Project description:Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a pathogen infecting those with cystic fibrosis, encounters toxicity from phagocyte-derived reactive oxidants including hydrogen peroxide during active infection. P. aeruginosa responds with adaptive and protective strategies against these toxic species to effectively infect humans. Despite advances in our understanding of the responses to oxidative stress in many specific cases, the connectivity between targeted protective genes and the rest of cell metabolism remains obscure. Results: Herein, we performed a genome-wide transcriptome analysis of the cellular responses to hydrogen peroxide in order to determine a more complete picture of how oxidative stress-induced genes are related and regulated. Our data reinforce the previous conclusion that DNA repair proteins and catalases may be among the most vital antioxidant defense systems of P. aeruginosa. Our results also suggest that sublethal oxidative damage reduces active and/or facilitated transport and that intracellular iron might be a key factor for a relationship between oxidative stress and iron regulation. Perhaps most intriguingly, we revealed that the transcription of all F-, R-, and S-type pyocins was upregulated by oxidative stress and at the same time, a cell immunity protein (pyocin S2 immunity protein) was downregulated, possibly leading to self-killing activity. Conclusions: This finding proposes that pyocin production might be another novel defensive scheme against oxidative attack by host cells. Experiment Overall Design: We conducted four and five independent microarray experiments with biological replicates in the absence (control) and the presence (experimental) of hydrogen peroxide, respectively.

Project description:Genome-wide transcription profiling of B. japonicum fixJ, fixK2, and fixK1 mutant strains which were grown in free-living microoxic condition, and in the case of the fixK1 mutant also in anoxic condition. Transcriptomes of nodules from soybean plants infected with the fixJ or fixK2 mutant strains were investigated, too. This study includes also the expression data of a nifA mutant grown in free-living anoxic condition. Samples from GSM210242 to GSM210286 in GEO record number GSE8478 need to be considered for the analyses. Keywords: gene regulation, genetic modification, growth conditions, symbiosis Comparison analysis of the B. japonicum fixJ, fixK2 and fixK1 mutants and the wild type grown under different oxygen conditions in culture and during symbiosis with soybean.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronically colonizes the lungs of individuals with CF, where it reaches high cell densities and produces a battery of virulence factors. Upon infection, a single strain of P. aeruginosa can colonize an individualâs lungs throughout his or her lifetime. To understand the evolution of P. aeruginosa during chronic lung infection, we conducted both genotypic and phenotypic analyses on clinical isogenic strains obtained from the lungs of three different individuals with CF. These strains were isolated over a period of approximately ten years and possess phenotypes that are commonly observed in isolates from the CF lung, such as the antibiotic resistant dwarf and mucoid phenotypes. Microarray analyses were carried out on isolates grown in a chemically defined medium that mimics the nutritional environment of the CF lung, synthetic CF sputum medium (SCFM). 17 clinically isolated P. aeruginosa strains from three individuals with CF (5 strains from individual P1, 7 strains from individual P2, 5 strains from individual P3). Two reference strains PAO1 and PA14. All experiments were biologically duplicated.

Project description:The M-NM-1-proteobacterium Sinorhizobium fredii NGR234 has an exceptionally wide host range as it forms nitrogen-fixing nodules with more legumes than any other known microsymbiont. Within its 6.9 Mbp genome it encodes two N-acyl-homoserine-lactone synthase genes (i.e. traI and ngrI) involved in the biosynthesis of two distinct autoinducer I-type molecules. Here we report on the construction of a NGR234-M-NM-^TtraI and a NGR234-M-NM-^TngrI mutant and the genome wide RNA-seq-based transcriptome analysis in the parent strain and in the two constructed mutants. A high-resolution RNA-seq analysis of early stationary phase cultures in the background of NGR234-M-NM-^TtraI suggested that up to 316 genes (4.9% of all predicted genes) were differentially expressed in the mutant vs. the parent strain. Similarly, in the background of NGR234-M-NM-^TngrI 466 differentially regulated genes (7.3% of all predicted genes) were identified. A considerable overlap in the gene expression pattern was uncovered between both mutants resulting in a common set of 186 genes which were almost identically regulated. Co-regulated genes that were linked to the ngrI- and the traI-dependent autoinducer regulatory circuits included 53 flagella biosynthesis genes and genes linked to EPS succinoglycan biosynthesis. Among the genes and ORFs that were differentially regulated in NGR234-M-NM-^TtraI were those linked to replication of the pNGR234a symbiotic plasmid and cytochrome c-related genes. In the NGR234-M-NM-^TngrI mutant biotin and pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) biosynthesis genes were differentially expressed as well as the entire cluster of 21 genes linked to assembly of the NGR234 type three secretion system II (T3SS-II). We also discovered that genes responsible for octopine catabolism in NGR234 are strongly repressed in the presence of high levels of N-acyl-homoserine-lactones (AHLs). Surprisingly, only few truly symbiosis-related genes were identified that appeared to be quorum sensing regulated. Together with nodulation assays, the RNAseq-based findings suggested that QS-dependent gene regulation appears to be of higher relevance during non-symbiotic growth rather than for life within root nodules. In total 12 samples were analyzed (six different treatments with two independent samples), treatment A: NGR234 wild type strain in stationary phase, treatment B: NGR234 traI-mutant strain in stationary phase, treatment C: NGR234 ngrI-mutant strain in stationary phase, treatment D: NGR234 wild type strain in exponential phase, treatment E: NGR234 wild type supplemented with 0.05 M-BM-5M AHLs in exponential phase, treatment F: NGR234 wild type supplemented with 50 M-BM-5M AHLs in exponential phase
