AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary Material

Porins in the outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria play two main functions: passage of various extracellular molecules and maintenance of membrane integrity. OmpC, a non-specific porin, is involved in both functions; however, the exact mechanism of maintenance of membrane integrity remains unknown. In this study, we found that inhibiting cardiolipin biosynthesis partially restored the growth defect of the ompC mutant under envelope stress. Among the three enzymes involved in cardiolipin biosynthesis, ClsABC, this effect is primarily associated with ClsA. Notably, the deletion of ClsA also suppressed the similar phenotypes of an Escherichia coli mutant lacking YhdP, a transmembrane protein involved in phospholipid transport from the inner membrane to the OM. Collectively, these results imply that OmpC may contribute to membrane integrity, partially through mechanisms linked to transport or biosynthesis of phospholipids such as cardiolipin.

AbstractAbstract PDF
The inner membrane protein lipopolysaccharide assembly protein B (LapB) is an adaptor protein that activates the proteolysis of LpxC by an essential inner membrane metalloprotease, FtsH, leading to a decrease in the level of lipopolysaccharide in the membrane. In this study, we revealed the mechanism by which the essential inner membrane protein YejM regulates LapB and analyzed the role of the transmembrane domain of LapB in Escherichia coli. The transmembrane domain of YejM genetically and physically interacted with LapB and inhibited its function, which led to the accumulation of LpxC. The transmembrane domain of LapB was indispensable for both its physical interaction with YejM and its regulation of LpxC proteolysis. Notably, we found that the lapB mutant exhibited strong cold sensitivity and this phenotype was not associated with increased accumulation of LpxC. The transmembrane domain of LapB was also required for its role in adaptation to cold stress. Taken together, these
results
showed that LapB plays an important role in both the regulation of LpxC level, which is controlled by its interaction with the transmembrane domain of YejM, and adaptation to cold stress, which is independent of LpxC.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Although bacteria have diverse membrane proteins, the function of many of them remains unknown or uncertain even in Escherichia coli. In this study, to investigate the function of hypothetical membrane proteins, genome-wide analysis of phenotypes of hypothetical membrane proteins was performed under various envelope stresses. Several genes responsible for adaptation to envelope stresses were identified. Among them, deletion of YhcB, a conserved inner membrane protein of unknown function, caused high sensitivities to various envelope stresses and increased membrane permeability, and caused growth defect under normal growth conditions. Furthermore, yhcB deletion resulted in morphological aberration, such as branched shape, and cell division defects, such as filamentous growth and the generation of chromosome- less cells. The analysis of antibiotic susceptibility showed that the yhcB mutant was highly susceptible to various anti-folate antibiotics. Notably, all phenotypes of the yhcB mutant were completely or significantly restored by YhcB without the transmembrane domain, indicating that the localization of YhcB on the inner membrane is dispensable for its function. Taken together, our results demonstrate that YhcB is involved in cell morphology and cell division in a membrane localization-independent manner.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Phosphorylation is the most important modification for protein regulation; it controls many signal transduction pathways in all organisms. While several tools to detect phosphorylated proteins have been developed to study a variety of basic cellular processes involving protein phosphorylation, these methods have several limitations. Many proteins exhibit a phosphorylation-dependent electrophoretic mobility shift (PDEMS) in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and the molecular mechanism responsible for this phenomenon has been elucidated recently. The method for detecting phosphorylated proteins can be simplified by the application of the PDEMS. Herein, we present a novel simple method to detect protein phosphorylation, which is based on the construction of a variant protein displaying a PDEMS. The PDEMS of proteins is caused by the distribution of negatively charged amino acids around the phosphorylation site, i.e. an electrophoretic mobility shift (EMS)-related motif (ΘX1-3ΘX1-3Θ, where Θ corresponds to an acidic or phosphorylated amino acid and X represents any amino acid). The EMS-related motif can be constructed by the introduction of a negative charge by phosphorylation; it results in the decreased binding of SDS to the proteins, consequently inducing the retardation of the mobility of the protein during SDS-PAGE. Based on these molecular analyses of the PDEMS, a protein with the EMSrelated motif is designed and used to determine the in vivo phosphorylation state of the protein. This method may be used as a general strategy to easily measure the ratio of protein phosphorylation in cells.

AbstractAbstract PDF
The sco0765 gene was annotated as a glycosyl hydrolase family 5 endoglucanase from the genomic sequence of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and consisted of 2,241 bp encoding a polypeptide of 747 amino acids (molecular weight of 80.5 kDa) with a 29-amino acid signal peptide for secretion. The SCO0765 recombinant protein was heterogeneously overexpressed in Streptomyces lividans TK24 under the control of a strong ermE* promoter. The purified SCO0765 protein showed the expected molecular weight of the mature form (718 aa, 77.6 kDa) on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl amide gel electrophoresis. SCO0765 showed high activity toward β-glucan and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and negligible activity to Avicel, xylan, and xyloglucan. The SCO0765 cellulase had a maximum activity at pH 6.0 and 40°C toward CMC and at pH 9.0 and 50–60°C toward β-glucan. Thin layer chromatography of the hydrolyzed products of CMC and β-glucan by SCO0765 gave cellotriose as the major product and cellotetraose, cellopentaose, and longer oligosaccharides as the minor products. These results clearly demonstrate that SCO0765 is an endo-β-1,4-cellulase, hydrolyzing the β-1,4 glycosidic bond of cellulose into cellotriose.
