Project description:Biofilm formation by Escherichia coli was significantly inhibited when co-cultured with Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in static systems. Genes of E. coli involved in species interactions with S. maltophilia were identified in order to allow the study of the mechanisms of inhibited E. coli biofilm formation in co-culture. A total of 89 and 108 genes were identified as differentially expressed in mixed species cultures when growing as biofilm and as planktonic cultures, respectively, compared to the counterpart of pure cultured E. coli. Differential expression of certain identified genes was confirmed using E. coli reporter strains combined with single-cell based flow cytometry analysis. Co-culture with S. maltophilia affected genes involved in metabolism, signal transduction, cell wall composition, and biofilm formation of E. coli. Several selected genes were further confirmed as affecting E. coli biofilm formation in mixed species cultures with S. maltophilia. The data suggest that these genes were involved in species interactions between E. coli and S. maltophilia. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Refer to individual Series.

Project description:Transcription profile of Escherichia coli cells in biofilms under static batch culture was compared to that of E. coli cells in planktonic cultures. Both E. coli biofilm and planktonic cultures were cultivated for 18 h in 10% Luria-Bertani broth at room temperature (20 degree Celsius). Biofilms were grown in static batch culture in petri dishes. Both planktonic culture and biofilms were homogenized and run through a separated protocol. Two condition experiments: E. coli biofilm vs E. coli planktonic cultures. Two biological replicates with independently grown and harvested biofilms or planktonic cultures. Each biological replicate has two technical replicates of hybridization on microarray slides. Each slide has three built-in replicates for each probe.

Project description:Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportunistic pathogenic bacterium intrinsically resistant to most antibiotics and biocides. The aim of this study is to map transcription start sites and 5'UTRs, and to discover novel non-coding small RNAs expressed in biofilms. The experimental approach used for this study is differential sequencing, where RNA samples are split into two aliquots, one of which is then treated with a 5' monophosphate-dependent exonuclease. Two separate libraries are created from exonuclease-treated and -untreated sub-samples, using illumina sequencing from the 5'end, without fractionation step and without depletion of abundant rRNAs. Transcription start sites can then be identified by comparing exonuclease-treated with untreated RNA-seq libraries.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are bacterial pathogens that have been shown to co-exist in biofilms related to numerous infections. Although the interaction between these two species is competitive, both partially benefit from the coexistence. In this study, we exhaustively characterized the interaction between Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by utilizing a proteomics approach, individually targeting the surface-associated proteins (surfaceome), and proteins secreted or otherwise liberated to the extracellular space (exoproteome). To that end, the conditions to co-culture S. aureus and P. aeruginosa in vitro were optimized and a high-resolution proteomics approach was applied to compare surface-associated and extracellular protein profiles between mono- and co-cultured biofilms.

Project description:In this work we have demonstrated increased mutability of Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermidis in biofilms and have explored the mechanisms underlying the enhanced mutability. A novel static biofilm model, utilising cellulose filter disks, was developed to support the formation of mature biofilms with sufficiently high cell densities to permit determination of mutation frequencies. The mutability of biofilm cultures increased up to 60 fold and 4 fold for S. aureus and S. epidermidis, respectively, compared with planktonic cultures. Incorporation of antioxidants into S. aureus biofilms reduced mutation frequencies, indicating that increased oxidative stress underlies increased mutability in the biofilm. Transcriptional profiling revealed upregulation of the superoxide dismutase gene, sodA, in early biofilm cultures, also suggesting enhanced oxidative stress in these cultures. However, loss of the genes encoding superoxide dismutases or peroxidases did not specifically exacerabate biofilm mutability. In S. aureus SH1000, hydrogen peroxide was found to contribute to biofilm mutability.

Project description:Most bacteria can form biofilms, which typically have a life cycle from cells initially attaching to a surface before aggregation and growth produces biomass and an extracellular matrix before finally cells disperse. To maximise fitness at each stage of this life cycle, and given the different events taking place within a biofilm, temporal regulation of gene expression is essential. We recently described the genes required for optimal fitness over time during biofilm formation in Escherichia coli using a massively parallel transposon mutagenesis approach called TraDIS-Xpress. We have now repeated this study in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium to determine the similarities and differences in biofilm formation through time between these species. This work deepens understanding of the core requirements for biofilm formation in the Enterobacteriaceae whilst also identifying some genes with specialised roles in biofilm formation in each species.

Project description:Transcription profile of Escherichia coli cells in mono-species pure biofilms was compared to that of E. coli cells in E. coli-Stenotrophomonas maltophilia dual-species biofilms. E. coli cells were separated from dual-species biofilms before total RNA extraction to eliminate possible cross hybridization from S. maltophilia transcripts. The separation method was developed by combining the use of reagent RNAlater and immuno-magnetic separation. Pure E. coli biofilms were processed with the same separation protocol before RNA extraction. Two condition experiments: E. coli mono-species biofilm vs E. coli in mixed-species biofilm. Two biological replicates with independently grown and harvested biofilms. Each biological replicate has two or three technical replicates of hybridization on microarray slides. Each slide has three built-in replicates for each probe.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis was applied to characterize the physiological activities of Psuedomonas aeruginosa cells grown for three days in drip flow biofilm reactors when compared to the activities of P. aeruginosa grown planktonically to exponential phase in the same media. Here, rather than examining the effect of an individual gene on biofilm antibiotic tolerance, we used a transcriptomics approach to identify regulons and groups of related genes that are induced during biofilm growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We then tested for statistically significant overlap between the biofilm-induced genes and independently compiled gene lists corresponding to stress responses and other putative antibiotic protective mechanisms. This data was evaluated and used to select strains that carry transposon mutations in genes that might play a role in antibiotic tolerance of biofilms. The strains were evaluated for defects in biofilm tolerance. One planktonic condition with four biological replicates; One drip flow biofilm condition grown for 72 hours with three biological replicates; One drip flow biofilm condition grown for 84 hours with three biological replicates.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus causes treatment-resistant infections, to which biofilm formation and bacterial persistence contribute greatly. This study aims at the large-scale characterization of mechanisms behind its prolonged persistence in hostile environments and capability to evade host defenses. We carried out the analysis of surface-exposed proteins in S. aureus biofilms prepared from two types of inocula; metabolically active, levofloxacin-susceptible culture and stationary phase, levofloxacin-tolerant culture. Age-synchronized planktonic control cultures provided a reference to facilitate the identification of growth mode-specific surface-expression patterns.
