Project description:The effect of sulfide stress on Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough (DvH) gene expression was determined by comparing the gene expression profiles of DvH under conditions in which sulfide was allowed to accumulate (high sulfide, average concentration 10 mM) against DvH cells grown under conditions in which sulfide was removed by continuous gassing (low sulfide, average concentration 1 mM). High sulfide significantly decreased the instantaneous growth rate constant and final cell density of the culture indicating a decreased bioenergetic fitness. Changes in gene expression caused by exposure to high sulfide were determined using full-genome DvH microarrays. The transcription of ribosomal protein-encoding genes was decreased, in agreement with the lower growth rate of DvH under high sulfide conditions. Interestingly, expression of the gene for DsrD, located downstream of the genes for dissimilatory sulfite reductase (DsrAB) was also strongly down-regulated. In contrast, the expression of many genes involved in iron accumulation, stress response and proteolysis, and chemotaxis were increased. This indicates that high sulfide represents a significant stress condition, in which the bioavailability of metals like iron may be lowered and in which proteins (e.g. metalloenzymes) may need to be refolded, or proteolytically degraded. Overall this leads to a reduced growth rate and less efficient biomass production with available resources. For each condition 2 unique biological samples were hybridized to 4 arrays that each contained duplicate spots. Genomic DNA was used as universal reference.

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is the deadliest infectious disease worldwide. One obstacle hindering the elimination of TB is our lack of understanding of host-pathogen interactions. Exosomes, naturally loaded with microbial molecules, are circulating markers of TB. Changes in the host protein composition of exosomes from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-infected cells have not been described, can contribute to our understanding of the disease process, and serve as a direct source of biomarkers or as capture targets to enrich for exosomes containing microbial molecules. Here, the protein composition of exosomes from Mtb-infected and uninfected THP-1-derived macrophages was evaluated by tandem-mass-spectrometry and differences in protein abundances were assessed. Our results show that infection with Mtb leads to significant changes in the protein composition of exosomes. Specifically, 41 proteins were significantly more abundant in exosomes from Mtb-infected cells; 63% of these were predicted to be membrane associated. Thus, we used a novel biotinylation strategy to verify protein localization, and confirmed the localization of some of these proteins in the exosomal membrane. Our findings reveal another important scenario where Mtb could be influencing changes in host cells that unveil new features of the host-pathogen interaction and may also be exploited as a source of biomarkers for TB.

Project description:The purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum DSM 180T is one of the best studied sulfur-oxidizing anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria and has been developed into a model organism for laboratory-based studies of oxidative sulfur metabolism. Here, we took advantage of the organismM-bM-^@M-^Ys high metabolic versatility and performed whole-genome transcriptional profiling to investigate the response of A. vinosum cells upon exposure to sulfide, thiosulfate, elemental sulfur or sulfite as compared to photoorganoheterotrophic growth on malate. Differential expression (at least twofold) of 1149 genes was observed, corresponding to 30% of the A. vinosum genome. A total of 549 genes were identified for which relative transcription increased at least twofold during growth on one of the different sulfur sources while relative transcription of 599 genes decreased. A significant number of genes that were strongly induced have documented sulfur-metabolism-related functions. Among these are the dsr genes including dsrAB for dissimilatory sulfite reductase and the sgp genes for the proteins of the sulfur globule envelope thus confirming former results. In addition we were able to identify new genes encoding proteins with appropriate subcellular localization and properties to participate in oxidative dissimilatory sulfur metabolism. Two of these were chosen for inactivation and phenotypic analyses of the respective mutant strains. This approach verified the importance of the encoded proteins for the oxidation of sulfide and thereby also documented the suitability of comparative transcriptomics for the identification of new sulfur-related genes in anoxygenic phototrophic sulfur bacteria. In this study, the relative genomic expression profiles of A. vinosum DSM 180T growing photolithoautotrophically on different reduced sulfur compounds were determined in comparison to those of cells grown photoorganoheterothrophically on malate (RCV medium) at exactly the same light intensity. The malate-containing medium was supplied with 0.815 mM sulfate in order to satisfy the sulfur-requirement for biosynthesis of sulfur-containing cell constituents. Three independent photolithoautotrophic cultures each, grown on sulfide, thiosulfate or sulfite were harvested 1 h, 2 h or 7 h, respectively, after inoculation. When elemental sulfur was the substrate, four independent cultures were harvested 3 h after inoculation.

Project description:The emergence of multidrug resistant tuberculosis and the increasing level of resistance urges the search for alternative drugs in treatment. Several neuroleptics, like thioridazine, reveal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Thioridazine was even successfully applied in compassionate therapy of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis in patients when added to other second and third line antibiotics. The synergistic effects between thioridazine and other anti-tuberculosis drugs is usually assigned to the inhibition of efflux pumps by thioridazine. Using an unbiased proteomic approach, we set out to unravel the molecular mechanism of this potential new anti-tuberculosis component by examining the impact of continuous thioridazine exposure on the proteome of M. tuberculosis. We discovered that under the influence of thioridazine several proteins involved in the maintenance of the cell wall permeability barrier are differentially regulated, while none of the known mycobacterial efflux pumps was differentially regulated on the protein level. By assessing accumulation of fluorescent dyes in M. tuberculosis over time, we demonstrated that long-term drug exposure of M. tuberculosis indeed affected the mycobacterial cell envelope and increased the permeability towards both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds. Furthermore, we demonstrated that treatment of M. tuberculosis with thioridazine altered the composition of the plasma membrane. Thioridazine induced an increase in cell envelope permeability, and thereby the enhanced uptake of compounds, this could explain the previously reported synergistic effects between thioridazine and other anti-tuberculosis drugs. Although the hypothesis of higher intercellular drug concentrations by THZ has not changed in this study, the more exact knowledge on its mode of action is a major step forward. This new insight in the molecular mechanism of this anti-tuberculosis compound could facilitate further development of this class of drugs for application in drug therapy of multidrug resistant tuberculosis. In fact, the efficacy of many existing drugs could be improved significantly.

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis accounts for 1.5 million annual deaths worldwide. The two well-characterized strains of the parental H37 strain namely, H37Ra and H37Rv show different pathogenic phenotypes. In order to identify factors that are responsible for virulence, we compared the proteome and the phosphoproteome profiles of virulent (H37Rv) and virulence attenuated (H37Ra) strains of M. tuberculosis. Quantitative proteomic analysis resulted in the identification and quantitation of 2,709 proteins and 505 phosphosites. Comparative analysis revealed over 5-fold overexpression of several proteins associated with virulence. Our data indicates that there are definable molecular differences between H37Rv and H37Ra strains at both the proteome and phosphoproteome levels which may explain the virulence and phenotypic differences.

Project description:Primary alveolar type II cells were either treated with vehicle or NaHS for 6 h and 24 h (RS-266 samples). Primary alveolar type II cells treated with GYY4137 at 100 M-BM-5M concentration were exposed to either 21% O2 or 85% O2 for 24 h (RS-284 samples). Overall no changes in gene expressionwere found in the corrected p values of both microarray studies. Four vehicle samples at 6 h of exposure, four NaHS treated samples at 6 h of exposure, four vehicle samples at 24 h of exposure and four NaHS treated samples at 24 h of exposure were used for the RS-266 microarray study. four GYY4137 100 M-BM-5M samples in 21% O2 after 24 h of exposure were compared to four GYY4137 100 M-BM-5M samples in 85% O2 after 24 h of exposure and used for the RS-284 microarray study.
