Screening of antisense peptide nucleic acid sequence targeting lasR gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its inhibition on biofilm formation
To screen antisense peptide nucleic acid sequence targeting lasR gene of
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(PA) and investigate its inhibitory effect on biofilm formation.
Methods
2
Based on the sequence of lasR gene of PA
4 types of antisense nucleic acid sequences were designed
and based on the principle of dot blot
1 antisense nucleic acid sequence which could well bind with lasR gene was screened. Subsequently
peptide-peptide nucleic acids were synthesized and bound with penetrating peptides. Different concentrations of peptide-peptide nucleic acids were introduced into PAO1 (biofilm model strain of PA)
D
(600) value and plate count were measured for the inhibitory eftect of the peptide-peptide nuclear acids on the growth of PA. The biofilm formation was observed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. LasR mRNA expression was detected with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).
Results
2
Three types of the 4 antisense oligonucleotides showed binding affinity to lasR mRNA at dot spot hybridization experiment. The first strip antisense oligonucleotide presented strongest singal
and an antisense nucleic acid sequence was synthesized based on the result. The antimicrobial activity was enhanced with increase of the concentration of peptide-peptide nucleic acids.
Conclusion
2
The antisense peptide nucleic acid sequence targeting lasR gene of PA has significant inhibitory effect on the growth and biofilm formation of PA
and suppresses the expression of lasR mRNA.
