Function

PHOQ_ECOLI Member of the two-component regulatory system PhoP/PhoQ involved in adaptation to low Mg(2+) environments and the control of acid resistance genes. In low periplasmic Mg(2+), PhoQ functions as a membrane-associated protein kinase that undergoes autophosphorylation and subsequently transfers the phosphate to PhoP, resulting in the expression of PhoP-activated genes (PAG) and repression of PhoP-repressed genes (PRG). In high periplasmic Mg(2+), acts as a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates phospho-PhoP, resulting in the repression of PAG and may lead to expression of some PRG (By similarity). PhoP-regulated transcription is redox-sensitive, being activated when the periplasm becomes more reducing (deletion of dsbA/dsbB, or treatment with dithiothreitol). MgrB acts between DsbA/DsbB and PhoP/PhoQ in this pathway; the 2 periplasmic Cys residues of MgrB are required for its action on PhoQ, which then acts on PhoP. Mediates magnesium influx to the cytosol by activation of mgtA. Promotes expression of the two-component regulatory system rstA/rstB and transcription of the hemL, mgrB, nagA, slyB, vboR and yrbL genes.^[1]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The PhoQ/PhoP two-component signal transduction system is conserved in various Gram-negative bacteria and is often involved in the expression of virulence in pathogens. The small inner membrane protein SafA activates PhoQ in Escherichia coli independently from other known signals that control PhoQ activity. We have previously shown that SafA directly interacts with the sensor domain of the periplasmic region of PhoQ (PhoQ-SD) for activation, and that a D179R mutation in PhoQ-SD attenuates PhoQ activation by SafA. In this study, structural comparison of wild-type PhoQ-SD and D179R revealed a difference in the cavity (SD (sensory domain) pocket) found in the central core of this domain. This was the only structural difference between the two proteins. Site-directed mutagenesis of the residues surrounding the SD pocket has supported the SD pocket as a site involved in PhoQ activity. Furthermore, the SD pocket has also been shown to be involved in SafA-mediated PhoQ control.
