虽然原核生物转录的基本机制是保守的,但很明显,一些细菌需要额外的因子来进行有效的基因转录。CardD是一种RNA聚合酶(RNAP)结合蛋白,在许多细菌物种中保守,在分枝杆菌中是必需的。尽管CardD的重要性,其在转录复合物中的功能仍不清楚。我们已经产生了一组突变,分别针对三个独立的功能模块的卡:RNAP相互作用域,DNA结合域,和保守的色氨酸残基。我们已经解剖了每个功能模块在CardD活性中的作用,并建立了一个模型,其中每个模块都有助于稳定RNAP启动子复合物。我们的工作突出了在专性病原体结核分枝杆菌中对CardD的所有三个模块的要求,但在耻垢分枝杆菌中没有。我们还报告了CardD功能模块在抗氧化应激和色素沉着中的不同用途。这些研究提供了关于CardD参与转录调控的功能结构域的新信息,同时也提高了对M.结核
Although the basic mechanisms of prokaryotic transcription are conserved, it has become evident that some bacteria require additional factors to allow for efficient gene transcription. CarD is an RNA polymerase (RNAP) binding protein conserved in numerous bacterial species and essential in mycobacteria. Despite the importance of CarD, its function at transcription complexes remains unclear. We have generated a panel of mutations that individually target three independent functional modules of CarD: the RNAP interaction domain, the DNA binding domain, and a conserved tryptophan residue. We have dissected the roles of each functional module in CarD activity and built a model where each module contributes to stabilizing RNAP-promoter complexes. Our work highlights the requirement of all three modules of CarD in the obligate pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but not in Mycobacterium smegmatis. We also report divergent use of the CarD functional modules in resisting oxidative stress and pigmentation. These studies provide new information regarding the functional domains involved in transcriptional regulation by CarD while also improving understanding of the physiology of M. tuberculosis.
