我国科研人员发现 细菌免疫新机制
Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2025-12-22 18:17
新华社电 记者从中国药科大学获悉,该校多靶标天然药物全国重点实验室肖易倍教授团队近日揭示了 细菌通过代谢抵抗噬菌体感染的免疫新机制,为今后开发相关药物提供了思路。 肖易倍介绍,噬菌体是一类专门感染细菌的病毒。近年来,国内外研究发现,作为一种单细胞生物,细 菌竟能够抑制噬菌体的感染和传播。"以往科学界认为,只有人类这样的高级动物才拥有免疫系统,细 菌抗病毒的机制和免疫系统很像,因此被称为'细菌免疫'。" 团队成员、中国药科大学药学院副教授陈美容告诉记者,此次研究成果基于CRISPR-Cas系统,基因编 辑技术就来自CRISPR-Cas系统的一个分型,该技术就像剪刀,能够将遗传物质从特定位置切断。 转自:贵州日报 "此前有研究显示,细菌被噬菌体侵染后,会激活体内的Ⅲ型CRISPR-Cas系统,通过切割噬菌体的遗传 物质,干扰其复制。"陈美容介绍,团队历经两年多研究,发现了另一种基于ATP代谢的免疫新机制。 "这是一招'釜底抽薪',也就是把细菌体内的能量因子ATP消耗殆尽。"中国药科大学生命科学与技术学 院副教授陆美玲说,"生命活动需要能量,这种新机制把ATP代谢为具有毒性的ITP。噬菌体缺少足够能 量进行自我复制 ...
