Systems approach for identification of the Escherichia coli K-12 LysR-type transcriptional regulators function.

ABSTRACT: It is now possible to discover the physiological function of LysR-family transcription factors (LLTF) in E. coli using ChIP-Exo (in vivo DNA-binding), growth phenotype, conserved gene clustering, and transcriptional analysis (RNA-seq deletion mutants). The LysR-family regulator phenotype microarray has been detected for YbdO, YbeF, YcaN, YiaU, and YgfI deletion mutants and for the isogenic E. coli BW25113 strain in minimal medium at carbon/nitrogen starvation or L-threonine supplement conditions. The LLTF YbdO and YgfI regulation is important for bacterial growth adaptation to low pH with citrate supplementation or glycerol as the carbon source, respectively. A systems analysis approach allows for the identification of the YneJ (putrescine utilization), YgfI, and YbdO transcription factor regulated genes in Escherichia coli. YgfI regulates DhaKLM, the phosphotransferase system involved in glycerol and dihydroxyacetone utilization. YbdO is a repressor for ybdMN and is likely involved in citrate lyase regulation. YneJ, re-named PtrR, directly controls the expression of the succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase Sad (YneI) and is important for bacterial growth in the presence of L-glutamate as a nitrogen source. The sad promoter is repressed by PtrR. PtrR is also a repressor of the fnrS gene, encoding a small regulatory RNA involved in the regulation of the sodB gene, as shown by RNA-seq data. A 15-bp palindromic PtrR-binding site was identified in the upstream regions of the sad / ptrR and fnrS genes and confirmed by ChIP-Exo and fluorescent polarization assays. The PtrR-dependent regulation of fnrS likely leads to a regulatory cascade induced by this small RNA.

Project description:Metabolism is fundamental to life, all life activities are sustained through metabolism. Metabolic engineering, while modifying host endogenous metabolic network or introducing heterologous pathway for biotechnological applications, often results in unfitness and suboptimal characteristics, because of the lack of full knowledge on host metabolism. Adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE), harnessing the nature of life -- evolution, has become a potent approach in phenotype optimization, environmental adaptation, and cell biology study1–3. Through ALE, alternative pathways of β-alanine biosynthesis4, pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP) biosynthesis5, isoleucine biosynthesis6, as well as ATP generation7 have been uncovered; E. coli aerobic citrate utilization8,9 and various synthetic C1-trophy10–14 have been realized. In this study, we describe E. coli recruits the same workforce, Sad, in evolution through various strategies, i.e., catalytic efficiency improvement, gene dose increase, and gene expression regulations, to overcome metabolic damages (Fig. 1). Sad, i.e. NAD(P)+-dependent succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH), is an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) family protein. Sad oxidizes succinate semialdehyde to succinate, preventing accumulation of the toxic aldehyde intermediate in nitrogen metabolism, such as putrescine, arginine and γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) degradations15–17. Some bacteria, for example E. coli, possess also a NADP+-dependent SSADH, GabD15,18. SSADH is ubiquitous in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In human, it involves in catabolism of GABA, a major neurotransmitter, its malfunction leads to a disorder SSADH deficiency19. In plants, SSADH involves in leaf development and morphogenesis20 as well as defense of abiotic stress21. And in cyanobacteria, SSADH is an essential enzyme of its uncanonical tricarboxylic acid cycle. SSADH was also found to be able to oxidize glutarate semialdehyde, participating in lysine catabolism in bacteria.
