Complete Chromosome Sequence of a Mycolactone-Producing Mycobacterium, Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii.

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii is a fish pathogen that produces mycolactone. Here, we report the complete chromosome sequence of a type strain of M. pseudoshottsii (JCM 15466). The sequence will represent essential data for future phylogenetic and comparative genome studies of mycolactone-producing mycobacteria.

Evolution of Mycobacterium ulcerans and other mycolactone-producing mycobacteria from a common Mycobacterium marinum progenitor.

Project description:It had been assumed that production of the cytotoxic polyketide mycolactone was strictly associated with Mycobacterium ulcerans, the causative agent of Buruli ulcer. However, a recent study has uncovered a broader distribution of mycolactone-producing mycobacteria (MPM) that includes mycobacteria cultured from diseased fish and frogs in the United States and from diseased fish in the Red and Mediterranean Seas. All of these mycobacteria contain versions of the M. ulcerans pMUM plasmid, produce mycolactones, and show a high degree of genetic relatedness to both M. ulcerans and Mycobacterium marinum. Here, we show by multiple genetic methods, including multilocus sequence analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization, that all MPM have evolved from a common M. marinum progenitor to form a genetically cohesive group among a more diverse assemblage of M. marinum strains. Like M. ulcerans, the fish and frog MPM show multiple copies of the insertion sequence IS2404. Comparisons of pMUM and chromosomal gene sequences demonstrate that plasmid acquisition and the subsequent ability to produce mycolactone were probably the key drivers of speciation. Ongoing evolution among MPM has since produced at least two genetically distinct ecotypes that can be broadly divided into those typically causing disease in ectotherms (but also having a high zoonotic potential) and those causing disease in endotherms, such as humans.

Identification of Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii in the Eastern Mediterranean.

Project description:Among the numerous pathogenic nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), which may cause disease in both poikilothermic and homoeothermic organisms, members of the unique clade Mycobacterium ulcerans/Mycobacterium marinum (MuMC) may cause disease in both fish and humans. Here, we describe the emergence of Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii, one of the four MuMC members, in Israel. For many years, M. marinum was the dominant NTM that was diagnosed in Israel as a fish pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first isolation and genomic characterization of M. pseudoshottsii infecting edible fish from two different fish species farmed in offshore sea cages in the eastern Mediterranean as well as in a recirculating aquaculture system in Israel. We compared the M. pseudoshottsii whole-genome sequences to all available genomic sequences of MuMC in free, publicly accessible databases. IMPORTANCE Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii was first detected in 1997 in the USA, infecting wild striped bass (Morone saxatilis). Since then, several reports from different countries worldwide have shown its capacity to become established in new regions as well as its pathogenicity to saltwater and euryhaline finfish of different genera. Our phylogenetic analysis revealed that the Mycobacterium ulcerans/Mycobacterium marinum clade (MuMC) is divided into two main branches: one that includes M. marinum and M. pseudoshottsii, and the second, which includes other M. marinum isolates as well as two isolates of M. shottsii. Our results reinforce the proposition that the geographical distribution of M. pseudoshottsii is much more extensive than is commonly believed. The emergence of M. pseudoshottsii in different parts of the world and its pathogenic traits that affect finfish of different genera may be a cause for concern among fish farmers, researchers, and environmental organizations.
