Changes in the outer membrane subproteome of Escherichia coli along the transition to the viable but nonculturable state (VBNC) were studied. The VBNC state was triggered by exposure of E. coli cells to adverse conditions such as aquatic systems, starvation, suboptimal temperature, visible light irradiation and seawater. The subproteome, obtained according to Molloy et al., was analysed at the beginning of exposure (inoculum, phase 1), after a variable exposure time (95% of population culturable, phase 2) and when populations were mainly in the VBNC state (95% of cells VBNC, phase 3). Proteome changes were dependent on adverse conditions inducing the transition and were detected mainly in phase 2. The permanence of E. coli cells in seawater under illumination conditions entailed a dramatic rearrangement of the outer membrane subproteome involving 106 new spots, some of which could be identified by peptide fingerprinting. However, proteins exclusive to the VBNC state were not detected.
