Abstract

Despite many years of intense work investigating the function of nucleoid‐associated proteins in prokaryotes, their role in bacterial physiology remains largely unknown. The two‐dimensional protein patterns were compared and expression profiling was carried out on H‐NS‐deficient and wild‐type strains of Escherichia coli K‐12. The expression of approximately 5% of the genes and/or the accumulation of their protein was directly or indirectly altered in the hns mutant strain. About one‐fifth of these genes encode proteins that are involved in transcription or translation and one‐third are known to or were in silico predicted to encode cell envelope components or proteins that are usually involved in bacterial adaptation to changes in environmental conditions. The increased expression of several genes in the mutant resulted in a better ability of this strain to survive at low pH and high osmolarity than the wild‐type strain. In particular, the putative regulator, YhiX, plays a central role in the H‐NS control of genes required in the glutamate‐dependent acid stress response. These results suggest that there is a strong relationship between the H‐NS regulon and the maintenance of intracellular homeostasis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
