Résumé

The RNA binding protein is crucial for gene regulation at the post transcription level. In this study, functions of the DUF1127-containing protein and ProQ, which are RNA-binding proteins, were revealed in Vibrio alginolyticus. DUF1127 deletion increased the ability of biofilm formation, whereas ProQ deletion reduced the amount of biofilm. Moreover, extracellular proteinase secretion was significantly reduced in the DUF1127 deletion strain. ProQ, not DUF1127-containing protein, can help the cell to defense oxidative stress. Deletion of DUF1127 resulted in a higher ROS level in the cell, however, ProQ deletion showed no difference. RNA-seq unveiled the expression of genes involved in extracellular protease secretion were significantly downregulated and biofilm synthesis-related genes, such as rbsB and alsS, were differentially expressed in the DUF1127 deletion strain. ProQ affected the expression of genes involved in biofilm synthesis (flgC and flgE), virulence (betB and hutG), and oxidative stress. Moreover, the DUF1127-containing and ProQ affected the mRNA levels of various regulators, such as LysR and BetI. Overall, our study revealed that the DUF1127-containing protein and ProQ have crucial functions on biofilm formation in V. alginolyticus.
