Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Catabolite Control Protein A Regulatory Mechanisms Underlying Glucose-Excess or -Limited Conditions in a Ruminal Bacterium, Streptococcus bovis

Ruminants may suffer from rumen acidosis when fed with high-concentrate diets due to the higher proliferation and overproduction of lactate by Streptococcus bovis. The catabolite control protein A (CcpA) regulates the transcription of lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) and pyruvate formate-lyase (pfl) in S...

description Ruminants may suffer from rumen acidosis when fed with high-concentrate diets due to the higher proliferation and overproduction of lactate by Streptococcus bovis. The catabolite control protein A (CcpA) regulates the transcription of lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) and pyruvate formate-lyase (pfl) in S. bovis, but its role in response to different carbon concentrations remains unclear. To characterize the regulatory mechanisms of CcpA in S. bovis S1 at different levels of carbon, herein, we analyzed the transcriptomic and physiological characteristics of S. bovis S1 and its ccpA mutant strain grown in glucose-excess and glucose-limited conditions. A reduced growth rate and a shift in fermentation pattern from homofermentation to heterofermentation were observed under glucose-limited condition as compared to glucose-excess condition, in S. bovis S1. Additionally, the inactivation of ccpA significantly affected the growth and end metabolites in both conditions. For the glycolytic intermediate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP), the concentration significantly reduced at lower glucose conditions; its concentration decreased significantly in the ccpA mutant strain. Transcriptomic results showed that about 46% of the total genes were differentially transcribed between the wild-type strain and ccpA mutant strain grown in glucose-excess conditions; while only 12% genes were differentially transcribed in glucose-limited conditions.
