pubmed:abstractText |
To investigate the in situ expression of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) epitopes on nodule bacteria of Rhizobium leguminosarum, monoclonal antibodies recognizing LPS macromolecules were used for immunocytochemical staining of pea nodule tissue. Many LPS epitopes were constitutively expressed, and the corresponding antibodies reacted in nodule sections with bacteria at all stages of tissue infection and cell invasion. Some antibodies, however, recognized epitopes that were only expressed in particular regions of the nodule. Two general patterns of regulated LPS epitope expression could be distinguished on longitudinal sections of nodules. A radial pattern probably reflected the local physiological conditions experienced by endosymbiotic bacteria as a result of oxygen diffusion into the nodule tissue. The other pattern of expression, which followed a linear axis of symmetry along a longitudinal section of the pea nodule, was apparently associated with the differentiation of nodule bacteria and the development of the nitrogen-fixing capacity in bacteroids. Basically similar patterns of LPS epitope expression were observed for pea nodules harboring either of two immunologically distinct strains of R. leguminosarum bv. viciae, although these epitopes were recognized by different sets of strain-specific monoclonal antibodies. Furthermore, LPS epitope expression of rhizobia in pea nodules was compared with that of equivalent strains in nodules of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). From these observations, it is suggested that structural modifications of Rhizobium LPS may play an important role in the adaptation of endosymbiotic rhizobia to the surrounding microenvironment.
