Characterization of lipids A of Ralstonia solanacearum lipopolysaccharides

چکیده
The analysis of fatty acid profiles of lipopolysacharid.es has shown that R. solanacearum strains tested may be divided into two groups. The first group is represented by R. solanacearum strains (5712, 7945, 7955 and 8110) the lipids A of which contained hydroxylated fatty acids with long chains: 3-hydroxy tetradecanoic, 2-hydroxyhexadecanoic and 2-hydroxyoctadecanoic. The second group was represented by R. solanacearum strains the lipids A of which contained hydroxylated fatty acids with short chains: 3-hydroxydecanoic, 2-hydroxydodecanoic and 3-hydroxydodecanoic. 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid was observed in a small amount. A comparative analysis of the fatty acid composition and biological activity gives a possibility to suppose that 3-hydroxytetradecanoic, 2-hydroxyhexadecanoic and 2-hydroxy octadecanoic acids may be responsible for the toxicity and pyrogenicity of the lipopolysaccharides tested.

PhiRSB1 is a wide-host-range, T7-like bacteriophage that infects and efficiently lyses the phytopathogenic bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum. The phiRSB1 genome comprises 43,079 bp of double-stranded DNA (61.7% G+C) with 325-bp terminal repeats and contains 47 open reading frames. Strong activity of tandem early promoters and wide specificity of phage promoters of phiRSB1 were demonstrated.

Ralstonia solanacearum is a globally distributed plant pathogen that causes bacterial wilt diseases of many crop hosts, threatening both sustenance farming and industrial agriculture. Here, we present closed genome sequences for the R. solanacearum type strain, K60, and the cool-tolerant potato brown rot strain R. solanacearum UW551, a highly regulated U.S. select agent pathogen.
