OmpW is positively regulated by iron via Fur, and negatively regulated by SoxS contribution to oxidative stress resistance in Escherichia coli.

Abstract:

:Iron plays a central role at the interface of pathogen and host. The ability to sequester iron from a host not only reduces host immune defenses but also promotes pathogen virulence, leading to the occurrence of infectious disease. Recently, outer membrane protein OmpW was shown to protect bacteria against harsh environmental conditions and to play a role in infectious disease. The expression of this versatile protein is controlled by iron, but the underlying mechanism of iron regulation has not been elucidated. In this study, the relation between OmpW expression and iron was investigated. Our results demonstrated that expression of OmpW is responsive to iron. Iron uptake analysis showed that an ompW mutant strain has a strong requirement for iron as compared to wild type and the ompW complemented strain. Moreover, ferric uptake regulation protein Fur, an iron binding transcriptional factor, was downregulated under iron limitation conditions and had a similar expression profile to OmpW in the presence or absence of iron. Based on these results, we suggest that iron regulates OmpW by binding to Fur. Furthermore, SoxS, a transcriptional factor involved in oxidative stress, was found to negatively regulate OmpW. We found that downregulating or knocking out OmpW results in bacterial resistance to oxidative stress. These findings provide new insight into the regulation of OmpW expression by iron, and may represent a new mechanism contributing to iron-mediated infectious disease.
