RNA-Seq analysis for the study "tRNA epitranscriptome determines pathogenicity of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa"

ABSTRACT: The success of bacterial pathogens depends on the coordinated expression of virulence determinants. Regulatory circuits that drive pathogenesis are complex, multilayered, and incompletely understood. Here, we reveal that alterations in tRNA modifications define pathogenic phenotypes in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We demonstrate that the enzymatic activity of GidA leads to the introduction of a carboxymethylaminomethyl modification in selected tRNAs. Modifications at the wobble uridine base (cmnm5U34) of the anticodon drives translation of transcripts containing rare codons. Specifically, in P. aeruginosa the presence of GidA-dependent tRNA modifications modulates expression of genes encoding virulence regulators, leading to a cellular proteomic shift toward pathogenic and well-adapted physiological states. Our approach of profiling the consequences of chemical tRNA modifications is general in concept. It provides a paradigm of how environmentally driven tRNA modifications govern gene expression programs and regulate phenotypic outcomes responsible for bacterial adaption to challenging habitats prevailing in the host niche.

The modification landscape of P. aeruginosa tRNAs

Project description:RNA modifications have a substantial impact on tRNA function. While modifications in the anticodon loop play an important role in translational fidelity, modifications in the tRNA core influence tRNA structural stability. In bacteria, tRNA modifications play important roles in the stress response and expression of virulence factors. While tRNA modifications are well characterized in a few model organisms, our knowledge of tRNA modifications in human pathogens, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa is lacking. Here we leveraged two orthogonal approaches to build a reference landscape of tRNA modifications in E. coli, which we used to identify tRNA modifications in P. aeruginosa. We determined conservation for many modifications between the two organisms. We also identified potential sites of tRNA modification in P. aeruginosa tRNA that are not present in E. coli. One of these sites is found at the same positions as acacp3U, a modification previously identified in Vibrio cholerae. Identifying which modifications are present on different tRNAs will uncover the pathways impacted by the different tRNA modifying enzymes, some of which may play roles in determining virulence and pathogenicity.

Arsenic toxicity is regulated by queuine availability and oxidation-induced reprogramming of the human tRNA epitranscriptome

Project description:Cells respond to environmental stress by regulating gene expression at the level of both transcription and translation. The ~50 modified ribonucleotides of the human epitranscriptome contribute to the latter, with mounting evidence that dynamic regulation of tRNA wobble modifications leads to selective translation of stress response proteins from codon-biased genes. Here we show that the response of human HepG2 cells to arsenite exposure is regulated by the availability of queuine, a micronutrient and essential precursor to the wobble modification queuosine (Q) on tRNAs reading GUN codons. Among oxidizing and alkylating agents at equitoxic concentrations, arsenite exposure caused an oxidant-specific increase in Q that correlated with up-regulation of proteins from codon-biased genes involved in energy metabolism. Limiting queuine increased arsenite-induced cell death, altered translation, increased reactive oxygen species levels, and caused mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition to revealing a new epitranscriptomic facet of arsenite toxicity and response, our results highlight the mechanistic links between environmental exposures, stress tolerance, and micronutrients.

A highly conserved tRNA modification contributes to C. albicans filamentation and virulence

Project description:tRNA modifications play important roles in maintaining translation accuracy in all domains of life. Disruptions in the tRNA modification machinery, especially of the anticodon stem loop, can be lethal for many bacteria and lead to a broad range of phenotypes in baker’s yeast. Very little is known about the function of tRNA modifications in host-pathogen interactions, where rapidly changing environments and stresses require fast adaptations. We found that two closely related fungal pathogens of humans, the highly pathogenic Candida albicans and its much less pathogenic sister species, Candida dubliniensis, differ in the function of a tRNA-modifying enzyme. This enzyme, Hma1, exhibits speciesspecific effects on the ability of the two fungi to grow in the hypha morphology, which is central to their virulence potential. We show that Hma1 has tRNA-threonylcarbamoyladenosine dehydratase activity, and its deletion alters ribosome occupancy, especially at 37°C—the body temperature of the human host. A C. albicans HMA1 deletion mutant also shows defects in adhesion to and invasion into human epithelial cells and shows reduced virulence in a fungal infection model. This links tRNA modifications to host-induced filamentation and virulence of one of the most important fungal pathogens of humans.

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.
