Project description:Bacteria are orders of magnitude smaller than mammalian cells, and while single cell proteomics (SCP) detects and quantifies today several thousands of proteins per mammalian cell, it is not at all clear whether conventional SCP methods will be suitable for bacteria. Here we report on the first successful attempt to detect proteins from individual Escherichia coli bacteria, with validation of our findings by comparison with bulk proteomics data.

Project description:Signal intensities of BC-GP array for 105 speimens The Verigene Gram-Positive Blood Culture (BC-GP) nucleic acid assay is an automated microarray-based test, which can detect 12 Gram-positive bacterial genes and 3 resistance determinants using blood culture broths. We investigated signal intensities of microarray spots, and reclassified undetermined results where the automated system failed and various errors were called in blood culture specimens and spiked samples.

Signal intensity analysis of BC-GP assay. SAMPLE_077 [Blood culture, Escherichia coli, Gram-negative, BacTALERT, Supernatant, Peripheral blood] had no signal data in the array raw data. Thus, SAMPLE_077 is not represented in this Series.

Project description:DNA supercoiling is essential for all living cells because it controls all processes involving DNA. In bacteria, global DNA supercoiling results from the opposing activities of topoisomerase I, which relaxes DNA, and DNA gyrase, which compacts DNA. These enzymes are widely conserved, sharing >91% amino acid identity between the closely related species Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Why, then, do E. coli and Salmonella exhibit different DNA supercoiling when experiencing the same conditions? We now report that this surprising difference reflects disparate activation of their DNA gyrases by the polyamine spermidine and its precursor putrescine. In vitro, Salmonella DNA gyrase activity was sensitive to changes in putrescine concentration within the physiological range, whereas activity of the E. coli enzyme was not. In vivo, putrescine activated the Salmonella DNA gyrase and spermidine the E. coli enzyme. High extracellular Mg2+ decreased DNA supercoiling exclusively in Salmonella by reducing the putrescine concentration. Our results establish the basis for the differences in global DNA supercoiling between E. coli and Salmonella, define a signal transduction pathway regulating DNA supercoiling, and identify potential targets for antibacterial agents.

Project description:Six bacterial genomes, Geobacter metallireducens GS-15, Chromohalobacter salexigens, Vibrio breoganii 1C-10, Bacillus cereus ATCC 10987, Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni 81-176 and Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168, all of which had previously been sequenced using other platforms were re-sequenced using single-molecule, real-time (SMRT) sequencing specifically to analyze their methylomes. In every case a number of new N6-methyladenine (m6A) and N4-methylcytosine (m4C) methylation patterns were discovered and the DNA methyltransferases (MTases) responsible for those methylation patterns were assigned. In 15 cases it was possible to match MTase genes with MTase recognition sequences without further sub-cloning. Two Type I restriction systems required sub-cloning to differentiate their recognition sequences, while four MTases genes that were not expressed in the native organism were sub-cloned to test for viability and recognition sequences. No attempt was made to detect 5-methylcytosine (m5C) recognition motifs from the SMRT sequencing data because this modification produces weaker signals using current methods. However, all predicted m6A and m4C MTases were detected unambiguously. This study shows that the addition of SMRT sequencing to traditional sequencing approaches gives a wealth of useful functional information about a genome showing not only which MTase genes are active, but also revealing their recognition sequences.

Project description:Choline and methionine/choline deficient diets are widely used to generate severe rodent hepatic steatosis and steatohepatitis in an attempt to reflect stages of human non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The underlying mechanism of hepatic injury in these models, and how this reflects human disease remains incompletely understood. We used detailed transcriptional analysis to interrogate the molecular mechanisms of this intervention and its similarity to human disease. Adult C57Bl/6J mice were maintained on control, choline deficient (CDD) or methionine/choline deficient (MCDD) diets for 4 weeks. Isolated liver RNA was used for transcriptional profiling by micro array analysis.
