Microbial extracellular proteins and metabolites provide valuable information concerning how microbes adapt to changing environments. In cyanobacteria, dynamic acclimation strategies involve a variety of regulatory mechanisms, being ferric uptake regulator proteins as key players in this process. In the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120, FurC (PerR) is a global regulator that modulates the peroxide response and several genes involved in photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism. To investigate the possible role of FurC in shaping the extracellular environment of Anabaena, the analysis of the extracellular metabolites and proteins of a furC-overexpressing variant was compared to that of the wild-type strain. There were 96 differentially abundant proteins, 78 of which were found for the first time in the extracellular fraction of Anabaena. While these proteins belong to different functional categories, most of them are predicted to be secreted or have a peripheral location. Several stress-related proteins, including PrxA, flavodoxin, and the Dps homolog All1173, accumulated in the exoproteome of furC-overexpressing cells, while decreased levels of FurA and a subset of membrane proteins, including several export proteins and amiC gene products, responsible for nanopore formation, were detected. Direct repression by FurC of some of those genes, including amiC1 and amiC2, could account for odd septal nanopore formation and impaired intercellular molecular transfer observed in the furC-overexpressing variant. Assessment of the exometabolome from both strains revealed the release of two peptidoglycan fragments in furC-overexpressing cells, namely 1,6-anhydro-N-acetyl-β-D-muramic acid (anhydroMurNAc) and its associated disaccharide (β-D-GlcNAc-(1-4)-anhydroMurNAc), suggesting alterations in peptidoglycan breakdown and recycling.
