Cytosolic Proteome Profiling of Aminoglycosides Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Clinical Isolates Using MALDI-TOF/MS.

ABSTRACT: Emergence of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is the consequence of the failure of second line TB treatment. Aminoglycosides are the important second line anti-TB drugs used to treat the multi drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Main known mechanism of action of aminoglycosides is to inhibit the protein synthesis by inhibiting the normal functioning of ribosome. Primary target of aminoglycosides are the ribosomal RNA and its associated proteins. Various mechanisms have been proposed for aminoglycosides resistance but still some are unsolved. As proteins are involved in most of the biological processes, these act as a potential diagnostic markers and drug targets. In the present study we analyzed the purely cytosolic proteome of amikacin (AK) and kanamycin (KM) resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates by proteomic and bioinformatic approaches. Twenty protein spots were found to have over expressed in resistant isolates and were identified. Among these Rv3208A, Rv2623, Rv1360, Rv2140c, Rv1636, and Rv2185c are six proteins with unknown functions or undefined role. Docking results showed that AK and KM binds to the conserved domain (DUF, USP-A, Luciferase, PEBP and Polyketidecyclase/dehydrase domain) of these hypothetical proteins and over expression of these proteins might neutralize/modulate the effect of drug molecules. TBPred and GPS-PUP predicted cytoplasmic nature and potential pupylation sites within these identified proteins, respectively. String analysis also suggested that over expressed proteins along with their interactive partners might be involved in aminoglycosides resistance. Cumulative effect of these over expressed proteins could be involved in AK and KM resistance by mitigating the toxicity, repression of drug target and neutralizing affect. These findings need further exploitation for the expansion of newer therapeutics or diagnostic markers against AK and KM resistance so that an extreme condition like XDR-TB can be prevented.

Project description:Clostridioides difficile is an important organism causing healthcare-associated infections. It has been documented that specific strains caused multiple outbreaks globally, and patients infected with those strains are more likely to develop severe C. difficile infection (CDI). With the appearance of a variant strain, BI/NAP1 ribotype 027, responsible for several outbreaks and high mortality rates worldwide, the epidemiology of the CDI changed drastically in the United States, Europe, and some Latin American countries. Although the epidemic strain 027 was not yet detected in Brazil, there are ribotypes exclusively found in the country, such as, 131, 132, 133, 135, 142 and 143, which are responsible for outbreaks in Brazilian hospitals and nursing homes. Although PCR-ribotyping is the most used method in epidemiology studies of C. difficile, it is not available in Brazil. This study aimed to develop and validate an in-house database for detecting C. difficile ribotypes, usually involved in CDI in Brazilian hospitals, by using MALDI-TOF MS. A database with 19 different ribotypes, 13 with worldwide circulation and 6 Brazilian-restricted, was created based on 27 spectra readings of each ribotype. After BioNumerics analysis, neighbor-joining trees revealed that spectra were distributed in clusters according to ribotypes, showing that MALDI-TOF MS could discriminate all 19 ribotypes. Moreover, each ribotype showed a different profile with 42 biomarkers detected in total. Based on their intensity and occurrence, 13 biomarkers were chosen to compose ribotype-specific profiles, and in silico analysis showed that most of these biomarkers were uncharacterized proteins or well-conserved peptides, such as ribosomal proteins. A double-blind assessment using the 13 biomarkers correctly assigned the ribotype in 73% of the spectra analyzed, with 94%-100% of correct hits for 027 and for Brazilian ribotypes. Although further analyses are required, our results show that MALDI-TOF MS might be a reliable, fast and feasible alternative for epidemiological surveillance of C. difficile in Brazil.
