A positive charge region of Salmonella FliI is required for ATPase formation and efficient flagellar protein export
The FliH(2)FliI complex is thought to pilot flagellar subunit proteins from the cytoplasm to the transmembrane export gate complex for flagellar assembly in Salmonella enterica. FliI also forms a homo-hexamer to hydrolyze ATP, thereby activating the export gate complex to become an active protein tr...

description | The FliH(2)FliI complex is thought to pilot flagellar subunit proteins from the cytoplasm to the transmembrane export gate complex for flagellar assembly in Salmonella enterica. FliI also forms a homo-hexamer to hydrolyze ATP, thereby activating the export gate complex to become an active protein transporter. However, it remains unknown how this activation occurs. Here we report the role of a positively charged cluster formed by Arg-26, Arg-27, Arg-33, Arg-76 and Arg-93 of FliI in flagellar protein export. We show that Arg-33 and Arg-76 are involved in FliI ring formation and that the fliI(R26A/R27A/R33A/R76A/R93A) mutant requires the presence of FliH to fully exert its export function. We observed that gain-of-function mutations in FlhB increased the probability of substrate entry into the export gate complex, thereby restoring the export function of the ∆fliH fliI(R26A/R27A/R33A/R76A/R93A) mutant. We suggest that the positive charge cluster of FliI is responsible not only for well-regulated hexamer assembly but also for substrate entry into the gate complex. |
