A teichuronopeptide (TUP) is one of major structural components of the cell wall of the facultative alkaliphilic strain Bacillus lentus C-125. A mutant defective in TUP synthesis grows slowly at alkaline pH. It is a highly acidic copolymer composed exclusively of two polymers,one consisting of uronic acids and the other consisting of acidic amino acids. The TUP encoded by gene tupA of strain C-125 is a copolymer of polyglutamic acid (PGlu) and polyglucuronic acid (PGlcU).

C125-TupA

Gene tupA was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of facultative alkaliphilic strain Bacillus lentus C-125. The primary translation product of this gene, TupA, is likely a cytoplasmic protein(57.3 kDa) consisting of 489 amino acid residues.It was demonstrated that TupA is involved in the synthesis of TUP,a copolymer of polyglutamic acid (PGlu) and polyglucuronic acid (PGlcU),which is one of major structural components in the cell wall of the Bacillus lentus C-125 and can neutralize the extracellular hydroxyl. A mutant defective in TUP synthesis grows slowly at alkaline pH,indicating this gene plays a key role in pH homeostasis and increases the alkali resistance of Bacteria.
