项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Sialic acids (Sias), the outermost termini of glycan chains decorating glycoproteins and glycolipids, comprise a diverse family of nine-carbon sugar acids, where structural variants are defined by substitutions at different carbon positions. Sias are involved in cell-cell recognition processes and modulate a wide variety of physiological and pathological processes, including recognition by viruses and other pathogenic microorganisms. On salivary glycoproteins, terminal Sias constitute important cognate glycan motifs recognized by Sia-binding adhesins of oral commensal streptococci. This recognition enables initial adhesion and colonization of saliva-coated oral surfaces by streptococci. However, if these normally harmless commensal Sia-binding streptococci happen to transgress the tissue barrier at the gingival margin and evade neutrophil defense, they can become dispersed within the bloodstream and act as agents of systemic diseases, including infectious endocarditis. Because Sias play a role in all of these events, the finer specificities of streptococcal binding to the various subtypes of Sias become an important question to explore. Our group has recently performed a comprehensive screening of clinical isolates of dental plaque streptococcal strains for their ability to bind to different Sia subtypes. Through analyzing their finer Sia-subtype binding specificities using a novel sialoglycan array, we found streptococci in the oral cavity of human individuals that bind to a non-human sialic acid, N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc). This is significant because humans, unlike most other mammals, are genetically unable to synthesize Neu5Gc. In this project, we aim to determine the structural basis for differential recognition of Neu5Gc and Neu5Ac by these Sia-binding streptococci, and to identify their natural receptors in the human oral cavity. We will investigate the molecular basis of Sia-mediated streptococcal binding to salivary sialoglycoproteins. We will identify other bacterial species in oral biofilms that express Sias on their surface and are targets for interbacterial adhesion by Neu5Gc-binding streptococci. Lastly, we will determine the molecular basis of Sia-mediated binding of streptococci to phagocytes and investigate the functional consequences of streptococcal binding to different Sia-subtypes on bacterial uptake and phagocyte activation. Overall, these studies are expected to break new ground by demonstrating how expression of Sia-subtypes influences bacteria-host interactions in the human oral cavity. The knowledge gained will likely have a positive impact on early diagnosis and prevention of dental, oral, and systemic diseases caused by oral microbes.

项目摘要唾液酸（SIAS），装饰糖蛋白和糖脂的聚糖链的最外部末端，包括一个多元化的九种碳糖酸的家族，其中结构变体由在不同的碳位置取代。 SIA参与细胞细胞识别过程和调节多种生理和病理过程，包括病毒识别和其他致病微生物。在唾液糖蛋白上，终末SIA构成重要通过口服共生链球菌的SIA结合粘合剂识别的同源性聚糖基序。这识别可以通过链球菌对唾液涂层的口腔表面进行初始粘附和定植。但是，如果这些通常是无害的共生SIA结合链球菌，则碰巧牙龈边缘的组织屏障和逃避中性粒细胞防御，它们可以分散血液和充当全身性疾病的药物，包括感染性心内膜炎。因为 SIA在所有这些事件中都起作用 SIAS的亚型成为要探索的重要问题。我们的小组最近表演了全面筛查牙菌斑链球菌菌株的临床分离株的能力与不同的SIA亚型结合。通过使用A分析其较细的SIA-SUBTYPE结合特异性新型的唾液酸阵列，我们在人类的口腔中发现与一个人的口腔链球菌非人类唾液酸，n-糖基因神经氨酸（NEU5GC）。这很重要，因为人类，与大多数其他哺乳动物不同，在遗传上无法合成NEU5GC。在这个项目中，我们的目标是通过这些SIA结合确定对NEU5GC和NEU5AC差异识别的结构基础链球菌，并在人口腔中鉴定其天然受体。我们将调查 SIA介导的链球菌与唾液唾液糖蛋白的结合的分子基础。我们将确定口服生物膜中的其他细菌物种在其表面表达SIA，并且是 Neu5GC结合链球菌的细菌粘附。最后，我们将确定分子基础 SIA介导的链球菌与吞噬细胞的结合，并研究链球菌与细菌摄取和吞噬细胞激活的不同SIA辅助类型的结合。全面的，预计这些研究将通过证明SIA-SUBTYPES的表达来揭开新的基础影响人口腔中的细菌宿主相互作用。获得的知识可能会有对早期诊断和预防牙齿，口腔和全身性疾病的积极影响口服微生物。
