SWATH-LC/MS/MS of the proteomic response in Campylobacter jejuni 81-176 to sublethal concentrations of seven different bile acids
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To characterize the adaptation processes of C. jejuni to sublethal concentrations of bile acids, that are a crucial component of the intestinal antimicrobial defense, including cholic- , chenodeoxycholic-, taurocholic-, glycocholic-, deoxycholic-, lithocholic-, and ursodeoxycholic acid, we used proteome profiling by label-free mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS). The most toxic bile acids, deoxycholic- and chenodeoxycholic acid induced the most significant changes in protein expression. In detail we found a significant down-regulation of in principle all basic biosynthetic pathways and a general decrease of the transcription machinery. Concurrently, an induction of factors involved in detoxification of reactive oxygen species, protein folding, and bile acid exporting efflux pumps was detected. The metabolism was optimized in such a way that the more energy-efficient aerobic respiration pathway was increased, while the energy-inefficient anaerobic branches of the electron transport chain were down-regulated. Uptake of amino acids in order to catabolize them was also increased. These results show that C. jejuni has a well-built, differentiated system of adaptation to bile acids stress. The findings of this study will enhance the understanding of the biology on the interaction of C. jejuni with the human intestine, and may provide clues to future medical treatment and prevention of C. jejuni infections.
