RNA-seq for PA4595

ABSTRACT: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important human pathogen which uses the type III secretion system 21 (T3SS) as a primary virulence factor to establish infections in humans. The results presented in this 22 report revealed that the ATP-binding protein PA4595 (named ArtR, a Regulator that is an ATP-activated 23 Repressor of T3SS) represses T3SS expression in P. aeruginosa. The expression of T3SS genes, 24 including exoS, exoY, exoT, exsCEBA and exsD-pscB-L, increased significantly when artR was 25 knockout. The effect of ArtR on ExsA is at the transcriptional level, not at the translational level. The 26 regulatory role and cytoplasm localization of ArtR suggest it belongs to the REG sub-family of 27 ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family. Purified GST-tagged ArtR showed ATPase activity in vitro. The 28 conserved aspartate residues in the dual Walker B motifs prove to be essential for the regulatory 29 function of ArtR. The regulation of T3SS by ArtR is unique, which does not involve the known 30 GacS/A-RsmY/Z-RsmA-ExsA pathway or Vfr. This is the first REG subfamily of ATP-binding 31 cassette that is reported to regulate T3SS genes in bacteria. The results specify a novel player in the 32 regulatory networks of T3SS in P. aeruginosa.

Expression data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 treated with phenylacetic acid

Project description:P. aeruginosa is known to cause acute cytotoxicity against various human and animal cells and tissues. We identified bacterial metabolite - phenylacetic acid (PAA) which acts as an inhibitory molecule counteracting its pathogenic infection. Microarray and genetic analyses were conducted to investigate the inhibitory mechanism of the identified inhibitor PAA on bacterial virulence. Microarray analysis revealed that treatment of P. aeruginosa with PAA down-regulated the transcriptional expression of type 3 secretion systems (T3SS) genes and related regulatory genes including rsmA and vfr, which were confirmed by transcriptional and translational analysis. Our findings present a new insight to the puzzle of high-cell-density-modulated virulence attenuation in P. aeruginosa and the regulatory mechanisms of T3SS which is associated with bacterial acute infection.

ChIP-seq and RNA-seq analyses of genomic regulators in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:Regulatory networks including virulence-related transcriptional factors (TFs) determine bacterial pathogenicity in response to different environmental cues. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen of humans, recruits numerous TFs in quorum sensing (QS) system, type III secretion system (T3SS) and Type VI secretion system (T6SS) to mediate the pathogenicity. Although many virulence-related TFs have been illustrated individually, very little is known about their crosstalks and regulatory network. Here, based on chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) and transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq), we primarily focused on understanding the crosstalks of 20 virulence-related TFs, which led to construction of a virulence regulatory network named PAGnet (Pseudomonas aeruginosa Genomic integrated regulatory network), including 82 crosstalk targets. The PAGnet uncovered the intricate mechanism of virulence regulation and revealed master regulators in QS, T3SS and T6SS pathways. In particular, GacA and ExsA showed novel functions in QS and nitrogen metabolism. In addition, an online PAGnet platform was provided to analyze these TFs and more virulence factors. Taken together, the present study revealed the function-specific crosstalks of virulence regulatory network, which might provide new strategies for treating infections in P. aeruginosa in the future.

Molecular Mechanisms of Master Regulator VqsM mediating Quorum-sensing and Antibiotic Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:The Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum-sensing (QS) systems contribute to bacterial homeostasis and pathogenicity. Although the AraC family transcription factor VqsM has been characterized to control the production of virulence factors and QS signaling molecules, its detailed regulatory mechanisms still remain elusive. Here, we report that VqsM directly binds to the lasI promoter region, and thus regulates its expression. To identify additional targets of VqsM in P. aeruginosa PAO1, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) which detected 48 enriched loci harboring VqsM-binding peaks in P. aeruginosa genome. The direct regulation of these genes by VqsM has been confirmed by Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR). A VqsM-binding motif is found by using MEME suite and verified by footprint assays in vitro. In addition, VqsM directly binds to the promoter regions of antibiotic resistance regulator NfxB and the master type III system regulator ExsA. Notably, the vqsM mutant displayed more resistance to two types of antibiotics and promoted bacterial survival in a mouse model, compared to the wild type PAO1 strain. Collectively, this work provides new cues to better understand the detailed regulatory networks of QS systems, T3SS, and antibiotic resistance.

The Fem system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa functions as an ExsA-regulated interspecies signaling pathway

Project description:Bacterial interspecies interactions shape the function and structural dynamics of microbial communities and affect disease progression of polymicrobial infections. Here, we present data suggesting that the FemA-FemR-FemI (Fem) cell surface signaling system in P. aeruginosa serves as an interspecies signaling pathway between P. aeruginosa and Mycobacterium species. The Fem system is regulated by the type three secretion system (T3SS) regulator ExsA. Fem system significantly influenced virulence factors in P. aeruginosa, including the quorum sensing systems, pyocyanin production, biofilm formation and the type six secretion systems (T6SSs). Our study using a Galleria mellonella infection model indicates femA deletion significantly increased the host survival rate while femI over-expression decreased it, demonstrating that the Fem system’s role in bacterial pathogenicity in vivo. We propose that the Fem system functions as an interspecies signaling pathway enabling P. aeruginosa to alter its behaviours in response to the presence of mycobacteria.

Pseudomonas syringae Virulence Regulatory Network construction

Project description:Pseudomonas syringae, a Gram-negative plant pathogen, infects more than 50 crops with its type III secretion system (T3SS) and causes severe economic losses around the world. Although the mechanisms of virulence-associated regulators of P. syringae T3SS have been studied for decades, the crosstalk and network underlying these regulators are still elusive. Previously, we have individually studied a group of T3SS regulators, including AefR, HrpS, and RhpRS. In the present study, we found 4 new T3SS regulator genes (envZ, ompR, tsiS and phoQ) via transposon-mediated mutagenesis. Two-component systems EnvZ and TsiS natively regulate T3SS. In order to uncover the crosstalk between 16 virulence-associated regulators, (including AefR, AlgU, CvsR, GacA, HrpL, HrpR, HrpS, MgrA, OmpR, PhoP, PilR, PsrA, RhpR, RpoN, TsiR and Vfr) in P. syringae, we mapped an intricate network named PSVnet (Pseudomonas syringae Virulence Regulatory Network) by combining differentially expression genes in RNA-seq and binding loci in ChIP-seq of all regulators.

Calcium is a global regulator in Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Project description:Here we probe the global response to calcium in the marine bacterium and pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus by using transcriptome, reporter and phenotypic analyses. Swarming gene expression and motility were enhanced by calcium. Calcium also stimulated expression and function of one of the organismM-bM-^@M-^Ys two type three secretion systems (T3SS1 but not the T3SS2). Although low calcium is an inducing signal for the T3SS of many organisms, calcium stimulation of T3SS has not been reported before. EGTA was also a stimulus for T3SS1 expression and activity; however this appeared to be the consequence of iron rather than calcium chelation. LafK, a key regulator of swarming genes, was found necessary for calcium induction of T3SS1 gene transcription and cytotoxicity. Regulation of swarming and T3SS1 were additionally linked by a negative feedback loop propagated by ExsA. Overexpression of exsA was used to probe the extent of the T3SS1 regulon and verify its coincident induction by calcium and EGTA. The calcium transcriptome analysis revealed a calcium-repressed LysR-type transcriptional regulator; CalR was shown to repress swarming and T3SS1 gene expression. Thus in V. parahaemolyticus, calcium influences gene expression and behavior and seems a signal pertinent for surface colonization and virulence. The gene expression profiles of Vibrio parahaemolyticus cells grown on rich medium or medium supplemented with CaCl2 or EGTA were compared using Affymetrix custom microarrays.
