Comparative proteome analysis of Brucella melitensis vaccine strain Rev 1 and a virulent strain, 16M.

Project description:The genus Brucella consists of bacterial pathogens that cause brucellosis, a major zoonotic disease characterized by undulant fever and neurological disorders in humans. Among the different Brucella species, Brucella melitensis is considered the most virulent. Despite successful use in animals, the vaccine strains remain infectious for humans. To understand the mechanism of virulence in B. melitensis, the proteome of vaccine strain Rev 1 was analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and compared to that of virulent strain 16M. The two strains were grown under identical laboratory conditions. Computer-assisted analysis of the two B. melitensis proteomes revealed proteins expressed in either 16M or Rev 1, as well as up- or down-regulation of proteins specific for each of these strains. These proteins were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting. It was found that certain metabolic pathways may be deregulated in Rev 1. Expression of an immunogenic 31-kDa outer membrane protein, proteins utilized for iron acquisition, and those that play a role in sugar binding, lipid degradation, and amino acid binding was altered in Rev 1.

Genomic analysis of the original Elberg Brucella melitensis Rev.1 vaccine strain reveals insights into virulence attenuation.

Project description:The live attenuated Brucella melitensis Rev.1 Elberg-originated vaccine strain has been widely used to control brucellosis in small ruminants. However, despite extensive research, the molecular mechanisms underlying the attenuation of this strain are still unknown. In the current study, we conducted a comprehensive comparative analysis of the whole-genome sequence of Rev.1 against that of the virulent reference strain, B. melitensis 16M. This analysis revealed five regions of insertion and three regions of deletion within the Rev.1 genome, among which, one large region of insertion, comprising 3,951 bp, was detected in the Rev.1 genome. In addition, we found several missense mutations within important virulence-related genes, which may be used to determine the mechanism underlying virulence attenuation. Collectively, our findings provide new insights into the Brucella virulence mechanisms and, therefore, may serve as a basis for the rational design of new Brucella vaccines.

Protein Biomarker Identification for the Discrimination of Brucella melitensis Field Isolates From the Brucella melitensis Rev.1 Vaccine Strain by MALDI-TOF MS.

Project description:Brucella melitensis Rev.1 is a live attenuated vaccine strain that is widely used to control brucellosis in small ruminants. For successful surveillance and control programs, rapid identification and characterization of Brucella isolates and reliable differentiation of vaccinated and naturally infected animals are essential prerequisites. Although MALDI-TOF MS is increasingly applied in clinical microbiology laboratories for the diagnosis of brucellosis, species or even strain differentiation by this method remains a challenge. To detect biomarkers, which enable to distinguish the B. melitensis Rev.1 vaccine strain from B. melitensis field isolates, we initially searched for unique marker proteins by in silico comparison of the B. melitensis Rev.1 and 16M proteomes. We found 113 protein sequences of B. melitensis 16M that revealed a homologous sequence in the B. melitensis Rev.1 annotation and 17 of these sequences yielded potential biomarker pairs. MALDI-TOF MS spectra of 18 B. melitensis Rev.1 vaccine and 183 Israeli B. melitensis field isolates were subsequently analyzed to validate the identified marker candidates. This approach detected two genus-wide unique biomarkers with properties most similar to the ribosomal proteins L24 and S12. These two proteins clearly discriminated B. melitensis Rev.1 from the closely related B. melitensis 16M and the Israeli B. melitensis field isolates. In addition, we verified their discriminatory power using a set of B. melitensis strains from various origins and of different MLVA types. Based on our results, we propose MALDI-TOF MS profiling as a rapid, cost-effective alternative to the traditional, time-consuming approach to differentiate certain B. melitensis isolates on strain level.

Transcriptomic Analysis of the Brucella melitensis Rev.1 Vaccine Strain in an Acidic Environment: Insights Into Virulence Attenuation.

Project description:The live attenuated Brucella melitensis Rev.1 (Elberg-originated) vaccine strain is widely used to control the zoonotic infection brucellosis in small ruminants, but the molecular mechanisms underlying the attenuation of this strain have not been fully characterized. Following their uptake by the host cell, Brucella replicate inside a membrane-bound compartment-the Brucella-containing vacuole-whose acidification is essential for the survival of the pathogen. Therefore, identifying the genes that contribute to the survival of Brucella in acidic environments will greatly assist our understanding of its molecular pathogenic mechanisms and of the attenuated virulence of the Rev.1 strain. Here, we conducted a comprehensive comparative transcriptome analysis of the Rev.1 vaccine strain against the virulent reference strain 16M in cultures grown under either normal or acidic conditions. We found 403 genes that respond differently to acidic conditions in the two strains (FDR < 0.05, fold change ≥ 2). These genes are involved in crucial cellular processes, including metabolic, biosynthetic, and transport processes. Among the highly enriched genes that were downregulated in Rev.1 under acidic conditions were acetyl-CoA synthetase, aldehyde dehydrogenase, cell division proteins, a cold-shock protein, GroEL, and VirB3. The downregulation of these genes may explain the attenuated virulence of Rev.1 and provide new insights into the virulence mechanisms of Brucella.

Safety and Transcriptome Analysis of Brucella Live Attenuated Vaccine Strain S2 on Cynomolgus Monkeys

Project description:Brucellosis, caused by Brucella spp, is an important zoonotic disease leading to enormous economic losses in livestock and posing great threat to public health worldwide. The live attenuated Brucella suis (B. suis) strain S2 is a safe and effective vaccine, and it is most widely used in animals in China. However, S2 vaccination in animals may raise debates and concerns in terms of safety to primates, particularly human. In this study, using cynomolgus monkey as an animal model, we evaluated the safety of the S2 vaccine strain on primate, in addition, we performed transcriptome analysis to determine gene expression profiling on cynomolgus monkeys immunized with the S2 vaccine. Our results suggested that the S2 vaccine was safe to cynomolgus monkeys. Transcriptome analysis identified 663 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which 348 were significantly up-regulated and 315 were remarkably down-regulated. Gene Ontology (GO) classification and KEGG pathway analysis indicated that these DEGs were involved in various biological processes, including chemokine signaling pathway, actin cytoskeleton regulation, defense response, immune system processing, and type I interferon signaling pathway. The molecular functions of the DEGs mainly comprised of 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase activity, double-stranded RNA binding and actin binding. Moreover, the cellular components of these DEGs included integrin complex, myosin II complex and blood microparticle. Our findings alleviate the concerns in safety of the S2 vaccine on primates and provide genetic basis of mammalian host response and gene regulation after vaccination with the S2 vaccine.
