Unit</h1> <p><strong>Associate Professor Fadel Samatey</strong></p> <h3>Abstract</h3> <p style="text-align: justify;">Motility is a very important function in the living world. For this purpose, organisms such as bacteria have developed one of the most incredible molecular machines: the flagellar system. Bacteria such as <em>Escherichia coli </em>and <em>Salmonella typhimurium </em>swim by rotating long helical filaments called the flagellum. The flagellum is a complex structure made by the association of many different proteins. It can be divided into three parts: 1) the filament: a long tubular structure that works as a helical propeller, 2) the hook: a short, highly flexible tubular segment that works as a universal joint, 3) the basal body: a rotary motor embedded in the cell membrane and the protein export apparatus attached. The basal body is made of about 20 different proteins while the hook and the filament are made of single proteins, the hook protein (FlgE) and flagellin (FliC), respectively. The hook and the filament are joined together by two junction proteins, the hook associated protein 1 (HAP1) and 3 (HAP3). The filament is capped by the hook associated protein 2 (HAP2), which is essential for the filament polymerization. The flagellar motor can be divided into two major components: the stator and the rotor. The stator is made of multiple copies of two integral membrane proteins, MotA and MotB, and works as a proton channel. The rotor consists of multiple copies of proteins FliF and FliG, and the C ring is attached on its cytoplasmic side to regulate the rotational direction. It is thought that the torque is generated by the interactions between FliG and the MotA/B complex To understand the mechanisms of how this nano-machine works, the complete structural information of the flagellum at atomic level is necessary. All the bacterial flagellar axial proteins are exported to its growing end through a 2 -3 nm channel located in its centre. The protein export system attached at the cytoplasmic side of the basal body is called the type III export apparatus. To date there have been little high-resolution work done on the T3SS. In the case of the bacterial flagellum, the export system is made by six membrane proteins: FlhA, FlhB, FliO, FliP, FliQ, FliR, and three cytoplasmic proteins: FliI, FliH and FliJ.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The T3SS of the bacterial flagellum is homologous to the one found in Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, which secretes virulence factors to host cells for invasion that triggers diseases. The type III secretion systems are present in both the animal and plant pathogenic bacteria and they share a number of core structural components that are highly conserved. The needle complex of pathogenic bacteria has many similarities with the bacterial flagella system.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">In the research unit, we work to have a better understanding on the bacterial flagellum and on the T3SS. Bacterial motility and the function of the T3SS are linked to pathogenicity. In a time of antibiotic resistant bugs, understanding these systems at the fundamental level will help in a better design of therapeutic drugs.</p> <h3 style="text-align: justify;">1.

Activities and Findings</h3> <p style="text-align: justify; ">Within the trans-membrane trafficking unit we investigate how proteins are exported across the bacterial cell membrane. Our focus is the bacterial flagellum, which is used for motility and is the most complicated structure within the cell. The flagellum is related to the Type III secretion injectisomes produced by many types of pathogenic bacteria. The flagellum and the injectisomes harness the energy from the proton-motive force across the cell membrane to export proteins. The mechanism of function of the flagellum and injectisomes is an important area of biological research.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; ">We recently investigated the connection between the activity of the respiratory chain, which builds the proton-motive force, and the assembly of the flagellum (1). The primary mobile electron-carrier in the aerobic respiratory chain of <em>Salmonella</em> is ubiquinone. Demethylmenaquinone and menaquinone are alternative electron-carriers involved in anaerobic respiration. Ubiquinone biosynthesis was disrupted in strains bearing deletions of the <em>ubiA</em> or <em>ubiE</em> genes. In soft tryptone agar both mutant strains swam poorly. However, the <em>ubiA</em> deletion mutant strain produced suppressor mutant strains with somewhat rescued motility and growth. Six independent suppressor mutants were purified and comparative genome sequence analysis revealed that they each bore a single new missense mutation, which localised to genes for subunits of respiratory complex I (NADH:quinone oxidoreductase-1). Four mutants bore an identical <em>nuoG</em>(<em>Q297K</em>) mutation, one mutant bore a <em>nuoM</em>(<em>A254S</em>) mutation and one mutant bore a <em>nuoN</em>(<em>A444E</em>) mutation. The NuoG subunit is part of the hydrophilic domain of respiratory complex I, and the NuoM and NuoN subunits are part of the hydrophobic membrane-embedded domain.</p> <p style="text-align: justify; ">Respiration was rescued and the suppressed mutant strains grew better in Luria-Bertani broth medium and could use L-malate as a sole carbon source. The quinone pool of the cytoplasmic membrane was characterised by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Wild-type cells made ubiquinone and menaquinone. Strains with a <em>ubiA</em> deletion mutation made demethylmenaquinone and menaquinone and the <em>ubiE</em> deletion mutant strain made demethylmenaquinone and 2-octaprenyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone; the total quinone pool was reduced. Immunoblotting found increased respiratory complex I levels for ubiquinone-biosynthesis mutant strains and enzyme assays measured electron transfer from NADH to demethylmenaquinone or menaquinone. Thus, under certain growth conditions the suppressor mutations improve electron flow activity of respiratory complex I for cells bearing a <em>ubiA</em> deletion mutation, which in turn increased flagellar biogenesis and motility. This result showed that activity of respiratory complex I is important for assembly of the bacterial flagellum.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"> </p> <h3>4.
