Project description:In order to gain coherent insights into plant responses we performed transcriptional analysis of Arabidopsis seedling after treatment with three different AHLs: N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL), N-3-oxo-decanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (oxo-C10-HSL), and N-3-oxo-tetradecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (oxo-C14-HSL). Furthermore, we analyzed the transcriptome of oxo-C14-HSL pretreated plants after a secondary challenge with 100 nM flg22 for 2 and 24 hours after treatment.

Project description:Quorum-sensing (QS) is a cell-cell communication system that controls gene expression in many bacterial species, mediated by diffusible signal molecules. While the intracellular regulatory mechanisms of QS are often well-understood, the functional roles of QS remain controversial. In particular, the use of multiple signals by many bacterial species poses a serious challenge to current functional theories. Here we address this challenge by showing that bacteria can use multiple QS signals to infer both their social (density) and physical (mass-transfer) environment. Analytical and evolutionary simulation models show that the detection of and response to complex social/physical contrasts requires multiple signals with distinct half-lives and combinatorial (non-additive) responses to signal concentrations. We test these predictions using the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and demonstrate significant differences in signal decay between its two primary signal molecules as well as diverse combinatorial responses to dual signal inputs. QS is associated with the control of secreted factors, and we show that secretome genes are preferentially controlled by synergistic M-bM-^@M-^XAND-gateM-bM-^@M-^Y responses to multiple signal inputs, ensuring the effective expression of secreted factors in high density and low mass-transfer environments. Our results support a novel functional hypothesis for the use of multiple signals and, more generally, show that bacteria are capable of combinatorial communication. The two primary signal molecules of P. aeruginosa are the homoserine lactones N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C12-HSL) and N-butyryl-homoserine lactone (C4-HSL). Effects of the different signal molecules was assessed using a double QS synthase mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 lasI/rhlI grown at 37M-BM-0C in 25 ml LB broth and 250 ml flasks with shaking at 200 r.p.m. in four treatments, each with a replicate: (a) no addition; (b) 3-oxo- C12-HSL; (c) C4-HSL; and (d) both 3-oxo-C12-HSL and C4-HSL.

Project description:We examined whether the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae can sense chemical signals from prokaryotes, specifically a variety of quorum sensing molecules from different bacteria species and from Candida albicans. We found that only N-acyl-3-oxo-dodecanoyl homoserine lactone (C12) from the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa induces a stress response in yeast. Microarray experiments were performed in order to continue investigating the stress response. We treated S. cerevesiae (WT strain W303) with N-(3-oxo-dodecanoyl) homoserine lactone (C12), a quorum sensing molecule of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which we found causes a stress response using a GFP reporter for HSP-12. Treatment conditions: 100 uM C12, 100 uM C12-lactam (control: synthetic analogue of C12 that is inactive in P. aeruginosa), DMSO (control: solvent), and 0.3 mM H2O2 (for comparison to oxidative stress).

Project description:Yersinia pestis, the etiological agent of plague, is able to sense cell density by quorum sensing. The function of quorum sensing in Y. pestis is not clear. Here, the process of quorum sensing was investigated by comparing transcript profiles when three quorum-sensing signals are added in. The strain M-bM-^HM-^Fpgm (pigmentation-negative) mutant R88 was used as wild type. The three signals are AI-2, AHLs (N-(3-Oxooctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone and N-Hexanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone).The control consisted of cells grown and treated under the same conditions without added signals. Six independent RNA samples from Y. pestis CO92 M-bM-^HM-^Fpgm cultures were paired with six independent RNA samples from 3 signals added cultures for hybridization to six two-color microarrays. A dye-swap design was used to remove the Cy5 and Cy3 dye bias.

Project description:The quorum-sensing system has been linked to diverse phenotypes and regulatory changes in pathogenic bacteria. In strain CO92, the AI-2 signal is produced in a luxS-dependent manner, reaching maximal levels of 2.5 μM in late logarithmic growth, and both wild type and pigmentation mutant strains made equivalent levels of AI-2. Yersinia pestis CO92 possesses a chromosomal lsr locus encoding factors involved in the binding and import of AI-2, and confirming this assignment, an lsr deletion increased extracellular pools of AI-2. To assess the functional role of 3 quorum sensing singlas in Y. pestis, microarray study was conducted comparing the 3 quorum sensing signals added in to control at 30°C to mimic the flea gut. Here, the ÎPgm (pigmentation-negative) R88 strain was used. The three signals are one AI-2 and two AHLs (N-(3-Oxooctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone and N-Hexanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone).The control consisted of cells grown and treated under the same conditions without added signals. Six independent RNA samples from 3 signals add in cultures were paired with six independent RNA samples from control cultures for hybridization to six two-color microarrays. A dye-swap design was used to remove the Cy5 and Cy3 dye bias.

Project description:Differential gene expression analysis of Leptospirillum ferriphilum DSM 14647 cells treated with quorum sensing singnal compounds. Briefly, Leptospirillum ferriphilum DSM 14647 cells were grown to early stationary phase in Mackintosh basal salt solution (Mac medium) pH 1.8 (Mackintosh 1978) with 71.6 mM Fe2+ (supplied as FeSO4•7H2O). Cultures were incubated under constant shaking at 140 rpm and 37 °C. Cells were harvested by centrifugation (7.000 g, 10 min). Subsequently cells were inoculated at 10^8 cells/mL in 100 mL Erlenmeyer flasks with 50 mL Mac medium (pH 1.8) and amended with combined DSF (cis-11-methyl-2-dodecenoic acid, CAS 677354-23-3; Sigma) and BDSF (cis-2-dodecenoic acid, CAS 55928-65-9; Sigma) at 2 µM per compound or with a mixture of N-acyl-homoserine-lactones, namely N-dodecanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone (C12-AHL, CAS 8627-38-8, Sigma), N-tetradecanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone (C14-AHL, CAS 98206-80-5, Sigma), N-(3-hydroxydodecanoyl)-DL-homoserine (3-OH-C12-AHL, CAS 182359-60-0), N-(3-hydroxytetradecanoyl)-DL-homoserine lactone (3-OH-C14-AHL, CAS 172670-99-4) at 5 µM per compound. Controls were supplemented with DMSO as used as solvent for signal compound stock solutions. After inoculation 32 mM iron(II) ions were added. The assay flasks were incubated for two hours at 37 °C and 140 rpm. Assays were periodically sampled for determination of Fe2+ concentrations using the phenantroline method (Harvey, Smart et al. 1955). Within this time the inhibitory effect of DSF/BDSF on Fe2+ oxidation was confirmed and subsequently the flasks were rapidly cooled on ice and by addition of 1 volume ice-cold Mac medium (pH 1.8). The cultures (n = 4 per condition) were centrifuged at 12,500 × g for 10 min at 4° C. The cell pellet was washed twice by re-suspending in 2 mL of sterile, ice-cold Mac medium (pH 1.8) and then flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 °C. The nucleic acid extraction was conducted as described by (Christel, Fridlund et al. 2016) with modifications. Briefly, the cells were re-suspended in lysis buffer (0.02 % sodium acetate, 2 % sodium dodecyl sulfate, 1 mM EDTA, pH 5.5) and lysed using Tri-reagent (Ambion) and the lysate was treated with bromo-chloro propane. Nucleic acids were precipitated with isopropanol, cleaned with 80% ethanol, dried at room temperature and subsequently treated with DNAse I (Thermo Fisher Scientific®). Ribosomal RNA depletion was conducted using the QIAseq® FastSelect™ −5S/16S/23S kit for bacterial RNA samples without fragmentation. Nucleic acid quantification and quality control were assessed by agarose gel electrophoresis, NanoDrop, Qubit™ RNA HS Assay kit (Invitrogen®) and the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer . Libraries (12 in total) were prepared by SciLifeLab, Stockholm, Sweden using the Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA Kit. Paired-end sequencing (2 × 151 bp) was performed on one Illumina NovaSeq6000 lane using 'NovaSeqXp' workflow in 'S4' mode flowcell. Bioinformatics and statistics The Bcl to FastQ conversion was performed using bcl2fastq_v2.20.0.422 from the CASAVA software suite. The quality scale used is Sanger / phred33 / Illumina 1.8+. at SciLifeLab, Stockholm, Sweden. The quality of the raw sequencing reads was assessed with FastQC/MultiQC (Andrews 2010, Ewels, Magnusson et al. 2016). Subsequently adapter sequences were removed using Cutadapt/TrimGalore 0.6.1 (Martin 2011, Krueger 2019). Paired-end transcript reads were mapped against the reference genome with the accession number GCA_900198525 (Christel, Herold et al. 2017) using Bowtie2 (Langmead and Salzberg 2012), sorted by their genomic location using the samtools sort function (Liao, Smyth et al. 2019) and counted using feautureCounts of the Rsubreads package (Liao et al. 2019). Raw counts were then processed for assessment of statistically significant differential gene expression with DESeq2 (Love, Huber et al. 2014) by determination of Log2-fold changes (LFC) and corresponding p-values (padj, adjusted p-values).

Project description:Hafnia alvei H4 is a bacteria subject to regulation by N-acyl-l-homoserine lactone (AHL)-mediated quorum sensing system and is closely related to the corruption of instant sea cucumber. Studying the effect of Hafnia alvei H4 quorum sensing regulatory genes on AHLs is necessary for the quality and preservation of instant sea cucumber. In this study, the draft genome of H. alvei H4, which comprises a single chromosome of 4,687,151 bp, was sequenced and analyzed and the types of AHLs were analyzed employing thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and LC-MS/MS. Then the wild-type strain of H. alvei H4 and the luxI/R double mutant (ΔluxIR) were compared by transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq). The results indicate that the incomplete genome sequence revealed the presence of one quorum-sensing (QS) gene set, designated as lasI/expR. Three major AHLs, N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL), N-butyryl-L-homoserine lactone (C4-HSL), and N-(3-oxo-octanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C8-HSL) were found, with C6-HSL being the most abundant. C6-HSL was not detected in the culture of the luxI mutant (ΔluxI) and higher levels of C4-HSL was found in the culture of the luxR mutant (ΔluxR), which suggested that the luxR gene may have a positive effect on C4-HSL production. It was also found that AHL and QS genes are closely related in the absence of luxIR double deletion. The results of this study can further elucidate at the genetic level that luxI and luxR genes are involved in the regulation of AHL.

Project description:In this report, we investigated oxo-C14-HSL-interacting proteins in plants. We propose the AHL-Interacting Protein 1 (ALI1) (previously known as AtGalk2) as interacting protein for oxo-C14-HSL in Arabidopsis. We present here several levels of confirmation and suggest that ALI1 is required for the perception of oxo-C14-HSL in Arabidopsis. This is the first direct evidence of a plant protein interacting with a bacterial quorum sensing molecule.
