The interaction of proteins implicated in dissimilatory metal reduction by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (outer membrane [OM] proteins OmcA, MtrB, and MtrC; OM-associated protein MtrA; periplasmic protein CctA; and cytoplasmic membrane protein CymA) were characterized by protein purification, analytical ultracentrifugation, and cross-linking methods. Five of these proteins are heme proteins, OmcA (83 kDa), MtrC (75 kDa), MtrA (32 kDa), CctA (19 kDa), and CymA (21 kDa), and can be visualized after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis by heme staining. We show for the first time that MtrC, MtrA, and MtrB form a 198-kDa complex with a 1:1:1 stoichiometry. These proteins copurify through anion-exchange chromatography, and the purified complex has the ability to reduce multiple forms of Fe(III) and Mn(IV). Additionally, MtrA fractionates with the OM through sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, and MtrA comigrates with MtrB in native gels. Protein cross-linking of whole cells with 1% formaldehyde show new heme bands of 160, 151, 136, and 59 kDa. Using antibodies to detect each protein separately, heme proteins OmcA and MtrC were shown to cross-link, yielding the 160-kDa band. Consistent with copurification results, MtrB cross-links with MtrA, forming high-molecular-mass bands of approximately 151 and 136 kDa. 相似文献

AIM: To determine if the outer membrane (OM) cytochromes OmcA and OmcB of the metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 are lipoproteins, and to assess cell surface exposure of the cytochromes by radioiodination. METHODS AND RESULTS: In anaerobic MR-1 cells grown with (3)H-palmitoleic acid, both OmcA and OmcB were radiolabelled. The identities of these bands were confirmed by the absence of each radiolabelled band in the respective mutants lacking individual OM cytochromes. Radioiodination of cell surface proteins in anaerobic cells resulted in (125)I-labelled OmcA. The identity of this band was confirmed by its absence in an OmcA-minus mutant. A ubiquitous radioiodinated band that migrates similarly to OmcB precluded the ability to determine the potential cell surface exposure of OmcB by this method. CONCLUSIONS: Both OmcA and OmcB are lipoproteins, and OmcA is cell surface exposed. SIGNIFICANCE: The lipoprotein modification of these OM cytochromes could be important for their localization or incorporation into the OM. The cell surface exposure of OmcA could allow it to directly transfer electrons to extracellular electron acceptors (e.g. manganese oxides) and is consistent with its in vivo role. 相似文献

AIM: To determine if the outer membrane (OM) cytochromes of the metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 are exposed on the cell surface. METHODS AND RESULTS: MR-1 cells were incubated with proteinase K or buffer and the resulting degradation of the OM cytochromes was examined by Western blotting. The periplasmic fumarate reductase (control) was not degraded. The OM cytochromes OmcA and OmcB were significantly degraded by proteinase K (71 and 31%, respectively). Immunofluorescence confirmed a prominent cell surface exposure of OmcA and a partial exposure of OmcB and the noncytochrome OM protein MtrB. CONCLUSIONS: The cytochromes OmcA and OmcB are exposed on the outer face of the OM. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The cell surface exposure of these cytochromes could allow them to directly contact extracellular insoluble electron acceptors (e.g. manganese oxides) and is consistent with their in vivo role. 相似文献

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is a facultatively anaerobic bacterium capable of using soluble and insoluble forms of manganese [Mn(III/IV)] and iron [Fe(III)] as terminal electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration. To assess the structural association of two outer membrane-associated c-type decaheme cytochromes (i.e., OmcA [SO1779] and MtrC [SO1778]) and their ability to reduce soluble Fe(III)-nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), we expressed these proteins with a C-terminal tag in wild-type S. oneidensis and a mutant deficient in these genes (i.e., Delta omcA mtrC). Endogenous MtrC copurified with tagged OmcA in wild-type Shewanella, suggesting a direct association. To further evaluate their possible interaction, both proteins were purified to near homogeneity following the independent expression of OmcA and MtrC in the Delta omcA mtrC mutant. Each purified cytochrome was confirmed to contain 10 hemes and exhibited Fe(III)-NTA reductase activity. To measure binding, MtrC was labeled with the multiuse affinity probe 4',5'-bis(1,3,2-dithioarsolan-2-yl)fluorescein (1,2-ethanedithiol)2, which specifically associates with a tetracysteine motif engineered at the C terminus of MtrC. Upon titration with OmcA, there was a marked increase in fluorescence polarization indicating the formation of a high-affinity protein complex (Kd < 500 nM) between MtrC and OmcA whose binding was sensitive to changes in ionic strength. Following association, the OmcA-MtrC complex was observed to have enhanced Fe(III)-NTA reductase specific activity relative to either protein alone, demonstrating that OmcA and MtrC can interact directly with each other to form a stable complex that is consistent with their role in the electron transport pathway of S. oneidensis MR-1. 相似文献

In vivo protein structures and protein-protein interactions are critical to the function of proteins in biological systems. As a complementary approach to traditional protein interaction identification methods, cross-linking strategies are beginning to provide additional data on protein and protein complex topological features. Previously, photocleavable protein interaction reporter (pcPIR) technology was demonstrated by cross-linking pure proteins and protein complexes and the use of ultraviolet light to cleave or release cross-linked peptides to enable identification. In the present report, the pcPIR strategy is applied to Escherichia coli cells, and in vivo protein interactions and topologies are measured. More than 1600 labeled peptides from E. coli were identified, indicating that many protein sites react with pcPIR in vivo. From those labeled sites, 53 in vivo intercross-linked peptide pairs were identified and manually validated. Approximately half of the interactions have been reported using other techniques, although detailed structures exist for very few. Three proteins or protein complexes with detailed crystallography structures are compared to the cross-linking results obtained from in vivo application of pcPIR technology. 相似文献

When grown under anaerobic conditions, Shewanella putrefaciens MR-1 synthesizes multiple outer membrane (OM) cytochromes, some of which have a role in the use of insoluble electron acceptors (e.g., MnO2) for anaerobic respiration. The cytochromes OmcA and OmcB are localized to the OM and the OM-like intermediate-density membrane (IM) in MR-1. The components necessary for proper localization of these cytochromes to the OM have not been identified. A gene replacement mutant (strain MTRB1) lacking the putative OM protein MtrB was isolated and characterized. The specific cytochrome content of the OM of MTRB1 was only 36% that of MR-1. This was not the result of a general decline in cytochrome content, however, because the cytoplasmic membrane (CM) and soluble fractions were not cytochrome deficient. While OmcA and OmcB were detected in the OM and IM fractions of MTRB1, significant amounts were mislocalized to the CM. OmcA was also detected in the soluble fraction of MTRB1. While OmcA and OmcB in MR-1 fractions were resistant to solubilization with Triton X-100 in the presence of Mg2+, Triton X-100 readily solubilized these proteins from all subcellular fractions of MTRB1. Together, these data suggest that MtrB is required for the proper localization and insertion of OmcA and OmcB into the OM of MR-1. The inability of MTRB1 to properly insert these, and possibly other, proteins into its OM likely contributes to its marked deficiency in manganese(IV) and iron(III) reduction. While the localization of another putative OM cytochrome (MtrF) could not be directly determined, an mtrF gene replacement mutant exhibited wild-types rates of Mn(IV) and Fe(III) reduction. Therefore, even if MtrF were mislocalized in MTRB1, it would not contribute to the loss of metal reduction activity in this strain. 相似文献

We present results from a novel strategy that enables concurrent identification of protein-protein interactions and topologies in living cells without specific antibodies or genetic manipulations for immuno-/affinity purifications. The strategy consists of (i) a chemical cross-linking reaction: intact cell labeling with a novel class of chemical cross-linkers, protein interaction reporters (PIRs); (ii) two-stage mass spectrometric analysis: stage 1 identification of PIR-labeled proteins and construction of a restricted database by two-dimensional LC/MSMS and stage 2 analysis of PIR-labeled peptides by multiplexed LC/FTICR-MS; and (iii) data analysis: identification of cross-linked peptides and proteins of origin using accurate mass and other constraints. The primary advantage of the PIR approach and distinction from current technology is that protein interactions together with topologies are detected in native biological systems by stabilizing protein complexes with new covalent bonds while the proteins are present in the original cellular environment. Thus, weak or transient interactions or interactions that require properly folded, localized, or membrane-bound proteins can be labeled and identified through the PIR approach. This strategy was applied to Shewanella oneidensis bacterial cells, and initial studies resulted in identification of a set of protein-protein interactions and their contact/binding regions. Furthermore most identified interactions involved membrane proteins, suggesting that the PIR approach is particularly suited for studies of membrane protein-protein interactions, an area under-represented with current widely used approaches. 相似文献

AIM: To determine if the outer membrane (OM) cytochromes OmcA and OmcB of the metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 have distinct or overlapping roles in the reduction of insoluble manganese(IV) oxide. METHODS AND RESULTS: The gene replacement mutant (OMCA1) which lacks OmcA was partially deficient in Mn(IV) reduction. Complementation of OMCA1 with a vector (pVK21) that contains omcB but not omcA restored Mn(IV) reduction to levels that were even greater than those of wild-type. Examination of the OM of OMCA1/pVK21 revealed greater than wild-type levels of OmcB protein and specific haem content. CONCLUSIONS: Overexpression of OmcB can compensate for the absence of OmcA in the reduction of insoluble Mn(IV) oxides. Therefore, there is at least a partial overlap in the roles of these OM cytochromes in the reduction of insoluble Mn(IV) oxide. SIGNIFICANCE: The overlapping roles of these two cytochromes has important implications for understanding the mechanism by which MR-1 reduces insoluble metal oxides. There is no obligatory sequential electron transfer from one cytochrome to the other. They could both potentially serve as terminal reductases for extracellular electron acceptors. 相似文献

Upregulation of immunoglobulin D-specific receptors (IgD-R) on CD4+ T cells may facilitate their interaction with specific carbohydrate moieties uniquely associated with membrane IgD on B cells. Previous studies have shown that upregulation of IgD-R facilitates cognate T-B cell interactions by mediating bidirectional signaling resulting in increased antibody responses and clonal expansion of antigen-specific T cells. Murine T hybridoma cells, 7C5, constitutively express IgD-R, as has been confirmed by staining with biotinylated IgD. Earlier studies have shown that inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) completely prevented upregulation of IgD-R in response to oligomeric IgD, suggesting that cross-linking of IgD-R may induce signal transduction and functional consequences through one or more PTK activation pathways, leading to upregulation of IgD-R. In the present study we show that cross-linking of IgD-R by oligomeric IgD indeed results in (a) T cell activation as seen by tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins, (b) tyrosine phosphorylation of p56 Lck and PLC-gamma in 7C5 T hybridoma cells, and (c) phosphorylation of an approximately 29-kDa band that exhibits strong affinity for IgD. We analyzed tyrosine phosphorylation of p56 Lck and PLC-gamma in BALB/c splenic T cells that were exposed to oligomeric IgD both in vivo and in vitro. In vitro cross-linking as well as in vivo followed by in vitro cross-linking of IgD-R resulted in enhanced phosphorylation of p56 Lck and moderate tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma. These results suggest that interactions between IgD-R and IgD mediate signal transduction and support our previous findings that IgD-R+ T cells enhance cognate T cell-B cell interactions and antibody production. 相似文献

Membrane proteins are crucial for many essential cellular processes. As membrane proteins function in complexes, methods to detect and to characterize membrane protein-protein interactions are undoubtedly required. Therefore, we developed the "Membrane-Strep-tagged protein interaction experiment" (Membrane-SPINE) that combines the specific purification of a Strep-tagged membrane protein with the reversible fixation of protein complexes by formaldehyde cross-linking. In combination with MS analysis, we suggest Membrane-SPINE as a powerful tool to identify unknown interaction partners of membrane proteins in vivo. 相似文献

Microbial biofilms represent heterogeneous populations of cells that form intimate contacts. Within these populations cells communicate, cooperate and compete. Myxobacteria are noted for their complex social interactions, including gliding motility and lipoprotein exchange. Here, we investigated cis protein sequence and cellular behaviour requirements for lipoprotein transfer between Myxococcus xanthus cells. Specifically, an outer membrane (OM) type II signal sequence (SS) fused to the heterologous mCherry fluorescent reporter resulted in OM localization. When donor cells harbouring SS(OM)-mCherry were mixed with GFP-labelled recipient cells they developed red fluorescence. Our results surprisingly showed that a type II SS for OM localization, but not inner membrane localization, was necessary and sufficient for rapid and efficient heterologous protein transfer. Importantly, transfer did not occur in liquid or on surfaces where cells were poorly aligned. We conclude that cell-cell contact and alignment is a critical step for lipoprotein exchange. We hypothesize that protein transfer facilitates cooperative myxobacteria behaviours. 相似文献

A great loss has been suffered by microbial infectious diseases under intensive shrimp farming in recent years. In this background, the understanding of shrimp innate immunity becomes an importantly scientific issue, but little is known about the heterogeneous protein–protein interaction between pathogenic cells and hosts, which is a key step for the invading microbes to infect internet organs through bloodstream. In the present study, bacterial outer membrane (OM) protein array and pull-down approaches are used to isolate both Vibrio parahaemolyticus OM proteins that bind to shrimp serum proteins and the shrimp serum proteins that interact with bacterial cells, respectively. Three interacting shrimp serum proteins, hemocyanin, β-1,3-glucan binding protein and LV_HP_RA36F08r and thirty interacting OM proteins were determined. They form 63 heterogeneous protein–protein interactions. Nine out of the 30 OM proteins were randomly demonstrated to be up-regulated or down-regulated when bacterial cells were cultured with shrimp sera, indicating the biological significance of the network. The interesting findings uncover the complexity of struggle between host immunity and bacterial infection. Compared with our previous report on heterogeneous interactome between fish grill and bacterial OM proteins, the present study further extends the investigation from lower vertebrates to invertebrates and develops a bacterial OM protein array to identify the OM proteins bound with shrimp serum proteins, which elevates the frequencies of the bound OM proteins. Our results highlight the way to determine and understand the heterogeneous interaction between hosts and microbes. 相似文献

Identification and mapping of protein-protein interactions by a combination of cross-linking, cleavage, and proteomics 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Protein-protein interactions are vital for almost all cellular functions, and many require the formation of multiprotein complexes. Identification of the macroscopic and microscopic protein interactions within these complexes is essential in understanding their mechanisms, both under physiologic as well as pathologic conditions. This review describes the current technology available to investigate interactions between proteins utilizing chemical cross-linking and site-directed cleavage reagents, outlining the necessary steps involved in identifying interacting proteins both in vitro and in vivo. Once interacting proteins are identified, more information about the architecture of the assemblies is necessary. Unique separation techniques coupled with cross-linking and mass spectrometry can now identify specific interaction sites and lead to the development of quaternary structural protein models. Furthermore, combination of these methods with proteomic approaches enables the identification and analysis of complex interactions in vivo. Finally, future directions in cross-linking methodologies are discussed. 相似文献

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 restores menaquinone synthesis to a menaquinone-negative mutant 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mechanisms underlying the use of insoluble electron acceptors by metal-reducing bacteria, such as Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, are currently under intensive study. Current models for shuttling electrons across the outer membrane (OM) of MR-1 include roles for OM cytochromes and the possible excretion of a redox shuttle. While MR-1 is able to release a substance that restores the ability of a menaquinone (MK)-negative mutant, CMA-1, to reduce the humic acid analog anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS), cross-feeding experiments conducted here showed that the substance released by MR-1 restores the growth of CMA-1 on several soluble electron acceptors. Various strains derived from MR-1 also release this substance; these include mutants lacking the OM cytochromes OmcA and OmcB and the OM protein MtrB. Even though strains lacking OmcB and MtrB cannot reduce Fe(III) or AQDS, they still release a substance that restores the ability of CMA-1 to use MK-dependent electron acceptors, including AQDS and Fe(III). Quinone analysis showed that this released substance restores MK synthesis in CMA-1. This ability to restore MK synthesis in CMA-1 explains the cross-feeding results and challenges the previous hypothesis that this substance represents a redox shuttle that facilitates metal respiration. 相似文献

The cytoplasmic membrane protein TonB couples the proton electrochemical potential of the cytoplasmic membrane to transport events at the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. The amino-terminal signal anchor of TonB and its interaction with the cytoplasmic membrane protein ExbB are essential to this process. The TonB signal anchor is predicted to form an alpha-helix, with a conserved face comprised of residues Ser(16), His(20), Leu(27), and Ser(31). Deletion of either Ser(16) or His(20) or of individual intervening but not flanking residues rendered TonB inactive and unable to assume a proton motive force-dependent conformation. In vivo formaldehyde cross-linking experiments revealed that the ability of this subset of mutants to form a characteristic heterodimer with ExbB was greatly diminished. Replacement of residues 17-19 by three consecutive alanines produced a wild type TonB allele, indicating that the intervening residues (Val, Cys, and Ile) contributed only to spacing. These data indicated that the spatial relationship of Ser(16) to His(20) was essential to function and suggested that the motif HXXXS defines the minimal requirement for the coupling of TonB to the cytoplasmic membrane electrochemical gradient. Deletion of Trp(11) resulted in a TonB that remained active yet was unable to cross-link with ExbB. Because Trp(11) was demonstrably not involved in the actual cross-linking, these results suggest that the TonB/ExbB interaction detected by cross-linking occurred at a step in the energy transduction cycle distinct from the coupling of TonB to the electrochemical gradient. 相似文献
