Notes

In Salmonella but not E. coli, low Mg(2+) PhoP-activated PmrD controls PmrA(BasR)/PmrB(BasS) activity post-translationally by binding to phospho-PmrA(BasR) and inhibiting its dephosphorylation but not its phosphotransfer, connecting the PhoPQ and PmrAB two-component systems and allowing for an amplified and persistent PmrAB response (Kato, 2007). E. coli pmrD is induced by low Mg(2+) in a PhoP-dependent manner, thus the E. coli prmD product itself is non-functional, as shown by the fact that replacing the E. coli chromosomal prmD with the Salmonella prmD confers the Salmonella low Mg(2+) response to E. coli (Winfield, 2004). Although PmrA represses pmrD transcription in Salmonella, pmrD is not regulated by pmrA in E. coli (Winfield, 2004). A Salmonella prmD mutation eliminates the polymyxin B resistance induced in low Mg(2+), and this defect is corrected by a complementing Salmonella prmD+ clone (Kox, 2000); prmD+ E. coli K-12 does not show low Mg(+2)-induced polymyxin B resistance at all (Kato, 2007). However, citing their unpublished results, Kox (2000) report that E. coli K-12 prmD can fully rescue the Salmonella prmD defect, and they conclude that prmD is function. Although this experimental result is not refuted, repeated or discussed in Kato (2007), it seems as if this unpublished observation has been retracted. PhoPQ regulon.[4]
