Function

[DEGS_ECOLI] When heat shock or other environmental stresses disrupt protein folding in the periplasm, DegS senses the accumulation of unassembled outer membrane porins (OMPs) and then initiates RseA (anti sigma-E factor) degradation by cleaving it in its periplasmic domain, making it an attractive substrate for subsequent cleavage by RseP. This cascade that ultimately leads to the sigma-E-driven expression of a variety of factors dealing with folding stress in the periplasm and OMP assembly.^[1] ^[2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

In the E. coli periplasm, C-terminal peptides of misfolded outer-membrane porins (OMPs) bind to the PDZ domains of the trimeric DegS protease, triggering cleavage of a transmembrane regulator and transcriptional activation of stress genes. We show that an active-site DegS mutation partially bypasses the requirement for peptide activation and acts synergistically with mutations that disrupt contacts between the protease and PDZ domains. Biochemical results support an allosteric model, in which these mutations, active-site modification, and peptide/substrate binding act in concert to stabilize proteolytically active DegS. Cocrystal structures of DegS in complex with different OMP peptides reveal activation of the protease domain with varied conformations of the PDZ domain and without specific contacts from the bound OMP peptide. Taken together, these results indicate that the binding of OMP peptides activates proteolysis principally by relieving inhibitory contacts between the PDZ domain and the protease domain of DegS.

OMP peptides activate the DegS stress-sensor protease by a relief of inhibition mechanism.,Sohn J, Grant RA, Sauer RT Structure. 2009 Oct 14;17(10):1411-21. PMID:19836340^[3]
