The promiscuous biotin ligase TurboID reveals the proxisome of the T3SS chaperone IpgC in Shigella flexneri.
Promiscuous biotin ligases derived from the bacterial enzyme BirA are used to identify proteins vicinal to a bait protein, thereby defining its proxisome. Despite the popularity of this approach, surprisingly little is known about its use in prokaryotes. Here, we compared the activity of four widely used promiscuous biotin ligases in the cytoplasm of Shigella flexneri, a pathogenic subgroup of Escherichia coli. Our data indicate that the kinetics of TurboID's biotinylating activity is the highest of those tested. In addition, TurboID showed reduced interaction with the natural BirA binding partners, BccP and the biotin operator, when compared to its ancestor BioID. We therefore evaluated the ability of TurboID to probe the proxisome of the type III secretion system (T3SS) chaperone IpgC and the transcriptional activator MxiE. When the T3SS is inactive (off-state), these proteins are inhibited by forming complexes with the T3SS substrates OspD1 and IpaBC, respectively. In contrast, when the T3SS is active (on-state), OspD1 and IpaBC are secreted allowing MxiE and IpgC to interact together and activate their target genes. The results obtained with the IpgC and TurboID fusions capture a good fraction of these known interactions. It also suggests that the availability of IpgC increases in the on-state, resulting in a greater number of proteins detected in its vicinity. Among these is the T3SS ATPase SpaL (also known as Spa47 or SctN), further supporting the notion that chaperones escort their substrate to the T3SS.
