Title Identification of an outer membrane protease of Rickettsia rickettsii responsible for maturation of surface exposed autotransporters
Organisms Rickettsia rickettsii; Chlorocebus aethiops
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Members of the spotted fever group rickettsia express four large, surface-exposed autotransporters, at least one of which is a known virulence determinant. Autotransporter translocation to the bacterial outer surface, also known as type V secretion, involves formation of a b-barrel autotransporter domain in the periplasm that inserts into the outer membrane to form a pore through which the N-terminal passenger domain is passed and exposed on the outer surface. Two major surface antigens of Rickettsia rickettsii, are known to be exposed and the passenger domain cleaved from the autotransporter domain. A highly passaged strain of R. rickettsii, Iowa, fails to cleave these autotransporters and is avirulent. We have identified a putative peptidase, truncated in the Iowa strain, that when reconstituted into Iowa restores appropriate processing of the autotransporters as well as restoring a modest degree of virulence.
 
Overall design Comparative gene expression profiling analysis of Rickettsia rickettsii infected Vero cells at 4, 24, 48 hours post infection.
