Lysobacter enzymogenes, a robust bacterial warrior uses a “mobile-attack” antifungal strategy comprised of twitching motility powered by the type IV pilus and antifungal weapons. This strategy is controlled by a “busy” transcription factor Clp via multiple previously uncharacterized mechanisms, including binding with DNA in unique modes, interacting directly or responding to diverse small-molecule chemicals, as well as associating specifically with structurally-distinct proteins. Cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP) is a well-characterized group of global transcription factors in bacteria. They are known to regulate numerous cellular processes by binding DNA and/or cAMP (a ligand called bacterial second messenger) to control target gene expression. Gram-negative Lysobacter enzymogenes is a soilborne, plant-beneficial bacterium without flagella that can fight against filamentous fungi and oomycete. Driven by the type IV pilus (T4P) system, this bacterium moves to nearby pathogens and uses a “mobile-attack” antifungal strategy to kill them via heat-stable antifungal factor (HSAF) and abundant lyases. This strategy is controlled by a unique “busy” transcription factor Clp, which is a CRP-like protein that is inactivated by binding of c-di-GMP, another ubiquitous second messenger of bacteria. In this review, we summarize the current progress in how Clp initiates a “mobile-attack” strategy through a series of previously uncharacterized mechanisms, including binding to DNA in a unique pattern, directly interacting with or responding to various small molecules, and interacting specifically with proteins adopting distinct structure. Together, these characteristics highlight the multifunctional roles of Clp in L. enzymogenes, a powerful bacterial warrior against fungal pathogens.
