摘要 | Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that causes blinding trachoma and sexually transmitted disease. The chlamydial plasmid is a critical virulence factor in the pathogenesis of these diseases. Plasmid gene protein 4 (Pgp4) plays a major role in chlamydial virulence by regulating the expression of both chromosomal genes and Pgp3. Despite the importance of Pgp4 in mediating lytic exit from host cells the pathogenic mechanism by which it functions is unknown. CT084 is a highly conserved chromosomal gene with homology to phospholipase D. We showed CT084 expression is regulated by Pgp4 and expressed late in the chlamydial developmental cycle. To investigate the function of CT084 in chlamydial lytic exit from infected cells, we made a CT084 null strain (ct084::bla) by using Targetron. The ct084::bla strain grew normally in vitro compared to wild-type strain; however, the strain did not lyse infected cells and produced significantly less and smaller plaques. Collectively, our finding shows Pgp4-regulated CT084-mediated chlamydia lytic exit from infected host cells. |
