Elucidation of Sigma Factor-Associated Networks in Reveals a Modular Architecture with Limited and Function-Specific Crosstalk
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is well known for its high adaptability to a large range of environmental conditions, including those encountered within the human host. Transcription initiation represents a major regulatory target which drives versatility, and enables bacterial adaptation to challenging conditions and expression of virulence and pathogenicity. In bacteria, this process is largely orchestrated by sigma factors. Here, we performed an integrative approach, and by the combined use of three global profiling technologies uncovered the networks of 10 alternative sigma factors in the opportunistic pathogen P. aeruginosa. We demonstrate that these networks largely represent self-contained functional modules which exhibit a limited but highly specific crosstalk to build up higher-level functions. Our results do not only give extensive information on sigma factor binding sites throughout the P. aeruginosa genome, but also advance the understanding of sigma factor network architecture which provides bacteria with a framework to function adequately in their environment.
