Abstract:
:In Selenomonas ruminantium, a strictly anaerobic and gram-negative bacterium, the degradation of lysine/ornithine decarboxylase (LDC/ODC) by ATP-requiring protease(s) is accelerated by the binding of P22, which is a ribosomal protein of this strain. Amino acid sequence alignment of S. ruminantium P22 with the L10 ribosomal proteins of gram-positive and -negative bacteria showed that P22 has a 5-residue K101NKLD105 segment and an 11-residue G160VIRNAVYVLD170 segment, both of which are lacking in L10 in any other gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria reported. To elucidate whether the two segments are involved in P22 function, a series of mutant genes of P22 were constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. The proteins were isolated and assayed for their function with respect to S. ruminantium LDC/ODC and mouse ODC. The results indicated that the two segments of P22 are crucial for P22 binding to both enzymes and also accelerated degradation of both decarboxylases.
