Project description:Campylobacter jejuni has become the predominant cause of sheep abortions in the U.S. However, little is know about the genetic diversity among the isolates collected from different time periods. In this study, the genetic diversity of sheep aborion isolates of C. jejuni was investigated by Array-based CGH Each isolate was compared to IA3902, a dye-swap replicate was applied for each isolate

Project description:A highly pathogenic Campylobacter jejuni clone has recently emerged as the major cause of Campylobacter-associated sheep abortion in the U.S. and is also associated with foodborne gastroenteritis in humans. A distinct phenotype of this clone is its ability to induce bacteremia and abortion. To facilitate understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of this hyper virulent clone, the differences in global gene expression patterns between this hyper virulent clone (IA3902) and a non-abortifacient strain (NCTC 11168) were compared by DNA microarray. One-condition experiment, IA3902 vs NCTC11168. Biological replicates: 3 IA3902 , 3 NCTC11168. One replicate per array.

Project description:Campylobacter jejuni is currently the leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in humans. Comparison of multiple Campylobacter strains revealed a high genetic and phenotypic diversity. However, little is known about differences in transcriptome organization, gene expression, and small RNA (sRNA) repertoires. Here we present the first comparative primary transcriptome analysis based on the differential RNAM-bM-^@M-^Sseq (dRNAM-bM-^@M-^Sseq) of four C. jejuni isolates. Our approach includes a novel, generic method for the automated annotation of transcriptional start sites (TSS), which allowed us to provide genome-wide promoter maps in the analyzed strains. These global TSS maps are refined through the integration of a SuperGenome approach that allows for a comparative TSS annotation by mapping RNAM-bM-^@M-^Sseq data of multiple strains into a common coordinate system derived from a whole-genome alignment. Considering the steadily increasing amount of RNAM-bM-^@M-^Sseq studies, our automated TSS annotation will not only facilitate transcriptome annotation for a wider range of pro- and eukaryotes but can also be adapted for the analysis among different growth or stress conditions. Our comparative dRNAM-bM-^@M-^Sseq analysis revealed conservation of most TSS, but also single-nucleotide-polymorphisms (SNP) in promoter regions, which lead to strain-specific transcriptional output. Furthermore, we identified strain-specific sRNA repertoires that could contribute to differential gene regulation among strains. In addition, we identified a novel minimal CRISPR-system in Campylobacter of the type-II CRISPR subtype, which relies on the host factor RNase III and a trans-encoded sRNA for maturation of crRNAs. This minimal system of Campylobacter, which seems active in only some strains, employs a unique maturation pathway, since the crRNAs are transcribed from individual promoters in the upstream repeats and thereby minimize the requirements for the maturation machinery. Overall, our study provides new insights into strain-specific transcriptome organization and sRNAs, and reveals genes that could modulate phenotypic variation among strains despite high conservation at the DNA level. Our dRNA-seq study of multiple C. jejuni strains represents the first comparative analysis of the primary transcriptomes of multiple strains and provides new insights into riboregulation in this bacterial pathogen.

Project description:N-linked glycosylation is an essential virulence determinant in Campylobacter jejuni, the major causative agent of gastroenteritis in the developed world. Glycosylation is encoded by the pgl gene cluster which encodes for the biosynthesis and attachment of a conserved heptasaccharide glycan to proteins in the C. jejuni periplasm. Over 80 membrane-associated proteins have been identified, however the functional role played by glycan attachment is almost completely unknown. We used quantitative proteomics by label-based and targeted strategies to examine glycosylation negative C. jejuni in comparison to wild-type. These technical approaches were considered as ‘discovery’ (label-based) and ‘validation’ data sets in our subsequent analysis. Inclusion of a glycosylation restored strain enabled us to further exploit the proteomics data to exclude non-specific protein abundance changes that could be considered as off-target effects. These data have provided a reference set of changes associated with protein N-glycosylation that could subsequently be tested by phenotypic analysis to determine the role of this modification in Campylobacter biology.

Project description:Campylobacter jejuni is a major cause of food-borne gastroenteritis. Proteomics by label-based two-dimensional liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) identified proteins associated with growth in 0.1% sodium deoxycholate (DOC, a component of gut bile salts), and system-wide validation was performed by data-independent acquisition (DIA-SWATH-MS). Proteins involved in nutrient transport were altered by DOC and aligned with intracellular changes to their respective carbon sources. DOC increased intracellular levels of sulfur-containing amino acids (cysteine and methionine) and the dipeptide cystine (Cys-Cys). A DOC induced transport protein was Cj0025c, which has sequence similarity to bacterial Cys-Cys transporters. Deletion of cj0025c (Δcj0025c) resulted in proteome changes consistent with sulfur starvation.

Project description:Custom Agilent 8 x 15K microarray interrogating exon level expression of a set of genes previously known to be involved in oncogenic rearrangements. The goal of this study was to discover novel gene fusions by screening for exonic expression transitions within individual genes. Sixteen cancer samples and cell lines, including eight positive controls with known gene fusions and eight sarcoma specimens, where gene fusions have yet to be discovered, were hybridized against a common reference mRNA control (pooled from 11 diverse cell lines)
