natural products (e.g., vancomycin) and proteins stemming from the innate immune system (e.g., peptidoglycan-recognition proteins and lysostaphin). Among bacterial pathogens that infect humans, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) continues to impose a tremendous healthcare burden across the globe. S. aureus has evolved countermeasures that can directly restrict the accessibility of innate immune proteins, effectively protecting itself from threats that target key cell well components. We recently described a novel assay that directly reports on the accessibility of molecules to the peptidoglycan layer within the bacterial cell wall of S. aureus. The assay relies on site-specific chemical remodeling of the peptidoglycan with a biorthogonal handle. Here, we disclose the application of our assay to a screen of a nonredundant transposon mutant library for susceptibility of the peptidoglycan layer with the goal of identifying genes that contribute to the control of cell surface accessibility. We discovered several genes that resulted in higher accessibility levels to the peptidoglycan layer and showed that these genes modulate sensitivity to lysostaphin. These results indicate that this assay platform can be leveraged to gain further insight into the biology of bacterial cell surfaces.
