The facultative plant endophyte Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 synthesizes two high‐molecular‐weight lipopolysaccharides, LPSI and LPSII, which comprise identical d‐rhamnan O‐polysaccharides and, presumably different core oligosaccharides. Previously, using random insertion mutagenesis, we constructed the LpsII− mutant KM139 of strain Sp245 that possessed an Omegon‐Km insertion in plasmid AZOBR_p6. Here, we found that in KM139, Omegon‐Km disrupted the coding sequence AZOBR_p60126 for a putative glycosyltransferase related to mannosyltransferases and rhamnosyltransferases. To verify its function, we cloned the AZOBR_p60126 gene of strain Sp245 in the expression vector plasmid pRK415 and transferred the construct pRK415–p60126 into KM139. In the complemented mutant KM139 (pRK415–p60126), the wild‐type LPSI+ LPSII+ profile was recovered. We also compared the swimming and swarming motilities of strains Sp245, Sp245 (pRK415), KM139, KM139 (pRK415), and KM139 (pRK415–p60126). All these strains had the same flagellar‐dependent swimming speeds, but on soft media, the LpsI+ LpsII− strains KM139 and KM139 (pRK415) swarmed significantly faster than the other LpsI+ LpsII+ strains. Such interstrain differences in swarming motility were more pronounced on 0.4% than on 0.5% soft agar plates. These data show that the AZOBR_p60126‐encoded putative glycosyltransferase significantly affects the lipopolysaccharide profile and, as a consequence, the social motility of azospirilla.

质粒基因AZOBR_p60126影响巴西固螺菌Sp245中脂多糖II的生物合成和集群运动

兼性植物内生菌 Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 合成两种高分子量脂多糖 LPSI 和 LPSII,它们包含相同的 d-鼠李聚糖 O-多糖和可能不同的核心寡糖。以前,我们使用随机插入诱变构建了菌株 Sp245 的 LpsII− 突变体 KM139,该菌株在质粒 AZOBR_p6 中具有 Omegon-Km 插入。在这里,我们发现在 KM139 中,Omegon-Km 破坏了与甘露糖基转移酶和鼠李糖基转移酶相关的假定糖基转移酶的编码序列 AZOBR_p60126。为了验证其功能,我们在表达载体质粒 pRK415 中克隆了 Sp245 菌株的 AZOBR_p60126 基因,并将构建体 pRK415–p60126 转移到 KM139 中。在互补突变体 KM139 (pRK415–p60126) 中,恢复了野生型 LPSI+ LPSII+ 谱。我们还比较了菌株 Sp245、Sp245 (pRK415)、KM139、KM139 (pRK415) 和 KM139 (pRK415–p60126) 的游动和集群运动。所有这些菌株都具有相同的鞭毛依赖性游泳速度,但在软介质上,LpsI+ LpsII-菌株 KM139 和 KM139 (pRK415) 的游动速度明显快于其他 LpsI+ LpsII+ 菌株。这种群居运动的种间差异在 0.4% 上比在 0.5% 软琼脂平板上更明显。这些数据表明,AZOBR_p60126 编码的推定糖基转移酶显着影响脂多糖谱,因此,影响固氮螺菌的社会运动。LpsI+ LpsII- 菌株 KM139 和 KM139 (pRK415) 的聚集速度明显快于其他 LpsI+ LpsII+ 菌株。这种群居运动的种间差异在 0.4% 上比在 0.5% 软琼脂平板上更明显。这些数据表明,AZOBR_p60126 编码的推定糖基转移酶显着影响脂多糖谱,因此,影响固氮螺菌的社会运动。LpsI+ LpsII- 菌株 KM139 和 KM139 (pRK415) 的聚集速度明显快于其他 LpsI+ LpsII+ 菌株。这种群居运动的种间差异在 0.4% 上比在 0.5% 软琼脂平板上更明显。这些数据表明,AZOBR_p60126 编码的推定糖基转移酶显着影响脂多糖谱,因此,影响固氮螺菌的社会运动。
