Abstract

V originále

A novel colicin type, designated colicin F-Y, was found to be encoded and produced by the strain Yersinia frederiksenii Y27601. Colicin F-Y was active against both pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of the genus Yersinia. Plasmid YF27601 (5,574 bp) of Y. frederiksenii Y27601 was completely sequenced. The colicin F-Y activity gene (cfyA) and the colicin F-Y immunity gene (cfyI) were identified. The deduced amino acid sequence of colicin F-Y was very similar in its C-terminal pore-forming domain to colicin Ib (69% identity in the last 178 amino acid residues), indicating pore forming as its lethal mode of action. Transposon mutagenesis of the colicin F-Y-susceptible strain Yersinia kristensenii Y276 revealed the yiuR gene (ykris001_4440), which encodes the YiuR outer membrane protein with unknown function, as the colicin F-Y receptor molecule. Introduction of the yiuR gene into the colicin F-Y-resistant strain Y. kristensenii Y104 restored its susceptibility to colicin F-Y. In contrast, the colicin F-Y-resistant strain Escherichia coli TOP10F' acquired susceptibility to colicin F-Y only when both the yiuR and tonB genes from Y. kristensenii Y276 were introduced. Similarities between colicins F-Y and Ib, similarities between the Cir and YiuR receptors, and the detected partial cross-immunity of colicin F-Y and colicin Ib producers suggest a common evolutionary origin of the colicin F-Y-YiuR and colicin Ib-Cir systems.
