Project description:Batch cultures of Wild-type C. jejuni NCTC11168 were grown in 150 ml volumes of Mueller-Hinton broth in 250 ml baffled flasks. Microaerophilic conditions were generated using a MACS-VA500 microaerophilic work station (10 % O2, 10 % CO2, 80 % N2) from Don Whitley Scientific, Ltd which also maintained the growth temperature at 42 ºC. When mid-exponential phase was reached 0.25 mM GSNO was added to half of the cultures. After a 10 minute exposure samples of both treated and untreated cells were harvested into phenol/ethenol to stabilize the RNA and total RNA was purified using Qiagen’s RNeasy Mini kit (as recommended by the suppliers) prior to use in microarray analysis.

When mid-exponential phase was reached 0.25 mM GSNO was added to half of the cultures. After a 10 minute exposure samples of both treated and untreated cells were harvested into phenol/ethenol to stabilize the RNA and total RNA was purified using Qiagenâs RNeasy Mini kit (as recommended by the suppliers) prior to use in microarray analysis. A C. jejuni cgb mutant was grown in two parallel custom-built chemostats based on Sigma Proculture Dynalift spinner flasks with a working volume of 125 ml, and the dilution rate (which at steady state is equal to the specific growth rate) of 0.1 h-1. A gas mix of 10% O2, 10% CO2 and 80% N2 was passed into the head space of the culture vessel at a rate of 0.25 l min-1 to obtain a microaerobic atmosphere, and silicone water jackets maintained the temperature at 42 ºC. The flasks were placed on KMO 2 basic IKA-Werke stirrers (arbitrary setting, 260; Scientific Laboratory Supplies), which gaveeffective transfer of O2 from the gaseous atmosphere to the culture by virtue of a stable vortex. A fresh overflow sample was used to check the pH at the time of harvest (which was consistently between 6.6 and 7) and to ensure that there was no contamination by plating a 20 μl sample onto both nutrient agar plates incubated at 37 °C at atmospheric oxygen, and Mueller-Hinton plates incubated at 42 °C in the microaerophilic work station. When staedy-state was reached, as verified by collecting at least 5 culture volumes, GSNO (final concentration 0.25 mM) was added to one culture. After a further 10 min the 125 ml volume was separated into 3 equal volumes and each was mixed immediately on ice with 3.56 ml 100% ethanol and 185 ml phenol to stabilize the RNA. The cells were subsequently harvested by centrifugation. Total RNA was purified by using a Qiagen RNeasy Mini kit as recommended by the supplier. cDNA synthesis was carried out using 12 µg of starting material, which was primed with 9 µg of pd(N)6 random hexamers (Amersham Biosciences). Reaction mixtures (20 µl) containing 0.5 mM ATP, 0.5 mM TTP, 0.5 mM GTP, 0.2 mM CTP, and 1 mM Cy3- or 1 mM Cy5-dCTP were incubated for 2 h at 42 °C with 200 U of Superscript II RNase H reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). Following synthesis, cDNA was purified by using a PCR purification kit (Qiagen) to remove the unincorporated deoxynucloside triphosphates, fluorescent dye, and primers. Equal volumes of cDNA were combined and evaporated to near dryness with an SPD121P Speed Vac (Thermon Savant). For hybridisation to the microarray slides, cDNA was resuspended in an appropriate volume of salt-based hybridization buffer (provided by Ocimum Biosolutions). Prior to addition to the slides, cDNA samples were heated to 95 °C for 3 min, and then placed on ice for no more than 3 min. The slides were placed in MWG Biotech hybridization chambers and incubated for 16 to 24 h in a shaking water bath at 110 rpm and 42 °C. Following incubation , the slides were washed sequentially for 5 min in 2x SSC-1 % sodium dodecyl sulphate, 1x SSC, 0.5x SSC and 0.1x SSC at 37 °C with gentle agitation (1x SSC is 0.15 M NaCl plus 0.015 M sodium citrate). The slides were dried by centrifugation at 254 xg for 5 min and subsequently scanned with an Affymetrix 428 scanner. The average signal intensity and local background correction were obtained by using commercially available software from Biodiscovery, Inc. (Imagine version 4.0, and Genesight, version 3.5). The mean values from each channel were log2 transformed and normalized by using the subtract-by-mean method to remove intensity-dependent effects in the log2 (ratio) values. The Cy3/Cy5 fluorescence ratios were calculated from the normalized values. Biological experiments (i.e. chemostat growth with and without 0.25 mM GSNO addition) were carried out three times and a dye swap was performed for two of the three experiments which provided two technical repeats, one each for two of the three biological repeats. Data from the independent experiments were combined. Genes that were differentially expressed ⥠twofold and displayed and P value of ⤠0.05 (as determined by a t test) were defined as being statistically significantly differentially transcribed.

Project description:Campylobacter jejuni, the most frequent cause of food-borne bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide, is a microaerophile that has to survive high environmental oxygen tensions, adapt to oxygen limitation in the intestine and resist host oxidative attack. Here, oxygen-dependent changes in C. jejuni physiology were studied at constant growth rate using carbon (serine)-limited continuous chemostat cultures. We show that a perceived aerobiosis scale can be calibrated by the acetate excretion flux, which becomes zero when metabolism is fully aerobic (100% aerobiosis). Transcriptome changes in a downshift experiment from 150% to 40% aerobiosis revealed many novel oxygen-regulated genes and highlighted re-modelling of the electron transport chains. A label-free proteomic analysis showed that at 40% aerobiosis, many proteins involved in host colonisation (e.g., PorA, CadF, FlpA, CjkT) became more abundant. PorA abundance increased steeply below 100% aerobiosis. In contrast, several citric-acid cycle enzymes, the peptide transporter CstA, PEB1 aspartate/glutamate transporter, LutABC lactate dehydrogenase and PutA proline dehydrogenase became more abundant with increasing aerobiosis. We also observed a co-ordinated response of oxidative stress protection enzymes and Fe-S cluster biogenesis proteins above 100% aerobiosis. Our approaches reveal key virulence factors that respond to restricted oxygen availability and specific transporters and catabolic pathways activated with increasing aerobiosis.

Project description:A single-domain globin (cgb) mutant strain of Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 was grown in 2 homemade, parallel chemostats. Cells were grown in 125 ml volumes of Mueller-Hinton Broth where the growth rate was controlled by the dilution rate (0.1 h-1). A gas mix of 80% nitrogen, 10% carbon dioxide and 10% oxygen was pumped into the head-space of the vessels at a rate of 0.25 l/min to obtain a microaerobic environment and the culture was maintained at 42 ºC via a water jacket. Cells were grown as above until steady-state had been reached. At steady-state one of the cultures was exposed to 0.25 mM GSNO (final concentration) for a period of 10 min. Samples of both the control and stressed cultures were harvested into phenol/ethanol to stabilize the RNA and total RNA was purified using Qiagen’s RNeasy Mini kit (as recommended by the suppliers) prior to use in microarray analysis. Equal quantities of RNA from control and GSNO-supplemented cultures were labelled using nucleotide analogues of dCTP containing either Cy3 or Cy5 fluorescent dyes. The average signal intensity and local background correction were obtained using a commercially available software package from Biodiscovery, Inc (Imagene, version 4.0 and GeneSight, version 4). The mean values from each channel were log2 transformed and normalised using the Lowess method to remove intensity-dependent effects in the log2(ratios) values. The Cy3/Cy5 fluorescent ratios were calculated from the normalized values. Keywords: Stress-response to GSNO
