SOS Genes Are Rapidly Induced While Mutagenesis Is Temporally Regulated by Changes in Protein Activation and Nucleotide Pools After a Sub-lethal Dose of Ciprofloxacin in Escherichia coli

ABSTRACT: The DNA damage inducible SOS response in bacteria serves to increase survival of the species. The SOS response first initiates error-free repair which is followed by error-prone repair. Here, we have employed a multi-omics approach to elucidate the temporal coordination of the SOS response using transcriptomics, signalomics, and metabolomics. Escherichia coli was grown in batch cultivation in bioreactors to ensure highly controlled conditions, and a low dose of ciprofloxacin was used to activate the SOS response while avoiding extensive cell death. Our results show that expression of genes involved in error-free and error-prone repair were both induced shortly after DNA damage, thus, challenging the established perception that the expression of error-prone repair genes is delayed. By combining transcriptomics with signalomics, we found that temporal segregation of error-free and error-prone repair is primarily regulated after transcription. Furthermore, the heterology index was correlated to the maximum increase in gene expression and not to the time of induction of SOS genes. Finally, quantification of metabolites revealed increasing pyrimidine pools as a late feature of the SOS response. Our results elucidate how the SOS response is coordinated, showing a rapid transcriptional response and temporal regulation of mutagenesis on the protein and metabolite levels.

Project description:Treatment failures of antibiotic therapy are of major concern and can be caused by a misalignment of the antibiotic susceptibility determined in vitro with the behaviour of the pathogen in the patient. The aim of this study was to investigate the transcriptomic response of the uropathogenic strain E. coli CFT073 to antibiotic treatment in blood stream infection (BSI) models in order to understand and avoid antibiotic therapy failures in urosepsis treatments. Blood stream infection models were established by growing E. coli CFT073 in pooled human serum with and without ciprofloxacin and compared to Iso-sensitest medium. The antibiotic challenge was introduced at mid-logarithmic phase of growth of the organism to depict a clinical scenario . Global gene expression profiling of these conditions was examined using commercial DNA microarrays. The organismâs metabolic genes appeared to be regulated differently in each medium, this indicated that the bacterial growth regulation were different between the models. Bacterial growth in human serum mainly involved regulations of amino acid synthesis/utilisation such as glycine, arginine, thiamine, regulations of fimbrial proteins and bacteriophage genes. When comparing the responses to antibiotic challenge, bacteria grown in the respective medium displayed specific responses to the antibiotic challenge which were not seen in the other media. The common functions of genes that responded to the ciprofloxacin challenge were SOS response, DNA repair, DNA replication, fimbrial genes and bacteriophage initiation. A subset of the bacteriophage genes showed similar responses between the three models. From genes that were differentially regulated, responses observed in the serum model appeared to have the highest fold changes. In this study we established new models to investigate blood stream infections. They have been used to identify previously unknown differences in the molecular response to antibiotic treatment by the uropathogenic E. coli CFT073 depending on the media. These unique responses will help to unravel the complexity of bloodstream infection and can help to improve the antibiotic therapy that is used. A 20 array study using total RNA recovered from bacteria from bacteria that were either grown in human serum or Iso-Sensitest (IST) broth, with and without ciprofloxacin challenge. Arrays were performed in 5 biological replicates from each condition.Upon QC checks, certain biological repeats were excluded due to poor hybridisation results.
