Characterization of c-di-AMP signaling in the periodontal pathobiont, Treponema denticola.
Pathobionts associated with periodontitis, such as Treponema denticola, must possess numerous sensory transduction systems to adapt to the highly dynamic subgingival environment. To date, the signaling pathways utilized by T. denticola to rapidly sense and respond to environmental stimuli are mainly unknown. Bis-(3'-5') cyclic diadenosine monophosphate (c-di-AMP) is a nucleotide secondary messenger that regulates osmolyte transport, central metabolism, biofilm development, and pathogenicity in many bacteria but is uncharacterized in T. denticola. Here, we studied c-di-AMP signaling in T. denticola to understand how it contributes to T. denticola physiology. We demonstrated that T. denticola produces c-di-AMP and identified enzymes that function in the synthesis (TDE1909) and hydrolysis (TDE0027) of c-di-AMP. To investigate how c-di-AMP may impact T. denticola cellular processes, a screening assay was performed to identify putative c-di-AMP receptor proteins. This approach identified TDE0087, annotated as a potassium uptake protein, as the first T. denticola c-di-AMP binding protein. As potassium homeostasis is critical for maintaining turgor pressure, we demonstrated that T. denticola c-di-AMP concentrations are impacted by osmolarity, suggesting that c-di-AMP negatively regulates potassium uptake in hypoosmotic solutions. Collectively, this study demonstrates T. denticola utilizes c-di-AMP signaling, identifies c-di-AMP metabolism proteins, identifies putative receptor proteins, and correlates c-di-AMP signaling to osmoregulation.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Oral Microbiology publishes high quality research papers and reviews on fundamental or applied molecular studies of microorganisms of the oral cavity and respiratory tract, host-microbe interactions, cellular microbiology, molecular ecology, and immunological studies of oral and respiratory tract infections.
Papers describing work in virology, or in immunology unrelated to microbial colonization or infection, will not be acceptable. Studies of the prevalence of organisms or of antimicrobials agents also are not within the scope of the journal.
The journal does not publish Short Communications or Letters to the Editor.
Molecular Oral Microbiology is published bimonthly.
