Proteome analysis of Escherichia coli W3110 expressing an heterologous sigma factor
The recombinant plasmid pASK18 carries a Streptomyces DNA fragment which includes an open reading frame, designated psfS (putative sigma factor, Streptomyces), as its putative product showed a high degree of similarity with RNA polymerase sigma factors. Previous results showed that PsfS causes transcription initiation within the bgl operon promoter-silencer region in Escherichia coli K12. In this study a proteomic approach has been applied in order to perform a comparative analysis of E. coli K12 W3110 wild-type, W3110 (pASK18) and a W3110 Bgl+ spontaneous mutant. Either by qualitative or quantitative analysis, no significant difference was observed between the proteomes of W3110 and its Bgl+ derivative, while W3110 (pASK18) showed an altered profile by both analyses. Fourteen out of the 37 protein spots showing a different expression level in E. coli W3110 harboring pASK18 were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting. Among the proteins identified, thiol peroxidase (Tpx) was the only one up-regulated. The possible involvement of bgl and tpx in the survival of the pathogen E. coli during infection is discussed
