Abstract Background: Beta-barrel transmembrane (bbtm) proteins are a functionally important and diverse group of proteins expressed in the outer membranes of bacteria (both gram negative and acid fast gram positive), mitochondria and chloroplasts. Despite recent publications describing reasonable levels of accuracy for discriminating between bbtm proteins and other proteins, screening of entire genomes remains troublesome as these molecules only constitute a small fraction of the sequences screened. Therefore, novel methods are still required capable of detecting new families of bbtm protein in diverse genomes. Results: We present TMB-Hunt, a program that uses a k-Nearest Neighbour (k-NN) algorithm to discriminate between bbtm and non-bbtm proteins on the basis of their amino acid composition.

In pathogenic species, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, an outermost ‘capsule’ layer surrounds the cell wall. This wall embraces a fundamental, covalently linked ‘cell-wall skeleton’ composed of peptidoglycan, solidly attached to arabinogalactan whose penta-saccharide termini are esterified by very long-chain fatty acids (mycolic acids). These fatty acids form the inner leaflet of an outer membrane, called mycomembrane, whose outer leaflet consists of a great variety of non-covalently linked lipids and glycolipids.

Abstract Precision antimicrobials that can kill pathogens without damaging host commensals hold potential to cure disease without antibiotic-associated dysbiosis. Here we report the de novo design of host defense peptides that have been rationally engineered to precisely target specific pathogens by mimicking key molecular features of the target microbe’s unique channel-forming membrane proteins, or porins. This biomimetic strategy exploits physical and structural motifs of the pathogen envelope, rather than targeting resistance-susceptible protein biochemical pathways, to construct fast-acting precision bacteriolytics. Utilizing this approach, we design an antitubercular sequence that undergoes instructed, tryptophan-zippered assembly within the mycolic-acid rich outer membrane of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to specifically kill the pathogen without collateral toxicity towards lung commensals or host tissue. These mycomembrane-templated mechanisms are rapid and synergistically enhance the potency of antibiotics that otherwise poorly diffuse across the rigid Mtb envelope, particularly those that exploit porins for antimycobacterial activity.

  • Transport and Catabolism of Murein Tripeptide in Escherichia Coli K-12
    Transport and catabolism of murein tripeptide in Escherichia coli K-12 Abbas Maqbool PhD University of York Department of Biology December 2011 Abstract In bacteria, extracellular peptides are not only a source of nutrients but also play important roles in cell-cell communication. The primary mode of uptake of these peptides in bacteria is via ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) transporters. The substrate- binding protein (SBP) of these transporters captures extracellular peptides and delivers them to membrane-bound components for transport. Bacterial peptide- binding SBPs that function in ABC transporters have evolved predominantly to function as generalists, recognising peptides of particular lengths but with low or no sequence specificity. However, within the peptide-specific SBPs are examples that appear to have evolved subsequently to recognise specific peptides. Here we have provided the first biophysical evidence, using native electrospray mass spectrometry, for the binding of a specific peptide to an Escherichia coli SBP. This peptide is a cell wall component named murein tripeptide (Mtp, L-Ala- -D-Glu- meso-Dap) and is transported by an ABC transporter containing the SBP MppA. We demonstrate that MppA recognises Mtp specifically and with high affinity (KD ~ 250 nM), as determined by protein fluorescence spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry. The crystal structure of MppA in complex with Mtp has been solved in order to understand the structural basis of specific binding of Mtp to MppA. Comparison of the structure of MppA-Mtp with structures of general tripeptides bound to oligopeptide binding protein OppA, reveals close similarity in the protein chains which fold to form an enclosed interdomain pocket in which the respective peptides reside.

Hasnain Abstract Biofilm, as a heterogenous congregation of microbial cells enclosed within a pellicle, has largely gained attention due to their historical importance in environ- ment as sludges, flocs, slimes, etc. Biofilms in medical research have been an active area of research in periodontics, in wounds, and in surgical implants. With the availability of whole genome sequences, it is now evident that the mechanisms that control biofilm formation have largely remained conserved during the course of evolution, pointing to the fact that biofilm formation is an Anwar Alam, Ashutosh Kumar and Prajna Tripathi have contributed equally to this chapter.
