Isolation, primary structure and synthesis of heat-stable enterotoxin produced by Yersinia enterocolitica.

Five heat-stable enterotoxins were isolated from the culture supernatant of Yersinia enterocolitica and purified to homogeneity by DEAE-Sephacel and high-performance liquid chromatographies. They caused acute fluid accumulation in the intestine of suckling mice. The amino acid sequence of one of the enterotoxins was determined to be Ser-Ser-Asp-Trp-Asp-Cys-Cys-Asp-Val-Cys-Cys-Asn-Pro-Ala-Cys-Ala-Gly-Cys, by Edman degradation of its pyridylethylated derivative and a combination of fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry and carboxypeptidase B digestion. This structure was unambiguously confirmed by chemical synthesis. The other enterotoxins had longer or shorter amino acid sequences at their N termini, but the same sequence at their C termini. The six half-cystine residues formed intramolecular disulfide linkages, as shown by measurement of the molecular masses of the enterotoxins by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The sequence of 13 amino acid residues at the C terminus showed similarity to those of heat-stable enterotoxins isolated from enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [Aimoto, S. et al. (1982) Eur. J. Biochem. 129, 257-263; Takao, T. et al. (1983) FEBS Lett. 152, 1-5] suggesting that these similar sequences are related to the common biological and immunological properties of enterotoxins produced by Y. enterocolitica and enterotoxigenic E. coli.
