Outline of Final Research Achievements

Prevalence of novel staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE)(-like) toxin genes in Staphylococcus aureus and its relative species S. argenteus, and their molecular epidemiological characteristics were analyzed. selw and selx were detected in more than 80% of S. aureus isolates examined, and showed diversity in their nucleotide sequences. S. aureus harbored sey and selz at low rate, without having sel26 and sel27. The sey gene was detected in all the ST2250 S. argenteus isolates, and more than half of this lineage harbored selz, sel26, and sel27. Prevalence of novel SE(-like) genes was revealed to be different depending on lineages of S. aureus and S. argenteus.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

黄色ブドウ球菌は、市中での食中毒や病院感染の主要な原因菌である。本菌種の病原性は、本菌が持つ毒素、病原因子に起因すると考えられており、すでに腸管毒(エンテロトキシン、SE)、白血球障害毒素、組織付着因子などが同定されている。SE遺伝子にはsea-see、seg-seuなど多数の種類が知られるが、2011年以降、selw、selx、sey、selz、sel26、sel27などの新型SE(様)遺伝子が同定された。本研究ではそれらSE(様)遺伝子の黄色ブドウ球菌およびその近縁種における分布状況を明らかにするとともに、菌の遺伝学的系統によって分布するSE(様)遺伝子の種類に違いがあることを示した。
