摘要
Sulphur containing amino acids, methionine and cysteine are highly prone to oxidation. Reduction of oxidized methionine (Met-SO) residues to methionine (Met) by methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msrs) enhances the survival of bacterial pathogens under oxidative stress conditions. S. Typhimurium encodes two types (cytoplasmic and periplasmic) of Msrs. Periplasmic proteins, due to their location are highly vulnerable to hostgenerated oxidants. Therefore, the periplasmic Msr (MsrP) mediated repair (as compared to the cytoplasmic counterpart) might play a more imperative role in defending host-generated oxidants. Contrary to this, we show that in comparison to the Delta msrP strain, the mutant strains in the cytoplasmic Msrs (Delta msrA and Delta msrAC strains) showed many folds more susceptibility to chloramine-T and neutrophils. Further Delta msrA and Delta msrAC strains accumulated higher levels of ROS and showed compromised fitness in mice spleen and liver. Our data suggest the pivotal role of cytoplasmic Msrs in oxidative stress survival of S. Typhimurium.
