Zusammenfassung
The study describes the effect of aerobic conditions on the proteome of homofermentative lactic acid bacterium Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CM MSU 529 grown in a batch culture. Aeration caused the induction of the biosynthesis of 43 proteins, while 14 proteins were downregulated as detected by label-free LC-MS/MS. Upregulated proteins are involved in oxygen consumption (Pox, LctO, pyridoxine 5'-phosphate oxidase), xylulose 5-phosphate conversion (Xfp), pyruvate metabolism (PdhD, AlsS, AlsD), reactive oxygen species (ROS) elimination (Tpx, TrxA, Npr), general stress response (GroES, PfpI, universal stress protein, YqiG), antioxidant production (CysK, DkgA), pyrimidine metabolism (CarA, CarB, PyrE, PyrC, PyrB, PyrR), oligopeptide transport and metabolism (OppA, PepO), and maturation and stability of ribosomal subunits (RbfA, VicX). Downregulated proteins participate in ROS defense (AhpC), citrate and pyruvate consumption (CitE, PflB), oxaloacetate production (AvtA), arginine synthesis (ArgG), amino acid transport (GlnQ), and deoxynucleoside biosynthesis (RtpR). The data obtained shed light on mechanisms providing O2-tolerance and adaptation to aerobic conditions in strain CM MSU 529. The biosynthesis of 39 from 57 differentially abundant proteins was shown to be O2-sensitive in lactic acid bacteria for the first time. To our knowledge this is the first study on the impact of aerobic cultivation on the proteome of L. rhamnosus.
