Cyclic di-GMP as a bacterial second messenger
More LessEnvironmental signals trigger changes in the bacterial cell surface, including changes in exopolysaccharides and proteinaceous appendages that ultimately favour bacterial persistence and proliferation. Such adaptations are regulated in diverse bacteria by proteins with GGDEF and EAL domains. These proteins are predicted to regulate cell surface adhesiveness by controlling the level of a second messenger, the cyclic dinucleotide c-di-GMP. Genetic evidence suggests that the GGDEF domain acts as a nucleotide cyclase for c-di-GMP synthesis while the EAL domain is a good candidate for the opposing activity, a phosphodiesterase for c-di-GMP degradation.

Involvement of a Rab8-like protein of Dictyostelium discoideum, Sas1, in the formation of membrane extensions, secretion and adhesion during development
More LessEstablishment of cell–cell adhesions, regulation of actin, and secretion are critical during development. Rab8-like GTPases have been shown to modulate these cellular events, suggesting an involvement in developmental processes. To further elucidate the function of Rab8-like GTPases in a developmental context, a Rab8-related protein (Sas1) of Dictyostelium discoideum was examined, the expression of which increases at the onset of development. Dictyostelium cell lines expressing inactive (N128I mutant) and constitutively active (Q74L mutant) Sas1 as green fluorescent protein (GFP)-Sas1 chimeras were generated. Cells expressing Sas1Q74L displayed numerous actin-rich membrane protrusions, increased secretion, and were unable to complete development. In particular, these cells demonstrated a reduction in adhesion as well as in the levels of a cell adhesion molecule, gp24 (DdCAD-1). In contrast, cells expressing Sas1N128I exhibited increased cell–cell adhesion and increased levels of gp24. Counting factor is a multisubunit signalling complex that is secreted in early development and controls aggregate size by negatively regulating the levels of cell adhesion molecules, including gp24. Interestingly, the Sas1Q74L mutant demonstrated increased levels of extracellular countin, a subunit of counting factor, suggesting that Sas1 may regulate trafficking of counting factor components. Together, the data suggest that Sas1 may be a key regulator of actin, adhesion and secretion during development.

Controlled expression of CluA in Lactococcus lactis and its role in conjugation
More LessCluA is a 136 kDa surface-bound protein encoded by the chromosomally located sex factor of Lactococcus lactis MG1363 and is associated with cell aggregation linked to high-frequency transfer of the sex factor. To further investigate the involvement of CluA in these phenomena, the cluA gene was cloned on a plasmid, downstream from the lactococcal nisA promoter. In a sex-factor-negative MG1363 derivative, nisin-controlled CluA expression resulted in aggregation, despite the absence of the other genes of the sex factor. Therefore, CluA is the only sex factor component responsible for aggregation. The direct involvement of CluA in the establishment of cell-to-cell contact for aggregate formation was observed by electron microscopy using immunogold-labelled CluA antibodies. Inactivation of cluA in an MG1363 background led to a dramatic decrease in sex factor conjugation frequency compared to the parental strain. Increasing levels of CluA expressed in trans in the cluA-inactivated donor strain facilitated a gradual restoration of conjugation frequency, reaching that of the parental strain. In conclusion, CluA is essential for efficient sex factor transfer in conjugation of L. lactis.

Kluyveromyces phaffii killer toxin active against wine spoilage yeasts: purification and characterization
More LessThe killer toxin secreted by Kluyveromyces phaffii (KpKt) is active against spoilage yeast under winemaking conditions and thus has potential applications in the biocontrol of undesired micro-organisms in the wine industry. Biochemical characterization and N-terminal sequencing of the purified toxin show that KpKt is a glycosylated protein with a molecular mass of 33 kDa. Moreover, it shows 93 % and 80 % identity to a β-1,3-glucanase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a β-1,3-glucan transferase of Candida albicans, respectively, and it is active on laminarin and glucan, thus showing a β-glucanase activity. Competitive inhibition of killer activity by cell-wall polysaccharides suggests that glucan (β-1,3 and β-1,6 branched glucans) represents the first receptor site of the toxin on the envelope of the sensitive target. Flow cytometry analysis of the sensitive target after treatment with KpKt and K1 toxin of S. cerevisiae, known to cause loss of cell viability via formation of pores in the cell membrane, suggests a different mode of action for KpKt.

The novel extracellular Streptomyces reticuli haem-binding protein HbpS influences the production of the catalase-peroxidase CpeB
More LessThe Gram-positive soil bacterium and cellulose degrader Streptomyces reticuli synthesizes the mycelium-associated enzyme CpeB, which displays haem-dependent catalase and peroxidase activity, as well as haem-independent manganese-peroxidase activity. Downstream of the cpeB gene, a so far unknown gene was identified. The new gene and its mutated derivatives were cloned in Escherichia coli as well as in Streptomyces lividans and a gene-disruption mutant within the chromosome of the original S. reticuli host was constructed, comparative physiological, biochemical and immunological studies then allowed the deduction of the following characteristics of the novel gene product. (i) The protein was found extracellularly; the substitution of twin arginines within the signal peptide abolished its secretion. (ii) The highly purified protein interacted specifically with haem and hence was designated HbpS (haem-binding protein of Streptomyces). (iii) HbpS contained three histidine residues surrounded by hydrophobic amino acids; one of them was located within the motif LX3THLX10AA, which is related to the motif within the yeast cytochrome c peroxidase LX2THLX10AA whose histidine residue interacts with haem. (iv) The addition of haemin (Fe3+ oxidized form of haem) to the Streptomyces cultures led to enhanced levels of HbpS which correlated with increased haemin-resistance. (v) The presence of HbpS increased synthesis of the highly active catalase-peroxidase CpeB containing haem. In this process HbpS could act as a chaperone that binds haem and then delivers it to the mycelium-associated CpeB; HbpS could also interact with membrane-associated proteins involved in a signal transduction cascade regulating the expression of cpeB. (vi) HbpS shared varying degrees of amino acid identities with bacterial proteins of so far unknown function. This report contributes to the elucidation of the biological function of these proteins.

Identification and transcriptional organization of a gene cluster involved in biosynthesis and transport of acinetobactin, a siderophore produced by Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606T
In order to assimilate iron, Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606T produces a siderophore named acinetobactin (Ab) that is composed of equimolar quantities of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA), l-threonine and N-hydroxyhistamine. Application of the Fur titration assay system to A. baumannii genomic libraries, followed by further cloning of the regions surrounding the candidate genes, led to the identification of the Ab cluster, which harbours the genetic determinants necessary for the biosynthesis and transport of the siderophore. However, an entA homologue essential for DHBA biosynthesis was not found in this cluster. Functions of potential biosynthetic genes inferred by homology studies suggested that the precursors, DHBA, l-threonine and N-hydroxyhistamine, are linked in steps resembling those of bacterial non-ribosomal peptide synthesis to form Ab. Genes responsible for the two-step biosynthesis of N-hydroxyhistamine from histidine were also identified in this cluster. Their genetic organization suggests that five genes involved in the transport system of ferric Ab into the cell cytosol form an operon. Construction of disruptants of some selected genes followed by phenotypic analysis supported their predicted biological functions. Interestingly, three additional genes probably involved in the intracellular release of iron from ferric Ab and the secretion of nascent Ab are contained in this cluster. Primer extension and RT-PCR analyses suggested that the Ab cluster, which includes 18 genes, is organized in seven transcriptional units originating from respective Fur-regulated promoter-operator regions.

Partial purification and characterization of a non-cyanobacterial cyanophycin synthetase from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus strain ADP1 with regard to substrate specificity, substrate affinity and binding to cyanophycin
More LessThis study reports, for the first time, purification and biochemical characterization of a cyanophycin synthetase from a non-cyanobacterial strain. Cyanophycin synthetase of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus strain ADP1 was purified 69-fold from recombinant Escherichia coli by two chromatographic steps and one novel affinity step utilizing the Mg2+-dependent binding of the enzyme to cyanophycin. Unlike cyanobacterial cyanophycin synthetases characterized so far, the purified enzyme from A. calcoaceticus strain ADP1 did not accept lysine as an alternative substrate to arginine. The apparent K m-values for arginine (47 μM) and aspartic acid (240 μM) were similar to those of known cyanophycin synthetases from cyanobacteria, but this enzyme had a slightly higher affinity for aspartic acid. In addition, the two different ATP-binding sites of the enzyme were characterized independently of each other with respect to K m values for ATP. The ATP-binding site responsible for the addition of arginine was found to have a much higher affinity for ATP (38 μM) than that responsible for the addition of aspartate (210 mM). Furthermore, the binding of the enzyme to the two possible forms of cyanophycin granule polypeptide (CGP), CGP-Asp and CGP-Arg, was studied. While both forms bound around 30–40 % of the enzyme activity present under the assay conditions, binding was Mg2+-dependent in the case of CGP-Asp. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that both forms of cyanophycin were equally abundant in cyanophycin-accumulating cells of A. calcoaceticus ADP1.

Post-transcriptional regulation of the Bacillus subtilis pst operon encoding a phosphate-specific ABC transporter
During phosphate starvation, Bacillus subtilis regulates genes in the PhoP regulon to reduce the cell's requirement for this essential substrate and to facilitate the recovery of inorganic phosphate from organic sources such as teichoic and nucleic acids. Among the proteins that are highly induced under these conditions is PstS, the phosphate-binding lipoprotein component of a high-affinity ABC-type phosphate transporter. PstS is encoded by the first gene in the pst operon, the other four members of which encode the integral membrane and cytoplasmic components of the transporter. The transcription of the pst operon was analysed using a combination of methods, including transcriptional reporter gene technology, Northern blotting and DNA arrays. It is shown that the primary transcript of the pst operon is processed differentially to maintain higher concentrations of PstS relative to other components of the transporter. The comparative studies have revealed limitations in the use of reporter gene technology for analysing the transcription of operons in which the messenger RNA transcript is differentially processed.

Genomic organization and in vivo characterization of proteolytic activity of FtsH of Mycobacterium smegmatis SN2
More LessThe ftsH gene of Mycobacterium smegmatis SN2 (MsftsH) was cloned from two independent partial genomic DNA libraries and characterized, along with the identification of ephA and folE as the neighbouring upstream and downstream genes respectively. The genomic organization of the MsftsH locus was found to be identical to that of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis ftsH gene (MtftsH) and similar to that of other bacterial genera, but with divergence in the upstream region. The MsftsH gene is 2·3 kb in size and encodes the AAA (ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities) family Zn2+-metalloprotease FtsH (MsFtsH) of 85 kDa molecular mass. This was demonstrated from the expression of the full-length recombinant gene in Escherichia coli JM109 cells and from the identification of native MsFtsH in M. smegmatis SN2 cell lysates by Western blotting with anti-MtFtsH and anti-EcFtsH antibodies respectively. The recombinant and the native MsFtsH proteins were found localized to the membrane of E. coli and M. smegmatis cells respectively. Expression of MsFtsH protein in E. coli was toxic and resulted in growth arrest and filamentation of cells. The MsftsH gene did not complement lethality of a ΔftsH3 : : kan mutation in E. coli, but when expressed in E. coli cells, it efficiently degraded conventional FtsH substrates, namely σ 32 protein and the protein translocase subunit SecY, of E. coli cells.

Identification of two new genes involved in twitching motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Mu transposition complexes were used for transposon mutagenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PA68. Mu DNA transposition complexes were assembled with MuA transposase and an artificial mini-Mu transposon in vitro, and introduced into Pseudomonas aeruginosa by electroporation. Eight mutants deficient in twitching motility were isolated. Southern blotting confirmed that the insertions had occurred as single events. DNA sequencing of the region flanking the insertion in the twitching-motility mutants revealed that the mini-Mu transposon had inserted into six different genes, PAO171, PA1822, PAO413, PA4959, PA4551 and PA5040. Four of these have previously been proven to be needed for twitching motility, whereas the PA1822 and PA0171 genes have not previously been shown to be required for twitching motility. The twitching-motility defect in the PA1822 mutant was partially complemented by providing the PA1822 gene in trans, and the defect in the PA0171 mutant was fully complemented when PA0171 was provided. A PA0171 mutant and a PA1822 mutant were constructed by gene replacement in the P. aeruginosa PAO1 strain. These mutants were deficient in twitching motility, showing that both the PA1822 and the PA0171 gene are involved in twitching motility.

Comparison of cytotoxin cytK promoters from Bacillus cereus strain ATCC 14579 and from a B. cereus food-poisoning strain
More LessThe cytotoxin CytK produced by Bacillus cereus is believed to be involved in food-borne diseases. The transcriptional activity of the cytK promoter region in a food-poisoning strain was studied using a reporter gene and compared with that in the reference B. cereus strain ATCC 14579. In the food-poisoning strain, cytK is more strongly transcribed, possibly explaining the pathogenicity. The global regulator PlcR in B. cereus controls several putative virulence factors. It was found that PlcR regulates cytK in this clinical strain despite a mismatch in the PlcR recognition site, as currently defined. This suggests that the PlcR box consensus should be reconsidered and that the PlcR regulon might be larger than suspected. It is also shown that the high level of cytK transcription is not caused by a modification in the PlcR recognition site.

NblA is essential for phycobilisome degradation in Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 but not for development of functional heterocysts
More LessPhycobilisomes (PBS) are the major light-harvesting complexes of cyanobacteria. These usually blue-coloured multiprotein assemblies are rapidly degraded when the organisms are starved for combined nitrogen. This proteolytic process causes a colour change of the cyanobacterial cells from blue-green to yellow-green (‘bleaching’). As is well documented for the unicellular, non-diazotrophic cyanobacteria Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 and Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, a gene termed nblA plays a key role in PBS degradation. Filamentous, diazotrophic cyanobacteria like Anabaena adapt to nitrogen deprivation by differentiation of N2-fixing heterocysts. However, during the first hours after nitrogen deprivation all cells degrade their PBS. When heterocysts mature and nitrogenase becomes active, vegetative cells resynthesize their light-harvesting complexes while in heterocysts the phycobiliprotein content remains very low. Expression and function of nblA in Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 was investigated. This strain has two nblA homologous genes, one on the chromosome (nblA) and one on plasmid delta (nblA-p). Northern blot analysis indicated that only the chromosomal nblA gene is up-regulated upon nitrogen starvation. Mutants with interrupted nblA and nblA-p genes, respectively, grew on N2 and developed functional heterocysts. Mutant ΔnblA-p behaved like the wild-type. However, mutant ΔnblA was unable to degrade its PBS, which was most obvious in non-bleaching heterocysts. The results show that NblA, encoded by the chromosomal nblA gene, is required for PBS degradation in Anabaena but is not essential for heterocyst differentiation.

Heterologous production of the antifungal polyketide antibiotic soraphen A of Sorangium cellulosum So ce26 in Streptomyces lividans
More LessThe antifungal polyketide soraphen A is produced by the myxobacterium Sorangium cellulosum So ce26. The slow growth, swarming motility and general intransigence of the strain for genetic manipulations make industrial strain development, large-scale fermentation and combinatorial biosynthetic manipulation of the soraphen producer very challenging. To provide a better host for soraphen A production and molecular engineering, the biosynthetic gene cluster for this secondary metabolite was integrated into the chromosome of Streptomyces lividans ZX7. The upstream border of the gene cluster in Sor. cellulosum was defined by disrupting sorC, which is proposed to take part in the biosynthesis of methoxymalonyl-coenzyme A, to yield a Sor. cellulosum strain with abolished soraphen A production. Insertional inactivation of orf2 further upstream of sorC had no effect on soraphen A production. The genes sorR, C, D, F and E thus implicated in soraphen biosynthesis were then introduced into an engineered Str. lividans strain that carried the polyketide synthase genes sorA and sorB, and the methyltransferase gene sorM integrated into its chromosome. A benzoate-coenzyme A ligase from Rhodopseudomonas palustris was also included in some constructs. Fermentations with the engineered Str. lividans strains in the presence of benzoate and/or cinnamate yielded soraphen A. Further feeding experiments were used to delineate the biosynthesis of the benzoyl-coenzyme A starter unit of soraphen A in the heterologous host.

Characterization of vaginal microbial communities in adult healthy women using cultivation-independent methods
The normal microbial flora of the vagina plays an important role in preventing genital and urinary tract infections in women. Thus an accurate understanding of the composition and ecology of the ecosystem is important to understanding the aetiology of these diseases. Common wisdom is that lactobacilli dominate the normal vaginal microflora of post-pubertal women. However, this conclusion is based on methods that require cultivation of microbial populations; an approach that is known to yield a biased and incomplete assessment of microbial community structure. In this study cultivation-independent methods were used to analyse samples collected from the mid-vagina of five normal healthy Caucasian women between the ages of 28 and 44. Total microbial community DNA was isolated following resuspension of microbial cells from vaginal swabs. To identify the constituent numerically dominant populations in each community 16S rRNA gene libraries were prepared following PCR amplification using the 8f and 926r primers. From each library, the DNA sequences of approximately 200 16S rRNA clones were determined and subjected to phylogenetic analyses. The diversity and kinds of organisms that comprise the vaginal microbial community varied among women. Species of Lactobacillus appeared to dominate the communities in four of the five women. However, the community of one woman was dominated by Atopobium sp., whereas a second woman had appreciable numbers of Megasphaera sp., Atopobium sp. and Leptotrichia sp., none of which have previously been shown to be common members of the vaginal ecosystem. Of the women whose communities were dominated by lactobacilli, there were two distinct clusters, each of which consisted of a single species. One class consisted of two women with genetically divergent clones that were related to Lactobacillus crispatus, whereas the second group of two women had clones of Lactobacillus iners that were highly related to a single phylotype. These surprising results suggest that culture-independent methods can provide new insights into the diversity of bacterial species found in the human vagina, and this information could prove to be pivotal in understanding risk factors for various infectious diseases.

Effects of mutations in the rpoS gene on cell viability and global gene expression under nitrogen starvation in Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli bearing an rpoS amber or disrupted mutation exhibited a significant decrease in the number of colony-forming units (c.f.u.) when exposed to nitrogen starvation, which was not observed in cells bearing a functional rpoS allele. The decrease in the number of c.f.u. that was observed about 25 h after initiation of nitrogen starvation was prevented by the addition of nitrogen within 3 h but not by the addition of nitrogen at more than 7 h after the initiation of nitrogen starvation, suggesting that a process leading to a decline in c.f.u. starts within this period. DNA microarray analysis of the rpoS mutant showed that a large number of genes including many functionally undefined genes were affected by nitrogen starvation. The expression levels of σ S and σ H regulon genes encoding acid-resistant proteins (hdeA, hdeB, gadA and gadB), DNA-binding protein (dps), chaperones (dnaK, ibpA, ibpB, dnaJ and htpG), chaperonins (mopB and mopA) and energy-metabolism-related proteins (hyaABCDF and gapA), and those of other genes encoding nucleotide-metabolism-related proteins (deoC and deoB), cell-division protein (ftsL), outer-membrane lipoprotein (slp) and DNA-binding protein (stpA) were significantly decreased by 10 h nitrogen starvation. The genes encoding transport/binding proteins (nac, amtB, argT, artJ, potF and hisJ) and amino acid-metabolism-related proteins (glnA, trpB, argG, asnB, argC, gdhA, cstC, ntrB, asd and lysC) were significantly up-regulated under the same condition, some of which are known Ntr genes expressed under nitrogen limitation. On the basis of these results, possible causes of the decrease in the number of c.f.u. under nitrogen starvation are discussed.

Characterization of the Bacillus subtilis YxdJ response regulator as the inducer of expression for the cognate ABC transporter YxdLM
More LessThe genome of Bacillus subtilis, like those of some other AT-rich Gram-positive bacteria, has the uncommon feature of containing several copies of arrangements in which the genes encoding two-component and cognate ABC transporter systems are adjacent. As the function of one of these systems, the product of the yxd locus, is still unknown, it was analysed further in order to get some clues on the physiological role of the gene products it encodes. The yxdJ gene was shown to encode a DNA-binding protein that directly controls transcription of the neighbouring operon encoding the ABC transporter YxdLM. Primer extension and DNase protection experiments allowed precise definition of the yxdLM transcription start and controlling region. Two putative direct repeats were identified that are proposed to be the YxdJ response regulator binding sites. Whole-cell transcriptome analyses revealed that the YxdJ regulon is extremely restricted. In addition to the yxdJKLMyxeA operon, only a few genes involved in modifications of the bacterial cell wall were shown to be regulated by YxdJ.

Characterization of a multicopper oxidase gene cluster in Phanerochaete chrysosporium and evidence of altered splicing of the mco transcripts
More LessA cluster of multicopper oxidase genes (mco1, mco2, mco3, mco4) from the lignin-degrading basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium is described. The four genes share the same transcriptional orientation within a 25 kb region. mco1, mco2 and mco3 are tightly grouped, with intergenic regions of 2·3 and 0·8 kb, respectively, whereas mco4 is located 11 kb upstream of mco1. All are transcriptionally active, as shown by RT-PCR. Comparison of cDNAs and the corresponding genomic sequences identified 14–19 introns within each gene. Based on homology and intron composition, two subfamilies of mco sequences could be identified. The sequences have copper-binding motifs similar to ferroxidase proteins, but different from fungal laccases. Thus, these sequences constitute a novel branch of the multicopper oxidase family. Analysis of several cDNA clones obtained from poly(A) RNA revealed the presence of transcripts of various lengths. Splice variants from mco2, mco3 and mco4 were characterized. They generally exhibited the presence of one to five introns, whereas other transcripts lacked some exons. In all cases, the presence of introns leads to frame shifts that give rise to premature stop codons. In aggregate, these investigations show that P. chrysosporium possesses a novel family of multicopper oxidases which also feature clustering and incomplete processing of some of their transcripts, a phenomenon referred to in this paper as ‘altered splicing’.

Killer toxin of Pichia membranifaciens and its possible use as a biocontrol agent against grey mould disease of grapevine
A. Santos and D. MarquinaThe use of Pichia membranifaciens CYC 1106 killer toxin against Botrytis cinerea was investigated. This strain exerted a broad-specificity killing action against other yeasts and fungi. At pH 4, optimal killer activity was observed at temperatures up to 20 °C. At 25 °C the toxic effect was reduced to 70 %. The killer activity was higher in acidic medium. Above about pH 4·5 activity decreased sharply and was barely noticeable at pH 6. The killer toxin protein from P. membranifaciens CYC 1106 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. SDS-PAGE of the purified killer protein indicated an apparent molecular mass of 18 kDa. Killer toxin production was stimulated in the presence of non-ionic detergents. The toxin concentrations present in the supernatant during optimal production conditions exerted a fungicidal effect on a strain of B. cinerea. The symptoms of infection and grey mould observed in Vitis vinifera plants treated with B. cinerea were prevented in the presence of purified P. membranifaciens killer toxin. The results obtained suggest that P. membranifaciens CYC 1106 killer toxin is of potential use in the biocontrol of B. cinerea.
