摘要

Listeriolysin O (LLO), a cholesterol-binding cytolysin of Listeria monocytogenes, exhibits cytokine-inducing and cytolytic activities. Because the cytolytic activity was abolished by cholesterol treatment but the cytokine-inducing activity was not, these activities appeared to be linked to different domains of the LLO molecule. In this study, we constructed recombinant full-length LLO (rLLO529) and various truncated derivatives and examined their cytolytic, cholesterol-binding, and gamma interferon (IFN-γ)-inducing activities. rLLO529 exhibited both IFN-γ-inducing and cytolytic activities. Four truncated rLLOs possessing different C termini, which did not exert either cytolytic or cholesterol-binding activity, stimulated IFN-γ production in normal spleen cells. However, a truncated rLLO corresponding to domain 4 (rLLO416-529) did not exhibit IFN-γ-inducing activity, whereas it did bind to immobilized cholesterol. In addition, though the hemolysis induced by rLLO529 was inhibited by rLLO416-529, such inhibition was not detected upon rLLO529-induced IFN-γ production. These data indicated that domain 4 was responsible for binding of LLO to membrane cholesterol followed by oligomerization and pore formation by the entire LLO molecule. In contrast, the other part of LLO, corresponding to domain 1-3, was essential for IFN-γ-inducing activity. These findings implied a novel aspect of the function of LLO as a bacterial modulin.
