The impacts of the Spx regulator and H2O2 stress on the transcriptome of Streptococcus mutans

ABSTRACT: As a resident of the oral cavity, Streptococcus mutans must withstand a variety of stresses, including oxidative stress. Previously, we reported the identification of two Spx homologues (SpxA1 and SpxA2) in Streptococcus mutans that appear critical in the ability of the microbe to tolerate oxidative stresses; SpxA1 was shown to play a primary role in activation of detoxification strategies whereas SpxA2 served as a secondary activator. Here, we used RNA deep sequencing (RNA-Seq) to examine the transcriptional changes associated with H2O2 stress in the parent S. mutans strain UA159 and to compare the peroxide-stress transcriptome of UA159 with its Δspx derivatives. The transcriptome data confirmed the relationship between SpxA1 and genes typically associated with oxidative stress responses, but also identified new genes and metabolic pathways that are activated during peroxide stress, also in an SpxA1-dependent manner.

Streptococcus mutans UA159 vs. spx mutant strains

| PRJNA122557 | ENA

A new Rrf2 repressor family member, SaiR, controls transcription of spxA2 encoding a regulator of the oxidative stress response in Bacillus anthracis.

Project description:Spx, a member of the ArsC (arsenate reductase) protein family, is highly conserved in Gram-positive bacteria, where it interacts with RNA polymerase to activate transcription in response to toxic oxidants.Â In Bacillus anthracis, resistance to oxidative stress requires the activity of two paralogous forms of Spx, SpxA1 and SpxA2.Â Â Suppressor mutations were identified in spxA1 mutant cells that conferred resistance to hydrogen peroxide. Â The mutations, which reside in saiR within the operon that also contains the spxA2 gene, caused derepression of spxA2 transcription. The product of saiR is a member of the Rrf2 family of transcriptional repressors. Â Derepression of spxA2 in a saiR mutant required SpxA2, indicating an autoregulatory mechanism of spxA2 transcriptional activation. Â Reconstruction of SaiR-dependent control of spxA2 was accomplished in Bacillus subtilis, where deletion analysis uncovered two cis-elements within the spxA2 regulatory region that are required for repression.Â Both sites bear sequences of dyad symmetry, mutations in which abolished SaiR binding and SaiR-dependent repression of transcription from the spxA2 promoter in vitro.Â Previous studies have provided evidence that spxA2 is one of the most highly induced genes in a macrophage infected with B. anthracis.Â The work reported herein uncovered a key regulator, SaiR, which controls spxA2 transcriptional activation. Direct comparison of experimental samples to control samples in a two-color hybridization. Two experimental samples were compared against two control samples in triplicate for each.

spxA1-null mutant of Streptococcus sanguinis SK36

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of the spxA1-null mutant of Streptococcus sanguinis SK36 compared with wild type. The spxA1 gene was inactivated in Streptococcus sanguinis SK36, and the mutant demonstrated opaque colony morphology, reduced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production, and reduced antagonistic activity against Streptococcus S. mutans UA159 both on plates and in liquid media. The mutant also showed decreased tolerance to high temperature, and acidic and oxidative stresses. Complementation of the ΔspxA1 mutant with spxA1 restored colony morphology, H2O2 production and stress tolerance to the ΔspxA1 mutant. The mutant also exhibited an ~5-fold reduction in competitiveness in an animal model of endocarditis, indicating the involvement of SpxA1 in endocarditis virulence. Microarray studies revealed that a number of SpxA1-upregulated genes are involved in oxidative stress. The expression of spxB and nox (which encode pyruvate oxidase and NADH oxidase, respectively, and are involved in H2O2 production and nox involved virulence) significantly decreased in ΔspxA1 compared with the wild type. This may be at least partly responsible for the decreased H2O2 production and reduced virulence in the ΔspxA1 mutant because spxB and nox were involved in H2O2 production and nox involved virulence.

Streptococcus mutans UA159 vs. spx mutant strains

Project description:Transcriptional profiling to investigate the regulatory roles of SpxA and SpxB of S. mutans. RNA was extracted from four replicate samples of each strain of interest (spxA mutant, spxB mutant, spxAB double-mutant, UA159 wild type) and labeled with Cy3. For each replicate, labeled RNA was hybridized to slides along with Cy5-labeled reference RNA, extracted from S. mutans UA159 cells grown to mid-log.

Interactions with Commensal or Non-commensal Streptococci Alter Streptococcus mutans Transcriptome and Behaviors

Project description:RNA-Seq was used to compare the transcriptome of Streptococcus mutans UA159 during growth alone in monoculture, in coculture with Streptococcus gordonii DL1, Streptococcus sanguinis SK36 or Streptococcus oralis 34, and in a quadculture containing all four species. Individual cultures of commensal species Streptococcus gordonii DL1, Streptococcus sanguinis SK36 and Streptococcus oralis 34 were sequenced as well. This revealed a common transcriptome pattern in S. mutans when grown in mixed-species culture, indepenedent of the species identity that S. mutans was cultured with. Additionally, transcriptome changes in the commensal species could also be determined when undergoing competition from S. mutans. RNA-Seq was used to compare the transcriptome of Streptococcus mutans UA159 during growth alone in monoculture or in coculture with Streptococcus sobrinus NIDR 6715, Lactobacillus casei ATCC 4646 or Corynebacterium matruchotii ATCC 14266. These data were compared to previous coculture and quadculture RNA-Seq data with commensal streptococci (GSE209925). These data confirmed a common transcriptome pattern in S. mutans when grown in mixed-species culture with commensal streptococci that is not present with non-commensal streptococci, indepenedent of the species identity that S. mutans was cultured with.

Analysis of the Streptococcus mutans proteome during acid and oxidative stress reveals modules of co-expression and an expanded role for the TreR transcriptional regulator

Project description:Dental caries is the most common chronic infectious disease worldwide and disproportionally affects marginalized socioeconomic groups. Streptococcus mutans is a considered a primary etiologic agent of caries, with its pathogenicity dependent on coordinated physiologic stress responses that mitigate the damage caused by oxidative and acid stress, which are frequently encountered. In this study, the proteome of S. mutans was examined during growth in acidic and oxidative stresses, as well in nox and treR deletion mutants. 607 proteins were differentially expressed across the strains/growth conditions, and modules of co-expressed proteins were identified, which enabled mapping the acid and oxidative stress responses across S. mutans metabolism. The presence of TreR was linked to mutacin production via LytTR system signaling and to oxidative stress via mutanobactin production. The data provided by this study will guide future research elucidating S. mutans pathogenesis and developing improved preventative and treatment modalities for dental caries.
