Mycobacterium tuberculosis evades the innate antimicrobial defenses of macrophages by inhibiting the maturation of its phagosome to a bactericidal phagolysosome. Despite intense studies of the mycobacterial phagosome, the mechanism of mycobacterial persistence dependent on prolonged phagosomal retention of the coat protein coronin-1 is still unclear. The present study demonstrated that several mycobacterial proteins traffic intracellularly in M. bovis BCG-infected cells and that one of them, with an apparent subunit size of M(r) 50,000, actively retains coronin-1 on the phagosomal membrane. This protein was initially termed coronin-interacting protein (CIP)50 and was shown to be also expressed by M. tuberculosis but not by the non-pathogenic species M. smegmatis. Cell-free system experiments using a GST-coronin-1 construct showed that binding of CIP50 to coronin-1 required cholesterol. Thereafter, mass spectrometry sequencing identified mycobacterial lipoamide dehydrogenase C (LpdC) as a coronin-1 binding protein. M. smegmatis over-expressing Mtb LpdC protein acquired the capacity to maintain coronin-1 on the phagosomal membrane and this prolonged its survival within the macrophage. Importantly, IFNgamma-induced phagolysosome fusion in cells infected with BCG resulted in the dissociation of the LpdC-coronin-1 complex by a mechanism dependent, at least in part, on IFNgamma-induced LRG-47 expression. These findings provide further support for the relevance of the LpdC-coronin-1 interaction in phagosome maturation arrest.
