Project description:To understand the system response to pH changes in the environment, the expression of genes during the pH shift was investigated. Pre-adaptation effects were examined by comparing the effects seen with cells pre-grown in pH 5.1 or pH 6.5 to those occuring after a sudden pH change (pre-grown in pH 6.5, and suspended in buffer of pH 5.1). mRNA of L. lactis MG1363 cells grown at pH 6.5 and suspended in 50 mM KPi buffer, pH 5.1 and of those grown at pH 5.1 and suspended in 50 mM KPi buffer, pH 5.1 were compared. Control experiment was performed with mRNA of cells grown at pH 6.5 and suspended in buffer of pH 6.5 compared to that of cells grown in pH 5.1 and suspended in buffer of 5.1.

Project description:This study describes a transcriptome-phenotype matching approach in which the starter L. lactis MG1363 was fermented under a variety of conditions that differed in the levels of oxygen and/or salt, as well as the fermentation pH and temperature. Samples derived from these fermentations in the exponential phase of bacterial growth were analyzed by full-genome transcriptomics and the assessment of heat and oxidative stress phenotypes. Variations in the fermentation conditions resulted in up to 1000-fold differences in survival during heat and oxidative stress. More specifically, aeration during fermentation induced protection against heat stress, whereas a relatively high fermentation temperature resulted in enhanced robustness towards oxidative stress. Concomitantly, oxygen levels and fermentation temperature induced differential expression of markedly more genes when compared with the other fermentation parameters. Correlation analysis of robustness phenotypes and gene expression levels revealed transcriptome signatures for oxidative and/or heat stress survival, including the metC-cysK operon involved in methionine and cysteine metabolism. To validate this transcriptome-phenotype association we grew L. lactis MG1363 in the absence of cysteine which led to enhanced robustness towards oxidative stress. Conclusions Overall, we demonstrated the importance of careful selection of fermentation parameters prior to industrial processing of starter cultures. Furthermore, established stress genes as well as novel genes were associated with robustness towards heat and/or oxidative stress. Assessment of the expression levels of this group of genes could function as an indicator for enhanced selection of fermentation parameters resulting in improved robustness during spray drying. The increased robustness after growth without cysteine appeared to confirm the role of expression of the metC-cysK operon as an indicator of robustness and suggests that sulfur amino acid metabolism plays a pivotal role in oxidative stress survival.

Project description:Since the 1970s, galactose metabolism in Lactococcus lactis has been in debate. Different studies led to diverse outcomes making it difficult to conclude whether galactose uptake was PEP- or ATP- dependent and decide what the exact connection was between galactose and lactose uptake and metabolism. It was shown that some Lactococcus strains possess two galactose-specific systems - a permease and a PTS, even if they lack the lactose utilization plasmid, proving that a lactose-independent PTSGal exists. However, the PTSGal transporter was never identified. Here, with the help of transcriptome analyses and genetic knock-out mutants, we reveal the identities of two low-affinity galactose PTSs. A novel plant-niche-related PTS component Llmg_0963 forming a hybrid transporter Llmg_0963PtcBA and a glucose/mannose-specific PTS are shown to be involved in galactose transport in L. lactis MG1363.

Project description:Lactic acid bacteria are Gram-positive bacteria used throughout the world in many industrial applications for their acidification, flavor and texture formation attributes. One of the species, Lactococcus lactis, is employed for the production of fermented milk products like cheese, buttermilk and quark. It ferments lactose to lactic acid and, thus, helps improve the shelf life of the products. Many physiological and transcriptome studies have been performed in L. lactis in order to comprehend and improve its biotechnological assets. Using large amounts of transcriptome data to understand and predict the behavior of biological processes in bacterial or other cell types is a complex task. Gene networks enable predicting gene behavior and function in the context of transcriptionally linked processes. We reconstruct and present the gene co-expression network (GCN) for the most widely studied L. lactis strain, MG1363, using publicly available transcriptome data. Several methods exist to generate and judge the quality of GCNs. Different reconstruction methods lead to networks with varying structural properties, consequently altering gene clusters. We compared the structural properties of the MG1363 GCNs generated by five methods, namely Pearson correlation, Spearman correlation, GeneNet, Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), and Sparse PArtial Correlation Estimation (SPACE). Using SPACE, we generated an L. lactis MG1363 GCN and assessed its quality using modularity and structural and biological criteria. The L. lactis MG1363 GCN has structural properties similar to those of the gold-standard networks of Escherichia coli K-12 and Bacillus subtilis 168. We showcase that the network can be used to mine for genes with similar expression profiles that are also generally linked to the same biological process.

Project description:Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 and its parent MG1363 are the most commonly used lactic acid bacteria for expression and physiological studies. We noted unexpected but significant differences in the growth behaviors of both strains. We sequenced the entire genomes of the original NZ9000 and MG1363 strains using an ultradeep sequencing strategy. The analysis of the L. lactis NZ9000 genome yielded 79 differences, mostly point mutations, with the annotated genome sequence of L. lactis MG1363. Resequencing of the MG1363 strain revealed that 73 out of the 79 differences were due to errors in the published sequence. Comparative transcriptomic studies revealed several differences in the regulation of genes involved in sugar fermentation, which can be explained by two specific mutations in a region of the ptcC promoter with a key role in the regulation of cellobiose and glucose uptake.
