Project description:In our study, we found that lack of tmRNA affects the biofilm formation in Bacillus subtilis, which has important research significance. Then, we obtained a revertant strain MB from tmRNA mutant strain. And MB strain could restore biofilm production capacity. Therefore, the transcriptomes of the three strains were sequenced. Based on the statistical analysis of gene expression (P < 0.05), there were 756 genes up regulated while 992 genes down regulated by at least two folds when comparing TM to WT. Secondly, there were 974 genes up regulated while 563 genes down regulated by at least two folds when comparing MB to TM. And there were 179 genes up regulated while 307 genes down regulated by at least two folds when comparing MB to WT.

Project description:The formation of Listeria monocytogenes biofilms contributes to persistent contamination in food processing facilities. A microarray comparison of L. monocytogenes between the transcriptome of the strong biofilm forming strain (Bfms) Scott A and the weak biofilm forming (Bfmw) strain F2365 was conducted to identify genes potentially involved in biofilm formation. Among 951 genes with significant difference in expression between the two strains, a GntR-family response regulator encoding gene (LMOf2365_0414), designated lbrA, was found to be highly expressed in Scott A relative to F2365. A Scott A lbrA-deletion mutant, designated AW3, formed biofilm to a much lesser extent as compared to the parent strain by a rapid attachment assay and scanning electron microscopy. Complementation with lbrA from Scott A restored the Bfms phenotype in the AW3 derivative. A second microarray assessment using the lbrA deletion mutant AW3 and the wild type Scott A revealed a total of 304 genes with expression significantly different between the two strains, indicating the potential regulatory role of LbrA in L. monocytogenes. A cloned copy of Scott A lbrA was unable to confer enhanced biofilm forming potential in F2365, suggesting that additional factors contributed to weak biofilm formation by F2365. Findings from the study may lead to new strategies to modulate biofilm formation.

Findings from the study may lead to new strategies to modulate biofilm formation. Two comparisons were performed between 1) strong biofilm former Listeria monocytogenes strain ScottA versus weak biofilm former Listeria monocytogenes strain F2365; 2) Listeria monocytogenes ScottA LbrA deletion mutant strain versus Listeria monocytogenes ScottA. Four replicates were loaded for the first comparison and two replicates were loaded for the second comparison.

Project description:The polyamine spermidine is not required for normal planktonic growth of Bacillus subtilis but is essential for robust biofilm formation. In a spermidine-deficient mutant of B. subtilis, the structural analogue norspermidine but not homospermidine restored biofilm formation. Intracellular biosynthesis of another spermidine analogue aminopropylcadaverine from exogenously supplied homoagmatine also restored biofilm formation. The differential ability of C-methylated spermidine analogues to replace the function of spermidine in biofilm formation indicated that the aminopropyl side of spermidine is more sensitive to C-methylation. Together, these data indicate that the aminopropyl side of spermidine is essential for its function in biofilm formation, and that the length and symmetry of the molecule is not critical. Transcriptomic analysis of a spermidine-depleted speD mutant of B. subtilis uncovered a nitrogen, methionine and S-adenosylmethionine sufficiency response, resulting in repression of gene expression related to purine catabolism, methionine and S-adenosylmethionine biosynthesis, methionine salvage, and there were indications that membrane status was altered. Consistent with the requirement for spermidine in biofilm formation, expression of the operons for production of the exopolysaccharide and TasA protein components of the biofilm matrix was reduced, as was expression of regulator SinR antagonist slrR. Single-cell analysis indicated that the effect of spermidine depletion was to decrease the number of cells expressing the biofilm matrix operons. Deletion of sinR or ectopic expression of slrR in the spermidine-deficient ΔspeD background restored biofilm formation, indicating that spermidine is required to promote expression of the biofilm regulator slrR.

Project description:To reveal the transcriptional profiles of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae under biofilm and planktonic growth, we established a biofilm-forming culture method and constructed a mutant strain Δpga with defect in biofilm formation. Wild-type and Δpga mutant strains of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strain 4074 were cultured in bottles with shaking for planktonic (WT_PK) and in microplates in static status for biofilm (WT_BF, Δpga), respectively. The bacteria in logarithmic growth period of different culture groups were collected for RNA seq.

Project description:Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell density regulated communication system that bacteria use to coordinate activities, including biofilm formation, involved in colonization and pathogenesis. We have previously shown that inactivation of the QS master regulator LitR attenuates the Vibrio (Allivibrio) salmonicida strain LFI1238 in a fish model. In this work we show that LFI1238 as well as a panel of naturally occurring V. salmonicidia strains are poor biofilm producers. Inactivation of litR strongly enhances medium and temperature dependent adhesion, rugose colony morphology and biofilm formation. Chemical treatment and scanning electron microscopy of the biofilm identified an extracellular matrix consisting mainly of protein filaments and polysaccharides. Further, microarray analysis of planktonic and biofilm cells identified a number of genes regulated by LitR, and among these were homologues of the Vibrio fischeri symbiosis polysaccharide (syp) genes. Disruption of syp alleviated the different phenotypes regulated by LitR in V. salmonicida. Hence, LitR is a repressor of syp expression that is necessary for rugose colony morphology, adhesion and biofilm formation, three phenotypes of the DlitR mutant that are expressed at temperatures below 12M-BM-:C. The DlitR mutant mimics low cell density behavior suggesting that these phenotypes are important during the initial steps of colonization. Although the syp operon in V. salmonicida shows identical gene synteny to the one in the squid symbiont V. fischeri, its regulation is probably more related to vibrio polysaccharide (vps) expression in the human pathogenic Vibrio cholera which is controlled by the LitR homologue HapR. V. salmonicida wild type strain LFI1238 (control) and the isogenic DlitR mutant were grown as statical biofilm in SWT medium, at 4M-BM-0C and harvested after 72 hours. Biological replicates for each sample: 4 wild type, 4 DlitR mutant (including one dye swap), independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.

Project description:Biofilm formation is an important virulence trait of the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans. We have combined gene overexpression, strain barcoding and microarray profiling to screen a library of 531 C. albicans conditional overexpression strains (~10% of the genome) for genes affecting biofilm development in mixed-population experiments. The overexpression of 16 genes increased strain occupancy within a multi-strain biofilm, whereas overexpression of 4 genes decreased it. The set of 16 genes was significantly enriched for those encoding predicted glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-modified proteins, namely Ihd1/Pga36, Phr2, Pga15, Pga19, Pga22, Pga32, Pga37, Pga42 and Pga59; eight of which have been classified as pathogen-specific. Validation experiments using either individually- or competitively-grown overexpression strains revealed that the contribution of these genes to biofilm formation was variable and stage-specific. Deeper functional analysis of PGA59 and PGA22 at a single-cell resolution using atomic force microscopy showed that overexpression of either gene increased C. albicans ability to adhere to an abiotic substrate. However, unlike PGA59, PGA22 overexpression led to cell cluster formation that resulted in increased sensitivity to shear forces and decreased ability to form a single-strain biofilm. Within the multi-strain environment provided by the PGA22-non overexpressing cells, PGA22-overexpressing cells were protected from shear forces and fitter for biofilm development. Ultrastructural analysis, genome-wide transcript profiling and phenotypic analyses in a heterologous context suggested that PGA22 affects cell adherence through alteration of cell wall structure and/or function. Taken together, our findings reveal that several novel predicted GPI-modified proteins contribute to the cooperative behaviour between biofilm cells and are important participants during C. albicans biofilm formation. Moreover, they illustrate the power of using signature tagging in conjunction with gene overexpression for the identification of novel genes involved in processes pertaining to C. albicans virulence.
