Abstract

is a widely distributed marine bacterium that is a threat to the aquaculture industry as well as human health. Evidence has revealed critical roles for small RNAs (sRNAs) in bacterial physiology and cellular processes by modulating gene expression post-transcriptionally. GcvB is one of the most conserved sRNAs that is regarded as the master regulator of amino acid uptake and metabolism in a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria. However, little information about GcvB-mediated regulation in is available. Here we first characterized GcvB in ZJ-T and determined its regulon by integrated transcriptome and quantitative proteome analysis. Transcriptome analysis revealed 40 genes differentially expressed (DEGs) between wild-type ZJ-T and mutant ZJ-T-Δ, while proteome analysis identified 50 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between them, but only 4 of them displayed transcriptional differences, indicating that most DEPs are the result of post-transcriptional regulation of . Among the differently expressed proteins, 21 are supposed to be involved in amino acid biosynthesis and transport, and 11 are associated with type three secretion system (T3SS), suggesting that GcvB may play a role in the virulence besides amino acid metabolism. RNA-EMSA showed that Hfq binds to GcvB, which promotes its stability.
