The stressosome consists of multiple copies of three proteins RsbR, RsbS and RsbT, a kinase that is important for its activation. Using cryo-electron microscopy, we determined the atomic organization of the Listeria monocytogenes stressosome at 3.38 A resolution. RsbR and RsbS are organized in a 60-protomers truncated icosahedron. A key phosphorylation site on RsbR (T209) is partially hidden by an RsbR flexible loop, whose "open" or "closed" position could modulate stressosome activity. Interaction between three glutamic acids in the N-terminal domain of RsbR and the membrane-bound mini-protein Prli42 is essential for Listeria survival to stress. Together, our data provide the atomic model of the stressosome core and highlight a loop important for stressosome activation, paving the way towards elucidating the mechanism of signal transduction by the stressosome in bacteria. The cryo-electron microscopy supramolecular structure of the bacterial stressosome unveils its mechanism of activation.,Williams AH, Redzej A, Rolhion N, Costa TRD, Rifflet A, Waksman G, Cossart P Nat Commun. 2019 Jul 8;10(1):3005. doi: 10.1038/s41467-019-10782-0.
