• W4220736119 abstract "The Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome harbors nine toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems that are members of the mazEF family, unlike other prokaryotes, which have only one or two. Although the overall tertiary folds of MazF toxins are predicted to be similar, it is unclear how they recognize structurally different RNAs and antitoxins with divergent sequence specificity. Here, we have expressed and purified the individual components and complex of the MazEF6 TA system from M. tuberculosis. Size exclusion chromatography-multiangle light scattering (SEC-MALS) was performed to determine the oligomerization status of the toxin, antitoxin, and the complex in different stoichiometric ratios. The relative stabilities of the proteins were determined by nano-differential scanning fluorimetry (nano-DSF). Microscale thermophoresis (MST) and yeast surface display (YSD) were performed to measure the relative affinities between the cognate toxin-antitoxin partners. The interaction between MazEF6 complexes and cognate promoter DNA was also studied using MST. Analysis of paired-end RNA sequencing data revealed that the overexpression of MazF6 resulted in differential expression of 323 transcripts in M. tuberculosis. Network analysis was performed to identify the nodes from the top-response network. The analysis of mRNA protection ratios resulted in identification of putative MazF6 cleavage site in its native host, M. tuberculosis. IMPORTANCE M. tuberculosis harbors a large number of type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems, the exact roles for most of which are unclear. Prior studies have reported that overexpression of several of these type II toxins inhibits bacterial growth and contributes to the formation of drug-tolerant populations in vitro. To obtain insights into M. tuberculosis MazEF6 type II TA system function, we determined stability, oligomeric states, and binding affinities of cognate partners with each other and with their promoter operator DNA. Using RNA-seq data obtained from M. tuberculosis overexpression strains, we have identified putative MazF6 cleavage sites and targets in its native, cellular context." @default.
