Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Pseudomonas aeruginosa transcription of the enzyme eptAPa is regulated by zinc via the ColRS two-component system. The two-component system response regulator ColR activates eptAPa transcription. Transcription of eptAPa is induced by 2 mM ZnSO4 approximately 21fold additional information

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction deletion of colR and of eptA results in loss of Zn2+-induced phosphatidylethanolamine modification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lipid A. colR deletion mutant complementation restores Zn2+-dependent eptAPa transcription by more than fourfold Pseudomonas aeruginosa
physiological function Gram-negative bacteria survive harmful environmental stressors by modifying their outer membrane. Much of this protection is afforded upon remodeling of the lipid A region of the major surface molecule lipopolysaccharide. Addition of cationic substituents, such as 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (L-Ara4N) and phosphoethanolamine (pEtN) at the lipid A phosphate groups, is often induced in response to specific environmental flux stabilizing the outer membrane. ColR specifically induces pEtN addition to lipid A in lieu of L-Ara4N when Zn2+ is present Pseudomonas aeruginosa
