项目摘要
Heme is a central molecule in the biology of life. Its unique chemical properties make it a
versatile co-factor in many biological reactions. Heme is also an important source of iron for
bacteria. In this regard, bacteria use surface proteins to import host heme and then break the
heme ring to release the iron. This latter reaction is catalyzed by proteins termed heme
degrading enzymes (HDEs). Because of their iron-liberating properties and the importance of
iron in bacterial physiology, HDEs have emerged as critical during the infection of mammalian
hosts.
The sporulating bacterium B. anthracis is the causative agent of anthrax disease and a
weapon of bioterrorism. This Gram-positive rod grows to extraordinary levels in vertebrate hosts
and thus serves as a model for iron uptake. Previous work with this pathogen uncovered an
elegant system of surface and secreted hemophores that import host heme. The biological
consequences of heme import in terms of the lifecycle of this pathogen have not been
determined. Preliminary data presented here suggests B. anthracis encodes three distinct
HDEs, all of which break down heme. This finding raises the interesting question as to why B.
anthracis would require three seemingly redundant HDEs.
It is proposed here that each HDE may be important during different phases of a developing
B. anthracis infection. In Aim 1, an inhalational model of infection, the most serious clinical form,
is used to determine the contribution of each HDE to anthrax disease. In Aim 2, the functional
role of each HDE is probed in three important host niches: protection from host killing by
alveolar macrophages, the detoxification of excess heme, and the utilization of iron from host
hemoglobin in blood. These studies will determine if HDEs are anti-anthrax targets and where in
the bacillus infection cycle they function.
