Résumé
Vibrio alginolyticus is a common and serious pathogen threatening the progress of coastal aquaculture. ClpP protease has been proved to be closely associated with biofilm formation, stress tolerance, autolysis and virulence in several pathogens. Hence, targeting ClpP may be a potentially viable, attractive option for the preparation of vaccine in preventing vibriosis. In this study, an in-frame deleted mutant strain (ΔclpP) was constructed by allelic exchange mutagenesis to investigate physiological role of clpP in pathogenicity of V. alginolyticus and evaluate its potential as a live attenuated vaccine. The results exhibited that ΔclpP showed no differences in external morphology, growth, swarming motility and ECPase activity. However, ΔclpP represented an increment in biofilm formation, and a decrement in adherence to CIK cells. In addition, virulence of ΔclpP was examined in pearl gentian grouper and was found to be seriously attenuated. ΔclpP induced high antibody titers and provided a valid protection with a relative percent survival value of 83.8% without histopathologic abnormality. Our results indicated ΔclpP showed a great potential to be a live attenuated vaccine.
