ABSTRACT The physiological role of protein O-glycosylation in prokaryotes is poorly understood due to our limited knowledge of the extent of their glycoproteomes. In Actinobacteria, defects in protein O-mannosyl transferase (Pmt)-mediated protein O-glycosylation have been shown to significantly reta...

In Actinobacteria, defects in protein O-mannosyl transferase (Pmt)-mediated protein O-glycosylation have been shown to significantly retard growth (Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Corynebacterium glutamicum) or result in increased sensitivities to cell wall-targeting antibiotics (Streptomyces coelicolor), suggesting that protein O-glycosylation has an important role in cell physiology. Only a single glycoprotein (SCO4142, or PstS) has been identified to date in S. coelicolor. Combining biochemical and mass spectrometry-based approaches, we have isolated and characterized the membrane glycoproteome in S. coelicolor. A total of ninety-five high-confidence glycopeptides were identified which mapped to thirty-seven new S. coelicolor glycoproteins and a deeper understanding of glycosylation sites in PstS. Glycosylation sites were found to be modified with up to three hexose residues, consistent with what has been observed previously in other Actinobacteria. S. coelicolor glycoproteins have diverse roles and functions, including solute binding, polysaccharide hydrolases, ABC transporters, and cell wall biosynthesis, the latter being of potential relevance to the antibiotic-sensitive phenotype of pmt mutants. Null mutants in genes encoding a putative d-Ala-d-Ala carboxypeptidase (SCO4847) and an l,d-transpeptidase (SCO4934) were hypersensitive to cell wall-targeting antibiotics. Additionally, the sco4847 mutants displayed an increased susceptibility to lysozyme treatment. These findings strongly suggest that both glycoproteins are required for maintaining cell wall integrity and that glycosylation could be affecting enzyme function.
