A riboswitch regulates expression of the coenzyme B12-independent methionine synthase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: implications for differential methionine synthase function in strains H37Rv and CDC1551.

Abstract

We observed vitamin B(12)-mediated growth inhibition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551. The B(12) sensitivity was mapped to a polymorphism in metH, encoding a coenzyme B(12)-dependent methionine synthase. Vitamin B(12)-resistant suppressor mutants of CDC1551 containing mutations in a B(12) riboswitch upstream of the metE gene, which encodes a B(12)-independent methionine synthase, were isolated. Expression analysis confirmed that the B(12) riboswitch is a transcriptional regulator of metE in M. tuberculosis.
