摘要

In enteropathogenic and enterohemorraghic Escherichia coli (EPEC and EHEC), two members of the SlyA family of transcriptional regulators have been identified as SlyA. Western blot analysis of the wild type and the corresponding hosA and slyA deletion mutants indicated that SlyA and HosA are distinct proteins whose expression is not interdependent. Of 27 different E. coli strains (EPEC, EHEC, enteroinvasive, enteroaggregative, uropathogenic, and commensal) examined, 14 were positive for both genes and proteins. To investigate hosA expression, a hosA::luxCDABE reporter gene fusion was constructed. hosA expression was significantly reduced in the hosA but not the slyA mutant and was influenced by temperature, salt, and pH. In contrast to SlyA, HosA did not activate the cryptic E. coli K-12 hemolysin ClyA. Mutation of hosA did not influence type III secretion, the regulation of the LEE1 and LEE4 operons, or the ability of E2348/69 to form attaching-and-effacing lesions on intestinal epithelial cells. HosA is, however, involved in the temperature-dependent positive control of motility on swim plates and regulates fliC expression and FliC protein levels. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays, purified HosA protein bound specifically to the fliC promoter, indicating that HosA directly modulates flagellin expression. While direct examination of flagellar structure and the motile behavior of individual hosA cells grown in broth culture at 30°C did not reveal any obvious differences, hosA mutants, unlike the wild type, clumped together, forming nonmotile aggregates which could account for the markedly reduced motility of the hosA mutant on swim plates at 30°C. We conclude that SlyA and HosA are independent transcriptional regulators that respond to different physicochemical cues to facilitate the environmental adaptation of E. coli.
