How double-membraned Gram-negative bacteria overcome lipid peroxidation is virtually unknown. Bactericidal antibiotics and superoxide ion stress stimulate the transcription of the Burkholderia cenocepacia bcnA gene that encodes a secreted lipocalin. bcnA gene orthologs are conserved in bacteria and generally linked to a conserved upstream gene encoding a cytochrome b561 membrane protein (herein named lcoA, lipocalin-associated cytochrome oxidase gene). Mutants in bcnA, lcoA, and in a gene encoding a conserved cytoplasmic aldehyde reductase (peroxidative stress-associated aldehyde reductase gene, psrA) display enhanced membrane lipid peroxidation. Compared to wild type, the levels of the peroxidation biomarker malondialdehyde (MDA) increase in the mutants upon exposure to sublethal concentrations of the bactericidal antibiotics polymyxin B and norfloxacin. Microscopy with lipid peroxidation–sensitive fluorescent probes shows that lipid peroxyl radicals accumulate at the bacterial cell poles and septum and peroxidation is associated with a redistribution of anionic phospholipids and reduced antimicrobial resistance in the mutants. We conclude that BcnA, LcoA, and PsrA are components of an evolutionary conserved, hitherto unrecognized peroxidation detoxification system that protects the bacterial cell envelope from lipid peroxyl radicals. How do double-membraned Gram-negative bacteria overcome lipid peroxidation stress? This study shows that a periplasmic lipocalin, a membrane cytochrome b561, and a cytoplasmic aldehyde reductase are components of a novel evolutionarily conserved peroxidation detoxification system for lipid peroxyl radicals.
