Popis: | Bordetella pertussis controls the expression of its virulence regulon through the two-component system BvgAS. BvgS is a prototype for a family of multidomain sensor kinases. In BvgS, helical linkers connect periplasmic Venus flytrap (VFT) perception domains to a cytoplasmic Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) domain and the PAS domain to the dimerization/histidine phosphotransfer (DHp) domain of the kinase. The two linkers can adopt coiled-coil structures but cannot do so simultaneously. The first linker forms a coiled coil in the kinase mode and the second in the phosphatase mode, with the other linker in both cases showing an increase in dynamic behavior. The intervening PAS domain changes its quaternary structure between the two modes. In BvgS homologues without a PAS domain, a helical “X” linker directly connects the VFT and DHp domains. Here, we used BvgS as a platform to characterize regulation in members of the PAS-less subfamily. BvgS chimeras of homologues with natural X linkers displayed various regulation phenotypes. We identified two distinct coiled-coil registers in the N- and C-terminal portions of the X linkers. Stable coil formation in the C-terminal moiety determines the phosphatase mode, similarly to BvgS; in contrast, coil formation in the N-terminal moiety along the other register leads to the kinase mode. Thus, antagonism between two registers in the VFT-DHp linker forms the basis for activity regulation in the absence of the PAS domain. The N and C moieties of the X linker play roles similar to those played by the two independent linkers in sensor kinases with a PAS domain, providing a unified mechanism of regulation for the entire family. IMPORTANCE The whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis uses the BvgAS sensory transduction two-component system to regulate production of its virulence factors. BvgS serves as a model for a large family of multidomain bacterial sensor kinases. B. pertussis is virulent when BvgS functions as a kinase and avirulent when it switches to phosphatase activity in response to modulating signals. Understanding the molecular regulation of those proteins might lead to new antibacterial strategies. Here, we show that the linker regions between the perception and the enzymatic domains shift between distinct states of conformation in an alternating manner in response to signals and that their antagonistic changes control sensor kinase activity. These linker regions and mechanistic principles appear to be conserved among BvgS homologues, irrespective of the presence or absence of an intervening domain between the perception and the enzymatic domains. This work has thus uncovered general molecular mechanisms that regulate activity of sensor kinases in the BvgS family. |
