Effect of In vitro Passage with Selection Pressure on Fitness of Plasmid-free Chlamydia Muridarum Strain CMUT3
摘要
Abstract
Objective To unravel the effect of passage selection pressure on fitness of plasmid ̄free Chlamydia muri ̄darum strain CMUT3 and uncover the correlation between genetic and phenotypic signatures. Methods CMUT3 organisms were in vitro passaged for 40 generations under the alternating unassisted/assisted ̄infection cycle conditions and the infectivity of initial and final generation organisms in cell culture was measured by comparing their attachment efficiency phenotype in the presence or absence of centrifugation.Next ̄generation sequencing technology was then used to sequence the genomes of passaged CMUT3G40 and the parental CMUT3G0. Results Passaged CMUT3G40 organisms became less de ̄pendent on centrifugation and more efficient for infecting HeLa cells in the absence of centrifugation compared to the paren ̄tal CMUT3G0.Comparative genomes analysis of CMUT3G40 and CMUT3G0 revealed that a G to C substitution at position 277313,resulting in a glutamine to glutamic acid amino acid change in the protein product of TC0237 ( 99. 7% in CMUT3G40 versus 0% in CMUT3G0 genomes) . Conclusion The TC0237Q117E missense mutation under in vitro pas ̄sage selection pressure can be attributed to an in vitro attachment enhancement phenotype of plasmid ̄free C. muridarum CMUT3 organisms.关键词
