Asp23-controlled cell wall imbalance promotes membrane vesicles biogenesis in Staphylococcus aureus

ABSTRACT: Membrane vesicles (MVs) are produced by species across all domains of life and have diverse physiological functions and promising applications. While the mechanisms for vesiculation in Gram-negative bacteria are well-established, the genetic determinant and regulation of MVs biogenesis in Gram-positive bacteria remain still largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that a Q225P substitution in the alternative sigma factor SigB greatly triggers MVs production in Staphylococcus aureus strain Newman by directly repressing expression of alkaline shock protein 23, wherein the Q225P mutation hinders the specific binding of SigB to the asp23 promoter. Isogenic deletion of asp23 consistently promotes MVs formation in Newman, highlighting the critical role of both sigB and asp23 in modulating S. aureus vesiculation. While bacterial growth and cytoplasmic membrane fluidity do not be impaired, mutation of asp23 elicits a weakened cell wall and enhanced autolysis that potentially involved in LrgAB-controlled hydrolases and PSMα-mediated activities, which ultimately leads to hypervesiculation in Newman. Furthermore, TEM and proteomic analysis suggest nearly identical morphology and composition, but virulence-associated factors are significantly enriched in MVs upon asp23 deletion. Overall, this study reveals novel genetic determinants and cues underlying S. aureus vesiculation, advancing the understanding of the physiology of MVs biogenesis in Gram-positive bacteria.

Lactobacillus Membrane Vesicles

Project description:Bacterial membrane vesicles have been implicated in a broad range of functions in microbial communities from pathogenesis to gene transfer. Though first thought to be a phenomenon associated with Gram-negative bacteria, vesicle production in Staphylococcus aureus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and other Gram-positives has recently been described. Here we characterize MVs from three different Lactobacillus species (L. acidophilus, L. casei, and L. reuteri), determining that the size and protein composition of Lactobacillus-derived MVs have both similarities and differences with those produced by Gram-negative bacteria. Using proteomics, we identified more than 80 protein components from Lactobacillus-derived MVs, including some that were enriched in the vesicles themselves. For each species, vesicular proteins were categorized based on biological pathway and examined for subcellular localization signals in an effort to identify possible sorting mechanisms for MV proteins. Additionally, differences between MVs of other Lactobacillus species and Gram positive bacteria were highlighted. Information in this study will assist in elucidation of the formation and functions of MVs, as well as the development of therapeutic tools for vaccines, diagnosis, and therapeutic delivery.

Proteome profile of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Membrane-Derived Vesicles grown in presence of sub-MIC dosage of Vancomycin

Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has evolved numerous antimicrobial resistance mechanisms and is identified as a serious public health threat by the World Health Organization and U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The glycopeptide vancomycin (VAN) remains a cornerstone of therapy for severe MRSA infections despite increasing reports of therapeutic failure in hospitalized patients with bacteremia or pneumonia. Here we examined the effectiveness of MVs-derived methicillin-resistant SA (MRSA) to counteract vancomycin (VAN). We found that supplementation of a typical MIC assay using bacteriologic and tissue-mimicking media with purified MVs attenuated MRSA susceptibility to VAN but no other examined cell-wall targeting antibiotics. In addition, the purified MVs protected MRSA challenged with sub-therapeutic dosage of VAN against the host’s innate immune system. Additionally, the proteome of MV peptides from VAN exposed MRSA was characterized to determine if protein expression was altered.

Proteomic analysis of Streptomyces coelicolor vesicles

Project description:Streptomyces coelicolor is a model organism for the study of Streptomyces, a genus of Gram-positive bacteria that undergoes a complex life cycle and produces an enormous repertoire of bioactive metabolites and extracellular enzymes. This study investigated the production and characterization of membrane vesicles (MVs) in liquid cultures of S. coelicolor M145 from a structural and biochemical point of view using microscopic, physical and -omics analyzes. Two main populations of MVs, F3 and F4 MVs, with different size and cargo were isolated and purified. S. coelicolor MV cargo is complex and contains many “messages” such as proteins and metabolites. A total of 166 proteins involved in cell metabolism and differentiation, molecular processing and transport was identified in MVs. In particular, a subset of these proteins was protected from the degradation after proteinase K treatment, indicating their localization inside the vesicles. Vesicle proteome includes many stress response proteins which also play an important role in S. coelicolor morpho- physiological differentiation. Moreover, MVs packaged with an array of metabolites such as antibiotics, vitamins, amino acids and components of carbon metabolism. The analysis of S. coelicolor MV cargo will provide informations to elucidate their biogenesis and functions

Surface-shaving of Staphylococcus aureus strains using Lipid-based Protein Immobilization (LPI) and quantitative proteomic analysis reveal differences in protein expression levels of the surfaceome

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogen which can cause a wide range of infections. To find new targets for diagnostics and treatment as well as understanding host-pathogen interactions, many studies have focused on the bacterial surface proteins. In the study presented here, bacterial cell surface-shaving, using Lipid-based Protein Immobilization (LPI), followed by tandem mass tag (TMT) protocols for performing relative quantitative mass spectrometry proteomics, was performed to examine the surface proteome (surfaceome) of selected strains of S. aureus. The study included analyses of surface protein-deficient mutants compared to the wildtype S. aureus strain Newman, as well strain isolates of different clinical associations. Quantitative proteomics were applied in the analysis of the surface proteome of Staphylococcus aureus. In study 1, the differential abundance of proteins in the mutant strains ΔClfA, ΔSrtAΔSrtB and ΔSpa was compared to those in the Newman parental strain. All together 7880 peptides were identified in Study 1 corresponding to 1290 proteins, and the results clearly showed that the mutant strains were deficient in the knocked-out genes. The Clinical strains study (Study 2) included the Newman strain, the reference strains LS-1 and SH1000 and three clinical isolates, two from invasive infections and one from mild skin infection. A total of 4949 peptides were identified in Study 2 corresponding to 919 proteins. For each strain, approximately 20 proteins showed higher or lower abundance (fold changes) when compared to the Newman strain. The results indicate that surface shaving of intact bacteria by LPI in combination with protocols for performing quantitative proteomics makes it possible to distinguish differences in protein abundance of the surfaceome, including virulence factors, between S. aureus strains.

Membrane vesicles of Pectobacterium as an underappreciated protein secretion system

Project description:Pectobacterium are Gram-negative rods of the family Pectobacteriaceae. They are the causative agent of soft rot diseases of crops and ornamental plants. However, their virulence mechanisms are not yet fully elucidated. Membrane vesicles (MVs) are universally released by bacteria and are be-lieved to play an important role in pathogenicity, and survival of bacteria in the environment. Our study investigates the role of MVs in the virulence of Pectobacterium. The results indicate that the morphology and yields of MVs depend on medium composition. In polygalacturonic acid (PGA) supplemented media, Pectobacterium produce MVs of a larger size (100-300 nm) apart of vesicles below 100 nm. Proteomic analyses revealed the presence of pectate degrading enzymes in MVs. The pectate plate test and enzymatic assay proved that those enzymes are active and able to de-grade pectates. What is more, pathogenicity test indicated that MVs derived from Pectobacterium were able to induce maceration of Zantedeschia sp. leaves. We also show that MVs of β-lactamase producing strains were able to suppress ampicillin activity and permit the growth of susceptible bacteria. Those findings indicate that MVs of Pectobacterium play an important role in host-pathogen interactions and niche competition with other bacteria. Our research also sheds some light on the mechanism of MVs production. We demonstrate that Pectobacterium strains, which overexpress the green fluorescence protein (GFP), produce more MVs than wild type strains. Moreover, proteomic analysis revealed that GFP was present in MVs. Therefore, we demonstrate that protein sequestration into MVs is not limited strictly to periplasmic proteins and is a common occurrence. Our research highlights the importance of MVs production as a mechanism of cargo delivery in Pectobacterium and an alternative secretion system.

Bacteriocins in Lactobacillus acidophlius membrane vesicles

Project description:Recent reports have shown that Gram-positive bacteria actively secrete spherical nanometer-sized proteolipid membrane vesicles (MVs) into their surroundings. Though MVs have been implicated in a broad range of biological functions, few studies have been conducted to examine their potential as delivery vehicles of antimicrobials. Here, we investigate the natural ability of Lactobacillus acidophilus MVs to carry and deliver bacteriocin peptides to the opportunistic pathogen, Lactobacillus delbrueckii. We demonstrate that upon treatment with lactacin B-inducing peptide the proteome of the secreted MVs is enriched in putative bacteriocins encoded by the lab operon. Further, we show that purified MVs inhibit growth and form membrane pores in L. delbrueckii, which is confirmed using a number of microscopy techniques and spectrophotometry. These results show that L. acidophilus MVs serve as conduits for antimicrobials to competing cells in the environment, suggesting a potential role for MVs in complex communities such as the gut microbiome. With the potential for controlling their payload through microbial engineering, MVs produced by L. acidophilus may be an interesting platform for effecting change in complex microbial communities or aiding in the development of new biomedical therapeutics.

GlmS plays a key role in the virulence and biofilm formation ability of Staphylococcus aureus promoted by advanced glycation end products

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is well known for its biofilm formation ability and is responsible for serious, chronic refractory infections worldwide. We previously demonstrated that advanced glycation end products (AGEs), a hallmark of chronic hyperglycemia in diabetic tissues, enhanced biofilm formation by promoting eDNA release via sigB upregulation in S. aureus, contributing to the high morbidity and mortality of diabetic foot ulcer infection. However, the exact regulatory network has not been completely described. Here, we used a pull-down assay and LC‒MS/MS to identify the GlmS protein as a candidate regulator of sigB in S. aureus stimulated by AGEs. Dual-luciferase assays and electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) revealed that GlmS directly upregulated the transcriptional activity of sigB. We constructed Newman ∆glmS for further validation. Quantitative RT‒PCR analysis revealed that AGEs promoted both glmS and sigB expression in the Newman strain but had no effect on Newman ∆glmS. Newman ∆glmS showed a significant attenuation in biofilm formation ability and virulence, accompanied by a decrease in sigB expression, even under AGE stimulation. All of the changes, including pigment deficiency, decreased hemolysis ability, downregulation of hla and hld expression, and less and sparser biofilms, indicated that sigB and biofilm formation ability no longer responded to AGEs in Newman ∆glmS. Our data extend the understanding of GlmS in the global regulatory network of S. aureus and demonstrate a new mechanism by which AGEs can upregulate GlmS, which subsequently directly regulates sigB and plays a significant role in mediating biofilm formation and virulence factor expression.

proteomic analysis of membrane vesicles from clinical Cutibacterium acnes isolates

Project description:Recently the membrane vesicles (MVs) production has been observed in Gram-positive bacterium, Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes). In order to explore the mechanism of antibiotic resistance and the virulent components within the C. acnes-derived MVs, we isolated MVs from the clinical C. acnes, which were sensitive or resistant to antibiotics erythromycin and clindamycin. With the LC-MS/MS method, we detected several lipases, virulent factors and cell division protein differentially expressed between the sensitive and the resistant C. acnes-derived MVs.
