Characterization of prokaryotic Dsb proteins
Abstract: Many periplasmic proteins of Gram-negative
pathogens which contain two or more cysteine residues gain their
proper structure as a result of an insertion of disulfide bridges.
The process is facilitated by a Dsb (disulfide bond)
family of the redox proteins. In eukaryotes, disulfide bond
formation and isomerization is catalyzed in
the endoplasmic reticulum by protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) and
related proteins, whereas in Gram-negative prokaryotes the process
takes place in the bacterial periplasm. Among the disulfide
oxidoreductases the most extensively studied are those of E. coli
which generate two separate, non-interacting pathways functioning in
the periplasmic space: oxidative pathway (DsbA, DsbB) and
isomerization pathway (DsbC, DsbD, DsbE, DsbG). They have been
characterized through a combination of genetic and biochemical
approaches. This review focuses on the pathways of disulfide bond
formation and isomerization in bacteria, taking Escherichia coli
as a general model. It also describes recent findings concerning
disulfide bond formation in Gram-positive
bacteria, which do not have a periplasm.
