| + | BACKGROUND: In Gram-negative bacteria the ZnuABC transporter ensures adequate zinc import in Zn(II)-poor environments, like those encountered by pathogens within the infected host. Recently, the metal-binding protein ZinT was suggested to operate as an accessory component of ZnuABC in periplasmic zinc recruitment. Since ZinT is known to form a ZinT-ZnuA complex in the presence of Zn(II) it was proposed to transfer Zn(II) to ZnuA. The present work was undertaken to test this claim. METHODS: ZinT and its structural relationship with ZnuA have been characterized by multiple biophysical techniques (X-ray crystallography, SAXS, analytical ultracentrifugation, fluorescence spectroscopy). RESULTS: The metal-free and metal-bound crystal structures of Salmonella enterica ZinT show one Zn(II) binding site and limited structural changes upon metal removal. Spectroscopic titrations with Zn(II) yield a KD value of 22+/-2nM for ZinT, while those with ZnuA point to one high affinity (KD<20nM) and one low affinity Zn(II) binding site (KD in the micromolar range). Sedimentation velocity experiments established that Zn(II)-bound ZinT interacts with ZnuA, whereas apo-ZinT does not. The model of the ZinT-ZnuA complex derived from small angle X-ray scattering experiments points to a disposition that favors metal transfer as the metal binding cavities of the two proteins face each other. CONCLUSIONS: ZinT acts as a Zn(II)-buffering protein that delivers Zn(II) to ZnuA. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE: Knowledge of the ZinT-ZnuA relationship is crucial for understanding bacterial Zn(II) uptake. | ||
