摘要: Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize intracellular membrane-enveloped magnetite bodies known as magnetosomes which have been applied in biotechnology and medicine. A series of proteins involved in ferric ion transport and redox required for magnetite formation have been identified but the knowledge of magnetosome biomineralization remains very limited. Here, we identify a novel OxyR homolog (named OxyR-Like), the disruption of which resulted in low ferromagnetism and disfigured nano-sized iron oxide crystals. High resolution-transmission electron microscopy showed that these nanoparticles are mainly composed of magnetite accompanied with ferric oxide including a-Fe2O3 and +-Fe2O3. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and DNase I footprinting showed that OxyR-Like binds the conserved 5'-GATA-N{9}-TATC-3' region within the promoter of pyruvate dehydrogenase (pdh) complex operon. Quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase PCR indicated that not only the expression of pdh operon but also genes related to magnetosomes biosynthesis and tricarboxylic acid cycle decreased dramatically, suggesting a link between carbon metabolism and magnetosome formation. Taken together, our results show that OxyR-Like plays a key role in magnetosomes formation.
