PhoQ/PhoP is a central two-component system involved in magnesium homeostasis, pathogenicity, cell envelope composition, and acid resistance in several bacterial species. The small RNA GcvB is identified here as a novel direct regulator of the synthesis of PhoQ/PhoP in Escherichia coli, and this control relies on a novel pairing region of GcvB. After MicA, this is the second Hfq-dependent small RNA that represses expression of the phoPQ operon. Both MicA and GcvB bind phoPQ mRNA in vivo and in vitro around the translation initiation region of phoP. Binding of either small RNA is sufficient to inhibit ribosome binding and induce mRNA degradation. Surprisingly, however, MicA and GcvB have different effects on the levels of the PhoP protein and therefore on the expression of the PhoP regulon. These results highlight the complex connections between small RNAs and transcriptional regulation networks in bacteria. Regulation of bacterial gene expression participates in the ability of these microorganisms to quickly adapt to their environment. This regulation can occur at every level of gene expression. For instance, two-component systems are involved in transcriptional control, while small RNAs usually act at the post-transcriptional level. In this study, the pleiotropic small RNA GcvB is identified as the second small RNA regulator of the central PhoQ/PhoP two-component system, which highlights the connections between the different types of regulation.
