Project description:Staphylococcus aureus and related species are highly adapted to their hosts and have evolved numerous strategies to evade the immune system. S. aureus shows resistance to killing following uptake into the phagosome, which suggests that the bacterium evades intracellular killing mechanisms used by neutrophils. We recently discovered an S. aureus protein (SPIN for Staphylococcal Peroxidase INhibitor) that binds to and inhibits myeloperoxidase (MPO), a major player in the oxidative defense of neutrophils. To allow for comparative studies between multiple SPIN sequences, we identified a panel of homologs from species closely related to S. aureus. Characterization of these proteins revealed that SPIN molecules from S. agnetis, S. delphini, S. schleiferi, and S. intermedius all bind human MPO with nanomolar affinities, and that those from S. delphini, S. schleiferi, and S. intermedius inhibit human MPO in a dose-dependent manner. A 2.4?Å resolution co-crystal structure of SPIN-delphini bound to recombinant human MPO allowed us to identify conserved structural features of SPIN proteins, and to propose sequence-dependent physical explanations for why SPIN-aureus binds human MPO with higher affinity than SPIN-delphini. Together, these studies expand our understanding of MPO binding and inhibition by a recently identified component of the staphylococcal innate immune evasion arsenal.

Project description:The intracellular lifestyle of bacteria is widely acknowledged to be an important mechanism in chronic and recurring infection. Among the Staphylococcus genus, only Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus pseudintermedius have been clearly identified as intracellular in nonprofessional phagocytic cells (NPPCs), for which the mechanism is mainly fibronectin-binding dependent. Here, we used bioinformatics tools to search for possible new fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBP-like) in other Staphylococcus species. We found a protein in Staphylococcus delphini called Staphylococcus delphini surface protein Y (SdsY). This protein shares 68% identity with the Staphylococcus pseudintermedius surface protein D (SpsD), 36% identity with S. aureus FnBPA, and 39% identity with S. aureus FnBPB. The SdsY protein possesses the typical structure of FnBP-like proteins, including an N-terminal signal sequence, an A domain, a characteristic repeated pattern, and an LPXTG cell wall anchor motif. The level of adhesion to immobilized fibronectin was significantly higher in all S. delphini strains tested than in the fibronectin-binding-deficient S. aureus DU5883 strain. By using a model of human osteoblast infection, the level of internalization of all strains tested was significantly higher than with the invasive-incompetent S. aureus DU5883. These findings were confirmed by phenotype restoration after transformation of DU5883 by a plasmid expression vector encoding the SdsY repeats. Additionally, using fibronectin-depleted serum and murine osteoblast cell lines deficient for the β1 integrin, the involvement of fibronectin and β1 integrin was demonstrated in S. delphini internalization. The present study demonstrates that additional staphylococcal species are able to invade NPPCs and proposes a method to identify FnBP-like proteins.

Project description:Members of the genus Staphylococcus are widespread in nature and occupy a variety of niches, however, staphylococcal colonization of animals in the Antarctic environment has not been adequately studied. Here, we describe the first isolation and characterization of two Staphylococcus intermedius group (SIG) members, Staphylococcus delphini and Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, in Antarctic wildlife. Staphylococcus delphini were found exclusively in Adélie penguins. The report of S. pseudintermedius from Weddell seals confirmed its occurrence in all families of the suborder Caniformia. Partial RNA polymerase beta-subunit (rpoB) gene sequencing, repetitive PCR fingerprinting with the (GTG)5 primer, and matrix-assisted laser-desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry gave consistent identification results and proved to be suitable for identifying SIG members. Comparative genomics of S. delphini isolates revealed variable genomic elements, including new prophages, a novel phage-inducible chromosomal island, and numerous putative virulence factors. Surface and extracellular protein distribution were compared between genomes and showed strain-specific profiles. The pathogenic potential of S. delphini was enhanced by a novel type of exfoliative toxin, trypsin-like serine protease cluster, and enterotoxin C. Detailed analysis of phenotypic characteristics performed on six Antarctic isolates of S. delphini and eight reference strains from different animal sources enabled us to emend the species description of S. delphini.
