Profiling of Campylobacter jejuni Proteome in Exponential and Stationary Phase of Growth.

ABSTRACT: Campylobacter jejuni has been reported as a major cause of bacterial food-borne enteritides in developed countries during the last decade. Despite its fastidious growth requirements, including low level of oxygen and high level of CO2, this pathogen is able to persist in the environment without permanent loss of its viability and virulence. As C. jejuni is not able to multiply outside a host, the cells spend significant amount of time in stationary phase of growth. The entry into the stationary phase is often correlated to resistance to various stresses in bacteria. The switching between exponential and stationary phases is frequently mediated by the regulator sigma S (RpoS). However, this factor is absent in C. jejuni and molecular mechanisms responsible for transition of cells to the stationary phase remain elusive. In this work, proteomic profiles of cells from exponential and stationary phases were compared using 2-D electrophoresis (2DE) fingerprinting combined with mass spectrometry analysis and qRT-PCR. The identified proteins, whose expression differed between the two phases, are mostly involved in protein biosynthesis, carbon metabolism, stress response and motility. Altered expression was observed also in the pleiotropic regulator CosR that was over-expressed during stationary phase. A shift between transcript and protein level evolution of CosR throughout the growth of C. jejuni was observed using qRT-PCR and (2DE). From these data, we hypothesized that CosR could undergo a negative autoregulation in stationary phase. A consensus sequence resulting from promoter sequence alignment of genes potentially regulated by CosR, including its own upstream region, among C. jejuni strains is proposed. To verify experimentally the potential autoregulation of CosR at the DNA level, electrophoretic mobility shift assay was performed with DNA fragments of CosR promoter region and rCosR. Different migration pattern of the promoter fragments indicates the binding capacity of CosR, suggesting its auto-regulation potential.

Project description:The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a widely-used eukaryotic model organism and a promising cell factory for industry. However, despite decades of research, the regulation of its metabolism is not yet fully understood, and its complexity represents a major challenge for engineering and optimizing biosynthetic routes. Recent studies have demonstrated the potential of resource and proteomic allocation data in enhancing models for metabolic processes. However, comprehensive and accurate proteome dynamics data that can be used for such approaches are still very limited. Therefore, we performed a quantitative proteome dynamics study to comprehensively cover the transition from exponential to stationary phase for both aerobically and anaerobically grown yeast cells. The combination of highly controlled reactor experiments, biological replicates, and standardized sample preparation procedures ensured reproducibility and accuracy. In addition, we selected the CEN.PK lineage for our experiments because of its relevance for both fundamental and applied research. Together with the prototrophic standard haploid strain CEN.PK113-7D, we also investigated an engineered strain with genetic minimization of the glycolytic pathway, resulting in the quantitative assessment of 54 proteomes. The anaerobic cultures showed remarkably less proteome-level changes compared with the aerobic cultures, during transition from the exponential to the stationary phase as a consequence of the lack of the diauxic shift in the absence of oxygen. These results support the notion that anaerobically growing cells lack resources to adequately adapt to starvation. This proteome dynamics study constitutes an important step toward better understanding of the impact of glucose exhaustion and oxygen on the complex proteome allocation process in yeast. Finally, the established proteome dynamics data provide a valuable resource for the development of resource allocation models as well as for metabolic engineering efforts.
