DNA binding specificity and sequence of Xanthomonas campestris catabolite gene activator protein-like protein.

ABSTRACT: The Xanthomonas campestris catabolite gene activator protein-like protein (CLP) can substitute for the Escherichia coli catabolite gene activator protein (CAP) in transcription activation at the lac promoter (V. de Crecy-Lagard, P. Glaser, P. Lejeune, O. Sismeiro, C. Barber, M. Daniels, and A. Danchin, J. Bacteriol. 172:5877-5883, 1990). We show that CLP has the same DNA binding specificity as CAP at positions 5, 6, and 7 of the DNA half site. In addition, we show that the amino acids at positions 1 and 2 of the recognition helix of CLP are identical to the amino acids at positions 1 and 2 of the recognition helix of CAP:i.e., Arg at position 1 and Glu at position 2.

Catabolite activator protein: DNA binding and transcription activation.

Project description:Recently determined structures of the Escherichia coli catabolite activator protein (CAP) in complex with DNA, and in complex with the RNA polymerase alpha subunit C-terminal domain (alphaCTD) and DNA, have yielded insights into how CAP binds DNA and activates transcription. Comparison of multiple structures of CAP-DNA complexes has revealed the contributions of direct and indirect readout to DNA binding by CAP. The structure of the CAP-alphaCTD-DNA complex has provided the first structural description of interactions between a transcription activator and its functional target within the general transcription machinery. Using the structure of the CAP-alphaCTD-DNA complex, the structure of an RNA polymerase-DNA complex, and restraints from biophysical, biochemical and genetic experiments, it has been possible to construct detailed three-dimensional models of intact class I and class II transcription activation complexes.

The adsorption protein genes of Xanthomonas campestris filamentous phages determining host specificity.

Project description:Gene III (gIII) of phiLf, a filamentous phage specifically infecting Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, was previously shown to encode a virion-associated protein (pIII) required for phage adsorption. In this study, the transcription start site for the gene and the N-terminal sequence of the protein were determined, resulting in the revision of the translation initiation site from the one previously predicted for this gene. For comparative study, the gIII of phiXv, a filamentous phage specifically infecting X. campestris pv. vesicatoria, was cloned and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences of these two pIIIs exhibit a high degree of identity in their C-terminal halves and possess the structural features typical of the adsorption proteins of filamentous phages: a signal sequence in the N terminus, a long glycine-rich region near the center, and a hydrophobic membrane anchorage domain in the C terminus. The regions between gIII and the upstream gVIII, 128 nucleotides in both phages, are larger than those of other filamentous phages. A hybrid phage of phiXv, consisting of the phiLf pIII and all the other components derived from phiXv, was able to infect X. campestris pv. campestris but not X. campestris pv. vesicatoria, indicating that gIII is the gene specifying host specificity and demonstrating the interchangeability of the pIIIs.

Specific binding of the Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria AraC-type transcriptional activator HrpX to plant-inducible promoter boxes.

Project description:The pathogenicity of the plant-pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria depends on a type III secretion system which is encoded by the 23-kb hrp (hypersensitive response and pathogenicity) gene cluster. Expression of the hrp operons is strongly induced in planta and in a special minimal medium and depends on two regulatory proteins, HrpG and HrpX. In this study, DNA affinity enrichment was used to demonstrate that the AraC-type transcriptional activator HrpX binds to a conserved cis-regulatory element, the plant-inducible promoter (PIP) box (TTCGC-N(15)-TTCGC), present in the promoter regions of four hrp operons. No binding of HrpX was observed when DNA fragments lacking a PIP box were used. HrpX also bound to a DNA fragment containing an imperfect PIP box (TTCGC-N(8)-TTCGT). Dinucleotide replacements in each half-site of the PIP box strongly decreased binding of HrpX, while simultaneous dinucleotide replacements in both half-sites completely abolished binding. Based on the complete genome sequence of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria, putative plant-inducible promoters consisting of a PIP box and a -10 promoter motif were identified in the promoter regions of almost all HrpX-activated genes. Bioinformatic analyses and reverse transcription-PCR experiments revealed novel HrpX-dependent genes, among them a NUDIX hydrolase gene and several genes with a predicted role in the degradation of the plant cell wall. We conclude that HrpX is the most downstream component of the hrp regulatory cascade, which is proposed to directly activate most genes of the hrpX regulon via binding to corresponding PIP boxes.

Identification of the protein sequence of the type III effector XopD from the B100 strain of Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris.

Project description:During evolution, pathogens have developed sophisticated strategies to suppress plant defense responses and promote successful colonization of their hosts. In their attempt to quell host resistance, Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacteria inject type III effectors (T3Es) into plant cells, where they typically target plant components essential for the establishment of defense responses. We have recently shown that the XopD T3E from the strain B100 of Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (XopDXccB100) is able to target AtMYB30, a positive regulator of Arabidopsis defense responses. This protein interaction leads to inhibition of AtMYB30 transcriptional activity and promotion of bacterial virulence. Here, we describe the identification of the complete protein sequence of XopDXccB100, which presents an N-terminal extension of 40 amino acids with respect to the protein annotated in public databases. The implications of this finding are discussed.

Functional characterization of the type III secretion substrate specificity switch protein HpaC from Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria.

Project description:Pathogenicity of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria depends on a type III secretion (T3S) system which translocates effector proteins into eukaryotic cells and is associated with an extracellular pilus and a translocon in the host plasma membrane. T3S substrate specificity is controlled by the cytoplasmic switch protein HpaC, which interacts with the C-terminal domain of the inner membrane protein HrcU (HrcU(C)). HpaC promotes the secretion of translocon and effector proteins but prevents the efficient secretion of the early T3S substrate HrpB2, which is required for pilus assembly. In this study, complementation assays with serial 10-amino-acid HpaC deletion derivatives revealed that the T3S substrate specificity switch depends on N- and C-terminal regions of HpaC, whereas amino acids 42 to 101 appear to be dispensable for the contribution of HpaC to the secretion of late substrates. However, deletions in the central region of HpaC affect the secretion of HrpB2, suggesting that the mechanisms underlying HpaC-dependent control of early and late substrates can be uncoupled. The results of interaction and expression studies with HpaC deletion derivatives showed that amino acids 112 to 212 of HpaC provide the binding site for HrcU(C) and severely reduce T3S when expressed ectopically in the wild-type strain. We identified a conserved phenylalanine residue at position 175 of HpaC that is required for both protein function and the binding of HpaC to HrcU(C). Taking these findings together, we concluded that the interaction between HpaC and HrcU(C) is essential but not sufficient for T3S substrate specificity switching.

Crystal structure of the YajQ-family protein XC_3703 from Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris.

Project description:As an important bacterial second messenger, bis-(3',5')-cyclic diguanylate (cyclic di-GMP or c-di-GMP) has been implicated in numerous biological activities, including biofilm formation, motility, survival and virulence. These processes are manipulated by the binding of c-di-GMP to its receptors. XC_3703 from the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, which belongs to the YajQ family of proteins, has recently been identified as a potential c-di-GMP receptor. XC_3703, together with XC_2801, functions as a transcription factor activating virulence-related genes, which can be reversed by the binding of c-di-GMP to XC_3703. However, the structural basis of how c-di-GMP regulates XC_3703 remains elusive. In this study, the structure of XC_3703 was determined to 2.1 Å resolution using the molecular-replacement method. The structure of XC_3703 consists of two domains adopting the same topology, which is similar to that of the RNA-recognition motif (RRM). Arg65, which is conserved among the c-di-GMP-binding subfamily of the YajQ family of proteins, together with Phe80 in domain II, forms a putative c-di-GMP binding site.

A HU-like protein is required for full virulence in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris.

Project description:Bacteria harbour several abundant small DNA-binding proteins known as nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs) that contribute to the structure of the bacterial nucleoid as well as to gene regulation. Although the function of NAPs as global transcriptional regulators has been comprehensively studied in the model organism Escherichia coli, their regulatory functions in other bacteria remain relatively poorly understood. Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) is a gram-negative bacterium that causes black rot disease in almost all members of the crucifer family. In previous work, we demonstrated that a Fis homologue protein, which we named Fis-like protein (Flp), contributes to the regulation of virulence, type III secretion, and a series of other phenotypes in Xcc. Here we have examined the role of XC_1355, which is predicted to encode a DNA-binding protein belonging to the HU family herein named HU-like protein (Hlp). We show that mutation of XC_1355 in Xcc reduces the virulence, extracellular polysaccharide production, and cell motility, but has no effect on the production of extracellular enzymes and induction of the hypersensitive response. These data together with transcriptome analysis indicate that hlp is a previously uncharacterized gene involved in virulence that has partially overlapping and complementary functions with flp in Xcc, although the two regulators have opposite effects on the expression of genes involved in type III secretion. The findings add to our understanding of the complex regulatory pathways that act to regulate virulence in Xcc.

Klebsiella aerogenes catabolite gene activator protein and the gene encoding it (crp).

Project description:The catabolite gene activator protein from Klebsiella aerogenes (CAPK) and the corresponding protein from Escherichia coli (CAPE) were shown to be nearly identical. Both CAPK and CAPE activated transcription from the CAP-dependent promoters derived from E. coli and K. aerogenes. The crp gene from K. aerogenes (encoding CAP) is tightly linked to rpsL. The nucleotide sequence of crp predicts an amino acid sequence for CAPK that differs in only one position from that of CAPE.
