| Abstract | Resistance to high concentration of nickel ions is mediated in Cupriavidus metallidurans by the CnrCBA transenvelope efflux complex. Expression of the cnrCBA genes is regulated by the transmembrane signal transduction complex CnrYXH. Together, the metal sensor CnrX and the transmembrane antisigma factor CnrY control the availability of the extracytoplasmic function sigma factor CnrH. Release of CnrH from sequestration by CnrY at the cytoplasmic side of the membrane depends essentially on the binding of the agonist metal ion Ni(II) to the periplasmic metal sensor domain of CnrX. CnrH availability leads to transcription initiation at the promoters cnrYp and cnrCp and to the expression of the genes in the cnrYXHCBA nickel resistance determinant. The first steps of signal propagation by CnrX rely on subtle metal-dependent allosteric modifications. To study the nickel-mediated triggering process by CnrX, we have altered selected residues, F66, M123, and Y135, and explored the physiological consequences of these changes with respect to metal resistance, expression of a cnrCBA-lacZ reporter fusion and protein production. M123C- and Y135F-CnrXs have been further characterized in vitro by metal affinity measurements and crystallographic structure analysis. Atomic-resolution structures of metal-bound M123C- and Y135F-CnrXs showed that Ni(II) binds two of the three canonical conformations identified and that Ni(II) sensing likely proceeds by conformation selection. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
