Pseudomonas aeruginosa secretes three major proteases: elastase B (LasB), protease IV (PIV), and elastase A (LasA), which play crucial roles in infection and pathogenesis. These proteases are activated sequentially from LasB in a proteolytic cascade, and LasB was previously thought to undergo auto-activation. However, our previous study suggested that LasB cannot auto-activate independently but requires additional quorum sensing (QS)-dependent factors for activation, as LasB remained inactive in QS-deficient P. aeruginosa (QS-) even under artificial overexpression. In this study, we provide evidence for the existence of a LasB inhibitor in QS- mutants: inactive LasB overexpressed in QS- strains was in its processed form and could be reactivated upon purification; when full-length LasB was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, a heterologous bacterium lacking both LasB activators and inhibitors, the protein underwent normal processing and activation; and purified active LasB was significantly inhibited by culture supernatant (CS) from QS- strains but not by CS from QS+ strains. These findings demonstrate that a LasB inhibitor exists in QS- strains, and in its absence, LasB can undergo auto-activation without requiring an activator. Based on these results, we propose an updated hypothesis: the QS-dependent LasB activator functions by removing the LasB inhibitor rather than acting directly on LasB itself, thus preventing premature LasB activation until QS response is initiated.
Three major proteases, elastase B (LasB), protease IV (PIV),
and elastase A (LasA) expressed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
play important roles in infections and pathogeneses. These
are activated by a proteolytic cascade initiated by the activation
of LasB. In this study, we investigated whether LasB
could be inhibited using its propeptide (LasBpp). Although
LasA and PIV were inhibited by their propeptides, LasB was
not inhibited by purified LasBpp because LasB degraded LasBpp.
To address this problem, mutant LasBpp variants were constructed
to obtain a mutant LasBpp resistant to LasB degradation.
A C-terminal deletion series of LasBpp was tested in
vivo, and two positive candidates, T2 and T2-1, were selected.
However, both caused growth retardation and were unstably
expressed in vivo. Since deleting the C-terminal end of LasBpp
significantly affected its stable expression, substitution mutations
were introduced at the two amino acids near the
truncation site of T2-1. The resulting mutants, LasBppE172D,
LasBppG173A, and LasBppE172DG173A, significantly diminished LasB
activity when overexpressed in vivo and were stably expressed
in MW1, a quorum sensing mutant that does not produce
LasB. In vitro analysis showed that purified LasBppE172DG173A
inhibited LasB activity to a small extent. Summarizing, Cterminal
modification of LasBpp profoundly affected the stable
expression of LasBpp, and little enhanced the ability of
LasBpp to resist degradation by LasB.
A reducing system of SoxR, a regulator of redox-active molecules,
was identified as rsxABCDGE gene products and RseC
in Escherichia coli through genetic studies. We found that
ApbE was an additional component of the reducer system.
Bacterial two hybrid analysis revealed that these proteins indeed
had multiple interactions among themselves. RseC and
RsxB formed the core of the complex, interacting with more
than five other components. RsxC, the only cytoplasmic component
of the system, interacted with SoxR. It might be linked
with the rest of the complex via RsxB. Membrane fractions
containing the wild type complex but not the mutant complex
reduced purified SoxR using NADH as an electron source.
These results suggest that Rsx genes, RseC, and ApbE can
form a complex using NAD(P)H to reduce SoxR.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic human pathogen,
causes many biofilm-mediated chronic infections. In this study,
biofilm structures of various clinical strains of P. aeruginosa
isolated from hospitalized patients were examined and their
influence on the biofilm-dispersing effects of chemicals was
investigated. The clinical isolates formed structurally distinct
biofilms that could be classified into three different groups:
1) mushroom-like, 2) thin flat, and 3) thick flat structures.
A dispersion of these differently structured biofilms was induced
using two biofilm-dispersing agents, anthranilate and
sodium nitroprusside (SNP). Although both SNP and anthranilate
could disperse all types of biofilms, the thick flat biofilms
were dispersed less efficiently than the biofilms of other
structures. This suggests that biofilm-dispersing agents have
higher potency on the biofilms of porous structures than on
densely packed biofilms.

Biofilms are complex microbial architectures that attach to
surfaces and encase microorganisms in a matrix composed
of self-produced hydrated extracellular polymeric substances
(EPSs). In biofilms, microorganisms become much more
resistant to antimicrobial treatments, harsh environmental
conditions, and host immunity. Biofilm formation by microbial
pathogens greatly enhances survival in hosts and causes
chronic infections that result in persistent inflammation and
tissue damages. Currently, it is believed over 80% of chronic
infectious diseases are mediated by biofilms, and it is known
that conventional antibiotic medications are inadequate at
eradicating these biofilm-mediated infections. This situation
demands new strategies for biofilm-associated infections,
and currently, researchers focus on the development of antibiofilm
agents that are specific to biofilms, but are nontoxic,
because it is believed that this prevents the development of
drug resistance. Here, we review the most promising antibiofilm
agents undergoing intensive research and development.

In recent decades, many researchers have written numerous
articles about microbial biofilms. Biofilm is a complex community
of microorganisms and an example of bacterial group
behavior. Biofilm is usually considered a sessile mode of life
derived from the attached growth of microbes to surfaces, and
most biofilms are embedded in self-produced extracellular
matrix composed of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs),
such as polysaccharides, extracellular DNAs (eDNA), and
proteins. Dispersal, a mode of biofilm detachment indicates
active mechanisms that cause individual cells to separate from
the biofilm and return to planktonic life. Since biofilm cells
are cemented and surrounded by EPSs, dispersal is not simple
to do and many researchers are now paying more attention
to this active detachment process. Unlike other modes
of biofilm detachment such as erosion or sloughing, which
are generally considered passive processes, dispersal occurs
as a result of complex spatial differentiation and molecular
events in biofilm cells in response to various environmental
cues, and there are many biological reasons that force bacterial
cells to disperse from the biofilms. In this review, we
mainly focus on the spatial differentiation of biofilm that is
a prerequisite for dispersal, as well as environmental cues
and molecular events related to the biofilm dispersal. More
specifically, we discuss the dispersal-related phenomena and
mechanisms observed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an important
opportunistic human pathogen and representative
model organism for biofilm study.

For a long time, antibiotics have been ‘magical weapons’ to
combat pathogenic microbes. The success of antibiotics is
now greatly threatened by resistance to antibiotics and many
scientists have already talked about the coming of the postantibiotic
era. This special issue is prepared to understand
recent research findings and new concepts about antibiotic
resistance. Above all, this special issue explores mechanisms
for the generation, selection, and spread of antibiotic resistance,
and gives insight into what to target to prevent the development
of antibiotic resistance. Just as antibiotics came
from the concept of “magic bullet”, a breakthrough will come
from a new concept based on a profound understanding of
antibiotic resistance.

A promoter that is inducible by paraquat and menadione, the superoxide generators, independently of soxRS has been found in front of the sufABCDSE operon in Escherichia coli. Based on the observation that SufA is a holomog of IscA that functions in the assembly of iron sulfur cluster and the sufA promoter (sufAp) contains a putative Fur-binding consensus, we investigated whether this gene is regulated by Fur, a ferric uptake regulator. When examined in several sufAp-lacZ chromosomal fusion strains, sufAp was induced by EDTA, an iron chelator and a well-known Fur-inducer. The basal level of sufA expression increased dramatically in fur mutant, suggesting repression of sufAp by Fur. The derepression in fur mutant and EDTA-induction of sufA expression required nucleotides up to -61, where a putative Fur box is located. Purified Fur protein bound to the DNA fragment containing the putative Fur box between -35 and -10 promoter elements. The regulation by Fur and menadione induction of sufAp acted independently. The rpoS mutation increased sufA induction by menadione, suggesting that the stationary sigma factor RpoS acts negatively on sufA induction.
