Enteric pathogens such as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium experience spatial and temporal changes to the metabolic landscape throughout infection. Host reactive oxygen and nitrogen species non-enzymatically convert monosaccharides to alpha hydroxy acids, including L-tartrate. Salmonella utilizes L-tartrate early during infection to support fumarate respiration, while L-tartrate utilization ceases at later time points due to the increased availability of exogenous electron acceptors such as tetrathionate, nitrate, and oxygen. It remains unknown how Salmonella regulates its gene expression to metabolically adapt to changing nutritional environments. Here, we investigated how the transcriptional regulation for L-tartrate metabolism in Salmonella is influenced by infection-relevant cues. L-tartrate induces the transcription of ttdBAU, genes involved in L-tartrate utilization. L-tartrate metabolism is negatively regulated by two previously uncharacterized transcriptional regulators TtdV (STM3357) and TtdW (STM3358), and both TtdV and TtdW are required for sensing of L-tartrate. The electron acceptors nitrate, tetrathionate, and oxygen repress ttdBAU transcription via the two-component system ArcAB. Furthermore, regulation of L-tartrate metabolism is required for optimal fitness in a mouse model of Salmonella-induced colitis. TtdV, TtdW, and ArcAB allow for the integration of two cues, substrate availability and availability of exogenous electron acceptors, to control L-tartrate metabolism. Our findings provide novel insights into how Salmonella prioritizes utilization of different electron acceptors for respiration as it experiences transitional nutrient availability throughout infection.
