Comprehensive Proteomic Analysis of Nitrogen Starved Mycobacterium smegmatis Δpup Reveals the Impact of Pupylation on Nitrogen Stress Response

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium smegmatis is a soil bacterium exposed to continuously environmental changes of nitrogen availability. As member of Actinobacteria, it possesses an ubiquitin-like post-translational modification pathway called pupylation. The pathway starts when a small protein called Pup is attached to a lysine of a specific cellular target. Then the Pup-modified protein is degraded by the proteasome, as it was shown that Pup acts as degradation signal. Recent studies showed the role of pupylation in Mycobacterium smegmatis for survival under nitrogen starvation by supplying recycled amino acids. The present study is an investigation of the influence of Mycobacterium smegmatis Pup protein on the whole proteome in absence of nitrogen sources. Therefore a pup deletion mutant was generated. Applying stable isotope dimethyl labelling, low impact of the pupylation on proteome was revealed immediately after exposure to growth medium lacking nitrogen. In contrast, post 24 h of nitrogen starvation, Msm pup deletion strain showed several proteins with significant changes in abundance. Noteworthy, key proteins involved in nitrogen assimilation were significantly affected in Msm Δpup. Furthermore, we label-free quantified pupylated proteins of nitrogen starved Msm for a more extensive understanding of pupylation role in surviving and overcoming the lack of nitrogen.

Pupylation is a bacterial ubiquitin-like protein modification pathway, which results in the attachment of the small protein Pup to specific lysine residues of cellular targets. Pup was shown to serve as a degradation signal, directing proteins toward the bacterial proteasome for turnover. Recently, it was hypothesized that pupylation and proteasomal protein degradation support the survival of Mycobacterium smegmatis (Msm) during nitrogen starvation by supplying recycled amino acids.

Project description:Total transcriptome analyses were carried out to investigate changes in transcript patterns in the Mycobacterium smegmatis wild type strain SMR5 due to nitrogen starvation and to expand the knowledge about the role of the two transcriptional regulators of nitrogen metabolism, namely GlnR and AmtR, in these processes. A first experiment revealed enhanced transcript levels of 284 genes and reduced transcripts of 231 genes in the wild type under nitrogen starvation compared to nitrogen surplus. When glnR deletion strain MH1 was compared to the wild type under nitrogen starvation, decreased transcript levels of 125 genes were detected, indicating that these are activated by GlnR due to nitrogen limitation. Comparing amtR deletion strain YL1 to the wild type under nitrogen starvation, enhanced transcript levels of 2 genes were found, indicating that they are repressed by AmtR under nitrogen surplus. A comparison of YL1 and wild type under surplus, as well as a comparison of YL1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation and of MH1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation were carried out as additional control experiments. It can be concluded that GlnR is the master regulator of nitrogen control in M. smegmatis and that AmtR fulfills only a small, subordinate role in the regulation of an operon. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30033: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of glnR deletion strain MH1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30231: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen starvation GSE30232: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30233: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30234: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and glnR deletion strain MH1 under nitrogen starvation GSE30235: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen surplus Refer to individual Series
