ABSTRACT
Our previous study showed that OmpA-deficient Salmonella Typhimurium (STM) failed to retain LAMP-1, quit Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV) and escaped to the host cytosol. Here we show that the cytosolic population of STM ΔompA sequestered autophagic markers, syntaxin17 and LC3B in a sseL-dependent manner and initiated lysosomal fusion. Moreover, inhibition of autophagy using bafilomycinA1 restored its intracellular proliferation. Ectopic overexpression of OmpA in STM ΔsifA restored its vacuolar niche and increased interaction of LAMP-1, suggesting a sifA-independent role of OmpA in maintaining an intact SCV. The OmpA extracellular loops impaired the LAMP-1 recruitment to SCV and caused bacterial release into the cytosol of macrophages, but unlike STM ΔompA, they retained their outer membrane stability and didn't activate the lysosomal degradation pathway aiding in their intra-macrophage survival. Finally, OmpA extracellular loop mutations protected the cytosolic STM ΔsifA from the lysosomal surveillance, revealing a unique OmpA-dependent strategy of STM for its intracellular survival.
