摘　　要： 利用鸟枪法对大肠杆菌E .coliO138O 抗原基因簇进行测序 ,序列全长 14 139bp ,用生物信息学的方法进行序列分析 ,共发现 11个基因 ,分别为鼠李糖合成酶基因 (rmlB ,rmlD ,rmlA ,rmlC)、UDP GalNAcA合成酶基因 (gne ,gna)、糖基转移酶基因 (3个 )、O 抗原转运酶基因 (wzx)和O 抗原聚合酶基因 (wzy)。发现一种稀有单糖UDP Gal NAcA的合成途径 ,对合成该糖的第一种酶Gne进行了生物信息学鉴定 。 E. coli O138 is one of the enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, causing the postweaning diarrhea and edema disease of weaned pigs. The O-antigen gene cluster of E. coli O138 was sequenced and found to contain the genes rmlBDAC and gne, gna for the biosynthesis of nucleotide sugars dTDP-rhamnose and UDP-GalNAcA, respectively, genes encoding for O unit flippase(wzx), O-antigen polymerase(wzy) and 3 potential transferase genes. The possible biosynthesis pathway for rare UDP-GalNAcA was proposed. Two genes specific to E. coli O138 were identified. This work provides the basis for a sensitive test by PCR for the rapid detection of E. coli O138. Phylogenetic tree for Gne and GalE proteins was generated and comparisons were made among different strains, and results revealed that these proteins are similar in the second structure, and Gne of E. coli O138 was identified by bioinformatics.
