Description
Macarena Echeverría-Bugueño and co-authors profile the proteins of a fish pathogen and its outer membrane vesicles in this 2024 paper. The bacterium Vibrio ordalii causes atypical vibriosis in farmed salmonids in Chile. The team studied a Chilean strain, Vo-LM-18, with high resolution mass spectrometry. They found 2,242 proteins in the cells and 1,755 in the vesicles the cells shed. Most proteins were shared, with a few hundred unique to each side.
Vesicles carried an enriched load of virulence linked proteins, including iron and heme uptake machinery. The cell profile featured flagellum assembly and protein building pathways. One find stood out: the RTX toxin appeared in this strain and its vesicles for the first time. The authors argue the vesicles are not debris but active tools of infection and adaptation.
