High throughput analysis of binding of E. coli Lrp mutants

ABSTRACT: Feast-Famine Response Proteins are a widely conserved class of global regulators in prokaryotes, the most highly studied of which is the E. coli leucine-responsive regulatory protein (Lrp). Lrp senses environmental nutrition status and subsequently regulates up to one-third of the genes in E. coli, either directly or indirectly. Lrp exists predominantly as octamers and hexadecamers (16mers), where leucine is believed to shift the equilibrium towards the octameric state. In this study, we analyzed the effects of three oligomerization state mutants of Lrp in terms of their ability to bind to DNA and regulate gene expression in response to exogenous leucine. We find that oligomerization beyond dimers is required for Lrp’s regulatory activity, and that contrary to prior speculation, exogenous leucine modulates Lrp activity at its target promoters exclusively by inhibiting Lrp binding to DNA. We also find evidence that Lrp binding bridges DNA over length scales of multiple kilobases, revealing a new range of mechanisms for Lrp-mediated transcriptional regulation.

Transcription profiling of sogenic Lrp(+) and Lrp(-) strains in cells growing in steady state in glucose minimal medium, either in the presence or absence of leucine. (Adaptation to famine)

Project description:Bacterial adaptation to nutrient limitation and increased population densities is central to survival and virulence. Surprisingly, <3% of Escherichia coli genes are known to play roles specific to the stationary phase. There is evidence that the leucine-responsive regulatory protein (Lrp) may play an important role in stationary phase, so this study used microarrays representing >98% of E. coli genes to more comprehensively identify those controlled by Lrp. The primary analysis compared isogenic Lrp(+) and Lrp(-) strains in cells growing in steady state in glucose minimal medium, either in the presence or absence of leucine. More than 400 genes were significantly Lrp-responsive under the conditions used. Transcription of 147 genes was lower in Lrp(+) than in Lrp(-) cells whether or not leucine was present; most of these genes were tightly coregulated under several conditions, including a burst of synthesis on transition to stationary phase. This cluster includes 56 of 115 genes already known to play roles in stationary phase. Our results suggest that the actual number of genes induced on entrance into stationary phase is closer to 200 and that Lrp affects nearly three-quarters of them, including genes involved in response to nutrient limitation, high concentrations of organic acids, and osmotic stress.

Proteomic investigation of a mixed microbial culture synthesizing polyhydroxyalkanoates from fermented dairy manure under aerobic feast-famine conditions

Project description:Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are bio-based, biodegradable polyesters that can be produced from organic-rich waste streams using mixed microbial cultures. To maximize PHA production, mixed microbial cultures may be enriched for PHA-producing bacteria with a high storage capacity through the imposition of cyclic, aerobic feast-famine conditions in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). Though enrichment SBRs have been extensively investigated a bulk solutions-level, little evidence at the proteome level is available to describe the observed SBR behavior to guide future SBR optimization strategies. As such, the purpose of this investigation was to characterize proteome dynamics of a mixed microbial culture in an SBR operated under aerobic feast-famine conditions using fermented dairy manure as the feedstock for PHA production. At the beginning of the SBR cycle, excess PHA precursors were provided to the mixed microbial culture (i.e., feast), after which followed a long duration devoid of exogenous substrate (i.e., famine). Two-dimensional electrophoresis was used to separate protein mixtures during a complete SBR cycle, and proteins of interest were identified.

Escherichia coli Lrp regulates one-third of the genome via direct, cooperative, and indirect paths

Project description:The global regulator Lrp plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, virulence and motility in response to environmental conditions. Lrp has previously been shown to activate or repress approximately 10% of genes in Escherichia coli. However, the full spectrum of targets, and how Lrp acts to regulate them, has stymied earlier study. We have combined matched ChIP-seq and RNA sequencing under nine physiological conditions to map the binding and regulatory activity of Lrp as it directs responses to nutrient abundance. In addition to identifying hundreds of novel Lrp targets, we observe two new global trends: first, that Lrp will often bind to promoters in a poised position under conditions when it has no regulatory activity, and second, that nutrient levels induce a global shift in the equilibrium between non-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding. The overall regulatory behavior of Lrp, which as we now show regulates 35% of E. coli genes directly or indirectly under at least one condition, thus arises from the interaction between changes in Lrp binding specificity and cooperative action with other regulators.

ChIP-chip of E. coli K-12 MG1655 with antibody against ArgR-8myc, Lrp-8myc, and TrpR-8myc under various conditions.

Project description:We integrated transcription factor binding regions and mRNA transcript abundance to elucidate the ArgR, Lrp, and TrpR regulon experimentally. To measure transcription factor binding at a genome scale, we employed a ChIP-chip method to derivative strains of E. coli K-12 MG1655 harboring ArgR-8myc, Lrp-8myc, or TrpR-8myc under various conditions. A twelve ChIP-chip study under six separate culture conditions. The high-density oligonucleotide tiling arrays used were consisted of 371,034 oligonucleotide probes spaced 25 bp apart (25-bp overlap between two probes) across the E. coli genome.
