Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problem that no phage depolymerase has been developed in the prior art for the product purpose in the aspect of degrading bacterial capsular polysaccharide, the invention provides the purpose of phage depolymerase dep253 in the aspect of degrading bacterial capsular polysaccharide. The invention carries out whole genome sequencing and annotation on the klebsiella pneumoniae bacteriophage separated in the nature, screens out phage depolymerase with serotype specificity of phage sources by utilizing a prokaryotic expression platform, treats diseases caused by klebsiella pneumoniae, reduces economic loss and protects human and animal health.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme.
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a gram-negative bacillus of numerous serotypes. Serotypes are classified based on differences in bacterial capsular polysaccharide antigens, with more than 80 capsular serotypes of klebsiella pneumoniae currently known. The bacterium has the remarkable characteristic that the bacterium body wraps the thick capsular polysaccharide, and a biofilm is easy to form, and based on the bacterium, the invention provides the application of phage depolymerase dep253 in degrading the capsular polysaccharide of the bacterium. Phage depolymerase dep253 is a K5 serotype specific depolymerase and can be used for specifically degrading K5 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae capsular polysaccharide and inhibiting K5 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilm formation, thereby having the effect of preventing and treating diseases caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae.
A Klebsiella pneumoniae phage P253 strain has a preservation number of CCTCC NO of M20241683, a preservation time of 2024 and 7 months and 25 days, a preservation unit of China center for type culture collection, and a preservation address of China university of Wuhan.
The phage strain P253 is separated from medical sewage of Zhang Kong municipal hospital by a double-layer flat plate method by using K5 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae strain KP181 as a host bacterium. Subsequent evaluation of phage strain P253 on the lytic ability of 46 Klebsiella pneumoniae strains revealed that phage strain P253 only lyses K5 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. A cloudy halo was wrapped around the plaques of phage strain P253, indicating that phage strain P253 encodes a depolymerase.
Phage is a virus that can infect bacteria, and can specifically infect and kill bacteria. Phage-derived depolymerases are a class of enzymes encoded by phage that degrade bacterial extracellular polysaccharides, which are beneficial to enhancing the bacteriostatic effect of antibiotics or phage.
Phage therapy has some significant advantages over antibiotics, especially when faced with drug-resistant bacteria and treating specific infection types. Highly specific, phage are capable of highly specific infection and killing of specific bacteria without affecting the normal microbiota of the human body. This is in contrast to the broad spectrum bactericidal action of antibiotics, which can more precisely target pathogenic bacteria with reduced impact on the beneficial flora of the human body. Low toxic side effect, that is, the bacteriophage acts on specific bacteria and is harmless to human cells. Thus, the phage has fewer side effects than antibiotics. This allows the phage to be used more safely during the course of treatment, especially for patients who have been unable to be treated with conventional antibiotics because of drug resistance issues. Natural selection has the advantage that phages are able to select their targets naturally according to the type of bacteria infected, which makes them more efficient in the course of treatment. In contrast, the broad-spectrum bactericidal effect of antibiotics is strong, but also tends to cause disturbance of the microbial population and emergence of resistant strains. Environmentally friendly, phages are naturally occurring viruses whose therapeutic use does not adversely affect the environment. In contrast, the widespread use of antibiotics has been demonstrated to have a potential impact on the environmental microbiota and ecosystem. Based on the above, the invention provides an application of phage depolymerase dep253 in degrading bacterial capsular polysaccharide, wherein the amino acid sequence of phage depolymerase dep253 is shown as SEQ ID NO. 1.

"+" Indicates that phage depolymerase dep253 has depolymerising activity on the bacterial capsule and "-" indicates that phage depolymerase dep253 has no depolymerising activity on the bacterial capsule.
The formation of a cloudy halo on the lawn of the klebsiella pneumoniae strain by phage depolymerase dep253 suggests that phage depolymerase dep253 is capable of degrading the capsular polysaccharide of the strain. In contrast, the inability of phage depolymerase dep253 to form a cloudy halo on the lawn of a klebsiella pneumoniae strain suggests that phage depolymerase dep253 is unable to degrade the capsular polysaccharide of that strain.
Klebsiella pneumoniae strain KP181 was streaked on sheep blood platelets and cultured overnight at 37℃to form larger gray-white mucus colonies, suggesting that Klebsiella pneumoniae strain KP181 contained a large amount of capsules, as shown in FIG. 5.
Wherein, the overnight culture refers to the culture time of more than or equal to 12 hours.
50ML of Klebsiella pneumoniae strain KP181 was incubated in LB medium to an OD 600 of 1.0, centrifuged at 10000g for 5 min, and washed twice with 10mL of PBS. The bacterial pellet was resuspended in 1mL of PBS and transferred to a 1.5mLEP tube and centrifuged at 10000g for 5 minutes. The test group was resuspended with 1 mLPBS. Mu.g of phage depolymerase dep253 and the control group was resuspended with 1mL of PBS. Both groups were centrifuged at 10000g for 5 minutes after 12 hours of shaking treatment at 37 ℃. As shown in FIG. 6, phage depolymerase dep253 treated group bacterial pellet was more compact and less bulky, while PBS treated group bacterial pellet depolymerase dep253 treated group was compact and slightly more bulky.
As shown by the experimental results, the bacteriophage depolymerizing enzyme dep253 can degrade capsular polysaccharide of K5 serotype Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Example 8 inhibition of Klebsiella pneumoniae KP181 biofilm Using purified phage depolymerizing enzyme dep253
80. Mu.L of Klebsiella pneumoniae KP181, type K5 with an OD 600 of 1.0, was inoculated into 96-well cell culture plates containing 100. Mu.L LB medium per well, 96-well cell culture plates brand Sigma-Aldrich, USA. Phage depolymerase dep253 with the concentration of 2mg/mL after purification is diluted by PBS buffer solution respectively to obtain phage depolymerase dep253 diluted solutions with the concentration of 0.2mg/mL, 0.02mg/mL and 0.002mg/mL in sequence, and 20 mu L of phage depolymerase dep253 diluted solutions with different concentrations are added into each well of a 96-well cell culture plate containing a biological film. Wherein, the content of phage depolymerase dep253 in 20 mu L of phage depolymerase dep253 dilutions at different concentrations was 4 mu g, 0.4 mu g and 0.04 mu g, respectively.
After 24 hours of incubation at 37 ℃, the cell culture plates were removed, the medium was discarded with a pipette and washed twice with 200 μl of sterilized PBS buffer to remove free bacteria and enzymes. Then 200. Mu.L of methanol was added to each well and the mixture was allowed to stand for 10 minutes. After the fixation solution was discarded and naturally dried in air, the biofilm was stained with 200. Mu.L of 0.1% by mass crystal violet at room temperature for 10 minutes. After completion of the staining, the staining solution was discarded, and the solution was washed twice with 200. Mu.L of PBS buffer to remove the free staining solution. The cell culture plate was dried in a 50℃oven, 200. Mu.L of 33% strength acetic acid solution was added to each well after removal, and the mixture was placed on a shaker for 30 minutes to release crystal violet in the biofilm. Finally, the absorbance at 595nm was measured using an enzyme-labeled instrument. The residual amount of the biofilm is determined according to the value of OD 595.
As shown in FIG. 7, biofilm formation was significantly reduced in the 4. Mu.g, 0.4. Mu.g and 0.04. Mu.g phage depolymerization enzyme dep253 treated groups. From the above experimental results, it was found that phage depolymerizing enzyme dep253 of the present invention significantly inhibited biofilm formation.
