520 3 |a According to the change of environment, soil-dwelling Bacillus species differentiate into distinct subpopulations, such as spores and competent cells. Rap-Phr systems have been found to be involved in this differentiation circuit by interacting with major regulatory proteins, such as Spo0A, ComA, and DegU. In this study, we report that the plasmid-born RapQ-PhrQ system found in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens B3 affects three regulatory pathways in the heterologous host Bacillus subtilis. Expression of rapQ in B. subtilis OKB105 strongly suppressed its sporulation efficiency, transformation efficiency, and surfactin production. Co-expression of phrQ or addition of synthesized PhrQ pentapeptide in vitro could compensate for the suppressive effects caused by rapQ. We also found that expression of rapQ decreased the transcriptional level of the sporulation-related gene spoIIE and surfactin synthesis-related gene srfA; meanwhile, the transcriptional levels of these genes could be rescued by co-expression of phrQ and in vitro addition of PhrQ pentapeptide. Electrophoretic mobility shift (EMSA) result also showed that RapQ could bind to ComA without interacting with ComA binding to DNA, and PhrQ pentapeptide antagonized RapQ activity in vitro. These results indicate that this new plasmid-born RapQ-PhrQ system controls sporulation, competent cell formation, and surfactin production in B. subtilis OKB105.
