Abstract

In order to find a new antimicrobial bacterium, we performed screening for antimicrobial activity of bacteria isolated from the eggs of a sea hare. The newly identified strain was designated as Phaeobacter inhibens KJ-2, based on the biochemical characterization and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. A colony of P. inhibens KJ-2 showed a circular and ruler-like smooth form at the edge, and a brown color. However, when maintained with a longer incubation time, its coloring was transformed into dark brown. From the result of SEM, P. inhibens KJ-2 is a bacillus which has a length of $0.8{\sim}1.0{\mu}m$ and a width of $0.4{\sim}0.6{\mu}m$. The optimal growth and antimicrobial activity were observed by shaking the culture for 24 hr at $20^{\circ}C$, which showed potent activity against pathogenic bacteria including Vibrio logei, Vibrio campbellii, Vibrio mimicus, Vibrio vulnificus, and Vibrio salmonicida. The antimicrobial activity was proportional to the amount of produced acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs). Therefore, we suggest that production of antimicrobial materials from P. inhibens KJ-2 is regulated by Quorum sensing (QS).

본 연구는 양식업에 막대한 경제적인 손실을 야기시키는 세균성 어류질병인 Vibrio anguillarum을 예방하고 억제하기 위한 목적을 두고, 제주 연안에 서식하는 군소 알로부터 특징적인 균주를 분리 하였다. 이를 16S rRNA 염기서열 분석, 형태학적 특성을 통해 균을 동정하여 Phaeobacter inhibens KJ-2로 명명하였다. Phaeobacter inhibens KJ-2 균주는 Vibrio sp.에 대해 강한 항균 활성을 갖고 있으며, 항균물질의 생산특성을 배양조건에 따라 검토하였으며, 그 결과 진탕 배양의 경우 $20^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 배양 후, 정치 배양의 경우 96시간 배양 후 항균 활성이 가장 높게 나타났다. 진탕 배양 및 정치 배양 모두 4시간 후부터 생육도는 낮았으나 항균 물질 생산을 시작하였다. 생육도가 거의 없는데도 불구하고 항균물질이 생산이 이루어졌는데, 이는 QS (Quorum Sensing)의 신호 물질인 AHLs과 관련이 있다고 사료되며, AHLs의 생성능은 항균 활성과 거의 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 이런 배양특성을 바탕으로 항균 활성을 검토한 결과 V. anguillarum외 다른 Vibrio sp.에 대해서도 항균활성을 나타내었다. 특히 Vibrio vulnificus, Vibrio campbellii, Vibrio mimicus에 대해 높은 저해능을 나타내었다.
