Comparative secretome analysis reveals cross-talk between type III secretion system and flagella assembly in Pseudomonas plecoglossicida

The Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas plecoglossicida has caused visceral granulomas disease in several farmed fish species, including large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea), which results in severe economic losses. Type III secretion systems (T3SS) are protein secretion and translocation nano...

description The Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas plecoglossicida has caused visceral granulomas disease in several farmed fish species, including large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea), which results in severe economic losses. Type III secretion systems (T3SS) are protein secretion and translocation nanomachines widely employed by many Gram-negative bacterial pathogens for infection and pathogenicity. However, the exact role of T3SS in the pathogenesis of P. plecoglossicida infection is still unclear. In this study, a T3SS translocators deletion strain (△popBD) of P. plecoglossicida was constructed to investigate the function of T3SS. Then comparative secretome analysis of the P. plecoglossicida wild-type (WT) and △popBD mutant strains was conducted by label-free quantitation (LFQ) mass spectrometry. The results show that knockout of T3SS translocators popB and popD has an adverse effect on the effector protein ExoU secretion, flagella assembly, and biofilm formation. Further experimental validations also confirmed that popB-popD deletion could affect the P. plecoglossicida flagella morphology/formation, adherence, mobility, and biofilm formation. These data indicate that a cross-talk exists between the P. plecoglossicida T3SS and the flagella system. Our results, therefore, will facilitate the further under-standing of the pathogenic mechanisms leading to visceral granulomas disease caused by P. plecoglossicida.
