6S RNA is involved in acid resistance and invasion of epithelial cells in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.
Future Microbiology 2017 September
AIM: Acid is an important environmental condition encountered frequently by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium during its pathogenesis, but the role of small-noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) in response to acid stress is poorly understood.
METHODS: We used RNA sequencing to explore acid-responsive sRNAs in S. Typhimurium.
RESULTS: It identified that 6S RNA encoded by the ssrS was significantly upregulated at pH 3.0. The 6S RNA knockout strain showed a reduced ability to survive at pH 3.0. Additionally, genes in Salmonella pathogenicity island-1 were downregulated in the 6S RNA knockout strain. The loss of 6S RNA significantly reduced S. Typhimurium invasion ability in HeLa cells and virulence in a mouse model.
CONCLUSION: These findings demonstrate that 6S RNA plays an important role in S. Typhimurium survival under extremely acid conditions and for invasion of epithelial cells.
