Outer membrane protein OmpU is related to iron balance in Vibrio alginolyticus.

Abstract:

:Outer membrane protein U (OmpU) is a major porin from Vibrio alginolyticus and has been considered a vaccine candidate against infection by V. alginolyticus. After pre-incubated with polyclonal antibody against rOmpU, V. alginolyticus showed a 78% decrease in extracellular iron level, suggesting that interruption of OmpU could increase intracellular iron level. The mRNA expression of ompU under iron-limited conditions was determined using real-time reverse transcriptase PCR. The mRNA level of ompU was downregulated to 0.27-, 0.036- and 0.019-fold after the addition of the iron chelator 2,2'-bipyridyl for 10, 30 and 60 min, respectively. In addition, the promoter of ompU contained a ferric uptake regulator (Fur) binding site, which revealed the potential regulation of ompU by Fur and iron. Fur from V. alginolyticus was purified and used for electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The result showed that in the absence of Fe2+, purified recombinant Fur could specifically bind to the promoter DNA of ompU, while in the presence of Fe2+, the binding of Fur and the promoter DNA was suppressed. Our study preliminarily explored the function of OmpU in iron balance in V. alginolyticus, and these findings were helpful in understanding iron metabolism in V. alginolyticus.
