Iac gene expression in the indole-3-acetic acid-degrading soil bacterium Enterobacter soli LF7 


ABSTRACT: We show for soil bacterium Enterobacter soli LF7 (synonym Enterobacter asburiae LF7a) that possession of a iac (indole 3-acetic acid catabolic) gene cluster is causatively linked to the ability to utilize the plant hormone indole 3-acetic acid (IAA) as a carbon and energy source. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling by mRNA sequencing revealed that these iac genes chromosomally arranged as iacHABICDEFG and coding for the transformation of IAA to catechol, were the most highly induced (>29-fold) among the relatively few (<1%) differentially expressed genes in response to IAA. Also highly induced and immediately downstream of the iac cluster were genes for a Major Facilitator Superfamily protein (mfs) and enzymes of the β-ketoadipate pathway (pcaIJD-catBCA), which channels catechol into central metabolism. This entire iacHABICDEFG-mfs-pcaIJD-catBCA gene set was constitutively expressed in a iacR deletion mutant, confirming the role of iacR, annotated as coding for a MarR-type regulator and located upstream of iacH, as a repressor of iac gene expression. The research described here was funded from grants #2010-03544 and #2013-02075 awarded to JHJL by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI)
