Synthesis of alternative membrane-bound redox carriers during aerobic growth of Escherichia coli in the presence of potassium cyanide.

ABSTRACT: Aerobic growth of Escherichia coli with an oxidizable substrate as carbon source in the presence of low concentrations of KCN leads to the synthesis and integration into the membrane of menaquinone and cytochromes b558, a1 and d in addition to the redox carriers normally present under aerobic growth conditions, namely ubiquinone and cytochromes b562, b556 and o. The results are discussed with reference to other phenotypic and genotypic modifications to the electron-transport chains of E. coli.

Purification, crystallization and structure determination of native GroEL from Escherichia coli lacking bound potassium ions.

Project description:GroEL is a member of the ATP-dependent chaperonin family that promotes the proper folding of many cytosolic bacterial proteins. The structures of GroEL in a variety of different states have been determined using X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. In this study, a 3.02 A crystal structure of the native GroEL complex from Escherichia coli is presented. The complex was purified and crystallized in the absence of potassium ions, which allowed evaluation of the structural changes that may occur in response to cognate potassium-ion binding by comparison to the previously determined wild-type GroEL structure (PDB code 1xck), in which potassium ions were observed in all 14 subunits. In general, the structure is similar to the previously determined wild-type GroEL crystal structure with some differences in regard to temperature-factor distribution.

RNA-Seq of Escherichia coli after anaerobic-aerobic transition

Project description:E. coli K12 strain W3110 was used in this study. Cells were grown anaerobically in defined medium at pH7 and 37°C in a stirred 3-liter bioreactor until the culture reached an OD (600nm) of 3. At that point the first sample was drawn and aeration was started subsequently at 1l/min. 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10 min after the onset of aeration additional samples were drawn.

Potassium tellurite exerts its toxicity on ribosome in Escherichia coli

Project description:Purpose: We use the ribosome profiling protocol to understand why EF4 confers resistance to tellurite and how tellurite affects ribosome. Methods: We used ribosome profiling and transcriptomic data to analyze mainly by plastid software. The ribosome were purified by sucrose gradient separation. Results: Using polysome profile and sequencing data, we found that tellurite disables the ribosome subunits to form a functional 70S ribosome and reduces the ribosome density after tellurite exposure. We also found that tellurite influences the ribosome reaching to stop codon. Tellurite shortened the ribosome protected fragment, this process was mediated by EF4. EF4 mediated more gene expression including these known tellurite resistance genes to confer tellurite resistance. Tellurite also induced many differential gene expression. Conclusions: Tellurite exerts its toxicity on ribosome by disabling 70S ribosome formation, reaching to stop codon, and inducing differential gene expression.

Transcriptomic measurement of Escherichia coli under aerobic and microaerobic conditions

Project description:A total of 4388/4385 genes' transcripts (under aerobic/microaerobic condition, respectively) were identified. Among them, 105 and 71 transcripts were confidently determined to be up- or down-regulated by more than 4 folds with false discovery rate (FDR) p value more than 1, respectively. Additionally, 49 known regulatory non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) were detected, and 18 sRNAs were differentially abundant (more than 1.5 fold-change). Functional characterizations were revealed that the major differential expression genes were involved in (i) acid response/cation homeostasis (ex: gadAXW, and hdeAB-yhiD operons), (ii) cell adhesion/biofilm formation (ex; fimAICDFGH, and csgDEFG operons), (iii) electron transportation (ex: cydAB, and nrdHIEF operons), (iv) ion transporter (ex: efeU, and efeOB operons), (v) Iron-sulfur cluster assembly (ex: iscRSUA and sufABCDSE operons), and (vi) the undoubtable anaerobic respiration/fermentation (ex: hyaABCDEF and hybOABCDEFG operons) & aerobic respiration (ex: sdhDAB and sucABCDSE operons).

Structure of Escherichia coli Hfq bound to polyriboadenylate RNA.

Project description:Hfq is a small, highly abundant hexameric protein that is found in many bacteria and plays a critical role in mRNA expression and RNA stability. As an "RNA chaperone," Hfq binds AU-rich sequences and facilitates the trans annealing of small RNAs (sRNAs) to their target mRNAs, typically resulting in the down-regulation of gene expression. Hfq also plays a key role in bacterial RNA decay by binding tightly to polyadenylate [poly(A)] tracts. The structural mechanism by which Hfq recognizes and binds poly(A) is unknown. Here, we report the crystal structure of Escherichia coli Hfq bound to the poly(A) RNA, A(15). The structure reveals a unique RNA binding mechanism. Unlike uridine-containing sequences, which bind to the "proximal" face, the poly(A) tract binds to the "distal" face of Hfq using 6 tripartite binding motifs. Each motif consists of an adenosine specificity site (A site), which is effected by peptide backbone hydrogen bonds, a purine nucleotide selectivity site (R site), and a sequence-nondiscriminating RNA entrance/exit site (E site). The resulting implication that Hfq can bind poly(A-R-N) triplets, where R is a purine nucleotide and N is any nucleotide, was confirmed by binding studies. Indeed, Hfq bound to the oligoribonucleotides (AGG)(8), (AGC)(8), and the shorter (A-R-N)(4) sequence, AACAACAAGAAG, with nanomolar affinities. The abundance of (A-R-N)(4) and (A-R-N)(5) triplet repeats in the E. coli genome suggests additional RNA targets for Hfq. Further, the structure provides insight into Hfq-mediated sRNA-mRNA annealing and the role of Hfq in RNA decay.

Thermosensing function of the Escherichia coli redox sensor Aer.

Project description:Escherichia coli chemoreceptors can sense changes in temperature for thermotaxis. Here we found that the aerotaxis transducer Aer, a homolog of chemoreceptors lacking a periplasmic domain, mediates thermoresponses. We propose that thermosensing by the chemoreceptors is a general attribute of their highly conserved cytoplasmic domain (or their less conserved transmembrane domain).

Role of wild birds as carriers of multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli and Escherichia vulneris.

Project description:Emergence and distribution of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria in environments pose a risk to human and animal health. A total of 82 isolates of Escherichia spp. were recovered from cloacal swabs of migrating and non-migrating wild birds. All bacterial isolates were identified and characterized morphologically and biochemically. 72% and 50% of isolates recovered from non-migrating and migrating birds, respectively, showed positive congo red dye binding (a virulence factor). Also, hemolysin production (a virulence factor) was showed in 8% of isolates recovered from non-migrating birds and 75% of isolates recovered from migrating birds. All isolates recovered from non-migrating birds were found resistant to Oxacillin while all isolates recovered from migrating birds demonstrated resistance to Oxacillin, Chloramphenicol, Oxytetracycline and Lincomycin. Some bacterial isolates recovered from non-migrating birds and migrating birds exhibited MDR phenotype. The MDR isolates were further characterized by API 20E and 16S rRNA as E. coli and E. vulneris. MDR Escherichia isolates contain ~1-5 plasmids of high-molecular weights. Accordingly, wild birds could create a potential threat to human and animal health by transmitting MDR bacteria to water streams and other environmental sources through their faecal residues, and to remote regions by migration.
