By using a lacZ operon fusion genomic library of the Escherichia coli O157:H7 Sakai, we identified phosphatestarvation-inducible (psi) promoters located upstream of the yibD and ytfK genes. They have been previously proposed to belong to the phosphate regulon (pho regulon) by Beak and Lee (2006), based on the DNA array and in vivo transcriptional experiments. However, the direct interaction of these promoters with the activator protein of the pho regulon, PhoB, has not been determined. We determined the binding regions of PhoB in these promoter regions by DNase I footprinting. Both regions contained two pho boxes similar to the consensus sequence for PhoB binding.

The DcuS-R two-component system of Escherichia coli senses C4-dicarboxylates of the medium and regulates expression of the genes related to utilization of them. It is known that phospho-DcuR induces expression of genes such as the dcuB-fumB operon, the frdABCD operon, and the dctA gene. We analyzed promoters of the dcuS-R operon to elucidate the transcriptional regulation system. We found a novel internal promoter within the dcuS gene that is regulated by the transcriptional regulator, CRP-cAMP, in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

In Escherichia coli, at least 31 genes, which are involved in the roles related to the transport and assimilation of phosphate and phosphorus compounds, are induced by phosphate starvation. They constitute a single phosphate (pho) regulon, and are under the same physiological and genetic control (30, 36, 46). Proteins PhoB and PhoR, which are regulatory systems for the transcriptional regulation of the phogenes, belong to a large family of two-component regulatory systems that respond to a variety of environmental stimuli in bacteria (23, 24, 33, 39). PhoB is the transcriptional activator, which binds to the promoters of the pho genes (21, 22). PhoR is a transmembrane protein that modulates the activity of PhoB by promoting specific phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of PhoB in response to the phosphate signal in the medium (19, 21, 37, 50). The phosphorylation of PhoB protein occurs concurrently with the acquisition of the ability to activate transcription from the pho promoters (Fig. 1). In the absence of the PhoR functions, PhoB is phosphorylated independently of the phosphate levels by PhoM, a PhoR like protein (2, 3, 26), which was renamed CreC by Wanner (45). In this article, we describe our recent studies on the mechanism of the transcriptional regulation of the pho regulon.
