Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum(Pcc) is a Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacterium that produces carocin, a low-molecular-weight bacteriocin that can kill related strains in response to factors in the environment such as UV exposure or nutritional deficiency. The function of the catabolite activator protein (CAP), also known as the cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP), as a regulator of carocin synthesis was examined. Thecrpgene was knocked out as part of the investigation, and the outcomes were assessed both in vivo and in vitro. Analysis of the DNA sequence upstream of the translation initiation site of carocin S3 revealed two putative binding sites for CRP that were confirmed using a biotinylated probe pull-down experiment. This study revealed that the deletion ofcrpinhibited genes involved in extracellular bacteriocin export via the flagellar type III secretion system and impacted the production of many low-molecular-weight bacteriocins. The biotinylated probe pull-down test demonstrated that when UV induction was missing, CRP preferentially attached to one of the two CAP sites while binding to both when UV induction was present. In conclusion, our research aimed to simulate the signal transduction system that controls the expression of the carocin gene in response to UV induction.
