A strain-specific genomic island encodes regulatory proteins to activate type VI secretion system expression in the squid symbiont Vibrio fischeri.


ABSTRACT: We used the bioluminescent squid symbiont, Vibrio fischeri, to identify essential regulatory factors that control expression and function of a strain-specific T6SS encoded within a genomic island. Random transposon mutagenesis revealed that three genes located on the T6SS2-encoding genomic island are necessary to activate expression of a T6SS reporter. We used a proteomics approach to identify proteins that were differentially abundant in mutant strains compared to the wild type when cells were grown in a high-viscosity media.

Bacteria have evolved diverse strategies to compete for a niche, including the type VI secretion system (T6SS), a contact-dependent killing mechanism. T6SSs are common in bacterial pathogens, commensals, and beneficial symbionts, where they affect the diversity and spatial structure of host-associated microbial communities. Although T6SS gene clusters are often located on genomic islands (GIs), which may be transferred as a unit, the regulatory strategies that promote gene expression once the T6  ...[more]
