Proteins targeted for degradation by the Mycobacterium proteasome are post-translationally tagged with prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein (Pup), an intrinsically disordered protein of 64 residues. In a process termed “pupylation”, Pup is synthesized with a terminal glutamine, which is deamidated to glutamate by Dop (deamidase of Pup) prior to attachment to substrate lysines by PafA (proteasome accessory factor A). Importantly, PafA was previously shown to be essential to cause lethal infections by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in mice. In this study we show that Dop, like PafA, is required for the full virulence of Mtb. Additionally, we show that Dop is involved not only in the deamidation of Pup, but is also needed to maintain wild type steady state levels of pupylated proteins in Mtb. Finally, using structural models and site-directed mutagenesis our data suggest Dop and PafA are members of the glutamine synthetase fold family of proteins.
