Catabolite repression control of pyocyanin biosynthesis at an intersection of primary and secondary metabolism in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the catabolite repression control (Crc) protein repressed the formation of the blue pigment pyocyanin in response to a preferred carbon source (succinate) by interacting with phzM mRNA, which encodes a key enzyme in pyocyanin biosynthesis. Crc bound to an extended imperfect recognition sequence that was interrupted by the AUG translation initiation codon.

Effect of fetal and adult bovine serum on pyocyanin production in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from clinical and soil samples
Objective(s): Pyocyanin is a blue-greenish redox-active pigment, produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with a wide range of biological and biotechnological applications. Pyocyanin biosynthesis is regulated by the quorum-sensing (QS) system in which the expression of QS genes and QS-controlled virulence genes may be affected by serum as a complex medium. In the current study, effects of adult bovi...
متن کاملCrc is involved in catabolite repression control of the bkd operons of Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Crc (catabolite repression control) protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has shown to be involved in carbon regulation of several pathways. In this study, the role of Crc in catabolite repression control has been studied in Pseudomonas putida. The bkd operons of P. putida and P. aeruginosa encode the inducible multienzyme complex branched-chain keto acid dehydrogenase, which is regulated in both s...
متن کاملThe Pseudomonas aeruginosa CrcZ RNA interferes with Hfq-mediated riboregulation
The RNA chaperone Hfq regulates virulence and metabolism in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. During carbon catabolite repression (CCR) Hfq together with the catabolite repression control protein Crc can act as a translational repressor of catabolic genes. Upon relief of CCR, the level of the Hfq-titrating RNA CrcZ is increasing, which in turn abrogates Hfq-mediated translation...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of Catabolite Repression Control
Independently controlled, inducible, catabolic genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa are subject to strong catabolite repression control by intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Mutants which exhibited a pleiotropic loss of catabolite repression control of multiple pathways were isolated. The mutations mapped in the li-min region of the P. aeruginosa chromosome near argB and pyrE and were de...
متن کاملThe Pseudomonas aeruginosa Catabolite Repression Control Protein Crc Is Devoid of RNA Binding Activity
The Crc protein has been shown to mediate catabolite repression control in Pseudomonas, leading to a preferential assimilation of carbon sources. It has been suggested that Crc acts as a translational repressor of mRNAs, encoding functions involved in uptake and breakdown of different carbon sources. Moreover, the regulatory RNA CrcZ, the level of which is increased in the presence of less pref...
