采用分子生物学方法,以霍乱弧菌lolB为靶基因设计特异性引物,进行了霍乱弧菌的PCR和环介导等温核酸扩增(Loop-mediated isothermal amplification,LAMP)检测技术研究,并对它们的特异性、灵敏性和实际应用进行了比较.结果表明,所建立的PCR检测霍乱弧菌的方法最低检测限为4.0× 103 CFU/ml; LAMP检测方法在65℃下恒温扩增60min,检测限为4.0×101 CFU/ml,反应产物加入荧光染料SYBR Green Ⅰ后反应液呈现明显的绿色;以温和气单胞菌、副溶血弧菌、鳗弧菌及美人鱼弧菌为对照菌株,检测结果均为阴性;霍乱弧菌人工染菌的8种水产品进行PCR及LAMP检测,结果均为阳性,而未染菌组均为阴性;PCR及LAMP检测霍乱弧菌的方法均具有灵敏度较高、特异性强等优点,且LAMP检测霍乱弧菌的方法灵敏度是PCR方法的100倍,更适合于养殖现场检测的推广使用.     

一株副溶血弧菌D3112致病性和抗药性的表征

副溶血弧菌广泛分布于海洋环境中,虽然大多数环境菌株并非致病菌,但它们常常携有毒力基因,从而具有潜在的致病性。本文从黄海(山东青岛)海水中分离到一株副溶血弧菌D3112,对其进行了全基因组测序、溶血实验和人工感染实验等。基因组测序分析发现D3112并不含有副溶血弧菌的致病性标志溶血素基因tdh和trh,这与PCR检测结果一致,但含有其他溶血素基因以及多种毒力相关基因。生物学实验显示,该菌可产生明显的溶血现象,而且具有蛋白酶、明胶酶、脂酶和淀粉酶活性,但是缺少卵磷脂酶活性。人工感染实验表明副溶血弧菌D3112具有致病性,感染斑马鱼的半致死剂量约为5×105CFU。药物敏感实验证明了D3112具有多重耐药性。本文对海洋环境中的副溶血弧菌D3112同时开展了基因型和表型研究,为准确评价环境细菌的潜在致病性提供了有用的数据信息。     

3种水产病原弧菌(Vibrio)的16S—23S rDNA间区(IGSs)的克隆、测序与分析

根据细菌16S rDNA3端和23S rDNA5端的高度保守区设计引物,PCR扩增了5株溶藻弧菌、2株河流弧菌和2株创伤弧菌的16S—23S rDNA间区,克隆到pGEM-T载体上,测序;采用BLAST和DNAstar软件对16S—23S rDNA间区序列及其内的tRNA基因进行比较分析研究。结果表明,3种弧菌共测出的16S—23S rDNA间区有33条,类型有6种:IGSGLAV、IGSGLV、IGSIA、IGSG、IGSA和IGS0,其中IGSIA和IGSG最为常见,9株弧菌均包含有此两类IGS;在3种弧菌中,大部分IGS序列tRNA基因两端的非编码区具有较高的种内同源性,可以成为设计种特异性引物和探针的靶区。16S—23S rDNA间区结构的差异为建立一类新的弧菌检测方法奠定了基础。溶藻弧菌的16S—23S rDNA间区序列为首次报道。     

鳗弧菌(Vibrio anguillarum)侵染对青蛤(Cyclina sinensis)髓样分化因子88基因表达的影响

经转录组测序后筛选并克隆得到青蛤(Cyclina sinensis)髓样分化因子88(myeloid differenttiation factor 88,My D88)的c DNA序列。在鳗弧菌(Vibrio anguillarum)胁迫下,采用荧光定量PCR法分析了My D88基因在青蛤体内的表达过程。结果显示,青蛤My D88基因的开放阅读框为1521bp,编码506个氨基酸,分子量约为57.14k Da,氨基酸N段存在DEATH结构域,C段存在TIR结构域(Toll/Interleukin-1 receptor domain)。My D88基因在青蛤血淋巴、肝脏、外套膜、鳃和闭壳肌等组织中普遍表达,但在血淋巴中表达量最高,与其它组织出现显著性差异(P0.05)。通过检测鳗弧菌刺激下My D88基因在青蛤血淋巴中的表达值,发现My D88基因在24h开始升高,48h达到最大值,约为对照组的10倍,实验组与对照组及空白组均出现了极显著性差异(P0.01);研究结果表明,该基因在软体动物的免疫应答反应中对革兰氏阴性菌有识别作用。     

Multiplex PCR allows simultaneous detection of pathogens in ships' ballast water

There is enormous potential for global transfer of microorganisms, including pathogens, in ships' ballast water. We contend that a major advancement in the study of ballast-water microorganisms in particular, and of aquatic pathogens in general, will be expedited sample analysis, such as provided by the elegant technology of DNA microarrays. In order to use DNA microarrays, however, one must establish the appropriate conditions to bind target sequences in samples to multiple probes on the microarrays. We conducted proof-of-concept experiments to optimize simultaneous detection of multiple microorganisms using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern hybridization. We chose three target organisms, all potentially found in ballast water: a calicivirus, the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, and the photosynthetic protist Aureococcus anophagefferens. Here, we show simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens is possible, a result supporting the promising future use of microarrays for simultaneous detection of pathogens in ballast water.     

Antagonism between coral pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus and other bacteria in the gastric cavity of scleractinian coral Galaxea fascicularis

Scleractinian corals host numerous microbial symbionts with different types of interactions. The gastric cavity of scleractinian coral, as a semiclosed subenvironment with distinct chemical characteristics(e.g., dissolved O2, pH, alkalinity, and nutrients), harbors a distinct microbial community and a diverse array of bacteria that can be pathogenic or beneficial. Galaxea fascicularis is one of the dominant massive scleractinian coral species on inshore fringing reefs in the northern South China Sea.Although the abundance of coral-associated bacteria has been investigated in G. fascicularis, less is known about the microorganisms in the gastric cavity. In this study, we specially isolated cultivable bacterial strains from the gastric cavity of G.fascicularis collected from Hainan Island using a noninvasive sampling approach. Among the 101 representative bacterial strains, one Vibrio coralliilyticus strain, SCSIO 43001, was found to be a temperature-dependent opportunistic pathogen of G.fascicularis. The antagonistic activity between the 100 strains and V. coralliilyticus SCSIO 43001 was tested using a modified Burkholder diffusion assay. Our results showed that V. coralliilyticus SCSIO 43001 inhibits the growth of Erythrobacter flavus and Sphingomonas yabuuchiae. Additionally, we found that three Pseudoalteromonas strains showed moderate to high antibacterial activity against V. coralliilyticus SCSIO 43001 and several other coral-associated Gram-negative bacterial strains.These results suggest that competition between the coral pathogen and other bacteria also occurs in the gastric cavity of coral, and Pseudoalteromonas strains in the gastric cavity of G. fascicularis may provide a protective role in the defense against coinhabiting coral pathogens at elevated temperature.     

副溶血弧菌特异性卵黄抗体(AHPND-VpIgY)对凡纳滨对虾幼体被动免疫和育苗成活率的影响

将抗高致病性副溶血弧菌(Vibrioparahaemolyticus)特异性卵黄抗体(AHPND-VpIgY)应用于育苗生产,通过测定氨氮、亚硝酸盐、细菌总数、弧菌总数、相对保护率和育苗成活率,评价了AHPND-VpIgY在育苗期对凡纳滨对虾(Litopenaeusvannamei)幼体的保护效果。结果表明,0.1g/m3和0.2g/m3AHPND-VpIgY组的相对保护率为35.7%和57.2%,两者均显著高于非特异性卵黄抗体组(P0.05);两组的育苗成活率为50.8%和57.2%,比对照组分别提高19.1%和25.6%。各实验组氨氮、亚硝酸盐、细菌总数及弧菌总数与对照组无显著差异,对水质无影响。综上,特异性的AHPND-VpIgY能在不改变水质的前提下,有效提高凡纳滨对虾幼体的存活率、相对保护率和育苗成活率,从而提高凡纳滨对虾苗种产量和质量。     

灿烂弧菌粘附相关因子VsA的表达及功能研究

为了探究灿烂弧菌中 Zn2+转运系统的细胞周质组分 VsA 的表达与功能,本实验采用 PCR 克隆 vsA 基因,实时荧光定量测定 vsA 基因的表达,利用抗体封闭实验研究 VsA 蛋白的功能。生物信息学分析表明 VsA 具有结合和转运 Zn2+的结构基础。实时荧光定量结果表明,vsA 的表达受 Zn2+调控,且具有浓度依赖性,0.01 mmol/L 的 Zn2+可使 vsA 的表达量下调至对照组的0.5倍,而添加等摩尔量的 Cu2+、Fe3+、Mg2+和 Ca2+对 vsA 的表达无明显影响。而 0.1 滋mol/L Zn2+则会诱导 vsA 的表达。此外,在大肠杆菌 Escherichia coli BL21 （DE3） 中进行了 VsA 的重组表达,制备了 VsA 的小鼠多克隆抗体。利用抗体封闭 VsA 蛋白可导致灿烂弧菌在 Zn2+限制条件下的生长受抑制,以及过氧化氢的能力和粘附效率的降低。本研究获得了灿烂弧菌的 vsA 基因,其表达受 Zn2+浓度调控,VsA 蛋白在灿烂弧菌生长、抗氧化以及粘附宿主细胞过程中发挥作用。
