植物乳杆菌素L-1对单核细胞增生李斯特氏菌作用机理的研究

Mode of action of plantaricin L-1, an antilisteria bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum

摘要:

以凝胶层析纯化的植物乳杆菌素作用单核细胞增生李斯特氏菌,结果表明该细菌素可以导致能量化的敏感细胞胞内K+、无机磷离子、乳酸脱氢酶、紫外吸收物质和ATP发生不同程度的泄漏,相应地破坏了膜Δψ和部分ΔpH,引起PMF的耗散,结果导致细胞的死亡。综合所测指标,可以推测植物乳杆菌素L-1对单增李斯特氏菌的作用目标主要是细胞膜,通过形成非选择性孔洞使得选择性离子和小分子生命物质外泄,从而打破原有平衡,最终引起细胞的衰亡。

Abstract:

Plantaricin L-1, an anti-Listeria bacteriocin, was produced by Lactobacillus plantarum and successfully purified by SP-Sepharose FF cation exchange chromatography. The mechanism on energized cells of Listeria monocytogenes was studied with purified plantaricin L-1. After adding plantaricin L-1 to Listeria monocytogenes at 64AU/mL, leakage of intercellular K⁺ ions, inorganic phosphate, lactic dehydrogenase, UV-absorbing materials and the intracellular ATP was observed, and the action resulted in the dissipation of the membrane potential (△ψ) and pH gradient (△pH), two components of the proton motive force (PMF). All the data suggested that the primary site of action of plantaricin L-1 was the cytoplasmic membrane of sensitive cells. By forming the nonselective pores which leak ions and small organic compounds plantaricin L-1 induced the cells death, this action was similar to membrane corruption caused by peptide effect. Penetrability increased due to the enlarged pore and dysfuction of membrane transporters, which ensured efficient killing of target bacteria.
