An inner membrane enzyme in Salmonella and Escherichia coli that transfers 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose to lipid A: induction on polymyxin-resistant mutants and role of a novel lipid-linked donor.

Attachment of the cationic sugar 4-amino-4-deoxy-l-arabinose (l-Ara4N) to lipid A is required for the maintenance of polymyxin resistance in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. The enzymes that synthesize l-Ara4N and transfer it to lipid A have not been identified. We now report an inner membrane enzyme, expressed in polymyxin-resistant mutants, that adds one or two l-Ara4N moieties to lipid A or its immediate precursors. No soluble factors are required. A gene located near minute 51 on the S. typhimurium and E. coli chromosomes (previously termed orf5, pmrK, or yfbI) encodes the l-Ara4N transferase. The enzyme, renamed ArnT, consists of 548 amino acid residues in S. typhimurium with 12 possible membrane-spanning regions. ArnT displays distant similarity to yeast protein mannosyltransferases. ArnT adds two l-Ara4N units to lipid A precursors containing a Kdo disaccharide. However, as shown by mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, it transfers only a single l-Ara4N residue to the 1-phosphate moiety of lipid IV(A), a precursor lacking Kdo. Proteins with full-length sequence similarity to ArnT are present in genomes of other bacteria thought to synthesize l-Ara4N-modified lipid A, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Yersinia pestis. As shown in the following article (Trent, M. S., Ribeiro, A. A., Doerrler, W. T., Lin, S., Cotter, R. J., and Raetz, C. R. H. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 43132-43144), ArnT utilizes the novel lipid undecaprenyl phosphate-alpha-l-Ara4N as its sugar donor, suggesting that l-Ara4N transfer to lipid A occurs on the periplasmic side of the inner membrane. << Less

A formyltransferase required for polymyxin resistance in Escherichia coli and the modification of lipid A with 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose: identification and function of UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-L-arabinose.

Modification of the phosphate groups of lipid A with 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (L-Ara4N) is required for resistance to polymyxin and cationic antimicrobial peptides in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. We previously demonstrated that the enzyme ArnA catalyzes the NAD+-dependent oxidative decarboxylation of UDP-glucuronic acid to yield the UDP-4''-ketopentose, uridine 5'-diphospho-beta-(L-threo-pentapyranosyl-4''-ulose), which is converted by ArnB to UDP-beta-(L-Ara4N). E. coli ArnA is a bi-functional enzyme with a molecular mass of approximately 74 kDa. The oxidative decarboxylation of UDP-glucuronic acid is catalyzed by the 345-residue C-terminal domain of ArnA. The latter shows sequence similarity to enzymes that oxidize the C-4'' position of sugar nucleotides, like UDP-galactose epimerase, dTDP-glucose-4,6-dehydratase, and UDP-xylose synthase. We now show that the 304-residue N-terminal domain catalyzes the N-10-formyltetrahydrofolate-dependent formylation of the 4''-amine of UDP-L-Ara4N, generating the novel sugar nucleotide, uridine 5'-diphospho-beta-(4-deoxy-4-formamido-L-arabinose). The N-terminal domain is highly homologous to methionyl-tRNA(f)Met formyltransferase. The structure of the formylated sugar nucleotide generated in vitro by ArnA was validated by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The two domains of ArnA were expressed independently as active proteins in E. coli. Both were required for maintenance of polymyxin resistance and L-Ara4N modification of lipid A. We conclude that N-formylation of UDP-L-Ara4N is an obligatory step in the biosynthesis of L-Ara4N-modified lipid A in polymyxin-resistant mutants. We further demonstrate that only the formylated sugar nucleotide is converted in vitro to an undecaprenyl phosphate-linked form by the enzyme ArnC. Because the L-Ara4N unit attached to lipid A is not derivatized with a formyl group, we postulate the existence of a deformylase, acting later in the pathway. << Less
