CysK, uno degli isoenzimi di O-acetilserina sulfidrilasi (OASS) presenti in piante e batteri, è un enzima studiato da molto tempo ed il suo ruolo fisiologico nella sintesi della cisteina è stato ben definito. Recentemente sono state scoperte altre funzioni apparentemente non collegate alla sua funzione enzimatica (moonlighting). Una di queste è l’attivazione di una tossina ad attività tRNAsica, CdiA-CT, coinvolta nel sistema di inibizione della crescita da contatto (CDI) di ceppi patogeni di E. coli. In questo progetto abbiamo studiato il ruolo di CysK nel sistema CDI e la formazione di complessi con due differenti partner proteici: CdiA-CT e CysE (serina acetiltransferasi, l’enzima che catalizza la reazione precedente nella biosintesi dell...
