Project description:A great diversity of small, non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecules with roles in gene regulation and RNA processing have been intensely studied in eukaryotic and bacterial model organisms, yet our knowledge of possible parallel roles for small RNAs (sRNA) in archaea is limited. We employed RNA-seq to identify novel sRNA across multiple species of the hyperthermophilic genus Pyrobaculum, known for unusual RNA gene characteristics. By comparing transcriptional data collected in parallel among five species, we were able to identify conserved RNA genes fitting into known and novel families and found a large increase in the number of conserved C/D box sRNA genes over what had been previously recognized; many of these genes are encoded antisense to protein coding genes. We also used the genome of Pyrobaculum neutrophilum for comparative genomics. The conserved opposition to orthologous genes across the Pyrobaculum genus suggests similarities to other cis-antisense regulatory systems. We used the improved C/D box sRNA annotations to conduct a deep study of the evolution of archaeal C/D box sRNAs by organizing them into 110 families within the Pyrobaculum based on synteny and conservation of guide sequences. We examined gene duplications and rearrangements, including one family that has expanded in a pattern similar to retrotransposed repetitive elements in eukaryotes. New training data provided by this set of C/D box sRNAs enabled creation of an improved search model. Our analyses provide the most comprehensive, dynamic view of C/D box sRNA evolutionary history within a genus, in terms of modification function, feature plasticity, and gene mobility.

Project description:The type of bacterial culture medium is an important consideration during design of any experimental protocol. The aim of this study was to understand the impact of medium choice on bacterial gene expression and physiology by comparing the transcriptome of Salmonella enterica SL1344 after growth in the widely used LB broth or the rationally designed MOPS minimal medium. Transcriptomics showed that after growth in MOPS minimal media, compared to LB, there was increased expression of 42 genes involved in amino acid synthesis and 23 genes coding for ABC transporters. Seven flagellar genes had decreased expression after growth in MOPS minimal medium and this correlated with a decreased motility. In both MOPS minimal medium and MEM expression of genes from SPI-2 was increased and the adhesion of S. Typhimurium to intestinal epithelial cells was higher compared to the levels after growth in LB. However, SL1344 invasion was not significantly altered by growth in either MOPs minimal media or MEM. Expression of SPI-2 was also measured using chromosomal GFP reporter fusions followed by flow cytometry which showed, for the first time, that the reduction in SPI-2 transcript after growth in different media related to a reduction in the proportion of the bacterial population expressing SPI-2. These data highlight the profound differences in the global transcriptome after in vitro growth in different media and show that choice of medium should be considered carefully during experimental design, particularly when virulence related phenotypes are being measured.

Project description:Although proteins and peptides encoded in small open reading frames (ORFs < 100 AA) in microbial genomes can play critical roles as toxins, bacteriocins, transcriptional regulators, signaling molecules, and chaperones, many such ORFs remain annotated as “hypothetical proteins”. In the genome of the hyperthermophilic bacterium, Thermotoga maritima, nearly 2/3 of the 167 small ORFs have no known function. As a strategy for investigating the potential significance of specific small ORFs, growth conditions that could trigger the expression of genes encoding small ORFs were sought. A defined medium supplemented with either 1 or 5 g/L yeast extract was used to track transcriptional response during the transition from exponential to stationary phase.

Project description:The transition between exponential and stationary phase is a natural phenomenon for all bacteria and requires a massive readjustment of the bacterial transcriptome. Exoribonucleases are key enzymes in the transition between the two growth phases. PNPase, RNase R and RNase II are the major degradative exoribonucleases in Escherichia coli. We analysed the whole transcriptome of exponential and stationary phases from the WT and mutants lacking these exoribonucleases (?pnp, ?rnr, ?rnb, and ?rnb?rnr). When comparing the cells from exponential phase with the cells from stationary phase more than 1000 transcripts were differentially expressed, but only 491 core transcripts were common to all strains. There were some differences in the number and transcripts affected depending on the strain, suggesting that exoribonucleases influence the transition between these two growth phases differently. Interestingly, we found that the double mutant RNase II/RNase R is similar to the RNase R single mutant in exponential phase while in stationary phase it seems to be closer to the RNase II single mutant. This is the first global transcriptomic work comparing the roles of exoribonucleases in the transition between exponential and stationary phase.

Project description:BackgroundThe extracellular proteome or secretome of symbiotic bacteria like Rhizobium etli is presumed to be a key element of their infection strategy and survival. Rhizobia infect the roots of leguminous plants and establish a mutually beneficial symbiosis. To find out the possible role of secreted proteins we analyzed the extracellular proteome of R. etli CE3 in the exponential and stationary growth phases in minimal medium, supplemented with succinate-ammonium.ResultsThe extracellular proteins were obtained by phenol extraction and identified by LC-ESI MS/MS. We identified 192 and 191 proteins for the exponential and stationary phases respectively. Using the software Signal P, we predicted signal peptides for 12.95% and 35.60% of the proteins identified in the exponential and stationary phases, respectively, which could therefore be secreted by the Sec pathway. For the exponential growth phase, we found in abundance proteins like the ribosomal proteins, toxins and proteins belonging to the group "defence mechanisms". For the stationary growth phase, we found that the most abundant proteins were those with unknown function, and in many of these we identified characteristic domains of proteases and peptidases.ConclusionsOur study provided the first dataset of the secretome of R. etli and its modifications, which may lead to novel insights into the adaptive response of different stages of growth. In addition, we found a high number of proteins with unknown function; these proteins could be analyzed in future research to elucidate their role in the extracellular proteome of R. etli.

Project description:The three-dimensional (3D) genome structure of an organism or cell is highly relevant to its biological activities, but the availability of 3D genome information for bacteria, especially intracellular pathogens, is still limited. Here, we used Hi-C (high-throughput chromosome conformation capture) technology to determine the 3D chromosome structures of exponential- and stationary-phase Brucella melitensis at a 1-kb resolution. We observed that the contact heat maps of the two B. melitensis chromosomes contain a prominent diagonal and a secondary diagonal. Then, 79 chromatin interaction domains (CIDs) were detected at an optical density at 600 nm (OD600) of 0.4 (exponential phase), with the longest CID being 106 kb and the shortest being 12 kb. Moreover, we obtained 49,363 significant cis-interaction loci and 59,953 significant trans-interaction loci. Meanwhile, 82 CIDs of B. melitensis at an OD600 of 1.5 (stationary phase) were detected, with the longest CID being 94 kb and the shortest being 16 kb. In addition, 25,965 significant cis-interaction loci and 35,938 significant trans-interaction loci were obtained in this phase. Furthermore, we found that as the B. melitensis cells grew from the logarithmic to the plateau phase, the frequency of short-range interactions increased, while that of long-range interactions decreased. Finally, combined analysis of 3D genome and whole-genome transcriptome (RNA-seq) data revealed that the strength of short-range interactions in Chr1 is specifically and strongly correlated with gene expression. Overall, our study provides a global view of the chromatin interactions in the B. melitensis chromosomes, which will serve as a resource for further study of the spatial regulation of gene expression in Brucella. IMPORTANCE The spatial structure of chromatin plays important roles in normal cell functions and in the regulation of gene expression. Three-dimensional genome sequencing has been performed in many mammals and plants, but the availability of such data for bacteria, especially intracellular pathogens, is still limited. Approximately 10% of sequenced bacterial genomes contain more than one replicon. However, how multiple replicons are organized within bacterial cells, how they interact, and whether these interactions help to maintain or segregate these multipartite genomes are unresolved issues. Brucella is a Gram-negative, facultative intracellular, and zoonotic bacterium. Except for Brucella suis biovar 3, Brucella species have two chromosomes. Here, we applied Hi-C technology to determine the 3D genome structures of exponential- and stationary-phase Brucella melitensis chromosomes at a 1-kb resolution. Combined analysis of the 3D genome and RNA-seq data indicated that the strength of short-range interactions in B. melitensis Chr1 is specifically and strongly correlated with gene expression. Our study provides a resource to achieve a deeper understanding of the spatial regulation of gene expression in Brucella.
