Unearthing New ccr Genes and Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome Elements in Staphylococci Through Genome Mining.
Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) typing is crucial for investigating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), relying primarily on the combination of ccr and mec gene complexes. To date, 19 ccr genes and 10 ccr gene complexes have been identified, forming 15 SCCmec types. With the vast release of bacterial genome sequences, mining the database for novel ccr gene complexes and SCC/SCCmec elements could enhance MRSA epidemiological studies. In this study, we identified 12 novel ccr genes (6 ccrA, 3 ccrB, and 3 ccrC) through mining of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database, forming 12 novel ccr gene complexes and 10 novel SCC elements. Overexpression of 5 groups of novel Ccr recombinases (CcrA9B3, CcrA10B1, CcrC3, CcrC4, and CcrC5) in a mutant MRSA strain lacking the ccr gene and extrachromosomal circular intermediate (ciSCC) production significantly promoted ciSCC production, demonstrating their biological activity. This discovery provides an opportunity to advance MRSA epidemiological research and develop database-based bacterial typing methods.
期刊介绍:
Published continuously since 1904, The Journal of Infectious Diseases (JID) is the premier global journal for original research on infectious diseases. The editors welcome Major Articles and Brief Reports describing research results on microbiology, immunology, epidemiology, and related disciplines, on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases; on the microbes that cause them; and on disorders of host immune responses. JID is an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America.
