Exploring the mode of action of anti-mycobacterial activity of C17 diynes using microarray

ABSTRACT: The anti-mycobacterial activity of C17 diynes has been described previously, however, their mode of action remains unknown. Microarray techniques were used to explore the genetic regulation reponses of Mycobacterium smegmatis to treatment with the C17 diynes, falcarinol and panaxydol. Our analyses showed a distinct mode of action of the C17 diynes when compared with commonly used anti-mycobacterial drugs. In addition, geneset enrichment analysis, pathway enrichment analysis and PASS analysis revealed significant gene ontology terms, pathways and potential modes of action, respectively. Combing the results of the three analyses, we hypothesize that the C17 diynes inhibit fatty acid biosynthesis, specifically phospholipid synthesis in mycobacteira. Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2 155 was treated with 10 times of MIC90 of falcarinol, panaxydol, isoniazid, ethambutol and kanamycin for 6 hours with at least 6 independent biological replicates.

Project description:Total transcriptome analyses were carried out to investigate changes in transcript patterns in the Mycobacterium smegmatis wild type strain SMR5 due to nitrogen starvation and to expand the knowledge about the role of the two transcriptional regulators of nitrogen metabolism, namely GlnR and AmtR, in these processes. A first experiment revealed enhanced transcript levels of 284 genes and reduced transcripts of 231 genes in the wild type under nitrogen starvation compared to nitrogen surplus. When glnR deletion strain MH1 was compared to the wild type under nitrogen starvation, decreased transcript levels of 125 genes were detected, indicating that these are activated by GlnR due to nitrogen limitation. Comparing amtR deletion strain YL1 to the wild type under nitrogen starvation, enhanced transcript levels of 2 genes were found, indicating that they are repressed by AmtR under nitrogen surplus. A comparison of YL1 and wild type under surplus, as well as a comparison of YL1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation and of MH1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation were carried out as additional control experiments. It can be concluded that GlnR is the master regulator of nitrogen control in M. smegmatis and that AmtR fulfills only a small, subordinate role in the regulation of an operon. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30033: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of glnR deletion strain MH1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30231: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen starvation GSE30232: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30233: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 under nitrogen surplus and starvation GSE30234: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and glnR deletion strain MH1 under nitrogen starvation GSE30235: Mycobacterium smegmatis - Comparison of wild type SMR5 and amtR deletion strain YL1 under nitrogen surplus Refer to individual Series
