项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Each year, 100,000 Americans perish due to untreatable bacterial infections. The societal benefits of new antibiotic compounds that are effective against numerous multiple drug resistant pathogens would be significant. The best possible source for new antibiotic scaffolds with potentially novel mechanisms of action is within natural environments, particularly soils, which have the greatest diversity of microbial life. Our recent research advances the science of metagenomics, the cloning of DNA from entire microbial communities, to discover novel antibiotics and identify the best lead candidates for clinical development. A team of scientists from academia and Lucigen Corporation have united four key technological breakthroughs that together resulted in the next generation metagenomic library. This library combined 1) an improved methodology for the isolation and purification of high molecular weight genomic DNA from soil microorganisms; 2) a new broad host range shuttle vector for enhanced expression of cloned DNAs; 3) a random shear cloning method to produce very large insert sizes (>100 kb); and 4) a rapid and improved screening method to identify antibiotic-producing clones within a metagenomic library. The library was screened against a clinical isolate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), resulting in the identification of 28 metagenomic clones that produce anti-MRSA compounds, a hit rate of 1 in 685. Twelve of these anti-MRSA clones were analyzed by sequencing and found to have very large insert sizes (average 113.5 kb) and novel genetic diversity not encountered before. Moreover, one of the clones was found to produce a novel metabolite. These results are 10-100 fold more efficient than previous efforts. However, the primary bottleneck now is elucidating the structure of these compounds. Conventional technologies often require many man-years of effort to elucidate a single structure. This Phase I research proposal endeavors to improve that level by approximately ten-fold. In fact we propose to find new small molecules from this next generation metagenomics library by screening for structures. If successful the rate of natural product discovery could be accelerated many fold compared to functional based screens. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: In the fight against microbial infectious disease we are losing ground due to the development of antibiotic resistance and our inability to find replacement drugs. The loss of life and the burden of treatment is a significant public health threat to American citizens. The proposed research unleashes a new set of tools for drug discovery that is 10-100 times more efficient than conventional technologies.
描述(由申请人提供):每年有10万美国人死于无法治愈的细菌感染。对多种多重耐药病原体有效的新型抗生素化合物的社会效益将是显著的。具有潜在新作用机制的新型抗生素支架的最佳来源是自然环境,特别是具有最大多样性微生物生命的土壤。我们最近的研究推动了宏基因组学的发展,从整个微生物群落中克隆DNA,以发现新的抗生素并确定临床开发的最佳候选药物。来自学术界和Lucigen公司的一组科学家联合了四项关键技术突破,共同产生了下一代宏基因组库。该文库结合了1)从土壤微生物中分离和纯化高分子量基因组DNA的改进方法;2)一种新的宽宿主范围穿梭载体,用于增强克隆dna的表达;3)随机剪切克隆方法产生非常大的插入尺寸(> 100kb);4)在宏基因组文库中鉴定产生抗生素的克隆的快速和改进的筛选方法。该文库与耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)临床分离物进行筛选,鉴定出28个产生抗MRSA化合物的宏基因组克隆,命中率为1 / 685。通过测序分析这些抗mrsa克隆中的12个,发现它们具有非常大的插入长度(平均113.5 kb)和以前从未遇到过的新的遗传多样性。此外,其中一个克隆被发现产生一种新的代谢物。这些结果比以前的努力效率高10-100倍。然而,目前的主要瓶颈是阐明这些化合物的结构。传统技术通常需要许多人年的努力来阐明一个单一的结构。第一阶段的研究计划努力将这一水平提高大约10倍。事实上,我们建议通过筛选结构来从下一代宏基因组文库中寻找新的小分子。如果成功,天然产物的发现速度将比基于功能的筛选加快许多倍。
