Cyanophage MarR-type transcription factor regulates host RNase E expression


ABSTRACT: The marine picocyanobacterium Prochlorococcus contributes significantly to global primary production, and its abundance and diversity is shaped in part by viral infection. Here, we identified a cyanophage-encoded MarR-type transcription factor that induces gene expression of host Prochlorococcus MED4 endoribonuclease (RNase) E during phage infection. The increase in rne transcript levels relies on the phage (p)MarR-mediated activation of an alternative promoter that gives rise to a truncated, yet, enzymatically fully functional RNase E isoform. In this study, we demonstrate that pMarR binds to an atypical activator site downstream of the transcriptional start site and that binding is enhanced in the presence of Ca2+ ions. Furthermore, we show that dimeric pMaR interacts with the α subunit of RNA polymerase, and we identified amino acid residues S66, R67 and G106, which are important for Ca2+ binding, DNA binding and dimerization of pMarR, respectively.
