Comparative Proteome Analysis of Shewanella putrefaciens WS13 Mature Biofilm under Cold Stress

ABSTRACT: Worldwide, Shewanella putrefaciens is the predominant seafood spoilage microorganism during cold storage. This bacterium can attach to biotic/abiotic surfaces to form biofilms which contribute to seafood quality degradation and shelf-life reduction. The mechanism of S. putrefaciens biofilm formation is not yet described. The variations of proteins measured by RM confirmed the importance of proteins during the formation of a mature biofilm. Comparative proteomic analysis showed that siderophore and iron chelate transport proteins were down-regulated during mature biofilm formation. The down-regulated aforementioned proteins are involved in promoting iron storage in response to a higher demand for metabolic energy, whereas, the upregulated proteins of the sulfur relay system, pyrimidine metabolism, and purine metabolism are related to bacterial adaptability. Synthesis of proteins related to cold stress was increased and proteins involved in aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis were up-regulated, whereas, proteins involved in aminopeptidase activity were down-regulated. Proteolysis to scavenge energy was reduced as proteins involved in pyrophosphatase activity were up-regulated. Also extracellular eDNA was found which may play an important role in maintaining the stability of mature S. putrefaciens biofilm structures under cold stress. This work provides a better understanding of the role of proteins in mature biofilms. In addition, the biofilm formation mechanism of a psychrotrophic spoilage bacterial species at low temperature is explored, which may contribute to generating biofilm controlling strategies during seafood preservation and processing.

Worldwide, Shewanella putrefaciens is the predominant seafood spoilage microorganism during cold storage. This bacterium can attach to biotic/abiotic surfaces to form biofilms which contribute to seafood quality degradation and shelf-life reduction. The mechanism of S. putrefaciens biofilm formation is not yet described. Crystal violet staining in combination with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to study the sequence of events leading to the establishment of a ma ...[more]

Project description:Pseudomonas fluorescens is implicated in food spoilage especially under cold storage, causing the increase of food waste and the reduction of environmental (and nutritional) sustainability. In food industry, Pseudomonas biofilm on pipe surfaces and facilities creates a persistent source of contamination and increases resistance to common disinfection strategies. Even though gene expression and protein pattern changes under environmental stimuli have been suggested, cellular mechanisms involved in biofilm production are poorly investigated for this species. In the present work, the cheese blue pigmenting P. fluorescens ITEM 17298 produced increased biofilm biomass and motility at 15 °C in comparison to 30 °C. Proteomic analysis revealed major differences of proteins involved in biofilm formation. In particular, at 15 °C we found increased amount of the c-di-GMP regulator PleD involved in motility as well as AlgB and the carbon storage regulator directly involved biofilm formation. Carbon metabolism, protein and fatty acid synthesis were also stimulated under cold incubation. Moreover, for the first time, enzymes correlated to indigoidine synthesis (blue pigment) were identified in the same condition. The differences in expression of regulatory proteins could therefore be the major determinant of the biofilm formation ability of P. fluorescens under refrigerated condition. Genomic and proteomic results also revealed virulence factors mostly detected at 30 °C. In order to counteract P. fluorescens persistence, this study also proposed a control strategy for biofilm development. Thus, a sub-lethal concentration of bovine lactoferrin hydrolysate (HLF) was assayed at both temperatures. Treatment caused a significant reduction in biofilm biomass, also confirmed by changes in proteome pattern. At each condition proteins involved regulatory functions and transcription factors were downregulated after HLF-treatment. Among these, at 15 °C we found that PleD was absent in treated samples, whilst negative regulators of alginate biosynthesis were detected; likewise, indigoidine related proteins were repressed. The cyclic-di-GMP-binding biofilm dispersal mediator was instead detected in all treated samples.

Project description:Biofilm formation is considered the most important factor involved in pathogenicity of Staphylococcus epidermidis.We investigated the role of two-component signal transduction system (TCS) srrAB, which was up-regulated under micro-aerobic condition, in the growth and biofilm formation of S. epidermidis.AsrrA-deficient mutant (M-bM-^HM-^FsrrA) derived from S. epidermidis1457 (SE1457), exhibited dramatic reduction in growth and biofilm formation underboth aerobic and micro-aerobic conditions, and more sensitive to several different types of antimicrobial agents, H2O2 and SDS. In New Zealand Rabbit model of S. epidermidis biofilm infection, M-bM-^HM-^FsrrA hardly formed biofilm compared to that of SE1457. Phenotypic alteration was restored to the wide-type levelwhen srrAB were complemented into M-bM-^HM-^FsrrA. Further study found that the initial adherence capacity and production of polysaccharide intercellular adhesion (PIA) in M-bM-^HM-^FsrrA were decreased, while extracellular DNA (eDNA) was increased. Transcriptional Analysisby qRT-PCR demonstrated that expression level of icaRin M-bM-^HM-^FsrrA was up-regulated compared to that of SE1457 under aerobic condition, while down-regulated under micro-aerobic condition;icaA and altE were down-regulated under both conditions. Expression of genes involved in respiratory metabolism, such as qoxB(quinol oxidase polypeptide II), ctaA(heme A synthase), and pfl(pyruvate formatelyase), etc. were down-regulated in M-bM-^HM-^FsrrAunder both conditions. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) revealed that phosphorylated SrrA bound to the promoter regions of icaR, icaA, atlE, qoxB,ctaA, andpflB just like binding its own promoter region srr. Taken together, our results demonstrate that srrAB may provide a mechanistic link between respiratory metabolism, environmental signals, and regulation of biofilm formation in S. epidermidis. Microarrays covering different S. epidermidis genomes were used to assess the impact of the two component system srrAB on growth and biofilm formation, by comparing WT with srrA mutant transcriptomes
