Draft Genome Sequences of Seven Strains of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli O111 with Variation in Their Sensitivity to Novobiocin.

ABSTRACT: Inclusion of novobiocin as a selective agent for enrichment media and selective agars inhibits the growth of some Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains, particularly non-O157 STEC, which can yield false-negative detection results. Here, we report the draft genomic sequences of seven STEC O111 isolates with different sensitivities to novobiocin.

Draft Genome Sequences of 12 Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Dairy Cattle in Portugal.

Project description:Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a foodborne pathogen transmitted from animals to humans through contaminated food. Cattle are the main reservoir of STEC, but their genetic diversity is still poorly characterized, especially regarding strains isolated in Portugal. We therefore present the draft genomic sequences of 12 STEC strains isolated from cattle in the north of Portugal.

Enterohemolytic phenotypes and genotypes of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O111 strains from patients with diarrhea and hemolytic-uremic syndrome.

Project description:Thirty-six Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O111:H- strains, 18 of which were isolated from patients with hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) and 18 from patients suffering from diarrhea, were investigated for their enterohemolytic phenotypes and genotypes. Twenty-two strains were EHEC hemolysin (EHEC Hly) positive by probe hybridization and by PCR with sequences complementary to the EHEC hlyA gene of E. coli O157:H7, but only 20 of these were hemolytic on blood agar plates. The remaining 14 strains were EHEC Hly negative according to DNA-based methods and did not express the enterohemolytic phenotype. The enterohemolytic phenotype was observed in 16 of 18 (88%) strains from patients with HUS but only in 4 of 18 (22.2%) of the STEC O111:H- strains from patients with diarrhea. All STEC O111:H- strains carried large plasmids, as shown by plasmid analysis, but only plasmids of EHEC Hly probe-positive strains hybridized with the CVD419 probe. A BamHI fragment of approximately 12 kb was cloned from the large plasmid of the E. coli O111:H- strain 78/92 and shown to mediate hemolytic activity when transformed into the E. coli laboratory strain HB101. The EHEC O111 hlyA gene was sequenced completely and shown to have 99.4% sequence identity to the corresponding EHEC O157 hlyA gene of the E. coli O157:H7 strain EDL 933. Our results indicate that detection of EHEC Hly either by DNA-based methods or by investigation of the enterohemolytic phenotype on blood agar alone is insufficient for screening STEC O111 strains. However, the high incidence of EHEC Hly in isolates from patients with HUS and its rare occurrence in isolates from patients with diarrhea may indicate that STEC O111 strains have a distinct pathogenic potential for humans and that the presence of EHEC Hly increases the ability of an STEC O111 strain to cause extraintestinal complications in humans.

The Polymorphic Aggregative Phenotype of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli O111 Depends on RpoS and Curli.

Project description:Escherichia coli O111 is an emerging non-O157:H7 serotype of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC). We previously reported that outbreak and environmental, but not sporadic-case, strains of STEC O111 share a distinct aggregation phenotype (M. E. Diodati, A. H. Bates, M. B. Cooley, S. Walker, R. E. Mandrell, and M. T. Brandl, Foodborne Pathog Dis 12:235-243, 2015, http://dx.doi.org/10.1089/fpd.2014.1887). We show here the natural occurrence of nonaggregative variants in single STEC O111 strains. These variants do not produce curli fimbriae and lack RpoS function but synthesize cellulose. The deletion of csgBAC or rpoS in an aggregative outbreak strain abolished aggregate formation, which was rescued when curli biogenesis or RpoS function, respectively, was restored. Complementation of a nonaggregative variant with RpoS also conferred curli production and aggregation. These observations were supported by Western blotting with an anti-CsgA antibody. Immunomicroscopy revealed that curli were undetectable on the cells of the nonaggregative variant and the RpoS mutant but were present in large quantities in the intercellular matrix of the assemblages formed by aggregative strains. Sequence analysis of rpoS in the aggregative strain and its variant showed a single substitution of threonine for asparagine at amino acid 124. Our results indicate that the multicellular behavior of STEC O111 is RpoS dependent via positive regulation of curli production. Aggregation may confer a fitness advantage in O111 outbreak strains under stressful conditions in hydrodynamic environments along the food production chain and in the host, while the occurrence of nonaggregative variants may allow the cell population to adapt to conditions benefiting a planktonic lifestyle.
