Project description:Permafrost soils are extreme environments that exert low-temperature, desiccation and starvation stress on bacteria over thousands to millions of years. To understand how Psychrobacter arcticus 273-4 survived for > 20,000 years in permafrost, transcriptome analysis was performed during growth at 22°C, 17°C, 0°C, and -6°C using a mixed effects ANOVA model. Genes for transcription, translation, energy production and most biosynthetic pathways were down-regulated at low temperatures. Evidence of isozyme exchange was detected over temperature for D-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidases (dac1 and dac2), DEAD-box RNA helicases (csdA and Psyc_0943) and energy efficient substrate incorporation pathways for ammonium and acetate. Specific functions were compensated by up-regulation at low temperature including genes for the biosynthesis of proline, tryptophan, methionine, and histidine. RNases and peptidases were generally up-regulated at low temperatures. Changes in energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and RNase gene expression were consistent with induction of the stringent response by relA activity. In contrast to results observed in other psychrophiles and mesophiles, only clpB and hsp33 were up-regulated at low temperature with no up-regulation of other chaperones and peptidyl-prolyl isomerases. Knockout mutants of relA, csdA, and dac2 were all deficient in low temperature growth, but a mutant in dac1 was deficient in growth at 17°C. The combined data suggest that the basal biological machinery including translation, transcription and energy metabolism are well adapted to function across the -6°C to 22°C growth range of P. arcticus and temperature compensation by gene expression was employed to address specific challenges to low-temperature growth. Cy-dye labelled cDNA populations were generated from total RNA extracted from mid-exponential growth phase cultures of Psychrobacter arcticus 273-4 grown at 22°C, 17°C (optimal growth rate), 0°C, and -6°C. All pairwise temperature comparisons were performed in this 4-level single factor experiment with dye swapping nested within biological replicate. Five biological replicates (20 samples totalled over all temperatures) were included in each comparison for a total of 30 hybridizations. Data were analyzed using R/MAANOVA with an ANOVA model which included gene, dye, biological replicate, slide, and growth temperature terms (with interactions). Spike-in mRNAs were included immediate following the cell lysis stage in order to serve as monitors for RNA degradation from lysis through hybridization.

Project description:In this study we analyse a gene expression dataset, obtained by microarray hybridization, consisting of T lymphocytes from 27 healthy monozygotic twin couples with ages ranging over whole adult lifespan (22 to 98 years). This peculiar experimental design, combined with a ridge regression approach, allowed us to define an optimal low-dimensional gene expression signature from which chronological age can be estimated. Our work identified for the first time a group of 125 genes whose expression can be considered a signature of physiologic T cell aging. This signature has been further validated in another dataset of samples of the same cell type, but hybridized over a different platform, showing a significantly good performance that confirmed the power of the chosen analysis design. Moreover, the same signature was applied on a publicly available dataset with an analogous time series design, but hybridized on a different platform and consisting of a different cell type (human muscle cells). The lower regression performance obtained in this case indicates that the signature is cell-type specific. 27 couples of monozygotic twins (54 subjects in total, homogeneously distributed in an age span from 22 to 98 years) were analysed.

Project description:Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) has recently gained prominence for its ability to provide molecular and spatial information in tissue sections. This technology has the potential to uncover novel insights into proteins and other molecules in biological and immunological pathways activated along diseases with a complex host-pathogen interaction, such as animal tuberculosis. Thus, the present study conducted a data analysis of protein signature in granulomas of cattle and pigs naturally infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC), identifying biological and immunological signalling pathways activated throughout the disease. Lymph nodes from four pigs and cattle, positive for MTC by bacteriological culture and/or real-time PCR, were processed for histopathological examination and MALDI-MSI. Protein identities were assigned using the MaTisse database, and protein-protein interaction networks were visualized using the STRING database. Gene ontology (GO) analysis was carried out to determine biological and immunological signalling pathways in which these proteins could participate together with KEGG analysis. Distinct proteomic profiles between cattle and pig granulomas were displayed. Noteworthy, the GO analysis revealed also common pathways among both species, such as “Complement activation, alternative pathway� and “Tricarboxylic acid cycle�, which highlights pathways that are conserved among different species infected by MTC. In addition, species-specific terms were identified in the current study, such as “Natural killer cell degranulation� in cattle or those related to platelet and neutrophils recruitment and activation in pigs. Overall, this study provides insights into the immunopathogenesis of tuberculosis in cattle and pigs, opening new areas of research and highlighting the importance, among others, of the complement activation pathway and the regulation of natural killer cell and neutrophil-mediated immunity in this disease.

Project description:We used trimethylpsoralen intercalation to map supercoiling across the E. coli chromosome. We treated E. coli cells with trimethylpsoralen and exposed them to UV light. Psoralen enters cells, intercalates between DNA base pairs, and crosslinks the two strands of DNA at a rate proportional to the local superhelical density. We then fragmented DNA and hybridized crosslinked and non-crosslinked DNA fragments separately to tiling microarrays. In total 14 samples; 6 for wild-type in stationary phase (3 replicates x 2 samples as there are crosslinked and non-crosslinked samples for each replicate); 4 for wild-type in mid-exponential phase (2 replicates x 2 samples); 4 for the delta hupAB mutant in stationary phase (2 replicates x 2 samples)

Project description:The Rv0805 gene in Mycobacterium tuberculosis encodes a metallophosphoesterase which shows cAMP-hydrolytic activity. Overexpression of Rv0805 has been used as a tool to lower intracellular cAMP levels and thereby elucidate the roles of cAMP in mycobacteria. Here we show that levels of cAMP in M. tuberculosis were lowered by only .30% following overexpression of Rv0805, and transcript levels of a number of genes, which include those associated with virulence and the methyl citrate cycle, were altered. The genes that showed altered expression were distinct from those differentially regulated in a strain deleted for the cAMP-receptor protein (CRP(Mt)), consistent with the relatively low dependence on cAMP of CRP(Mt) binding to DNA. Using mutants of Rv0805 we show that the transcriptional signature of Rv0805 overexpression is a combination of catalysis-dependent and independent effects, and that the structurally flexible C-terminus of Rv0805 is crucial for the catalysis-independent effects of the protein. Our study demonstrates the dissociation of Rv0805 and cAMP-regulated gene expression, and reveals alternate functions for this phosphodiesterase from M. tuberculosis.

Project description:The human pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, develops a dormant infection, in which organisms survive within the body. We established a unique in vitro dormancy model based on the characterization of drug-resistance to INH and rifampin. M. tuberculosis cells were maintained in controlled and defined multiple stress conditions with low oxygen (5% dissolved oxygen tension), acid (pH 5.) along with glycerol-deprived medium conditions. To monitor gene expression changes in M. tuberculosis in response to the multiple stresses, we performed microarray analysis at the time point of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12days after treatment. M. tuberculosis adapting to multiple stresses displayed characteristics associated with persistence in vivo, including entry into a non-replicative state and the repression of genes involved in energy regeneration. Under in vitro multiple-stresses, M. tuberculosis significantly modulated gene expression mainly in response to the starvation stresses. Cells exposed to these multiple stress conditions shows significant drug-resistance. Comparison with other in vivo expression profiles demonstrates induction of several common genes for in vitro dormancy conditions. Keywords: Stress response in time course. Samples under multiple stress condition were taken at day 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 for microarray hybridization. More than two technical replicates per biological samples with Cy3/5 dye-swaps.
