Characterization of N-acyl homoserine lactone overproducing mutants of Burkholderia multivorans ATCC 17616

Abstract: Burkholderia multivorans ATCC 17616 ordinarily produces insufficient amounts of N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) to promote AHLdependent formation of the pigment violacein by the reporter strain Chromobacterium violaceum CV026. We have isolated AHLoverproducing mutants of strain 17616 by screening for variants which do cross-feed AHLs to strain CV026. Nucleotide-sequence analysis of the bmuIR locus which specifies AHL synthase (BmuI) and AHL-binding transcriptional activator protein (BmuR) indicated that the … Show more

“…We do not yet understand the significance of the increase in biofilm formation for genomovar III-A strains over that for genomovar III-B strains, but it would be informative to study a larger number of strains from these two subgenomovar groups to determine if this relationship is true for a larger population. The results of our survey of acyl-HSLs synthesized by BCC isolates was in agreement with previous reports that most of these organisms synthesize C 8 -HSL (10,19,36). Exceptions included a genomovar III isolate that produced C 4 -HSL and/or 3OC 6 -HSL and two genomovar V isolates that synthesized C 10 -HSL in greatest abundance.…”

“…C4455 synthesized an unidentified species that eluted in fraction 32 under the HPLC conditions used. This species eluted between C 6 -HSL and C 8 -HSL and may resemble a previously reported unidentified species that migrates between C 6 -HSL and C 8 -HSL on C 18 reversed-phase thin layer chromatography plates (19,36). One organism, ATCC 17765 (genomovar III-B), produced C 4 -HSL and/or 3OC 6 -HSL, which elute together under the HPLC conditions used.…”

“…CepR controls the tight expression of cepI through binding to a lux box-like sequence that partially overlaps the Ϫ35 region of the putative cepI promoter (32,51), creating a classic autoinduction loop. QS systems that are highly homologous to the CepI/CepR system of B. cenocepacia were subsequently identified in all B. cepacia complex species investigated thus far (1,21,34,54). Several strains of B. vietnamiensis also produce N-decanoylhomoserine lactone (C10-HSL) in addition to C8-and C6-HSL via a second QS system that consists of BviI and BviR (9,21,34).…”
