TnSeq of Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF Tn mutants in biofilm and planktonic samples

ABSTRACT: Enterococcus faecalis is a common commensal organism and a prolific nosocomial pathogen that causes biofilm-associated infections. Numerous E. faecalis OG1RF genes required for biofilm formation have been identified, but few studies have compared genetic determinants of biofilm formation and biofilm morphology across multiple conditions. Here, we cultured transposon (Tn) libraries in CDC biofilm reactors in two different media and used Tn sequencing (TnSeq) to identify core and accessory biofilm determinants, including many genes that are poorly characterized or annotated as hypothetical. Multiple secondary assays (96-well plates, submerged Aclar, and MultiRep biofilm reactors) were used to validate phenotypes of new biofilm determinants.

Comparison of methods to generate a pooled Enterococcus faecalis Tn library from arrayed library plates

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine how the method of pooling (combining mutants) for bacteral Tn libraries affected mutant distribution. Previously we generated a pooled version of a~6,800 Tn mutant library in Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF by plating and scraping individual mutants. Here, we combined liquid cultures grown in deep well plates. DNA from the new pooled library was extracted, and TnSeq was used to compare mutant distribution between the old (plate scraping) and new (liquid pooling) Tn library formats. This is important because it will guide best practices for handling large collections of bacterial mutants.

Transcriptomes of Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF and OG1RF Δbph in planktonic culture

Project description:Liquid cultures of Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF and OG1RF Δbph were grown in tryptic soy broth without added dextrose (TSB-D) for 2 and 4 hr. At each time point, the transcriptomes were compared to identify differentially expressed genes in the Δbph mutant.

Investigating PCR bias in TnSeq

Project description:As transposon sequencing (TnSeq) assays have become prolific in the microbiology field, it is of interest to scrutinize their potential drawbacks. TnSeq results are determined by counting transposon insertions following the PCR-based enrichment and subsequent deep sequencing of transposon insertions. Here we explore the possibility that PCR amplification of transposon insertions in a TnSeq library skews the results by introducing bias into the detection and/or enumeration of insertions. We compared the detection and frequency of mapped insertions when altering the number of PCR cycles in the enrichment step. In addition, we devised and validated a novel, PCR-free TnSeq method where the insertions are enriched via CRISPR/Cas9-targeted transposon cleavage and subsequent Oxford Nanopore sequencing. These PCR-based and PCR-free experiments demonstrate that, overall, PCR amplification does not significantly bias the results of the TnSeq assay insofar as insertions in the majority of genes represented in our library were similarly detected regardless of PCR cycle number and whether or not PCR amplification was employed. However, the detection of a small subset of genes which had been previously described as essential is indeed sensitive to the number of PCR cycles. We conclude that PCR-based enrichment of transposon insertions in a TnSeq assay is reliable but researchers interested in profiling essential genes should carefully weigh the number of amplification cycles employed in their library preparation protocols. In addition, we present a PCR-free TnSeq alternative that is comparable to traditional PCR-based methods although the latter remain superior owing to their accessibility and high sequencing depth.
