325-UmbA介导伞状毒素的聚糖靶向
from 聊聊Sci
这篇文章探讨了伞形毒素（一种由放线菌属，特别是链霉菌属分泌的复杂蛋白质颗粒）介导细菌间拮抗作用的机制。研究人员证明，这些毒素利用其可变的 UmbA 凝集素结构域，特异性地结合细胞表面的糖聚合物：尿嘧啶酸-壁磷壁酸 (TUA-WTA) 混合物，作为受体。冷冻电镜分析确定了 UmbA4 凝集素与 TUA 结合的结构，揭示了配体如何连接多个毒素组件以促进结合。适应性进化等遗传实验表明，目标细菌通过在 TUA 生物合成基因簇中引入突变来获得抗性，从而改变了毒素受体结构。作者提出，伞形毒素的模块化结构，包含多样的凝集素和毒素结构域，是一种两层分子风险对冲策略，使产生菌能够有效地对抗各种不可预测的竞争对手。References:* Zhao Q, Vlach J, Park Y J, et al.
