Abstract

AbstractTwo-component systems (TCSs), consisting of a histidine kinase (HK) and a response regulator, serve signal transduction in bacteria, often regulating transcription in response to environmental stimuli. Here, we identify a tandem serine histidine kinase function for KdpD, previously described as a HK of the TCS KdpDE, which controls production of the K+pump KdpFABC. We show that KdpD additionally mediates an inhibitory serine phosphorylation of KdpFABC at high K+levels, using not its C-terminal HK domain but an N-terminal atypical serine kinase (ASK) domain. Sequence analysis of KdpDs from different species highlights that some KdpDs comprise solely ASK and Usp domains. We show that, whileEscherichia coliKdpD’s ASK responds directly to K+levels, a shorter version fromDeinococcus geothermalisis controlled by second messenger cyclic di-AMP. Our findings add to the growing functional diversity of sensor kinases while simultaneously expanding the framework for regulatory mechanisms in bacterial K+homeostasis.
