Journal Article
Zoocin A immunity factor: a femA-like gene found in a group C streptococcus
1998
Overview
A 6.8-kb fragment of
Streptococcus equi subsp.
zooepidemicus 4881 DNA containing the zoocin A gene (
zooA) was cloned in
Escherichia coli and sequenced. We have identified a gene we call zoocin A immunity factor (
zif), which protects the producer cell from the otherwise lethal action of its own product. Transformation of
Streptococcus gordonii DL1 with
zooA and
zif changed its phenotypic character from a non-zoocin A producing-zoocin A sensitive cell to a zoocin A producing-zoocin A resistant cell.
zif has sequence homology to
femA (factor essential for methicillin resistance) and
lif (lysostaphin immunity factor). No differences were observed in amino acid or amino sugar compositions of peptidoglycan purified from zoocin A sensitive vs. zoocin A immune cells.
