Overexpression and purification of ferric enterobactin esterase from Escherichia coli. Demonstration of enzymatic hydrolysis of enterobactin and its iron complex.

The Escherichia coli ferric enterobactin esterase gene (fes) was cloned into the vector pGEM3Z under the control of the T7 gene 10 promoter and overexpressed to approximately 15% of the total cellular protein. The ferric enterobactin esterase (Fes) enzyme was purified as a 43-kDa monomer by gel filtration chromatography. Purified Fes preparations were examined for esterase activity on enterobactin and its metal complexes and for iron reduction from ferric complexes of enterobactin and 1,3,5-tris(N,N',N"-2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)aminomethylbenzene (MECAM), a structural analog lacking ester linkages. Fes effectively catalyzed the hydrolysis of both enterobactin and its ferric complex, exhibiting a 4-fold greater activity on the free ligand. It also cleaved the aluminum (III) complex at a rate similar to the ferric complex, suggesting that ester hydrolysis of the ligand backbone is independent of any reductive process associated with the bound metal. Ferrous iron was released from the enterobactin complex at a rate similar to ligand cleavage indicating that hydrolysis and iron reduction are tightly associated. However, no detectable release of ferrous iron from the MECAM complex implies that, with these in vitro preparations, metal reduction depends upon, and is subsequent to, the esterase activity of Fes. These observations are discussed in relation to studies which show that such enterobactin analogs can supply growth-promoting iron concentrations to E. coli. << Less

Molecular characterization of the Escherichia coli enterobactin cistron entF and coupled expression of entF and the fes gene.

The Escherichia coli entF gene, which encodes the serine-activating enzyme involved in enterobactin synthesis, has been localized to a 4.7-kilobase-pair DNA fragment inserted in the vector pBR328. This recombinant molecule, pITS32, restored the ability of an entF mutant to grow on low-iron medium and to produce enterobactin. Examination of its translation products by minicell and electrophoretic analyses revealed a protein of approximately 160,000 daltons, which we identified as the EntF protein. A small DNA segment from pITS32 containing the translational start site for entF allowed the low constitutive expression of beta-galactosidase when cloned (pITS301) upstream of the lacZ structural gene in the vector pMC1403. In contrast, a clone (pITS312) containing the identical entF-lacZ fusion and a larger region upstream of entF including the entire fes gene and extending into the fepA gene (whose transcription is in the opposite direction relative to entF) expressed beta-galactosidase in high yet inducible amounts in response to fluctuations in the metabolic iron concentration. Transposon insertion mutations in the fes gene but not an insertion near the 5' region of fepA in pITS312 reduced this high inducible expression to the low constitutive level seen for pITS301. These observations are most readily explained by the presence of a regulatory region located upstream of fes which mediates the iron-regulated expression of a transcript that includes the fes and entF genes. << Less

Properties of the enzyme which hydrolyses enterochelin (a cyclic trimer of 2,3-dihydroxy-N-benzoyl-L-serine) to 2,3-dihydroxybenzoylserine have been investigated with a view to resolving discrepancies between earlier reports. Enterochelin esterase, previously reported to consists of two components (O'Brien, I.G., Cox, G.B. and Gibson, F. (1971) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 237, 537-549), has been shown to be fully active in the absence of the so-called A component. The hydrolase described previously (Bryce, G.F. and Brot, N. (1972) Biochemistry 11, 1708-1715) as being able to break down enterochelin but not its iron complex, ferric-enterochelin, appears to be identical with the B component of enterochelin esterase. The single component enterochelin esterase corresponding to what was previously described as component B, hydrolyses both enterochelin and ferric-enterochelin. Under the assay conditions used, enterochelin is hydrolysed 2.5 times faster than the complex. Enzymatic activity is inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and is lost rapidly at 37 degrees C. Activity is stabilized in the presence of ferric-enterochelin, enterochelin, dithiothreitol or certain protein fractions. << Less

Reversed-phase HPLC separation of enterobactin and its 2,3-dihydroxybenzoylserine derivatives was used for a comparative analysis of mutants of Escherichia coli, defective in the regulation of enterobactin biosynthesis (fur), enterobactin transport (fepA) and enterobactin esterase (fes). A complete separation of all 2,3-dihydroxybenzoylserine compounds was achieved: the monomer (DHBS), the linear dimer (DHBS)2 and trimer (DHBS)3, the cyclic trimer, enterobactin, as well as 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid. The production of all these compounds was followed after ethylacetate extraction from acidified culture fluids. Enterobactin was found to be the predominant product in all mutant strains. The mutant strains behaved differently with regard to the breakdown products. All degradation products, such as DHBS, (DHBS)2 and (DHBS)3, were detected in the overproducing fur mutant where both transport and esterase are still functioning, while only the monomer, DHBS, was detected in the fepA mutant and no degradation was found in the esterase-deficient fes mutant. From the pattern of breakdown products it may be inferred that the esterase acts in two different ways, depending on whether transport is functioning or not. Thus, esterolytic cleavage of ferric enterobactin after entering the cells results in a mixture of all three hydrolysis products, i.e. DHBS, (DHBS)2 and (DHBS)3, while cleavage of iron-free enterobactin subsequent to its biosynthesis yields only the monomer. Thus, the results of quantitative HPLC analysis of enterobactin and its breakdown products show that different enterobactin esterase products arise, depending on whether iron is bound to enterobactin or not. << Less

A key role for the periplasmic PfeE esterase in iron acquisition via the siderophore enterobactin in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Enterobactin (ENT) is a siderophore (iron-chelating compound) produced by Escherichia coli to gain access to iron, an indispensable nutrient for bacterial growth. ENT is used as an exosiderophore by Pseudomonas aeruginosa with transport of ferri-ENT across the outer membrane by the PfeA transporter. Next to the pfeA gene on the chromosome is localized a gene encoding for an esterase, PfeE, whose transcription is regulated, as for pfeA, by the presence of ENT in bacterial environment. Purified PfeE hydrolyzed ferri-ENT into three molecules of 2,3-DHBS (2,3-dihydroxybenzoylserine) still complexed with ferric iron, and complete dissociation of iron from ENT chelating groups was only possible in the presence of both PfeE and an iron reducer, such as DTT. The crystal structure of PfeE and an inactive PfeE mutant complexed with ferri-ENT or a nonhydrolyzable ferri-catechol complex allowed identification of the enzyme binding site and the catalytic triad. Finally, cell fractionation and fluorescence microscopy showed periplasmic localization of PfeE in P. aeruginosa cells. Thus, the molecular mechanism of iron dissociation from ENT in P. aeruginosa differs from that previously described in E. coli. In P. aeruginosa, siderophore hydrolysis occurs in the periplasm, with ENT never reaching the bacterial cytoplasm. In E. coli, ferri-ENT crosses the inner membrane via the ABC transporter FepBCD and ferri-ENT is hydrolyzed by the esterase Fes only once it is in the cytoplasm. << Less
