Résumé

Post-translational addition of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) to proteins is commonly associated with a variety of stress responses and cellular processes in eukaryotes, but its potential roles in bacteria are unclear. Here, we show that protein HmwC acts as an O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) responsible for O-GlcNAcylation of multiple proteins in Yersinia pestis, a flea-borne pathogen responsible for plague. We identify 64 O-GlcNAcylated proteins (comprising 65 sites) with differential abundance under conditions mimicking the mammalian host (Mh) and flea vector (Fv) environments. Deletion of hmwC, encoding a putative OGT, structurally distinct from any existing member of the GT41 family, results in reduced O-GlcNAcylation, reduced growth, and alterations in virulence properties and survival under stress. Purified HmwC can modify target proteins in vitro using UDP-GlcNAc as sugar donor. One of the target proteins, OsdY, promotes Y. pestis survival under oxidative stress conditions. Thus, our results support that regulation of antioxidative responses through O-GlcNAcylation may be a conserved process shared by prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
