Pseudovibriamides from Pseudovibrio marine sponge bacteria promote swarming motility via transcriptional modulation

ABSTRACT: Pseudovibrio a-Proteobacteria have been repeatedly isolated from marine sponges and proposed to be beneficial to the host. Bacterial motility is known to contribute to host colonization. We have previously identified pseudovibriamides A and B, produced in culture by Pseudovibrio brasiliensis Ab134, and shown that pseudovibriamide A promotes flagellar motility. Pseudovibriamides are encoded in a hybrid nonribosomal peptide synthetase-polyketide synthase gene cluster that also includes several accessory genes. Pseudovibriamide A is a linear heptapeptide and pseudovibriamide B is a nonadepsipeptide derived from pseudovibriamide A. Here we define the borders of the pseudovibriamides gene cluster, assign function to biosynthetic genes using reverse genetics and test the hypothesis that pseudovibriamides impact motility by modulating gene transcription. RNA-seq transcriptomic analyses of strains having different compositions of pseudovibriamides suggested that both pseudovibriamides A and B affect genes potentially involved in motility, and that a compensatory mechanism is at play in mutants that produce only pseudovibriamide A, resulting in comparable swarming motility as the wild type. The data gathered suggest that pseudovibriamides A and B have opposite roles in modulating a subset of genes, with pseudovibriamide B having a primary effect in gene activation, and pseudovibriamide A on inhibition. Finally, we observed many differentially expressed genes (up to 29% of the total gene number) indicating that pseudovibriamides have a global effect on transcription that goes beyond motility.

Peptide 1018 disrupts swarming and the swarming-associated, anr-mediated metabolic program of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen found ubiquitously in the environment. Responsible for considerable human morbidity and mortality, particularly in nosocomial infections and individuals with cystic fibrosis, P. aeruginosa can adapt to surface growth by undergoing swarming motility. In P. aeruginosa, swarming motility is a rapid multicellular movement that occurs on soft surfaces of appropriate viscosity with amino acids as a nitrogen source. Here we tested the small synthetic host defense peptide, innate defense regulator 1018, and found that it inhibited swarming motility at concentrations as low as 0.75 μg/ml, well below the MIC for planktonic cells. A screen of the PA14 transposon insertion mutant library revealed twenty-nine mutants that demonstrated partial tolerance to 1018 under swarming conditions. Two of these mutants, in the genes anr and rhlB (a regulator of anaerobic metabolism and protein involved in rhamnolipid production, respectively), were complemented to restore susceptibility to 1018. RNA-Seq of peptide-treated cells under swarming conditions revealed the dysregulation of 1,190 genes compared to the untreated swarm front, and 67% of these genes were similarly dysregulated at the untreated swarm centre. In contrast, expression of 70 Anr-regulated genes was upregulated by peptide treatment, and 45 genes showed differential or opposite regulation of expression in peptide-treated and swarm centre cells. Many transcriptional regulators required for swarming were dysregulated in peptide-treated cells, indicative of a mechanism by which 1018 may inhibit swarming motility. Overall, this study illustrates a use for peptide 1018 in inhibiting swarming surface motility, an important bacterial adaptation.

Broth-cultured vs swarming-phase P. mirabilis

Project description:Swarming motility by the urinary tract pathogen Proteus mirabilis has been a long-studied, but little understood phenomenon. On agar, a P. mirabilis colony grows outward in a bullseye pattern formed by consecutive waves of rapid swarming followed by consolidation into shorter cells. To examine differential gene expression in these growth phases, a microarray, constructed based on the completed genome sequence and annotation, was undertaken. RNA from 1) broth-cultured, or 2) swarming cells was extracted to assess transcription during each of these growth states.

Expression analysis of the gacS mutant of Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25

Project description:Pseudomonas species are ubiquitous in plant-associated environments and produce an array of volatiles, enzymes and antimicrobials. The biosynthesis of many metabolites is regulated by the GacS/GacA two-component regulatory system. Transcriptome analysis of Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 revealed that 702 genes were differentially regulated (fold change>4, P<0.0001) in a gacS::Tn5 mutant, with 300 and 402 genes up- and down-regulated, respectively. Genes that were significantly down-regulated are involved in viscosin biosynthesis (viscABC), protease production (aprA), motility, biofilm formation, and secretory systems. Genes that were significantly up-regulated are involved in siderophore biosynthesis and oxidative stress. In contrast to previous studies with gac-mutants of other Pseudomonas species/strains, the gacS mutant of SBW25 inhibited growth of oomycete, fungal and bacterial pathogens significantly more than parental strain SBW25. A potential candidate for this enhanced antimicrobial activity was a large nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene cluster predicted to encode for an 8-amino-acid ornicorrugatin-like peptide. Site-directed mutagenesis of an NRPS gene in this cluster, however, did not lead to a reduction in the antimicrobial activity of the gacS mutant. Collectively these results indicate that a mutation in the GacS/GacA regulatory system causes major transcriptional changes in P. fluorescens SBW25 and significantly enhances its antimicrobial activities by yet unknown mechanisms.

Inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa swarming motility by 1-naphthol and other bicyclic compounds bearing hydroxyl group.

Project description:Many bacteria convert bicyclic compounds, such as indole and naphthalene, to oxidized compounds, including hydroxyindoles and naphthols. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a ubiquitous bacterium that inhabits diverse environments, shows pathogenicity against animals, plants and other microorganisms, and increasing evidence has shown that several bicyclic compounds alter the virulence-related phenotypes of P. aeruginosa. Here, we revealed that hydroxyindoles (4- and 5-hydroxyindoles) and naphthalene derivatives bearing hydroxyl groups specifically inhibit swarming motility but have minor effects on other motilities, including swimming and twitching, in P. aeruginosa. Further analyses using 1-naphthol showed that this effect is also associated with clinically isolated hyper swarming P. aeruginosa cells. Swarming motility is associated with the dispersion of cells from biofilms, and the addition of 1-naphthol maintained biofilm biomass without cell dispersion. Swarming inhibition did not mediate rhamnolipid production, which regulates swarming motility in P. aeruginosa. Transcriptome analyses revealed that 1-naphthol increases gene expression associated with multidrug efflux and represses gene expression associated with aerotaxis and pyochelin, flagellar, and pili synthesis. In the present study, we showed that several bicyclic compounds bearing hydroxyl groups inhibit the swarming motility of P. aeruginosa, and these results provide new insight into the chemical structures that inhibit the specific phenotypes of P. aeruginosa.

Phage Phix174 - Wildtype and engineered proteome

Project description:Sequence overlap between two genes is common across all genomes, with viruses having particularly high proportions of these gene overlaps. The natural biological function and effects on fitness of gene overlaps are not fully understood and their effects on gene cluster and genome-level refactoring are unknown.The model bacteriophage φX174 genome displays complex sequence architecture in which ~26% of nucleotides are involved in encoding more than one gene. In this study we use an engineered φX174 phage containing a genome with all gene overlaps removed. Here we have temporally measured the proteome of a synthetically engineered and wild-type φX174 during infection. We find that almost half of all phage proteins (5/11) have abnormal expression profiles after genome modularisation.
