Modification of lipid A is essential for bacterial adaptation to its host. Salmonella Typhimurium LpxR potentially detoxifies lipid A by 3'-O-deacylation; however, the involvement of deacylation in its adaptation remains unclear. LpxR-dependent 3'-O-deacylation was observed in the stationary phase. When macrophages were infected with stationary phase bacteria, the intracellular growth of the lpxR-null strain was lower than that of the wild-type strain. Furthermore, the expression level of inducible nitric oxide synthase was higher in the cells infected with the lpxR-null strain than in the cells infected with the wild-type strain. These results indicate that lipid A 3'-O-deacylation is beneficial for intracellular growth. (C) 2009 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
