Quantitative Different Analysis of antimicrobial peptide LL37 expressed in E.coli Top 10 under aerobic and anaerobic condition.

ABSTRACT: We reported the transcriptional profiles of E.coli expressing antimicrobial peptide LL37 under stress response condition. 4 samples, two groups, one group is under aerobic condition, the other group is under anaerobic condition. One of samples is E.coli which expressed LL37 as induction in each group, another sample is E.coli with no LL37 expression in vivo as control in each group.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can cause lysis of target bacteria by directly inserting themselves into the lipid bilayer. This killing mechanism confounds the identification of the intracellular targets of AMPs. To circumvent this, we used a shuttle vector containing the inducible expression of a human cathelicidin-related AMP, LL-37, to examine its effect on Escherichia coli TOP10 under aerobic and anaerobic growth conditions. Induction of LL-37 caused growth inhibition and alteration in cell m ...[more]

Project description:We found that assassin bugs from the earliest-diverging subfamily of higher Reduviidae (Peiratinae), as well as a subfamily closely related to Triatominae (Stenopodainae) have venom that is highly similar in composition to that produced by previously examined reduviids from Harpactorinae and Reduviinae. This finding suggests that venom composition has been largely stable due to purifying selection among the higher Reduviidae, which is consistent with the ancient origin of venom in the ancestors of Heteroptera 250–300 million years ago (Sunagar and Moran 2015; Walker et al. 2018a). This near homogeneity of venom composition is perhaps surprising considering that reduviid predators have evolved numerous instances of prey specialization and specialized hunting strategies that might be expected to co-evolve with venom. Possibly, further studies focussing on species with more specialized hunting strategies, or different kinds of venom bioactivities, will uncover more nuanced venom adaptations. Alternatively, it is possible that the protease-rich venoms of predatory reduviids are simply well-suited to myriad different hunting strategies. These data are consistent with other examples where venoms are surprisingly similar despite great differences in biology, for example between solitary and eusocial bees. A more detailed picture of venom evolution in Reduviidae would examine venom produced by the early-diverging Phymatine complex as well as venoms of non-reduviid cimicomorphs, prey specialists such as the arachnophagous Emesinae and the myrmecophagous Holoptilinae, and some of the many groups that employ hunting specializations, such as the use of plant resins to catch prey (Hwang and Weirauch 2012). Within Triatominae, examination of saliva produced by additional species from multiple lineages (especially those that switched to blood-feeding independently, if the subfamily is shown to be polyphyletic) and including generalists and specialists on different host taxa and species associated especially with nests and burrows will be informative. The venoms of predatory reduviids such as Zelurus spp. and Opisthacidius spp. that are most closely related to Triatominae, and share some behaviours such as habitation of bird nests by Opisthacidius spp. may also provide more information about the evolution of triatomine saliva.
