摘要

Proteobacteria primarily utilize acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as quorum-sensing signals for intra-/interspecies communication to control pathogen infections. Enzymatic degradation of AHL represents the major quorum-quenching mechanism that has been developed as a promising approach to prevent bacterial infections. Here we identified a novel quorum-quenching mechanism revealed by an effector of the type IVA secretion system (T4ASS) in bacterial interspecies competition. We found that the soil antifungal bacterium Lysobacter enzymogenes OH11 (OH11) could use T4ASS to deliver the effector protein Le1288 into the cytoplasm of another soil microbiome bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens 2P24 (2P24). Le1288 did not degrade AHL, whereas its delivery to strain 2P24 significantly impaired AHL production through binding to the AHL synthase PcoI. Therefore, we defined Le1288 as LqqE1 (Lysobacterquorum-quenching effector 1). Formation of the LqqE1-PcoI complex enabled LqqE1 to block the ability of PcoI to recognize/bind S-adenosy-L-methionine, a substrate required for AHL synthesis. This LqqE1-triggered interspecies quorum-quenching in bacteria seemed to be of key ecological significance, as it conferred strain OH11 a better competitive advantage in killing strain 2P24 via cell-to-cell contact. This novel quorum-quenching also appeared to be adopted by other T4ASS-production bacteria. Our findings suggest a novel quorum-quenching that occurred naturally in bacterial interspecies interactions within the soil microbiome by effector translocation. Finally, we presented two case studies showing the application potential of LqqE1 to block AHL signaling in the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum.
