RraA is a protein inhibitor of RNase E, which degrades and
processes numerous RNAs in Escherichia coli. Streptomyces
coelicolor also contains homologs of RNase E and RraA,
RNase ES and RraAS1/RraAS2, respectively. Here, we report
that, unlike other RraA homologs, RraAS1 directly interacts
with the catalytic domain of RNase ES to exert its inhibitory
effect. We further show that rraAS1 gene deletion in S. coelicolor
results in a higher growth rate and increased production
of actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin, compared with
the wild-type strain, suggesting that RraAS1-mediated regulation
of RNase ES activity contributes to modulating the
cellular physiology of S. coelicolor.

Abstract

RraA is a protein inhibitor of RNase E (Rne), which catalyzes
the endoribonucleolytic cleavage of a large proportion
of RNAs in Escherichia coli. The antibiotic‐producing bacterium
Streptomyces coelicolor also contains homologs of
RNase E and RraA, designated as RNase ES (Rns), RraAS1,
and RraAS2, respectively. Here, we report that RraAS2 requires
both scaffold domains of RNase ES for high-affinity
binding and inhibitory action on the ribonucleolytic activity.
Analyses of the steady-state level of RNase E substrates indicated
that coexpression of RraAS2 in E. coli cells overproducing
Rns effectively inhibits the ribonucleolytic activity of
full-length RNase ES, but its inhibitory effects were moderate
or undetectable on other truncated forms of Rns, in which the
N- or/and C-terminal scaffold domain was deleted. In addition,
RraAS2 more efficiently inhibited the in vitro ribonucleolytic
activity of RNase ES than that of a truncated form
containing the catalytic domain only. Coimmunoprecipitation
and in vivo cross-linking experiments further showed
necessity of both scaffold domains of RNase ES for high-affinity
binding of RraAS2 to the enzyme, resulting in decreased
RNA-binding capacity of RNase ES. Our results indicate that
RraAS2 is a protein inhibitor of RNase ES and provide clues
to how this inhibitor affects the ribonucleolytic activity of
RNase ES.

TolC and its homologous family of proteins are outer membrane factors that are essential for exporting small molecules and toxins across the outer membrane in Gram-negative bacteria. Two open reading frames in the Vibrio vulnificus genome that encode proteins homologous to Escherichia coli TolC, designated TolCV1 and TolCV2, have 51.3% and 29.6% amino acid identity to TolC, respectively. In this study, we show that TolCV1 and TolCV2 functionally and physically interacted with the membrane fusion protein, MacA, a component of the macrolide-specific MacAB-TolC pump of E. coli. We further show that the conserved residues located at the aperture tip region of the α-hairpin of TolCV1 and TolCV2 played an essential role in the formation of the functional MacAB-TolC pump using site-directed mutational analyses. Our findings suggest that these outer membrane factors have
conserved tip-to-tip interaction with the MacA membrane fusion protein for action of the drug efflux pump in Gramnegative bacteria.
