FpvA-mediated ferric pyoverdine uptake in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: identification of aromatic residues in FpvA implicated in ferric pyoverdine binding and transport.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A number of aromatic residues were seen to cluster in the upper portion of the three-dimensional structure of the FpvA ferric pyoverdine receptor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, reminiscent of the aromatic binding pocket for ferrichrome in the FhuA receptor of Escherichia coli. Alanine substitutions in three of these, W362, W391, and F795, markedly compromised ferric pyoverdine binding and transport, consistent with a role of FpvA in ferric pyoverdine recognition.

Interaction of TonB with the outer membrane receptor FpvA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pyoverdine-mediated iron uptake by the FpvA receptor in the outer membrane of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is dependent on the inner membrane protein TonB1. This energy transducer couples the proton-electrochemical potential of the inner membrane to the transport event. To shed more light upon this process, a recombinant TonB1 protein lacking the N-terminal inner membrane anchor (TonB(pp)) was constr...
متن کاملFpvA receptor involvement in pyoverdine biosynthesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Alignment of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa ferric pyoverdine receptor, FpvA, with similar ferric-siderophore receptors revealed that the mature protein carries an extension of ca. 70 amino acids at its N terminus, an extension shared by the ferric pseudobactin receptors of P. putida. Deletion of fpvA from the chromosome of P. aeruginosa reduced pyoverdine production in this organism, as a result o...
متن کاملInsertion mutagenesis of the ferric pyoverdine receptor FpvA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: identification of permissive sites and a region important for ligand binding.
Insertion of an 18-amino-acid-encoding sequence within the fpvA gene identified permissive sites at residues Y350, A402, R451, R521, and R558, consistent with these residues occurring in extramembranous loop regions of the protein. Insertions at R451, R521, and R558 did not adversely affect receptor function, although insertions at Y350 and A402 compromised ferric pyoverdine binding and uptake....
متن کاملPyoverdine-mediated regulation of FpvA synthesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: involvement of a probable extracytoplasmic-function sigma factor, FpvI.
A search of the pvd pyoverdine biosynthesis locus of Pseudomonas aeruginosa identified an open reading frame, PA2387, whose product exhibited a sequence similar to those of a number of so-called extracytoplasmic- function sigma factors responsible for siderophore-dependent expression of iron-siderophore receptors in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas putida. Deletion of this gene, dubbed fpvI, co...
متن کاملPyoverdine-mediated iron uptake in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: the Tat system is required for PvdN but not for FpvA transport.
Under iron-limiting conditions, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 secretes a fluorescent siderophore called pyoverdine (Pvd). After chelating iron, this ferric siderophore is transported back into the cells via the outer membrane receptor FpvA. The Pvd-dependent iron uptake pathway requires several essential genes involved in both the synthesis of Pvd and the uptake of ferric Pvd inside the cell. A p...
