Research Abstract	細菌の薬剤耐性に係わる因子としては(i)薬剤修飾酵素の産生、(ii)薬剤透過性の低下及び(iii)標的の感受性低下などが主たる原因である。中でも細胞膜を介しての薬剤透過性の変化は他の二つの因子と連係的に働くことが多いので、本研究ではこれらの事を中心として共同研究態勢を組んだ。また研究の対称とした菌種は今日問題になっている緑膿菌、MRSA(ブドウ球菌)及び大腸菌などであった。 MRSAの研究に関してはMRSAのbeta-ラクタム耐性を決定するPBP2'をコードする遺伝子がどのようにしてブドウ球菌に押入されたのかの研究を行った。そのためにMRSAに特異的なDNAをクローン化して調べたところmecAに隣接してmecR1及びmecZの二つの調節遺伝子が存在する、とがわかった。これはLactobacillusのxyllと相同性を示した。同様にMRSAの消毒耐性のメカニズムを明らかとするため、これに係わる遺伝子をクローン化し発現させたところ、消毒剤耐性に係わる蛋白質を同定することができた。この結果消毒剤のこの蛋白質との親和性などを明らかにすることができた。MRSAの産生するロイコシジン及びgamma-ヘモリジンは標的細胞を障害するが、これら独立の毒素はサブユニットの一つを共有しているという興味ある結果を得た。緑膿菌はイミペネムに耐性化すると外膜蛋白質OprD2が欠損する。この外膜蛋白の欠損と耐性の機序をクローン化したOprD2遺伝子の変異を用いて検討したところ、耐性化と同時にOprD2が欠損するような変異菌ではOprD2遺伝子の一部に欠失変異が存在することが明らかとなった。また緑膿菌が多剤耐性化するときに発現されるOprM遺伝子及びその近傍の遺伝子をクローン化した。OprMの耐性に果たす役割は未解決である。緑膿菌のプラスミド上で発現するイミペネム/セフタジダイムを加水分解するbeta-lactamaseの遺伝子を含む領域をクローン化し、酵素の発現をみた。このbeta-ラクタマーゼはペニシリン類、第3世代セフエム、カルバペネム類、ペネム類など巾広いスペクトラムを示した。一方大腸菌におけるプラスミド性テトラサイクリン耐性は細胞内からテトラサイクリンの排出によることが示されている。そこでこの排出に係わる蛋白質と他の薬剤排出に係わる蛋白質のアミノ酸残基の基質特異性を示す部分の共通性を検索した。その結果膜貫通部分に共通性が見いだされた。この部分に突然変異を導入すると排出蛋白の基質特異性及び排出効率は大きく影響された。これらの研究打ち合わせ、研究発表会等を兼ねた班会議を一回行った。
