Proteomic Delineation of the ArcA Regulon in Salmonella Typhimurium During Anaerobiosis.

ABSTRACT: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is one of the most used models for bacterial pathogenesis and successful infection requires its adaptation to the low oxygen environment in host gastrointestinal tracts. Central to this process is the Arc (aerobic respiratory control) two-component regulatory system that contains a sensor kinase ArcB and a response regulator ArcA. Nevertheless, a comprehensive profile of the ArcA regulon on the proteome level is still lacking in S. Typhimurium. Here we quantitatively profiled Salmonella proteome during anaerobiosis in an arcA-deleting mutant compared with its parental strain. In addition to known processes under its control, notably we found that ArcA represses ethanolamine utilization by directly binding to the promoter region of the eut operon. Furthermore, we found opposing changes of several bacterial genes on the protein and transcript levels in the arcA-deleting mutant including the virulence genes of Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1), thereby indicating potentially prevalent post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms. Altogether, our study provides important new insights into ArcA-dependent bacterial physiology and virulence during Salmonella anaerobiosis.

Project description:Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a Gram-negative pathogen that must successfully adapt to the broad fluctuations in the concentration of dissolved dioxygen encountered in the host. In Escherichia coli, ArcA (Aerobic Respiratory Control) helps the cells to sense and respond to the presence of dioxygen. The global role of ArcA in E. coli is well characterized; however, little is known about its role in anaerobically grown S. Typhimurium.We compared the transcriptional profiles of the virulent wild-type (WT) strain (ATCC 14028s) and its isogenic arcA mutant grown under anaerobic conditions. We found that ArcA directly or indirectly regulates 392 genes (8.5% of the genome); of these, 138 genes are poorly characterized. Regulation by ArcA in S. Typhimurium is similar, but distinct from that in E. coli. Thus, genes/operons involved in core metabolic pathways (e.g., succinyl-CoA, fatty acid degradation, cytochrome oxidase complexes, flagellar biosynthesis, motility, and chemotaxis) were regulated similarly in the two organisms. However, genes/operons present in both organisms, but regulated differently by ArcA in S. Typhimurium included those coding for ethanolamine utilization, lactate transport and metabolism, and succinate dehydrogenases. Salmonella-specific genes/operons regulated by ArcA included those required for propanediol utilization, flagellar genes (mcpAC, cheV), Gifsy-1 prophage genes, and three SPI-3 genes (mgtBC, slsA, STM3784). In agreement with our microarray data, the arcA mutant was non-motile, lacked flagella, and was as virulent in mice as the WT. Additionally, we identified a set of 120 genes whose regulation was shared with the anaerobic redox regulator, Fnr.We have identified the ArcA regulon in anaerobically grown S. Typhimurium. Our results demonstrated that in S. Typhimurium, ArcA serves as a transcriptional regulator coordinating cellular metabolism, flagella biosynthesis, and motility. Furthermore, ArcA and Fnr share in the regulation of 120 S. Typhimurium genes.
