项目摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY
Bacterial cells surround themselves with a peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall, an essential structure that resists
changes in osmotic pressure and other environmental insults. To a certain degree, PG is also essential to
humans as antibiotics target its destruction and fragments activate immune responses. The basic building
blocks of PG have been known for over fifty years; however, the higher architectural features of this polymer
and complete set of immunostimulating fragments remain unknown. We hypothesize that differences in overall
PG structure and fragment generation are important for sensing pathogenic bacteria. The glycan of the PG is
essential for immune recognition; study of this important structure has been hampered by a lack of tools to
label and track the fate of PG carbohydrate precursors and the resultant polymer in living cells. Currently,
researchers are limited to few carbohydrate probes and even fewer larger fragments. Chemical synthesis is
laborious and challenging to even expert carbohydrate chemists. The goal of this U01 proposal is to develop a
method to label the glycan of the PG in a range of microbes to facilitate identification, tracking, manipulation
and analysis of the glycans derived from PG with their biological binding partners and determine their functions.
We propose to utilize a metabolic labeling approach in which the necessary functionalized PG biosynthetic
building blocks are synthesized, provided to the microbe and incorporated in the backbone of the polymer. This
has not been done before as the synthesis of the UDP-sugar building blocks is challenging and the uptake and
processing pathways for the free sugars are not widely distributed. To overcome this challenge we propose
parallel approaches which utilize either chemoenzymatic synthesis or genetic engineering. The bacterial PG
recycling enzymes, AmgK and MurU have relaxed substrate specificity for N-acetyl-muramic acid lactols,
allowing the production of labeled UDP-PG precursors. In Aim One, a large-scale chemoenzymatic synthesis
of a variety of UDP-PG derivatives will be optimized and these molecules will be provided to a variety of
pathogenic and commensal microbes for subsequent PG incorporation. Kits will be developed to distribute
these essential carbohydrates. For Aim Two tagged lactol substrates will be provided to cells whose genomes
have been engineered to encode for AmgK and MurU. As Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis are amendable
to this approach, this methodology will be extended to pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) as well as commensal bacteria. Aim Three will showcase the utility of this
method for immunologists and microbiologists: (1) glycan-containing immunostimulatory molecules from Mtb,
and Hp will be tracked, sorted and identified; (2) Hp and Mtb's PG structural features related to pathogenesis
and antibiotic susceptibility will be interrogated. This innovative carbohydrate metabolic labeling method for
peptidoglycan will be an approachable yet powerful technique for biomedical researchers and a valuable
addition to the Glycoscience Consortium.
