The expression of two Enterococcus feacalis virulence-related proteases, gelatinase and serine protease, is positively regulated by a quorum sensing system encoded by the fsr gene cluster. In this system, E. feacalis secretes an autoinducing peptide, gelatinase biosynthesis-activating pheromone(GBAP), which triggers the FsrC-FsrA two component regulatory system controlling the expression of two transcripts, fsrBDC and gelE-sprE. To aim anti-pathogenic compounds targeting cyclic peptide-mediated quorum sensing in Gram-positive bacteria, we have studied on (1) biosynthetic molecular mechanism of cyclic peptide quormone 'GBAP' and (2) screening for inhibitors of GBAP-mediated quorum sensing 'fir regulatory system'.(1) In this study, we demonstrated the existence offsrD, encoding the GBAP propeptide, which is in frame with fsrB but is translated independently of fsrB. It was also demonstrated that FsrB', an FsrD-truncated FsrB, functions as a cysteine protease-like processing enzyme to generate GBAP from FsrD. This revised model is consistent with the staphylococcal agr system.(2) We have screened for inhibitors of the fsr quorum sensing from actinomycetes metabolites, and identified a known peptide antibiotic, siamycin I. Quantitative analysis offsrBDC and gelE-sprE transcript suggested that siamycin I inhibited the GBAP-signaling via FsrC-FsrA two component regulatory system in a noncompetitive maner. The sublethal concentration of siamysin I also attenuated biofilm formation. Overrall, siamycin I would offer a novel means of treating enterococcal infections.

两种肠球菌feacalis毒力相关蛋白酶，明胶酶和丝氨酸蛋白酶的表达是由由FSR基因簇编码的法定感应系统正调控的。在该系统中，E。feacalis分泌一个自动诱导的肽，明胶生物合成激活的信息素（GBAP），该信息素（GBAP）触发FSRC-FSRA两个组件调节系统，该系统控制了两个转录本FSRBDC和Gele-Spre的表达。为了瞄准革兰氏阳性细菌中环状肽介导的群体传感的抗致病化合物，我们研究了（1）环环肽Quormone'GBAP'GBAP'的生物合成分子机制，（2）（2）筛选GBAP介导的Quorum Sensecting'Fir Seensing'imement'exulter's Sempoisting recultors this recultory this recy this in recultory the（1）。 OFFSRD，编码GBAP丙肽，该GBAP丙肽与FSRB相框，但独立于FSRB进行翻译。还证明了FSRD截断的FSRB FSRB充当类似半胱氨酸蛋白酶的加工酶，可从FSRD产生GBAP。该修订的模型与葡萄球菌AGR系统一致。（2）我们已经筛选了来自放线菌代谢物的FSR Quorum Quorum Sense抑制剂，并鉴定出已知的肽抗生素，Siamycin，Siamycin I.定量分析。非竞争力的两个组件调节系统。锡亚米辛I的一定浓度也减弱了生物膜的形成。 Overrall，Siamycin I将提供一种新颖的治疗肠球菌感染的方法。
