Abstrakt: Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA2196 is a TetR family transcriptional repressor. In this study, the deletion of the PA2196 gene caused increased expression of the downstream gene curA (PA2197), which encodes for a NADPH-dependent curcumin/dihydrocurcumin reductase. The PA2196 gene was then identified as curR, and a DNA footprinting assay showed that CurR directly bound to the curA promoter at an imperfect 15-bp inverted repeat, 5'-TAGTTGA-C-TGGTCTA-3'. A curA promoter-lacZ fusion assay and site-directed mutagenesis further demonstrated that the identified CurR binding site plays a crucial role in curA repression by CurR. curA transcription was inducible by sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) but not by hydrogen peroxide, organic hydroperoxide, or curcumin. The oxidation and alkylation of CurR by NaOCl and NEM, respectively, resulted in the inactivation of its DNA-binding activity, which induced curA expression. Under the tested conditions, the deletion of either curR or curA did not affect the survival of P. aeruginosa under NaOCl stress in the absence or presence of curcumin.
