Characterization of CobB kinetics and inhibition by nicotinamide.

ABSTRACT: Lysine acetylation has emerged as a global protein regulation system in all domains of life. Sirtuins, or Sir2-like enzymes, are a family of histone deacetylases characterized by their employing NAD+ as a co-substrate. Sirtuins can deacetylate several acetylated proteins, but a consensus substrate recognition sequence has not yet been established. Product inhibition of many eukaryotic sirtuins by nicotinamide and its analogues has been studied in vitro due to their potential role as anticancer agents. In this work, the kinetics of CobB, the main Escherichia coli deacetylase, have been characterized. To our knowledge, this is the first kinetic characterization of a sirtuin employing a fully acetylated and natively folded protein as a substrate. CobB deacetylated several acetyl-CoA synthetase acetylated lysines with a single kinetic rate. In addition, in vitro nicotinamide inhibition of CobB has been characterized, and the intracellular nicotinamide concentrations have been determined under different growth conditions. The results suggest that nicotinamide can act as a CobB regulator in vivo. A nicotinamidase deletion strain was thus phenotypically characterized, and it behaved similarly to the ?cobB strain. The results of this work demonstrate the potential regulatory role of the nicotinamide metabolite in vivo.

Project description:Acetylation of lysine residues is conserved in all three kingdoms; however, its role in prokaryotes is unknown. Here we demonstrate that acetylation enables the reference bacterium Escherichia coli to withstand environmental stress. Specifically, the bacterium reaches higher cell densities and becomes more resistant to heat and oxidative stress when its proteins are acetylated, as shown by deletion of the gene encoding acetyltransferase YfiQ and the gene encoding deacetylase CobB, as well as by overproducing YfiQ and CobB. Furthermore, we show that the increase in oxidative stress resistance with acetylation is due to the induction of catalase activity through enhanced katG expression. We also found that two-component system proteins CpxA, PhoP, UvrY, and BasR are associated with cell catalase activity and may be responsible as the connection between bacterial acetylation and the stress response. This is the first demonstration of a specific environmental role of acetylation in prokaryotes. Overnight cultures of cobB/pCA24N-cobB and cobB/pCA24N were cultured to a turbidity of 0.05 at 600 nm and grown 2 h. Then, 0.1 mM IPTG was added for another 4 h to induce cobB expression, and then the cells were exposed to 20 mM H2O2 for 10 min. Cell pellets were collected and resuspended in RNAlater (Ambion Inc., Austin, TX), and total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA). The E. coli GeneChip Genome 2.0 array (Affymetrix, P/N 900551) was used, and cDNA synthesis, fragmentation, and hybridizations were performed as described previously. If the gene with the larger transcription rate did not have a consistent transcription rate based on the 11-15 probe pairs (P-value less than 0.05), these genes were discarded. A gene was considered differentially expressed when the P-value for comparing two chips was lower than 0.05 (to assure that the change in gene expression was statistically significant and that false positives arise less than 5%) and if their fold change is higher than the standard deviation for the whole genome.
