ABSTRACT
We have previously isolated the Gram-positive chitin-degrading bacterium Paenibacillus sp. str. FPU-7. This bacterium traps chitin disaccharide (GlcNAc)2 on its cell surface using two homologous solute-binding proteins, NagB1 and NagB2. Bacteria use histidine kinase (HK) of the two-component regulatory system as an extracellular environment sensor. In this study, we found that nagS, which encodes a HK, is located next to the nagB1 gene. Biochemical experiments revealed that the NagS sensor domain (NagS30-294) interacts with the NagB1-(GlcNAc)2 complex. However, proof of NagS30-294 interacting with NagB1 without (GlcNAc)2 is currently unavailable. In contrast to NagB1, no complex formation was observed between NagS30-294 and NagB2, even in the presence of (GlcNAc)2. The NagS30-294 crystal structure at 1.8 Å resolution suggested that the canonical tandem-Per-Arnt-Sim fold recognizes the NagB1-(GlcNAc)2 complex. This study provides insight into the recognition of chitin oligosaccharides by bacteria.
