摘要

In many bacteria, LuxS functions as a quorum-sensing molecule synthase. However, it also has a second, more central metabolic function in the activated methyl cycle (AMC), which generates the S-adenosylmethionine required by methyltransferases and recycles the product via methionine. Helicobacter pylori lacks an enzyme catalyzing homocysteine-to-methionine conversion, rendering the AMC incomplete and thus making any metabolic role of H. pylori LuxS (LuxSHp) unclear. Interestingly, luxSHp is located next to genes annotated as cysKHp and metBHp, involved in other bacteria in cysteine and methionine metabolism. We showed that isogenic strains carrying mutations in luxSHp, cysKHp, and metBHp could not grow without added cysteine (whereas the wild type could), suggesting roles in cysteine synthesis. Growth of the ΔluxSHp mutant was restored by homocysteine or cystathionine and growth of the ΔcysKHp mutant by cystathionine only. The ΔmetBHp mutant had an absolute requirement for cysteine. Metabolite analyses showed that S-ribosylhomocysteine accumulated in the ΔluxSHp mutant, homocysteine in the ΔcysKHp mutant, and cystathionine in the ΔmetBHp mutant. This suggests that S-ribosylhomocysteine is converted by LuxSHp to homocysteine (as in the classic AMC) and thence by CysKHp to cystathionine and by MetBHp to cysteine. In silico analysis suggested that cysK-metB-luxS were acquired by H. pylori from a Gram-positive source. We conclude that cysK-metB-luxS encode the capacity to generate cysteine from products of the incomplete AMC of H. pylori in a process of reverse transsulfuration. We recommend that the misnamed genes cysKHp and metBHp be renamed mccA (methionine-to-cysteine-conversion gene A) and mccB, respectively.
