The ATP/substrate stoichiometry of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter OpuA.
Patzlaff J.S., van der Heide T., Poolman B.

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transport proteins catalyze the translocation of substrates at the expense of hydrolysis of ATP, but the actual ATP/substrate stoichiometry is still controversial. In the osmoregulated ABC transporter (OpuA) from Lactococcus lactis, ATP hydrolysis and substrate translocation are tightly coupled, and the activity of right-side-in and inside-out reconstituted OpuA can be determined accurately. Although the ATP/substrate stoichiometry determined from the uptake of glycine betaine and intravesicular ATP hydrolysis tends to increase with decreasing average size of the liposomes, the data from inside-out reconstituted OpuA indicate that the mechanistic stoichiometry is 2. Moreover, the two orientations of OpuA in proteoliposomes allowed possible contributions from substrate (glycine betaine) inhibition on the trans-side of the membrane and inhibition by ADP to be determined. Here we show that OpuA is not inhibited by up to 400 mm glycine betaine on the trans-side of the membrane. ADP is an inhibitor, but accumulation of ADP was negligible in the assays with inside-out-oriented OpuA, and potential effects of the ATP/ADP ratio on the ATP/substrate stoichiometry determinations could be eliminated. << Less

Nucleotide dependent monomer/dimer equilibrium of OpuAA, the nucleotide-binding protein of the osmotically regulated ABC transporter OpuA from Bacillus subtilis.

The OpuA system of Bacillus subtilis is a member of the substrate-binding-protein-dependent ABC transporter superfamily and serves for the uptake of the compatible solute glycine betaine under hyperosmotic growth conditions. Here, we have characterized the nucleotide-binding protein (OpuAA) of the B.subtilis OpuA transporter in vitro. OpuAA was overexpressed heterologously in Escherichia coli as a hexahistidine tag fusion protein and purified to homogeneity by affinity and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Dynamic monomer/dimer equilibrium was observed for OpuAA, and the K(D) value was determined to be 6 microM. Under high ionic strength assay conditions, the monomer/dimer interconversion was diminished, which enabled separation of both species by SEC and separate analysis of both monomeric and dimeric OpuAA. In the presence of 1 M NaCl, monomeric OpuAA showed a basal ATPase activity (K(M)=0.45 mM; k(2)=2.3 min(-1)), whereas dimeric OpuAA showed little ATPase activity under this condition. The addition of nucleotides influenced the monomer/dimer ratio of OpuAA, demonstrating different oligomeric states during its catalytic cycle. The monomer was the preferred species under post-hydrolysis conditions (e.g. ADP/Mg(2+)), whereas the dimer dominated the nucleotide-free and ATP-bound states. The affinity and stoichiometry of monomeric or dimeric OpuAA/ATP complexes were determined by means of the fluorescent ATP-analog TNP-ATP. One molecule of TNP-ATP was bound in the monomeric state and two TNP-ATP molecules were detected in the dimeric state of OpuAA. Binding of TNP-ADP/Mg(2+) to dimeric OpuAA induced a conformational change that led to the decay of the dimer. On the basis of our data, we propose a model that couples changes in the oligomeric state of OpuAA with ATP hydrolysis. << Less

Lipoprotein from the osmoregulated ABC transport system OpuA of Bacillus subtilis: purification of the glycine betaine binding protein and characterization of a functional lipidless mutant.

The OpuA transport system of Bacillus subtilis functions as a high-affinity uptake system for the osmoprotectant glycine betaine. It is a member of the ABC transporter superfamily and consists of an ATPase (OpuAA), an integral membrane protein (OpuAB), and a hydrophilic polypeptide (OpuAC) that shows the signature sequence of lipoproteins (B. Kempf and E. Bremer, J. Biol. Chem. 270:16701-16713, 1995). The OpuAC protein might thus serve as an extracellular substrate binding protein anchored in the cytoplasmic membrane via a lipid modification at an amino-terminal cysteine residue. A malE-opuAC hybrid gene was constructed and used to purify a lipidless OpuAC protein. The purified protein bound radiolabeled glycine betaine avidly and exhibited a KD of 6 microM for this ligand, demonstrating that OpuAC indeed functions as the substrate binding protein for the B. subtilis OpuA system. We have selectively expressed the opuAC gene under T7 phi10 control in Escherichia coli and have demonstrated through its metabolic labeling with [3H]palmitic acid that OpuAC is a lipoprotein. A mutant expressing an OpuAC protein in which the amino-terminal cysteine residue was changed to an alanine (OpuAC-3) was constructed by oligonucleotide site-directed mutagenesis. The OpuAC-3 protein was not acylated by [3H]palmitic acid, and part of it was secreted into the periplasmic space of E. coli, where it could be released from the cells by cold osmotic shock. The opuAC-3 mutation was recombined into an otherwise wild-type opuA operon in the chromosome of B. subtilis. Unexpectedly, this mutant OpuAC system still functioned efficiently for glycine betaine acquisition in vivo under high-osmolarity growth conditions. In addition, the mutant OpuA transporter exhibited kinetic parameters similar to that of the wild-type system. Our data suggest that the lipidless OpuAC-3 protein is held in the cytoplasmic membrane of B. subtilis via its uncleaved hydrophobic signal peptide. << Less

Osmoregulation in Lactococcus lactis: BusR, a transcriptional repressor of the glycine betaine uptake system BusA.
Romeo Y., Obis D., Bouvier J., Guillot A., Fourcans A., Bouvier I., Gutierrez C., Mistou M.Y.
The busA (opuA) locus of Lactococcus lactis encodes a glycine betaine uptake system. Transcription of busA is osmotically inducible and its induction after an osmotic stress is reduced in the presence of glycine betaine.

The busA (opuA) locus of Lactococcus lactis encodes a glycine betaine uptake system. Transcription of busA is osmotically inducible and its induction after an osmotic stress is reduced in the presence of glycine betaine. Using a genetic screen in CLG802, an Escherichia coli strain carrying a lacZ transcriptional fusion expressed under the control of the busA promoter, we isolated a genomic fragment from the L. lactis subsp. cremoris strain MG1363, which represses transcription from busAp. The cloned locus responsible for this repression was identified as a gene present upstream from the busA operon, encoding a putative DNA binding protein. This gene was named busR. Electrophoretic mobility shift and footprinting experiments showed that BusR is able to bind a site that overlaps the busA promoter. Overexpression of busR in L. lactis reduced expression of busA. Its disruption led to increased and essentially constitutive transcription of busA at low osmolarity. Therefore, BusR is a major actor of the osmotic regulation of busA in L. lactis. << Less

On the role of the two extracytoplasmic substrate-binding domains in the ABC transporter OpuA.

Members of two transporter families of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily use two or even four extracytoplasmic substrate-binding domains (SBDs) for transport. We report on the role of the two SBDs in the translocation cycle of the ABC transporter OpuA from Lactococcus lactis. Heterooligomeric OpuA complexes with only one SBD or one functional and one non-functional SBD (inactivated by covalent linkage of a substrate mimic) have been constructed, and the substrate binding and transport kinetics of the purified transporters, reconstituted in liposomes, have been determined. The data indicate that the two SBDs of OpuA interact in a cooperative manner in the translocation process by stimulating either the docking of the SBDs onto the translocator or the delivery of glycine betaine to the translocator. It appears that one of these initial steps, but not the later steps in translocation or resetting of the system to the initial state, is rate determining for transport. These new insights on the functional role of the extracytoplasmic SBDs are discussed in the light of the current knowledge of substrate-binding-protein-dependent ABC transporters. << Less

The osmosensing mechanism of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter OpuA of Lactococcus lactis has been elucidated for the protein reconstituted in liposomes. Activation of OpuA by osmotic upshift was instantaneous and reversible and followed changes in volume and membrane structure of the proteoliposomes. Osmotic activation of OpuA was dependent on the fraction of anionic lipids present in the lipid bilayer. Also, cationic and anionic lipophilic amphiphiles shifted the activation profile in a manner indicative of an osmosensing mechanism, in which electrostatic interactions between lipid headgroups and the OpuA protein play a major role. Further support for this notion came from experiments in which ATP-driven uptake and substrate-dependent ATP hydrolysis were measured with varying concentrations of osmolytes at the cytoplasmic face of the protein. Under iso-osmotic conditions, the transporter could be activated by high concentrations of ionic osmolytes, whereas neutral ones had no effect, demonstrating that intracellular ionic strength, rather than a specific signaling molecule or water activity, signals osmotic stress to the transporter. The data indicate that OpuA is under the control of a mechanism in which the membrane and ionic strength act in concert to signal osmotic changes. << Less
