Salmonella bacteriophage glycanases: endorhamnosidases of Salmonella typhimurium bacteriophages
S B Svenson et al. J Virol. 1979 Nov.
Abstract
Twelve bacteriphages lysing only smooth Salmonella typhimurium strains were shown to have similar morphology--an icosahedric head to which a short, noncontractile tail carrying six spikes was attached. All phages degraded their lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptors as shown by their ability to cleave off [14C]galactosyl-containing oligosaccharides from S. typhimurium cells labeled in their LPS. The oligosaccharides inhibited the alpha-D-galactosyl-specific Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin agglutination of human type B erythrocytes, indicating that all 12 phage glycanases were of endorhamnosidase specificity, i.e., hydrolyzed the alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 leads to 3)-D-galactopyranosyl linkage in the S. typhimurium O-polysaccharide chain. Two of the phages, 28B and 36, were studied in more detail. Whereas the phage 28B glycanase hydrolyzed the S. typhimurium LPS into dodeca- and octasaccharides, the phage 36 glycanase in addition cleaved off tetrasaccharides. Both phage enzymes hydrolyzed the O-polysaccharide chains of LPS from Salmonella belonging to serogroups A, B, and D1, which are built up of tetrasaccharide-repeating units identical except for the nature of the 3,6-dideoxyhexopyranosyl group (R). : FORMULA:(SEE TEXT). The phage 28B and 36 endorhamnosidases hydrolyzed also an LPS from which the 3,6-dideoxyhexosyl substituents had previously been hydrolyzed off. However, neither of the enzymes was active on LPS preparations in which the C2-C3 bond of the L-rhamnopyranosyl ring had been opened by periodate oxidation. Glucosylation at O-6 of the D-galactopyranosyl residues in the S. typhimurium LPS was found to be incompatible with hydrolysis by both enzymes. However, in an LPS glucosylated at O-4 of the D-galactopyranosyl residues, the adjacent alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl linkages were found to be perferentially cleaved.
