- W2125185327 abstract "ABSTRACT Homeostasis of Zn 2+ and Mn 2+ is important for the physiology and virulence of the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae . Here, transcriptome analysis was used to determine the response of S. pneumoniae D39 to a high concentration of Zn 2+ . Interestingly, virulence genes encoding the choline binding protein PcpA, the extracellular serine protease PrtA, and the Mn 2+ uptake system PsaBC(A) were strongly upregulated in the presence of Zn 2+ . Using random mutagenesis, a previously described Mn 2+ -responsive transcriptional repressor, PsaR, was found to mediate the observed Zn 2+ -dependent derepression. In addition, PsaR is also responsible for the Mn 2+ -dependent repression of these genes. Subsequently, we investigated how these opposite effects are mediated by the same regulator. In vitro binding of purified PsaR to the prtA , pcpA , and psaB promoters was stimulated by Mn 2+ , whereas Zn 2+ destroyed the interaction of PsaR with its target promoters. Mutational analysis of the pcpA promoter demonstrated the presence of a PsaR operator that mediates the transcriptional effects. In conclusion, PsaR is responsible for the counteracting effects of Mn 2+ and Zn 2+ on the expression of several virulence genes in S. pneumoniae , suggesting that the ratio of these metal ions exerts an important influence on pneumococcal pathogenesis." @default.
