Growth dependent expression of s. aureus mssa476

ABSTRACT: Survival and pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus in the host requires the ability to respond to changes. Therefore, tight regulation of gene expression via various regulators is essential. Also, the organization of genes in operons is of influence on the regulation of gene expression. Knowledge of gene expression under different conditions and the ability to accurately predict operons are important steps towards understanding the transcriptional regulation, function and pathogenesis. A whole genome Agilent microarray was developed for the highly virulent, community-acquired MSSA476.During standard growth in a defined medium, we were able to determine four basic gene expression patterns of S. aureus for both virulence and non-virulence genes. In addition, we predicted operon structures by calculating Pearson correlation coefficients of the transcriptional profiles for all adjacent probes over all time points and replicas. In this study, we have set a basis for the knowledge on gene expression of MSSA476 during growth. Moreover, the correlation of time-dependent transcriptional profiles of adjacent probes seems to be a promising approach to predict operon structures.

Five separate cultures of S. aureus mssa476 were grown. Of each replicate culture, samples were taken at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9 h post inoculation (p.i.). In total, this amounts to 35 samples (7 time points in 5 replicates).

Condition-Specific Mapping of Operons (COSMO) Using Dynamic and Static Genome Data

Project description:An operon is a set of adjacent genes which are transcribed into a single messenger RNA. Operons allow prokaryotes to efficiently circumvent environmental stresses. It is estimated that about 60% of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome is arranged into operons, which makes them interesting drug targets in the face of emerging drug resistance. We therefore developed COSMO - a tool for operon prediction in M. tuberculosis using RNA-seq data. We analyzed four algorithmic parameters and benchmarked COSMO against two top performing operon predictors. COSMO outperformed both predictors in its accuracy and in its ability to distinguish operons activated under distinct conditions.

RNase Y of Staphylococcus aureus and its role in the activation of virulence genes

Project description:RNase Y of Bacillus subtilis is a key member of the degradosome and important for bulk mRNA turnover. In contrast to B. subtilis, the RNase Y homologue (rny/cvfA) of Staphylococcus aureus is not essential for growth. Here we found that RNase Y plays a major role in virulence gene regulation. Accordingly, rny deletion mutants demonstrated impaired virulence in a murine bacteraemia model. RNase Y is important for the processing and stabilisation of the immature transcript of the global virulence regulator system SaePQRS. Moreover, RNase Y is involved in the activation of virulence gene expression at the promoter level. This control is independent of both the virulence regulator agr and the saePQRS processing and may be mediated by small RNAs some of which were shown to be degraded by RNase Y. Besides this regulatory effect, mRNA levels of several operons were significantly increased in the rny mutant and the half-life of one of these operons was shown to be extremely extended. However, the half-life of many mRNA species was not significantly altered. Thus, RNase Y in S. aureus influences mRNA expression in a tightly controlled regulatory manner and is essential for coordinated activation of virulence genes.

Ascorbic acid-dependent gene expression in Streptococcus pneumoniae and the activator function of the transcriptional regulator UlaR2.

Project description:In this study, we have explored the impact of ascorbic acid on the transcriptome of Streptococcus pneumoniae D39. The expression of several genes and operons, including the ula operon (which has been previously shown to be involved in ascorbic acid utilization), the AdcR regulon (which has been previously shown to be involved in zinc transport and virulence) and a PTS operon (which we denote here as ula2 operon) were altered in the presence of ascorbic acid. The ula2 operon consists of five genes, including the transcriptional activator ulaR2. Our β-galactosidase assay data and transcriptome comparison of the ulaR2 mutant with the wild-type demonstrated that the transcriptional activator UlaR2 in the presence of ascorbic acid activates the expression of the ula2 operon. We further predict a 16-bp regulatory site (5’-ATATTGTGCTCAAATA-3’) for UlaR2 binding in the Pula2. Furthermore, we have explored the effect of ascorbic acid on the expression of the AdcR regulon. Our ICP-MS analysis showed that addition of ascorbic acid to the medium causes zinc starvation in the cell that leads to the activation of the AdcR regulon. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Comparison of the Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 grown in AM17 compared to D39 wild-type grown in M17

Project description:In this study, we have explored the impact of ascorbic acid on the transcriptome of Streptococcus pneumoniae D39. The expression of several genes and operons, including the ula operon (which has been previously shown to be involved in ascorbic acid utilization), the AdcR regulon (which has been previously shown to be involved in zinc transport and virulence) and a PTS operon (which we denote here as ula2 operon) were altered in the presence of ascorbic acid. The ula2 operon consists of five genes, including the transcriptional activator ulaR2. Our M-NM-2-galactosidase assay data and transcriptome comparison of the ulaR2 mutant with the wild-type demonstrated that the transcriptional activator UlaR2 in the presence of ascorbic acid activates the expression of the ula2 operon. We further predict a 16-bp regulatory site (5M-bM-^@M-^Y-ATATTGTGCTCAAATA-3M-bM-^@M-^Y) for UlaR2 binding in the Pula2. Furthermore, we have explored the effect of ascorbic acid on the expression of the AdcR regulon. Our ICP-MS analysis showed that addition of ascorbic acid to the medium causes zinc starvation in the cell that leads to the activation of the AdcR regulon.

Multifaceted stoichiometry control of bacterial operons revealed by data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry

Project description:More than half of the protein-coding genes in bacteria are organized in polycistronic operons composed of two or more genes. Whether the operon organization maintains the stoichiometric expression of the genes within an operon remain under debate. In this study, we performed a label-free data-independent acquisition hyper reaction monitoring mass-spectrometry (HRM-MS) experiment to quantify the Escherichia coli proteome in exponential phase and quantified 93.6% of the cytosolic proteins, covering 67.9% and 56.0% of the translating polycistronic operons in BW25113 and MG1655 strains, respectively. We found the shorter operons tend to be more tightly controlled for stoichiometry than longer operons, and those operons for metabolic pathways are less controlled for stoichiometry compared with operons for protein complexes, illustrating the multifaceted nature of the operon-wise regulation: the operon-wise unified transcriptional level and gene-specific translational level. This multi-level regulation benefits the host by optimizing the efficiency of the productivity of metabolic pathways and maintenance of different types of protein complexes.

Transcription profiling of C. elegans operons

Project description:Caenorhabditis elegans and its relatives are unique among animals, possibly even among eukaryotes, in having operons1. In these regulated multigene transcription units, a polycistronic pre-mRNA is processed to monocistronic mRNAs by 3' end formation and trans-splicing utilizing a special snRNP, the SL2 snRNP2, for downstream mRNAs1. Previously, the correlation between downstream location in an operon and SL2 trans-splicing has been strong, but anecdotal3. Although only 28 operons have been reported previously, the complete sequence of the genome reveals numerous gene clusters4. To determine how many represent operons, we probed full-genome microarrays for SL2-containing mRNAs. We found significant enrichment for about 1200 genes including most of a group of several hundred genes represented by cDNAs that contain SL2 sequence. Analysis of their genomic arrangements indicates that >90% are downstream genes, falling in 790 distinct operons. We conclude that the genome contains at least 1000 operons, 2- 8 genes in length, that contain ~15% of C. elegans genes. Most of the operons have not been reported previously, and numerous examples of co-transcription of genes encoding functionally related proteins are evident. Inspection of the operon list should reveal heretofore unknown functional relationships.
