Staphylococcus aureus treated with fosfomycin

ABSTRACT: Staphylococcus aureus is a highly adaptable human pathogen; therefore a constant search for new effective antibiotic compounds is being preformed. Gene expression profiling can be used to determine potential targets and mechanisms of action (MOA) of known or potential drugs. The goal of our study was a development of a focused transcriptome platform to be used for confirming the MOA of new chemical entities which are designed as inhibitors of Mur ligases. A model transcriptional profile was set up for well described inhibitor of MurA ligase, fosfomycin. Moreover, we wanted to identify the pathways and processes primarily affected by this compound. S. aureus ATCC 29213 cells were treated with low concentrations of fosfomycin (1 and 4 Âµg/ml, respectively) and harvested at 10, 20 and 40 minutes after treatment, respectively. RNA was isolated, transcribed, labeled and hybridized to S. aureus GeneChips, representing approximately 3000 S. aureus genes. Using meta-analysis of our results and the results in the S. aureus microarray database, we have confirmed that fosfomycin induces âcell wall stimulonâ genes and were able to identify genes and pathways specifically modulated by fosfomycin. Time course, different fosfomycin concentration

Gene expression profile analysis of Staphylococcus aureus treated with nisin

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) has already to be one of the most commonly identified bacteria that cause food poisoning. S. aureus colonization in humans can cause serious infections, toxinoses and life threatening diseases. The bacteriocin nisin has been extensively used as potential natural preservative in the food industry, but the overall transcriptional response mechanisms of S. aureus to nisin are still poorly understood. To detect the possible molecular mechanism of nisin against S. aureus, Affymetrix GeneChips were used to determine the global comparative transcription of S. aureus cells triggered by treatment with sub-inhibitory concentrations of nisin. Staphylococcus aureus planktonic cells were exposed for 60 minutes to nisin at concentration of 4 M-NM-<g/ml (1/2M-CM-^W MIC). 2 samples including 2 control samples are analyzed.

Phenotype and expression profile analysis of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms and planktonic cells in response to Licochalcone A

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the most important pathogens in humans and animals. The formation of S. aureus biofilm is considered an important mechanism of antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, finding effective drugs against the biofilm produced by S. aureus has been a high priority. Licochalcone A, a natural plant product, was reported to have antibacterial activities and showed good activity against all 21 tested strains of S. aureus biofilm and planktonic cells. To detect the possible molecular mechanism of Licochalcone A against S. aureus biofillm or planktonic cells, Affymetrix GeneChips were used to determine the global comparative transcription of S. aureus biofilm and planktonic cells triggered by treatment with sub-bactericidal and sub-inhibitory concentrations of Licochalcone A, respectively. Staphylococcus aureus planktonic cells and biofilm were exposed for 60 minutes to Licochalcone A at concentration of 2 M-NM-<g/ml (1/2M-CM-^W MIC) and 64 M-NM-<g/ml (4M-CM-^W MIBC), respectively. 4 samples including 4 control samples are analyzed.

Comparison of gene expression in Staphylococcus aureus strain SH1000 wildtype vs mepR

Project description:MepR is a substrate-responsive repressor of mepR and mepA, which encode itself and a MATE family multidrug efflux pump. Microarray analyses of Staphylococcus aureus SH1000 and its mepR-disrupted derivative revealed changes in expression of many genes in addition to mepR and mepA, notably several involved in virulence Keywords: Staphylococcus aureus, MATE efflux pump, MepR Staphylococcus aureus strains SH1000 wildtype and mepR were grown in duplicate to exponential and post-exponential phase (corresponding to an A550 nm of 0/4 and 2.0 respectively). RNA was harvested, converted to cDNA, labelled with Biotin and used to probe custom-designed Affymetrix antisense S.aureus GeneChips. Eight samples in total were prepared and analyzed.

An antibiotic that inhibits a late step in wall teichoic acid biosynthesis induces the cell wall stress stimulon in Staphylococcus aureus

Project description:Wall teichoic acids (WTAs) are phosphate-rich, sugar-based polymers attached to the cell walls of most Gram-positive bacteria. In Staphylococcus aureus, these anionic polymers regulate cell division, protect cells from osmotic stress, mediate host colonization, and mask enzymatically susceptible peptidoglycan bonds. Although WTAs are not required for survival in vitro, blocking the pathway at a late stage of synthesis is lethal. We recently discovered a novel antibiotic, targocil, that inhibits a late acting step in the WTA pathway. Its target is TarG, the transmembrane component of the ABC transporter (TarGH) that exports WTAs to the cell surface. Here we examine the effects of targocil on S. aureus using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and gene expression profiling. We report that targocil treatment leads to multicellular clusters containing swollen cells displaying evidence of osmotic stress, strongly induces the cell wall stress stimulon, and reduces the expression of key virulence genes, including dltABCD and capsule genes. We conclude that WTA inhibitors that act at a late stage of the biosynthetic pathway may be useful as antibiotics, and we present evidence that they could be particularly useful in combination with beta-lactams. Growth conditions for microarray analysis-For transcriptional profiling, an overnight S. aureus SH1000 culture was diluted (2% (v/v) into 20 mL TSB medium in a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask and grown at 37 Â°C with shaking at 200 rpm. For the targocil treatment experiments, S. aureus was grown to an OD600 ~0.4 and challenged with 8x MIC of targocil dissolved in DMSO) for 30 min. Simultaneously, an equal amount of DMSO (final concentration 2% (v/v)) was added to the control culture, which was incubated along with the treated cultures. After 30 min, 5 mL aliquots were collected from control and treated cultures and used for toatl RNA preparation.
