Title |
A global data-driven census of Salmonella small proteins and their potential functions in bacterial virulence |
Organism |
Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium str. SL1344 |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
Small proteins are an emerging class of gene products with diverse roles in bacterial physiology. However, a full understanding of their importance has been hampered by insufficient genome annotations and a lack of characterization in microbes other than Escherichia coli. Here, we have taken an integrative approach to accelerate the discovery of small proteins and their putative virulence-associated functions in Salmonella Typhimurium. We merged the annotated small proteome of Salmonella with new small proteins predicted with in silico and experimental approaches. We then exploited existing and newly generated global datasets that provide information on small open reading frame expression during infection of epithelial cells (dual RNA-seq), contribution to bacterial fitness inside macrophages (TraDIS), and potential engagement in molecular interactions (Grad-seq). This integrative approach suggested a new role for the small protein MgrB beyond its known function in regulating PhoQ. We demonstrated a virulence and motility defect of a Salmonella ΔmgrB mutant and revealed an effect of MgrB in regulating the Salmonella transcriptome and proteome under infection-relevant conditions. Overall, our study highlights the power of interpreting available “omics” datasets with a focus on small proteins, and may serve as a blueprint for a data integration-based survey of small proteins in diverse bacteria.
