In response to a given stimulus, a sensory kinase activates its cognate response regulator via reversible phosphorylation. The response regulator DevR activates a state of dormancy under hypoxia in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, allowing this pathogen to escape the host defense system. Here, we show that OsdR (SCO0204) of the soil bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor is a functional orthologue of DevR. OsdR, when activated by the sensory kinase OsdK (SCO0203), binds upstream of the DevR-controlled dormancy genes devR, hspX, and Rv3134c of M. tuberculosis. In silico analysis of the S. coelicolor genome combined with in vitro DNA binding studies identified many binding sites in the genomic region around osdR itself and upstream of stress-related genes. This binding correlated well with transcriptomic responses, with deregulation of developmental genes and genes related to stress and hypoxia in the osdR mutant. A peak in osdR transcription in the wild-type strain at the onset of aerial growth correlated with major changes in global gene expression. Taken together, our data reveal the existence of a dormancy-related regulon in streptomycetes which plays an important role in the transcriptional control of stress- and development-related genes. IMPORTANCE Dormancy is a state of growth cessation that allows bacteria to escape the host defense system and antibiotic challenge. Understanding the mechanisms that control dormancy is of key importance for the treatment of latent infections, such as those from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In mycobacteria, dormancy is controlled by the response regulator DevR, which responds to conditions of hypoxia. Here, we show that OsdR of Streptomyces coelicolor recognizes the same regulatory element and controls a regulon that consists of genes involved in the control of stress and development. Only the core regulon in the direct vicinity of dosR and osdR is conserved between M. tuberculosis and S. coelicolor, respectively. Thus, we show how the system has diverged from allowing escape from the host defense system by mycobacteria to the control of sporulation by complex multicellular streptomycetes. This provides novel insights into how bacterial growth and development are coordinated with the environmental conditions.Mia UremTeunke van RossumGiselda BuccaGeri F. MoolenaarEmma LaingMagda A.
