Isolation and Sequencing of Rhizobium Leguminosarum Bv. Trifolii PssN, PssO and PssP Genes Encoding the Proteins Involved in Polymerization and Translocation of Exopolysaccharide
Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii produces an acidic exopolysaccharide (EPS) that plays an important role in symbiotic interaction with clover plants. The sequence of 6.0-kb DNA fragment located upstream of the previously described prsDEorf3 and pssCDE genes involved in exopolysaccharide biosynthesis revealed three new genes designated pssN, pssO and pssP. The predicted protein product of pssP gene shares a significant homology to members of the membrane-peri-plasmic auxiliary (MPA1) family, that are involved in polymerization of the repeating subunits of EPS. The putative pssN protein product is highly homologous to the family of the outer membrane auxiliary (OMA) proteins engaged in translocation of polysaccharides in bacteria. The PssO did not reveal homology to the known bacterial proteins, but showed characteristic features of outer membrane proteins, and with PssN and PssP, it might be a part of the system involved in polymerization and translocation of EPS across the bacterial membranes.
