Figure 1 Activation of the PmrA Regulon by Different Stimuli and Domain Structure of the Salmonella PmrB Protein (A) Model illustrating the stimuli known to activate the PmrA regulon, the proteins involved in sensing and transmitting these signals, and the targets of PmrA regulation. Transcription of PmrA-activated genes is promoted during growth in low magnesium via the PhoP/PhoQ system, during growth in high iron via the PmrA/PmrB system, and also (not shown in the figure) during growth in mild acid pH (Soncini and Groisman 1996) in a PhoP- and PmrB-independent manner. (B) Predicted topology of the PmrB protein from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Numbers correspond to the amino acid residues defining predicted periplasmic, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the PmrB protein. (C) Alignment of the amino acid sequences of the putative periplasmic domains of the PmrB proteins from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Yersinia pestis. Residues conserved among all four enteric species are boxed. ExxE sequence resembles the iron binding motif RExxE present in two eukaryotic iron binding proteins (Stearman et al. 1996; Trikha et al. 1995).

Figure 2 Ferric Iron Promotes Transcription of PmrA-Regulated Genes in a PhoP/PhoQ-Independent PmrA/PmrB-Dependent Manner (A) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by wild-type pmrA and pmrB strains grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7, 10 mM MgCl2 and the indicated concentrations of FeSO4. (B) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by a phoQ mutant strain grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7 with 10 μM MgCl2 and 100 μM FeSO4 or 100 μM FeCl3 with or without 300 μM deferoxamine mesylate or 2,2′-dipyridyl. (C) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) expressed by bacteria grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7, 10 μM MgCl2 with or without 100 μM FeSO4 were determined in phoQ strains harboring lac transcriptional fusions to the PhoP-activated PmrA-dependent genes pmrC, pbgP and ugd and the PhoP-activated PmrA-independent genes mgtA and pcgL. (D) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) expressed by bacteria harboring a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion in strains carrying either wild-type or null alleles of the pmrA, pmrB, phoP or phoQ genes. Bacteria were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7 with 10 μM or 10 mM MgCl2, with or without 100 μM FeSO4 as indicated in the Figure. Data correspond to mean values of three independent experiments done in duplicate. Error bars correspond to the standard deviations (and are only shown if larger than the resolution of the figure).

Figure 3 The Periplasmic Domain of the PmrB Protein Is Necessary for the Iron Activation of the PmrA-Regulated Gene pbgP (A) The PmrB protein harbors a periplasmic domain. Spheroplasts were prepared from E. coli cells expressing either the full-length PmrB protein (PmrB) or the cytoplasmic domain of the PmrB protein (PmrBc) by lysozyme/EDTA incubations and then treated with trypsin as described (García Véscovi et al. 1996). Proteins were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting using polyclonal antibodies raised against the cytoplasmic domain of PmrB. Numbers adjacent to the immunoblot indicate the calculated sizes of PmrB-derived fragments. (B) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by a pmrB phoQ mutant harboring no plasmid, the plasmid vector pUH21 lacIq, plasmid pUH pmrAB expressing the wild-type pmrAB genes, or plasmid pUH pmrAB(Δ36–62) expressing the wild-type PmrA protein and a PmrB protein deleted for 26 of its 31 residues. Bacteria were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7 10 μM MgCl2 with 100 μM FeSO4. (C) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by a pmrB mutant harboring no plasmid, the plasmid vector pUH21 lacIq, plasmid pUH pmrAB expressing the wild-type pmrAB genes, or plasmid pUH pmrAB(Δ36–62) expressing the wild-type PmrA protein and a PmrB protein deleted for 26 of its 31 residues. Bacteria were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7, 10 μM MgCl2. Data correspond to mean values of three independent experiments done in duplicate. Error bars correspond to the standard deviations (and are only shown if larger than the resolution of the figure). Cell 2000 103, 113-125DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00092-1)

Figure 4 Iron Binds to the Periplasmic Domain of PmrB E. coli cells harboring a plasmid expressing either the wild-type pmrAB genes (pUH pmrAB) (A) or the pmrAB genes in which the periplasmic region of PmrB is deleted (pUH pmrAB(Δ36–62)) (B) were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7, 10 μM MgCl2 and 1 mM IPTG for 4 hr at 37°C. After washing, bacteria were incubated with the indicated concentrations of FeSO4 and 20 mM DTT or no DTT, and incubated for 3 hr at room temperature. Protein samples were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting using antibodies raised against the cytoplasmic domain of the PmrB protein. Values adjacent to the immunoblot indicate the position of the molecular mass markers. Cell 2000 103, 113-125DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00092-1)

Underlined residues are required for iron-promoted transcriptional activation of the pbgP gene. (B) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by a pmrB phoQ mutant harboring no plasmid, the plasmid vector pUH21 lacIq, plasmid pUH pmrAB expressing the wild-type pmrAB genes or plasmids in which the periplasmic glutamates were mutated to alanine (pUH pmrAB(E36A), pUH pmrAB(E39A), pUH pmrAB(E61A), and pUH pmrAB(E64A)) or the periplasmic serine mutated to glycine (pUH pmrAB(S37G)). Bacteria were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7 10 μM MgCl2 with 100 μM FeSO4. (C) β-galactosidase activity (Miller units) from a pbgP-lac transcriptional fusion expressed by a pmrB mutant harboring no plasmid, the plasmid vector pUH21 lacIq, plasmid pUH pmrAB expressing the wild-type pmrAB genes, or plasmids in which the periplasmic glutamates were mutated to alanine (pUH pmrAB(E36A), pUH pmrAB(E39A), pUH pmrAB(E61A), and pUH pmrAB(E64A)) or the periplasmic serine mutated to glycine (pUH pmrAB(S37G)). Bacteria were grown in N-minimal medium pH 7.7 10 μM MgCl2. Data correspond to mean values of three independent experiments done in duplicate.

Figure 6 Growth in the Presence of Iron Renders phoP Salmonella Resistant to Polymyxin B Wild-type (14028s), phoP (MS7953s) or pmrA (EG7139) cells were grown to logarithmic phase in N-minimal medium pH 5.8, 10 μM MgCl2 with (B) or without 100 μM FeSO4 (A). Polymyxin B was added to washed bacteria at a final concentration of 2.5 μg/ml and incubated for 1 hr at 37°C. Samples were diluted in phosphate buffered saline and plated on LB-agar plates to assess bacterial viability. Survival values are relative to the original inoculum. Note logarithmic scale of the y axis. Data correspond to mean values of three independent experiments performed in duplicate. Error bars correspond to standard deviation (and are only shown if bigger than the resolution of the figure). Cell 2000 103, 113-125DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00092-1)

Figure 7 A Functional PmrA/PmrB system Is Required for Growth/Survival in the Presence of Iron (A) Optical densities (OD600) of wild-type and pmrA Salmonella were determined at different times following inoculation in N-minimal medium pH 5.8 10 μM MgCl2 with or without 100 μM FeSO4. The experiment was done in triplicate. The error bars represent the standard deviations and are indicated only if larger than the symbols (B). Strains harboring mutations in the pmrA or pmrB genes, or in the PmrA-regulated genes pbgE2 and pbgE3 are defective for growth on N-minimal media pH 5.8 10 μM MgCl2 agarose plates containing 100 μM FeSO4, whereas strains with mutations in the PmrA-regulated genes pmrC, ugd, pmrG, pbgP1, pbgP2, pbgP3, pbgP4, or pbgE1 grew as well as the wild-type strain. All strains grew in identical fashion in media lacking 100 μM FeSO4. Plates were incubated at 37°C for 36 hr before photography (C). Wild-type (14028s) or pmrA (EG7139) cells were grown to logarithmic phase in N-minimal medium pH 5.8, 10 μM MgCl2, washed and resuspended in N-minimal medium pH 5.8, 10 μM MgCl2. FeSO4 was added to washed bacteria at the indicated final concentrations, and bacteria were incubated at 37°C for up to 2 hr (presented in the figure). Samples were diluted in phosphate buffered saline and plated on LB-agar plates to assess bacterial viability. Survival values are relative to the bacteria not exposed to iron. Note logarithmic scale of the y axis. Data correspond to mean values of three independent experiments performed in duplicate. Error bars correspond to standard deviation (and are only shown if bigger than the resolution of the figure). Cell 2000 103, 113-125DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)00092-1)
