This work was aimed at investigating the molecular mechanisms of Quorum Sensing (QS) in Lactobacillus plantarum DC400 when co-cultured with other sourdough lactobacilli. The growth and survival of L. plantarum DC400 was not affected when co-cultivated with Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis DPPMA174 or Lactobacillus rossiae A7. Nevertheless, 2-DE analysis showed that the level of protein expression of L. plantarum DC400 increased under co-culture conditions. Although several proteins were commonly induced in both co-cultures, the highest induction was found in co-culture with L. rossiae A7. Overexpressed proteins, related to QS and stress response mechanisms, were identified: DnaK, GroEL, 30S ribosomal protein S1 and S6, ATP synthase subunit beta, adenosylmethionine synthetase (MetK), phosphopyruvate hydratase, phosphoglycerate kinase, elongation factor Tu, putative manganese-dependent inorganic pyrophosphatase, d-lactate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase and nucleoside-diphosphate kinase. As shown by real-time PCR, expression of the luxS gene of L. plantarum DC400 was also affected during co-cultivation. According to overexpression of MetK and luxS during co-cultivation, synthesis of AI-2-like substances was also influenced by the type of microbial co-cultures. This study showed that expression of some genes/proteins, also QS-related, in L. plantarum was influenced by co-cultivation of other sourdough lactobacilli.

A total of 10 and 13 missense mutations were found in the deduced gyrB and rpoB proteins, respectively, between avirulent AH11NOVO vaccine strain and its virulent parent strain AH11P. SDS-PAGE revealed that six proteins bands were significantly over-expressed in AH11NOVO whereas five bands were significantly over-expressed in AH11P. Mass spectrometry identified seven proteins from the over-expressed AH11NOVO gel bands and five proteins from the over-expressed AH11P gel bands. QPCR confirmed that all 12 genes corresponding to the proteins identified by mass spectrometry were significantly over-expressed in AH11NOVO or AH11P. When AH11NOVO proteins were subjected to Western blot analysis, 13 protein bands exhibited significantly stronger reactivity with hyper-immune catfish sera. Fifteen proteins were identified from immunogenic protein bands, including six (formate acetyltransferase, chaperone htpG, transketolase, ATP synthase subunit alpha, asparagine-tRNA ligase, and serine hydroxymethyltransferase) that were over-expressed in AH11NOVO proteins and three (elongation factor G, class II fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, and a putative uncharacterized 23 kDa protein) that were over-expressed in AH11P. In addition, the following six proteins were also identified from the immunogenic protein bands: pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component, ATP synthase subunit beta, ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, 50S ribosomal L10, and 50S ribosomal L15. Our results might provide insights on how to develop novel efficacious vaccine against Aeromonas hydrophila infection.
