Nature and Nurture

22.4K
Many human characteristics, like height, are shaped by both nature—in other words, by our genes—and by nurture, or our environment. For example, chronic stress during childhood inhibits the production of growth hormones and consequently reduces bone growth and height. Scientists estimate that 70-90% of variation in height is due to genetic differences among individuals, and 10-30% of variation in height is due to differences in the environments that individuals experience,...

Area of Science:

  • Microbiology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • The Pu promoter in Pseudomonas putida controls the TOL operon for m-xylene biodegradation.
  • Previous studies suggested a role for EIIANtr (PtsN) protein in sugar-mediated regulation of Pu activity.
  • The nitrogen-related phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTSNtr) is involved in this regulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To re-evaluate the role of EIIANtr in carbon source control of Pu promoter activity.
  • To investigate the influence of EIIANtr phosphorylation state on Pu activity.
  • To clarify the interplay between the TOL plasmid and host metabolism.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of Pu promoter activity under varying physiological conditions affecting PTS protein phosphorylation.
  • Utilizing recent transcriptomic data and knowledge of P. putida's PTS.
  • Examining EIIANtr's effect regardless of its phosphorylation state.

Main Results:

  • EIIANtr inhibits Pu activity irrespective of its phosphorylation state.
  • Inhibition is strongest during glucose growth (more phosphate-free EIIANtr).
  • Fructose growth partially relieves inhibition, correlating with PTS protein phosphorylation.

Conclusions:

  • EIIANtr acts as a repressor of the Pu promoter.
  • The phosphorylation state of EIIANtr modulates the degree of Pu repression.
  • These findings resolve previous inconsistencies and enhance understanding of TOL plasmid-host metabolic interactions.
