In this study, the inactivation of Echovirus-11 and Coxsackievirus-A9 by bacteria isolated from Lake Geneva was investigated. Results showed that majority of bacterial species can cause significant reduction of CVA9, while fewer species had lower inactivation effects on E11. The study also confirmed the role of matrix metalloproteases as effective controls on the environmental persistence of enteroviruses.
Enteroviruses are ubiquitous contaminants of surface waters, yet their fate in presence of microbial congeners is poorly understood. In this work, we investigated the inactivation of Echovirus-11 (E11) and Coxsackievirus-A9 (CVA9) by bacteria isolated from Lake Geneva. Incubation of E11 or CVA9 in biologically active lake water caused inactivation of 2- and 4-log(10), respectively, within 48 h. To evaluate the antiviral action of individual bacterial species, we isolated 136 bacterial strains belonging to 31 genera from Lake Geneva. The majority of isolates (92) induced decay of at least 1.5-log(10) of CVA9, whereas only 13 isolates induced a comparable inactivation on E11. The most extensive viral decay was induced by bacterial isolates producing matrix metalloproteases (MMPs). Correspondingly, the addition of a specific MMP inhibitor to lake water reduced the extent of inactivation for both viruses. A lesser, though significant protective effect was also observed with inhibitors of chymotrypsin-like or trypsin-like proteases, suggesting involvement of serine proteases in enterovirus inactivation in natural systems. Overall, we demonstrate the direct effect of bacterial proteases on the inactivation of enteroviruses and identify MMPs as effective controls on enteroviruses' environmental persistence.
