Symbiosis between Rhizobium and its leguminous host requires elaborate communication between the partners throughout the interaction process. A calmodulin-like protein, termed calsymin, was identified in Rhizobium etli; a calmodulin-related protein in a Gram-negative bacterium had not been described previously. Calsymin possesses three repeated homologous domains. Each domain contains two predicted EF-hand Ca(2+)-binding motifs. Ca(2+)-binding activity of calsymin was demonstrated on purified protein. R. etli efficiently secretes calsymin without N-terminal cleavage of the protein. The gene encoding calsymin, casA, is exclusively expressed during colonization and infection of R. etli with the host. Expression of casA is controlled by a repressor protein, termed CasR, belonging to the TetR family of regulatory proteins. Mutation of the casA gene affects the development of bacteroids during symbiosis and symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
