A Focus on Protein Glycosylation in Lactobacillus Dimitrios Latousakis and Nathalie Juge * Quadram Institute Bioscience, The Gut Health and Food Safety Institute Strategic Programme, Norwich Research Park, Norwich NR4 7UA, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-(0)-160-325-5068; Fax: +44-(0)-160-350-7723 Received: 22 November 2017; Accepted: 27 December 2017; Published: 3 January 2018 Abstract: Protein glycosylation is emerging as an important feature in bacteria. Protein glycosylation systems have been reported and studied in many pathogenic bacteria, revealing an important diversity of glycan structures and pathways within and between bacterial species. These systems play key roles in virulence and pathogenicity. More recently, a large number of bacterial proteins have been found to be glycosylated in gut commensal bacteria. We present an overview of bacterial protein glycosylation systems (O- and N-glycosylation) in bacteria, with a focus on glycoproteins from gut commensal bacteria, particularly Lactobacilli. These emerging studies underscore the importance of bacterial protein glycosylation in the interaction of the gut microbiota with the host. Keywords: protein glycosylation; gut commensal bacteria; Lactobacillus; glycoproteins; adhesins; lectins; O-glycosylation; N-glycosylation; probiotics 1. Introduction Protein glycosylation, i.e., the covalent attachment of a carbohydrate moiety onto a protein, is a highly ubiquitous protein modification in nature, and considered to be one of the post-translational modifications (PTM) targeting the most diverse group of proteins [1]. Although it was originally believed to be restricted to eukaryotic systems and later to archaea, it has become apparent nowadays that protein glycosylation is a common feature in all three domains of life.

  • Genomics of Helicobacter Species 91
    Genomics of Helicobacter Species 91 6 Genomics of Helicobacter Species Zhongming Ge and David B. Schauer Summary Helicobacter pylori was the first bacterial species to have the genome of two independent strains completely sequenced. Infection with this pathogen, which may be the most frequent bacterial infec- tion of humanity, causes peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. Other Helicobacter species are emerging as causes of infection, inflammation, and cancer in the intestine, liver, and biliary tract, although the true prevalence of these enterohepatic Helicobacter species in humans is not yet known. The murine pathogen Helicobacter hepaticus was the first enterohepatic Helicobacter species to have its genome completely sequenced. Here, we consider functional genomics of the genus Helico- bacter, the comparative genomics of the genus Helicobacter, and the related genera Campylobacter and Wolinella. Key Words: Cytotoxin-associated gene; H-Proteobacteria; gastric cancer; genomic evolution; genomic island; hepatobiliary; peptic ulcer disease; type IV secretion system. 1. Introduction The genus Helicobacter belongs to the family Helicobacteriaceae, order Campylo- bacterales, and class H-Proteobacteria, which is also known as the H subdivision of the phylum Proteobacteria. The H-Proteobacteria comprise of a relatively small and recently recognized line of descent within this extremely large and phenotypically diverse phy- lum. Other genera that colonize and/or infect humans and animals include Campylobac- ter, Arcobacter, and Wolinella. These organisms are all microaerophilic, chemoorgano- trophic, nonsaccharolytic, spiral shaped or curved, and motile with a corkscrew-like motion by means of polar flagella. Increasingly, free living H-Proteobacteria are being recognized in a wide range of environmental niches, including seawater, marine sedi- ments, deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and even as symbionts of shrimp and tubeworms in these environments.

  • The Role of Helicobacter Spp. Infection in Domestic Animals
    Chapter 2 The Role of Helicobacter spp. Infection in Domestic Animals Achariya Sailasuta and Worapat Prachasilchai Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/53054 1. Introduction 1.1. Overview and pathogenesis The discovery of the association of Helicobacter pylori with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers and gastric neoplasia, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue-type lymphoma and carcinoma, has led to fundamental changes in the understanding of gastric disease in humans. Some hu‐ mans with H. pylori infection develop only mild, asymptomatic gastritis. Whether more se‐ vere disease develops thought to be influenced by individual host factors and pathogenicity of the bacteria involved. The odd of developing symptomatic H. pylori infection varies by geographic location and age. Different strains of H. pylori have recently been identified. Therefore, H. pylori should be considered a population of closely related but genetically het‐ erogenous bacteria of different genotypes and virulence. A gastric spiral bacteria of superkingdom bacteria, phylum proteobacteria, subphylum delta/epsilon subdivisions, class epsilonproteobacteria, order campylobacter, family helico‐ bacteraceae, genus Helicobacter spp. is gram-negative, spiral-shaped bacteria. At least 13 species have been reported, and most are suspected or proven gastric or hepatic patho‐ gens. Helicobacter spp. have been reported in humans: mainly H. pylori, nonhuman pri‐ mates: H. nemestrinae, cats and dogs various species, including H. pylori, H. felis, H. salomonis, H. rappini, H. heilmannii, and H. bizzozeronii, pigs: H. heilmannii, ferrets: H. muste‐ lae, and cheetahs: H. acinonys. More recently we have learned that nearly all mammmals harbor their own species of Helicobacter infection.

Although conflicting findings have been reported for most of the disorders, a role of H. pylori seems to be important especially for the development of cardiovascular and hematologic disorders. Previously isolated human and animal Helicobacter sp. flexispira and ′Helicobacter heilmannii′ strains have been validated using polyphasic taxonomy. A novel enterohepatic helicobacter has been isolated from mastomys and mice, adding to the list of helicobacters that colonize the liver.
