Zinc in excess has a significant toxicity to bacteria because it is an important innate defense mechanism. There are many zinc molecules in the human body which compete with manganese for PsaA binding. However manganese has a higher affinity for PsaA while zinc is not transported by the ABC-transporter. Nevertheless, the competition by zinc reduces intracellular manganese concentrations, resulting in the up-regulation of PsaBCA operon expression. <ref>PMID:22072971</ref>

As a member of the Lipoprotein receptor-associated antigen I (LraI) family, the PsaA molecule contains four distinct regions.

The metal binding site is formed by the side chains of residues His67, His139, Glu205, and Asp280. This site has a tetrahedral coordination geometry. The amino acids His67 and His139 interact with the metal via Nε2 nitrogen atoms while the carboxylate side chains of Glu205 and Asp280 interact with the metal via their Oε1 and Oδ2 atoms. The atomic distance between His67 Nε2 and the metal is 1.99 Ắ while it is 2,01 Ắ for His 139 Nε2. It is 2,04 Ắ for Glu205 Oε1 and 2,02 Ắ for Asp280 Oδ2. The Oδ1 atom of Asp137 can form a hydrogen bond with Nδ1 of His139. Oδ1 atom of Asp65 can also form a hydrogen bond with His67 N.

Function

Mn2+ enables Streptococcus Pneunomiae to have a prompt and rapid growth. Superoxides are a key player in oxidative stress generated in the presence of iron. Therefore PsaA is essential for the existence of S. pneumoniae as mutations in the psaA gene cause deficiencies in growth but also in its virulence, adherence and the response to oxidative stress.

Adhesin and virulence

PsaA is well hidden beneath the cell wall and the polysaccharide capsule, which is why it does not directly act as an adhesin as initially assumed. This was confirmed by studies on psaB and psaC deletion mutants which were not deficient in PsaA but showed impaired adherence, similar to psaA deletion mutants. As the disruption of either of the members of the Psa operon affects pneumococcal adherence, it seems that this process is coupled to the cellular Mn2+ transport system. With bacterial adhesion being the first step in bacterial pathogenesis, the extinction of PsaA and the associated Psa operon lead to attenuated virulence in affected strains [2].

Virulence

Next to its involvement in bacterial adhesion and the colonization in the human nasopharynx, S. pneumoniae actively produces H2O2 in large amounts to augment its own virulence on the one hand, and, on the other hand, to utilize it as a weapon in the competition against other pathogens [2]. Mn2+ is also required for the activity of CpsB, a tyrosine phosphatase involved in the regulation of capsule production. And in some streptococcal species, lectin-mediated adherence requires Mn2+. Finally, mutations in the psaBCA operon result in an almost complete attenuation of virulence for all tested models of animal infection.

Oxidative stress

In S. pneumoniae H2O2 and superoxides are generated as toxic derivatives of molecular oxygen in several metabolic processes and during growth by pyruvate oxidase. Subsequently, H2O2 reacts with Fe2+ during the Fenton reaction. This results in the formation of the hydroxylyl radical that causes severe damages in the cell. As a protective response against this oxidative stress, S. pneumoniae produces an Mn2+-dependent superoxide dismutase (SodA) and the thiol peroxidase encoded by psaD in the Psa operon. Due to the use of H2O2 during pneumococcal virulence these two proteins and the dependence on Mn2+ are of major importance. When Mn2+ transport is disrupted, bacterial cells display hypersensitivity towards oxidative stress [2].


Interactions with other proteins

- piaA, pneumococcal iron acquisition A which is an iron-compound ABC transporter permease. It is required for bacterial growth and full virulence in pulmonary infection.

-pavA, Pneumococcal adherence and virulence factor A is an adherence and virulence protein A. It binds fibronectin.

-Wzg, which regulates the capsule production and is an integral membrane regulatory protein Cps2A

-Tpx, a thiol peroxidase with a Has antioxidant activity. This protein can remove peroxides or H2O2 by similarity.

-PsaC, a manganese ABC transporter permease

-PsaB, a manganese ABC transporter ATP-binding protein. Deleting psaB results in decreased expression of PsaA. PsaC and psaC require Mn2+ supplementation for growth and transformation.

-SPD_1450, an iron-dependent transcriptional regulator

-adcC, antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity is a zinc ABC transporter ATP-binding protein.

-adcB, a zinc ABC transporter permease


Disease

Otitis media

PsaA has been recognized to be involved in the adherence and virulence mechanisms of otitis media. Streptococcus pneumoniae is one of the main agents causing bacterial acute otitis media, directly or as complication of a viral upper respiratory tract infection. This disease is a highly prevalent pediatric disease worldwide. Hearing loss is a common problem associated with this disease. Streptococcus pneumoniae in middle ear can be resistant to penicillin and cephalosporin[3]


Pneumonia

PsaA protein is an indirect adhesin which is involved in colonization of the nasopharyngeal mucosal. Moreover, alveolar pneumonia is caused by the spread of Streptococcus pneumoniae from nasopharynx. Therefore PsaA protein is involved in infection of pulmonary parenchyma by Streptococcus pneumoniae. Sometimes, Streptococcus pneumoniae pass into the blood and causes a bacteremia besides pneumonia.


Application in Biotechnology

PsaA is being actively evaluated as a component of a vaccin in formulations composed of pneumococcal common proteins. PsaA is a component of a vaccin because this protein is immunogenic and stimulates an increase in antibody production when the nasopharynx is naturally colonized. PsaA has been expressed as an E.coli recombinant protein, purified, and evaluated in a phase one clinical trial. Progress in vaccine development is most advanced for Streptococcus pneumoniae. Indeed, there is a seven-valent capsular-conjugate vaccine, PREVNAR® but it is rather non efficient for otitis media.[4] PsaA has been shown to be an effective vaccine in animal models at preventing Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. <math>Insert formula here</math>
