摘要: A eukaryotic cell-binding domain from the intimin (Int) polypeptide of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli O127 (EPEC) was investigated. Derivatives carboxy-terminal 280-amino-acid domains Int (Int-EPEC280) and homolog invasin (Inv) Yersinia pseudotuberculosis (InvYP280) were fused to E. maltose-binding protein (MBP), expressed, purified. The smallest MBP-IntEPEC fusion that efficiently mediated binding HEp-2 cells, monitored by using purified proteins in fluorescence activated cell sorter analysis or fluorescent Covaspheres coated with fusions, contained 150 amino acids Int. Replacement Cys-937 Ser (IntEPEC280CS) destroyed activity IntEPEC280. MBP-IntEPEC280 associated microvilli but failed induce actin accumulation underneath bound particles spreading on plastic surfaces. MBP-IntEPEC280, not MBP, MBP-IntEPEC280CS, MBP-InvYP280, inhibited EPEC entry into cells.
