摘要

Background Laribacter hongkongensis is a Gram-negative, urease-positive bacillus associated with invasive bacteremic infections in liver cirrhosis patients and fish-borne community-acquired gastroenteritis and traveler’s diarrhea. Its mechanisms of adaptation to various environmental niches and host defense evasion are largely unknown. During the process of analyzing the L. hongkongensis genome, a complete urease cassette and two adjacent arc gene cassettes were found. We hypothesize that the urease cassette and/or the arc gene cassettes are important for L. hongkongensis to survive in acidic environment and macrophages. In this study, we tested this hypothesis by constructing single, double and triple non-polar deletion mutants of the urease and two arc gene cassettes of L. hongkongensis using the conjugation-mediated gene deletion system and examining their effects in acidic environment in vitro, in macrophages and in a mouse model. Results HLHK9?ureA, HLHK9?ureC, HLHK9?ureD and HLHK9?ureE all exhibited no urease activity. HLHK9?arcA1 and HLHK9?arcA2 both exhibited arginine deiminase (ADI) activities, but HLHK9?arcA1/arcA2 double deletion mutant exhibited no ADI activity. At pH 2 and 3, survival of HLHK9?arcA1/arcA2 and HLHK9?ureA/arcA1/arcA2 were markedly decreased (p ureA was slightly decreased (p L. hongkongensis HLHK9. Survival of HLHK9?ureA/arcA1/arcA2 and HLHK9?arcA1/arcA2 in macrophages were also markedly decreased (p ureA was slightly decreased (p arcA1, arcA2 and ureA genes were all upregulated. Using a mouse model, HLHK9?ureA exhibited similar survival compared to HLHK9 after passing through the murine stomach, but survival of HLHK9?arcA1/arcA2 and HLHK9?ureA/arcA1/arcA2 were markedly reduced (p Conclusions In contrast to other important gastrointestinal tract pathogens, ADI pathway is far more important than urease for acid resistance and intracellular survival in L. hongkongensis. The gene duplication of the arc gene cassettes could be a result of their functional importance in L. hongkongensis.
