additional information construction of a SpkE knockout DELTASpkE mutant strain, polypeptide profile and phosphorylation of individual proteins in the wild-type strain and the DELTASpkE mutant, phenotype, overview. The DELTASpkE protein pattern lacks several protein groups, including proteins of 65-75 kDa with pI 5.0-5.1, proteins of 65-75 kDa and a pI of about 5.3, and proteins of 45-50 kDa with pI 5.5 Synechocystis sp.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction induction of ndhD2 transcription is dramatically decreased in the DELTASpk? mutant in both normal growth conditions and in stress. The decrease is significant in comparisons with wild-type GS cells and the cold stress sensor-defective Hik33 mutant. Transcription of gene crhR in the DELTASpkE mutant is somewhat lower than in wild-type cells in both optimal conditions and stress. The crhR transcription level in the DELTASpkE mutant is comparable with or slightly lower than in the DELTAHik33 mutant. Since crhR is partly controlled by Hik33, the finding may indirectly implicate SpkE in regulating crhR transcription. Transcription of desB is partly controlled by Hik33. desB mRNA accumulation in cold stress depends on the function of spkB, spkD, and spkE. The desB mRNA levels in the corresponding mutants are lower than in wild-type cells, comparable with or somewhat lower than in the DELTAHik33 mutant. Hik33 and SpkE act together to regulate desB expression. The transcription profile of the cold stress response genes in the SpkE mutant is similar to that of the Hik33 mutant Synechocystis sp.
physiological function SpkE is a functionally active protein kinase and utilizes basic cell proteins as preferential substrates. SpkE may act as an additional regulator of ndhD2 expression. The functional enzyme SpkE proves essential for phosphorylation of proteins with 50-75 kDa, and pI 5.6-5.8. SpkE may modify different isoforms of one protein. The enzyme SpkE is involved in transcriptional regulation during cold stress. None of the STPKs possessing transmembrane domains is involved in regulating the expression of the cold-inducible genes hliB, hliC, ndhD2, rbpA, and crhR, while enzymes SpkB, SpkD, SpkE, and SpkG act as possible regulators of the cold stress response occurring at the transcriptional level Synechocystis sp.
