Project description:The goal of the study was to identify subsets of the genes, which are up-regulated and down-regulated by CovR regulator in UA159 strain. Two independently isolated RNA samples from each of the wild-type UA159 strain and its covR mutant strain grown until mid-exponential phase were analyzed. Each sample was hybridized with 5 blocks of NimbleGen arrays.

Project description: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.

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.

Project description:Transcriptional Profiling of Streptococcus mutans UA159 Grown in Continuous Culture using TV Media Supplemented With 10 mM vs 100 mM Glucose. The genetic and phenotypic responses of Streptococcus mutans, an organism known to be strongly associated with the development of dental caries, to changes in carbohydrate availability were investigated. S. mutans UA159 or a derivative of UA159 lacking ManL, which is the EIIAB component (EIIABMan) of a mannose/glucose permease of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) and a dominant effector of catabolite repression, were grown in continuous culture to steady-state in conditions of excess (100 mM) or limiting (10 mM) glucose. Microarrays using RNA from S. mutans UA159 revealed that 174 genes were differentially expressed in response to changes in carbohydrate availability (P < 0.001). Glucose-limited cells possessed higher PTS activity, could acidify the environment more rapidly and to a greater extent, and produced more ManL protein than cultures grown with excess glucose. Loss of ManL adversely affected carbohydrate transport and acid tolerance. Comp arison of the HPr protein in S. mutans UA159 and the manL deletion strain indicated that the differences in behaviors of the strains were not due to major differences in HPr pools or HPr phosphorylation status. Therefore, carbohydrate availability alone can dramatically influence the expression of physiologic and biochemical pathways that contribute directly to the virulence of S. mutans, and ManL has a profound influence on this behavior. Two-condition experiment, growth in 10 mM vs 100 mM glucose. Biological replicates: 3 per condition, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array

Project description:Streptococcus mutans is a bacterial cause of dental caries that is resistant to bacitracin. This study aimed to elucidate the mbrABCD-related bacitracin resistance mechanism of S. mutans. Transcriptome data demonstrated that 33 genes were induced more than 2 times in expression by bacitracin. Fourteen genes were selected from the upregulated genes and each defective mutants were constructed for measurement of their sensitivity to bacitracin. Among the mutants, only the mbrA- or mbrB-deficient mutants exhibited 100 to 121-fold greater sensitivity to bacitracin when compared with the wild-type strain. Moreover, knockout of the mbrC and mbrD genes abolished the bacitracin-induced mbrAB upregulation. These results suggest that bacitracin upregulates mbrAB transcription via mbrCD, which confers the bacitracin resistant phenotype on S. mutans. Single experiment data using Streptcoccus mutans wild-type strain UA159, a comparison of transcriptome between control sample and experimental (bacitracin-treated) one.

Project description:Streptococcus mutans, the primary etiological agent of human dental caries, has developed multiple mechanisms to colonize and form biofilms on the tooth surface. The brpA gene codes for a predicted surface-associated protein with apparent roles in biofilm formation, autolysis, and cell division. In this study, we used two models to further characterize the biofilm-forming characteristics of a BrpA-deficient mutant, strain TW14. Compared to those of the parent strain, UA159, TW14 formed long chains and sparse microcolonies on hydroxylapatite disks but failed to accumulate and form three-dimensional biofilms when grown on glucose as the carbohydrate source. The biofilm formation defect was also readily apparent by confocal laser scanning microscopy when flow cells were used to grow biofilms. When subjected to acid killing at pH 2.8 for 45 min, the survival rate of strain TW14 was more than 1 log lower than that of the wild-type strain. TW14 was at least 3 logs more susceptible to killing by 0.2% hydrogen peroxide than was UA159. The expression of more than 200 genes was found by microarray analysis to be altered in cells lacking BrpA (P < 0.01). These results suggest that the loss of BrpA can dramatically influence the transcriptome and significantly affects the regulation of acid and oxidative stress tolerance and biofilm formation in S. mutans, which are key virulence attributes of the organism.
