Transcriptional Study of the RsmZ-sRNAs and Their Relationship to the Biosynthesis of Alginate and Alkylresorcinols in Azotobacter vinelandii.

Abstract:

:The GacS/A system in Azotobacter vinelandii regulates alginate and alkylresorcinols production through RsmZ1, a small regulatory RNA (sRNA) that releases the translational repression of the algD and arpR mRNAs caused by the RsmA protein. In the Pseudomonadaceae family, the Rsm-sRNAs are grouped into three families: RsmX, RmsY and RsmZ. Besides RsmZ1, A. vinelandii has six other isoforms belonging to the RsmZ family and another one to the RsmY. Environmental signals controlling rsmsRNAs genes in A. vinelandii are unknown. In this work, we present a transcriptional study of the A. vinelandii rsmZ1-7-sRNAs genes, whose transcriptional profiles showed a differential expression pattern, but all of them exhibited their maximal expression at the stationary growth phase. Furthermore, we found that succinate promoted higher expression levels of all the rsmZ1-7 genes compared to glycolytic carbon sources. Single mutants of the rsmZ-sRNAs family were constructed and their impact on alginate production was assessed. We did not observe correlation between the alginate phenotype of each rsmZ-sRNA mutant and the expression level of the corresponding sRNA, which suggests the existence of additional factors affecting their impact on alginate production. Similar results were found in the regulation exerted by the RsmZ-sRNAs on alkylresorcinol synthesis.
