• W1994522011 abstract "Streptococcus pneumoniae is a persistent, opportunistic commensal of the human nasopharynx and is the leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia. It expresses an anti-phagocytic capsular polysaccharide (PS). Genetic variation of the capsular PS synthesis (cps) locus is the molecular basis for structural and antigenic heterogeneity of capsule types (serotypes). Serogroup 6 has four known members (6A–6D) with distinct serologic properties, homologous cps loci, and structurally similar PSs. cps of serotypes 6A/6B have wciNα, encoding α-1,3-galactosyltransferase, whereas serotypes 6C/6D have wciNβ encoding α-1,3-glucosyltransferase. Two atypical serogroup 6 isolates (named 6X11 and 6X12) have been discovered recently in Germany. Flow cytometric studies using monoclonal antibodies show that 6X11 has serologic properties of 6B/6D, whereas 6X12 has 6A/6C. NMR studies of their capsular PSs revealed that 6X11 and 6X12 have two different repeating units with a distribution of ∼40:60 6B:6D and 75:25 6A:6C PS, respectively. Sequencing of the wciNα gene in 6X12 and 6X11 revealed single and double nucleotide substitutions, respectively, resulting in the amino acid changes A150T and D38N. Substitution of alanine with threonine at position 150 in a 6A strain was associated with hybrid serologic and chemical profiles like 6X12. The hybrid serotypes represented by 6X12 and 6X11 strains are now named serotypes 6F and 6G. Single amino acid changes in cps genes encoding glycosyltransferases can alter substrate specificities, permit biosynthesis of heterogeneous capsule repeating units, and result in new hybrid capsule types that may differ in their interaction with the immune system of the host.Background: Two atypical serogroup 6 strains have been discovered.Results: They express capsular polysaccharide with two different repeating units and share A150T mutation in WciNα.Conclusion: This mutation shifts WciNα from a galactosyltransferase to a bi-specific glycosyltransferase, creating two new hybrid serotypes: 6F and 6G.Significance: Pneumococci can change capsule serotypes by point mutations and may alter their interactions with the immunity of the host.
