摘要： The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor AlgU is involved in the regulation of various virulence-related pathways in Pseudomonas syringae, especially alginate biosynthesis and motility, and the role of AlgU differs among P. syringae pathovars. However, to date, the mechanism of its regulation in virulence of P. syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is still unclear. ECF sigma factors are a class of alternative sigma factors that typically function with anti-sigma factors as part of cell-surface signaling systems. Under non-inducing conditions, AlgU remains inhibited by anti-sigma factors such as MucA and MucB. To investigate the function of AlgU in Psa, mutant strains lacking algU or lacking algU with mucA and mucB genes, as well as complementary and overexpression strains of algU were generated, respectively. The results showed that AlgU was highly conserved among P. syringae pathovars and positively regulated growth rate, pathogenicity, and resistance to osmotic and oxidative stress of Psa QSY6. While AlgU did not affect the motility and exopolysaccharide production of Psa, its abundant expression enhanced the swimming ability of QSY6 and reduced its production of extracellular polysaccharides. Furthermore, AlgU regulates a number of virulence-related factors, including the Hrp system, the type VI secretion system, and flagellar synthesis. Specifically, AlgU induced the expression of hrpL and hrpRS in vivo, and repressed the transcription of hrpL and tssC in vitro, while promoting the expression of hrpS, fliC, and tssJ. This study contributes to a better understanding of the mechanisms of virulence regulation of AlgU in Psa.
