Cyclo(Phe-Pro) is a bacterial quorum-sensing molecule that has been found in V. cholerae.1 It enhances ToxR-dependent transcription of leuO, a DNA binding protein, and inhibits virulence factor production in V. cholerae. Cyclo(Phe-Pro) is an inhibitor of the interaction between retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and the ubiquitin ligase TRIM25.2 It increases the viral load in Huh7 cells infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) when used at concentrations of 1, 2.5, and 5 mM. Cyclo(Phe-Pro) (50 mg/kg) reduces the expression of IFN-β induced by poly(I:C) and increases serum HCV titers in animal models of HCV infection.

Cyclo(Phe-Pro) produced by Vibrio species passes through biological membranes by simple diffusion
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2020 Aug;104(15):6791-6798.PMID:32533306DOI:10.1007/s00253-020-10646-4.
Cyclo(Phe-Pro) (cFP), produced by the Vibrio species, plays the dual roles of being a signaling molecule and a virulence factor. Acting modes of this compound have recently been characterized at the molecular level. Nevertheless, the method by which this compound passes across biological membranes remains obscure. Using radiolabeled cFP, we examined the kinetics of transport for this compound across membranes using V. vulnificus, Escherichia coli, and sheep red blood cells. We observed that cFP was taken up by these cells in a concentration-dependent manner and was not affected by the addition of the proton ionophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP), suggesting that cFP is taken up by passive transport. The kinetics of uptake of cFP by the above three types of cells revealed no significant differences, indicating that no specific protein is involved in this process. When the intracellular accumulation of cFP in the tested cells was measured, the concentrations did not exhibit significant differences between the 1-min and 10-min time points after cFP was added to the culture. In contrast, the intracellular concentration of fumarate, which is well known to be taken up by cells via active transport, was significantly higher at the 10-min than at the 1-min time point after addition. Taken together, this study shows that cFP is a diffusible molecule that does not require energy for transportation across biological membranes, and that cFP does not need membrane machinery in order to cross membranes and consequently act as a virulence factor or signal. KEY POINTS: • Kinetics of cFP uptake into cells of V. vulnificus, E. coli, or RBS was studied. • The uptake was not saturated and required no energy, indicating passive transport. • The lack of cell specificity in cFP uptake means no specific protein is needed. • Therefore, the cFP moves across the biological membrane by simple diffusion.
Unambiguous Stereochemical Assignment of Cyclo(Phe-Pro), Cyclo(Leu-Pro), and Cyclo(Val-Pro) by Electronic Circular Dichroic Spectroscopy
Molecules 2021 Oct 2;26(19):5981.PMID:34641525DOI:10.3390/molecules26195981.
2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs) are cyclic dipeptides ubiquitously found in nature. In particular, Cyclo(Phe-Pro), cyclo(Leu-Pro), and cyclo(Val-Pro) are frequently detected in many microbial cultures. Each of these DKPs has four possible stereoisomers due to the presence of two chirality centers. However, absolute configurations of natural DKPs are often ambiguous due to the lack of a simple, sensitive, and reproducible method for stereochemical assignment. This is an important problem because stereochemistry is a key determinant of biological activity. Here, we report a synthetic DKP library containing all stereoisomers of Cyclo(Phe-Pro), cyclo(Leu-Pro), and cyclo(Val-Pro). The library was subjected to spectroscopic characterization using mass spectrometry, NMR, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD). It turned out that ECD can clearly differentiate DKP stereoisomers. Thus, our ECD dataset can serve as a reference for unambiguous stereochemical assignment of Cyclo(Phe-Pro), cyclo(Leu-Pro), and cyclo(Val-Pro) samples from natural sources. The DKP library was also subjected to a biological screening using assays for E. coli growth and biofilm formation, which revealed distinct biological effects of cyclo(D-Phe-L-Pro).
Vibrio cholerae ToxR downregulates virulence factor production in response to Cyclo(Phe-Pro)
mBio 2013 Aug 27;4(5):e00366-13.PMID:23982069DOI:10.1128/mBio.00366-13.
Vibrio cholerae is an aquatic organism that causes the severe acute diarrheal disease cholera. The ability of V. cholerae to cause disease is dependent upon the production of two critical virulence determinants, cholera toxin (CT) and the toxin-coregulated pilus (TCP). The expression of the genes that encode for CT and TCP production is under the control of a hierarchical regulatory system called the ToxR regulon, which functions to activate virulence gene expression in response to in vivo stimuli. Cyclic dipeptides have been found to be produced by numerous bacteria, yet their biological function remains unknown. V. cholerae has been shown to produce Cyclo(Phe-Pro). Previous studies in our laboratory demonstrated that Cyclo(Phe-Pro) inhibited V. cholerae virulence factor production. For this study, we report on the mechanism by which Cyclo(Phe-Pro) inhibited virulence factor production. We have demonstrated that exogenous Cyclo(Phe-Pro) activated the expression of leuO, a LysR-family regulator that had not been previously associated with V. cholerae virulence. Increased leuO expression repressed aphA transcription, which resulted in downregulation of the ToxR regulon and attenuated CT and TCP production. The cyclo(Phe-Pro)-dependent induction of leuO expression was found to be dependent upon the virulence regulator ToxR. Cyclo(Phe-Pro) did not affect toxR transcription or ToxR protein levels but appeared to enhance the ToxR-dependent transcription of leuO. These results have identified leuO as a new component of the ToxR regulon and demonstrate for the first time that ToxR is capable of downregulating virulence gene expression in response to an environmental cue. Importance: The ToxR regulon has been a focus of cholera research for more than three decades. During this time, a model has emerged wherein ToxR functions to activate the expression of Vibrio cholerae virulence factors upon host entry. V. cholerae and other enteric bacteria produce Cyclo(Phe-Pro), a cyclic dipeptide that we identified as an inhibitor of V. cholerae virulence factor production. This finding suggested that Cyclo(Phe-Pro) was a negative effector of virulence factor production and represented a molecule that could potentially be exploited for therapeutic development. In this work, we investigated the mechanism by which Cyclo(Phe-Pro) inhibited virulence factor production. We found that Cyclo(Phe-Pro) signaled through ToxR to activate the expression of leuO, a new virulence regulator that functioned to repress virulence factor production. Our results have identified a new arm of the ToxR regulon and suggest that ToxR may play a broader role in pathogenesis than previously known.
Vibrio vulnificus quorum-sensing molecule Cyclo(Phe-Pro) inhibits RIG-I-mediated antiviral innate immunity
Nat Commun 2018 Apr 23;9(1):1606.PMID:29686409DOI:10.1038/s41467-018-04075-1.
The recognition of pathogen-derived ligands by pattern recognition receptors activates the innate immune response, but the potential interaction of quorum-sensing (QS) signaling molecules with host anti-viral defenses remains largely unknown. Here we show that the Vibrio vulnificus QS molecule Cyclo(Phe-Pro) (cFP) inhibits interferon (IFN)-β production by interfering with retinoic-acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) activation. Binding of cFP to the RIG-I 2CARD domain induces a conformational change in RIG-I, preventing the TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination to abrogate IFN production. cFP enhances susceptibility to hepatitis C virus (HCV), as well as Sendai and influenza viruses, each known to be sensed by RIG-I but did not affect the melanoma-differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5)-recognition of norovirus. Our results reveal an inter-kingdom network between bacteria, viruses and host that dysregulates host innate responses via a microbial quorum-sensing molecule modulating the response to viral infection.
Cyclo(Phe-Pro) produced by the human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus inhibits host innate immune responses through the NF-κB pathway
Infect Immun 2015 Mar;83(3):1150-61.PMID:25561711DOI:10.1128/IAI.02878-14.
Cyclo(Phe-Pro) (cFP) is a secondary metabolite produced by certain bacteria and fungi. Although recent studies highlight the role of cFP in cell-to-cell communication by bacteria, its role in the context of the host immune response is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the role of cFP produced by the human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus in the modulation of innate immune responses toward the pathogen. cFP suppressed the production of proinflammatory cytokines, nitric oxide, and reactive oxygen species in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated monocyte/macrophage cell line and in bone marrow-derived macrophages. Specifically, cFP inhibited inhibitory κB (IκB) kinase (IKK) phosphorylation, IκBα degradation, and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) translocation to the cell nucleus, indicating that cFP affects the NF-κB pathway. We searched for genes that are responsible for cFP production in V. vulnificus and identified VVMO6_03017 as a causative gene. A deletion of VVMO6_03017 diminished cFP production and decreased virulence in subcutaneously inoculated mice. In summary, cFP produced by V. vulnificus actively suppresses the innate immune responses of the host, thereby facilitating its survival and propagation in the host environment.
