Posttranscriptional regulation of certain virulence-related genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is brought about by RsmA, a small RNA-binding protein. During interaction with airway epithelial cells, RsmA promoted actin depolymerization, cytotoxicity, and anti-internalization of P. aeruginosa by positively regulating the virulence-associated type III secretion system.
铜绿假单胞菌中某些毒力相关基因的转录后调控是由一种小RNA结合蛋白RsmA实现的。在与气道上皮细胞相互作用的过程中,RsmA通过正向调控与毒力相关的III型分泌系统,促进了肌动蛋白解聚、细胞毒性以及铜绿假单胞菌的抗内化作用。
