Fumarate and nitrate reduction regulatory protein (Fnr)—a global transcriptional regulator—can directly or indirectly regulate many genes in different metabolic pathways at the top of the bacterial transcription regulation network. The present study explored the regulatory mechanism of Fnr-mediated nitrite degradation in Lactobacillus plantarum WU14 through gene transcription and expression analysis of oxygen sensing and nir operon expression regulation by Fnr. The interaction and the mechanism of transcriptional regulation between Fnr and GlnR were also examined under nitrite stress. After Fnr and GlnR purification by glutathione S-transferase tags, they were successfully expressed in Escherichia coli by constructing an expression vector. The results of electrophoresis mobility shift assay and qRT-PCR indicated that Fnr specifically bound to the PglnR and Pnir promoters and regulated the expression of nitrite reductase (Nir) and GlnR. After 6–12 h of culture, the expressions of fnr and nir under anaerobic conditions were higher than under aerobic conditions; the expression of these two genes increased with sodium nitrite (NaNO2) addition during aerobic culture. Overall, the present study indicated that Fnr not only directly participated in the expression of Nir and GlnR but also indirectly regulated the expression of Nir through GlnR regulation.
