Phagocytosis of Opa+
Neisseria gonorrhoeae (gonococcus, GC) by
neutrophils is in part dependent on the interaction of Opa proteins with CGM1a (CEACAM3/CD66d) antigens, a neutrophil-specific receptor. However, the signaling pathways leading to phagocytosis have not been
characterized. Here we show that interaction of OpaI bacteria with
neutrophils or CGM1a-transfected DT40 cells induces calcium flux, which correlates with phagocytosis of bacteria. We identified an
immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in CGM1a, and
showed that the ability of CGM1a to transduce signals and mediate
phagocytosis was abolished by mutation of the ITAM tyrosines. We
also demonstrated that CGM1a-ITAM-mediated bacterial phagocytosis is
dependent on Syk and phospholipase C activity in DT40 cells. Unexpectedly, the activation of the CGM1a-ITAM phagocytic pathway by
Opa+ GC results in induction of cell death.
