Project description:Pseudomonas syringae uses HrpRSL to regulate the expression of type III secretion system (T3SS) genes and bacterial virulence. However, the molecular mechanism and the regulons of HrpRSL have yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) on HrpRSL and Lon. The direct regulation of these genes by corresponding regulator has been confirmed by Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR). Binding motifs are found by using MEME suite and verified by footprint assays in vitro. Collectively, this work provides new cues to better understand the detailed regulatory networks of T3SS systems in P. syringae. ChIP-seq analysis of HrpRSL and Lon in Pseudomonas syringas

Project description:Lon protease plays vital roles in many biological processes in Pseudomonas syringae, including type III secretion systems (T3SS), transcription regulation, protein synthesis and energy metabolism. Lon also functions as a transcriptional regulator in other bacterial species (e.g., Escherichia coli and Brevibacillus thermoruber). Therefore, we hypothesise that Lon has dual functions in P. syringae. To reveal the molecular mechanisms of Lon as a transcriptional regulator and protease under different environmental conditions, we used a combination of transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq), chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to identify the genes or proteins regulated by Lon. As a transcriptional regulator, Lon bound to the promoter regions of PSPPH_4788, gacA, fur, gntR, clpS, lon and glyA and consequently regulated 1-dodecanol oxidation activity, motility, pyoverdine production, gluconokinase activity, N-end rule pathway, lon expression and serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) activity in King’s B medium (KB). In minimal medium (MM), Lon regulated SHMT activity and lon expression by binding to the promoter regions of glyA and lon, respectively. As a protease, Lon regulated the T3SS and metabolic pathways (e.g., amino acid metabolism). In MM, Lon regulated the polysaccharide metabolic process by controlling PSPPH_0514, AlgA, CysD and PSPPH_4991. Taken together, these data demonstrate that Lon acts as a transcriptional regulator or protease in different environments and tunes its virulence and metabolic functions accordingly.

Project description:Pseudomonas syringae uses two-component system RhpRS to regulate the expression of type III secretion system (T3SS) genes and bacterial virulence. However, the molecular mechanism and the regulons of RhpRS have yet to be fully elucidated. Here we show that RhpS functions as an autokinase, an RhpR kinase, and a P-RhpR phosphatase. RhpR can also be phosphorylated by small phosphodonor acetyl phosphate. A specific RhpR-binding site containing an inverted repeat (IR) motif GTATC-N6-GATAC, was mapped to its own promoter by DNase I footprint analysis. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) indicated that P-RhpR has higher binding activity than RhpR to the IR motif. To identify additional targets of RhpR in P. syringae, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq), which detected 167 enriched loci including the hrpR promoter, indicating the direct regulation of T3SS cascade genes by RhpR. Genome-wide microarray analysis showed that, besides the T3SS cascade genes, RhpR differentially regulates a large set of genes of various functions in response to different growth conditions. Together, these results suggested that RhpRS is a global regulator that allows P. syringae to sense and respond to environmental changes to coordinate the T3SS and many other biological processes.

Project description:The Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum-sensing (QS) systems contribute to bacterial homeostasis and pathogenicity. Although many regulators have been characterized to control the production of virulence factors and QS signaling molecules, its detailed regulatory mechanisms still remain elusive. Here, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) on 10 key QS regulators. The direct regulation of these genes by corresponding regulator has been confirmed by Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR). Binding motifs are found by using MEME suite and verified by footprint assays in vitro. Collectively, this work provides new cues to better understand the detailed regulatory networks of QS systems.

Project description:The Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum-sensing (QS) systems contribute to bacterial homeostasis and pathogenicity. Although the AraC family transcription factor VqsM has been characterized to control the production of virulence factors and QS signaling molecules, its detailed regulatory mechanisms still remain elusive. Here, we report that VqsM directly binds to the lasI promoter region, and thus regulates its expression. To identify additional targets of VqsM in P. aeruginosa PAO1, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) which detected 48 enriched loci harboring VqsM-binding peaks in P. aeruginosa genome. The direct regulation of these genes by VqsM has been confirmed by Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR). A VqsM-binding motif is found by using MEME suite and verified by footprint assays in vitro. In addition, VqsM directly binds to the promoter regions of antibiotic resistance regulator NfxB and the master type III system regulator ExsA. Notably, the vqsM mutant displayed more resistance to two types of antibiotics and promoted bacterial survival in a mouse model, compared to the wild type PAO1 strain. Collectively, this work provides new cues to better understand the detailed regulatory networks of QS systems, T3SS, and antibiotic resistance.
