Interaction of Copper Toxicity and Oxidative Stress in Campylobacter jejuni.

Abstract:

:Copper is both a required micronutrient and a source of toxicity in most organisms, including Campylobacter jejuni Two proteins expressed in C. jejuni (termed CopA and CueO) have been shown to be a copper transporter and multicopper oxidase, respectively. We have isolated strains with mutations in these genes, and here we report that they were more susceptible to both the addition of copper in the growth media and to induced oxidative stress. Both mutant strains were defective in colonization of an avian host, and copper in the feed exacerbated the colonization deficiency. Overexpression of a cytoplasmic peptide derived from the normally periplasmic copper-binding region of CueO also caused copper intolerance compared to nonexpressing strains or strains expressing the non-copper-binding versions of the peptide. Taken together, the results indicate that copper toxicity in C. jejuni is due to a failure to effectively sequester cytoplasmic copper, resulting in an increase in copper-mediated oxidative damage.IMPORTANCE Copper is a required micronutrient for most aerobic organisms, but it is universally toxic at elevated levels. These organisms use homeostatic mechanisms that allow for cells to acquire enough of the element to sustain metabolic requirements while ensuring that lethal levels cannot build up in the cell. Campylobacter jejuni is an important foodborne pathogen that typically makes its way into the food chain through contaminated poultry. C. jejuni has a metabolic requirement for copper and encodes a copper detoxification system. In the course of studying this system, we have learned that it is important for avian colonization. We have also gained insight into how copper exerts its toxic effects in C. jejuni by promoting oxidative stress.
