Proteome response of biofilm forming Pseudomonas fluorescens ITEM 17298 to pepsin-digested bovine lactoferrin under two incubation temperatures

ABSTRACT: 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.

Pseudomonas fluorescens is implicated in food spoilage especially under cold storage. Due to its ability to form biofilm P. fluorescens resists to common disinfection strategies increasing its persistance especially across fresh food chain. Biofilm formation is promoted by several environmental stimuli, but gene expression and protein changes involved in this lifestyle are poorly investigated in this species. In this work a comparative proteomic analysis was performed to investigate metabolic pa ...[more]

Project description:The foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes has the ability to develop biofilm in food-processing environment, which becomes a major concern for the food safety. PrfA, a key transcriptional activator that regulates most of the known listerial virulence gene expression, has been shown to promote L. monocytogenes biofilm formation. In this study, the whole genome microarray was used to identify differentially expressed genes associated with the putative interaction between biofilm formation and PrfA in L. monocytogenes. Comparative transcriptome analyses indicated over 21.9% of the L. monocytogenes EGDe genes (627 out of 2857 predicted) were altered in their expression in biofilm cells relative to planktonic cell populations. These genes were classed into different functional categories which cover most of the biochemical functions encountered in bacterial cells, especially involved in ion transport, DNA repair, and cell wall biosynthesis based on significant enrichment of GO terms. Among them, 185 genes were identified to be associated with PrfA and biofilm formation by comparison of the whole gene expression profiles of L. monocytogenes EGDe and its M-NM-^TprfA mutant. The expression tendency of these PrfA-associated and biofilm-specific genes were mainly opposite in M-NM-^TprfA biofilm, and most of them are involved in phage-related function, membrane bioenergetics, and cell wall. Our results indicated that L. monocytogenes biofilm formation is probably controlled by the complex regulation network involved variable genes required for the different biological pathways. This regulatory network is modified in the prfA deletion mutant in order to maintain its stable biofilm lifestyle. Gene expression of planktonic cells and biofilm cells in Listeria monocytogenes EGDe and prfA isogenic deletion strain EGDeM-NM-^TprfA with cultivated in MEM and BHI for 48 hours, were mesasued using Agilent Listeria monocytogenes customized whole-genome microarray 8x15 array. Three replicates.
