Bacteriophage tailspike protein based assay to monitor phase variable glucosylations in Salmonella O-antigens

Abstract: BackgroundNon-typhoid Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) accounts for a high number of registered salmonellosis cases, and O-serotyping is one important tool for monitoring epidemiology and spread of the disease. Moreover, variations in glucosylated O-antigens are related to immunogenicity and spread in the host. However, classical autoagglutination tests combined with the analysis of specific genetic markers cannot always reliably register phase variable glucose modifications expressed on Salmonella O-an… Show more

“…As mentioned for tuberculosis, even though there are PCR-based assays faster than the standard method, they cannot differentiate among live and dead cells, which is critical for relevant results, and it is solved with this assay. 43) Similar techniques have been also reported for the detection of Salmonella, 44,45) E. coli, 46) and Clostridium 47,48) in different types of samples.…”

“…A phylogenetic analysis of the RBPs of the Jerseyvirus phages showed two distinct clades with similarity to either phage 9NA or P22 tail spikes at the C‐terminal (Fig. A), which were shown to have different affinities towards O‐antigen phenotypes (Anany et al ., ; Schmidt et al ., ). Yet, our Jerseyvirus phages had not identical, but highly similar host ranges irrespective of RBP allele (Fig.…”

“…The phage tail contracts leading to phage DNA ejection into the host. The inherent ability of S16 LTF and other phage RBPs to recognize specific pathogens has been leveraged in the development of an emerging array of biocontrol agents (Waseh et al, 2010) and affinity molecules for rapid detection and serotyping of bacteria (Arutyunov et al, 2014;Denyes et al, 2017;Javed et al, 2013;Schmidt et al, 2016;Simpson et al, 2016;Singh et al, 2010Singh et al, , 2013. Our understanding of the assembly and function of LTFs derives from studies on T4 phage (Hu et al, 2015;Leiman et al, 2010;Taylor et al, 2016;TĂ© tart et al, 1996TĂ© tart et al, , 1998 despite the T4 LTF composition representing only a minority of phages ( Figure 1).…”
