Proteomic profiling of clinical isolates and reference strain of H-34 Mycoplasma hominis to study phenotypic adaptation

ABSTRACT: Mycoplasma hominis (M. hominis) belongs to the class Mollicutes, characterized by a very small genome size, metabolic pathway reduction, including transcription factors, and the absence of a cell wall. Despite this, they adapt well not only to specific niches within the host organism but can also spread throughout the body, colonizing various organs and tissues. The mechanisms of adaptation in M. hominis, as well as the pathways regulating them, are poorly understood. It is known that when adapting to adverse conditions, mycoplasmas can undergo phenotypic switches that may persist for several generations. To investigate the adaptive properties of M. hominis associated with survival in the host organism, we conducted a comparative proteogenomic analysis of 8 clinical isolates of M. hominis obtained from patients with urogenital infections, along with the laboratory strain H-34.

Project description:Crohn’s disease (CD) is a severe chronic immune-mediated granulomatous inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Its pathogenesis mechanisms remain obscure. One of the factors of CD pathogenesis is reduced diversity of gut microbiota which is accompanied by the characteristic increase of representation of Escherichia coli strains, several of which are able to penetrate the mucin layer, adhere to the epithelial cells, cross the epithelial barrier, and colonize macrophages. During the internalization, these E. coli strains can modulate macrophages’ defensive functions in a way that allows them to survive in a presence of such negative factors as low pH, oxidative stress, proteolytic enzymes and antimicrobial solutions. These strains were collectively assigned to the adhesive–invasive group of E. coli (AIEC). Earlier we sequenced 28 E. coli isolates from 10 patients with CD [Rakitina DV et al. Genome analysis of E. coli isolated from Crohn disease patients. BMC Genomics. 2017, 18(1):544. doi: 10.1186/s12864-017-3917-x] It has been demonstrated that the majority of enteropathogens feature specific metabolic pathways allowing them to use alternative carbon sources which leads to survivability and enhaced competitiveness in the host organism. Previously, we demonstrated that virulent properties of CD isolates are dependent on the carbon source: prolonged growth on propionate containing medium stimulates virulent properties while prolonged growth on glucose reduces these properties to levels indistinguishable from laboratory strain K-12 MG1655 [Pobeguts OV et al. Propionate Induces Virulent Properties of Crohn’s Disease-Associated Escherichia coli. Frontiers in Microbiology. 2020, 11:1460. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.01460]. Thus, cultivation of E. coli on different growth mediums: M9 supplied with propionate and glucose made it possible to distinguish two states of each CD isolate: active (aAIEC) and inactive (iAIEC). In order to identify the major changes that occur upon change of carbon source, we carried out LC–MS-based proteomic analysis of aAIEC and iAIEC states of three CD isolates of E. coli ZvL2 (RCE07), BruB2 (RCE03) and К5 (RCE06) grown on glucose and propionate.

Project description:Large-scale gene expression affected by salt stress was analyzed with tomato seedlings (Lycoperson esculentum Mill cv. Money Maker) by a cDNA microarray (Tom1). The significantly differentially expressed genes (5% Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate) consisted of 1757 sequences in the analyzed tissues (cotyledons + shoot tip). Genes with over 2 fold difference were selected from the list and further categorized into different function and cellular processes. Tomato homologous genes for the chaperone proteins, antioxidant enzymes (catalase and peroxidase), and ion transporters (Na+-driven multidrug efflux pump, vacuolar ATPase, and others) were induced. The ACC oxidase and ethylene-responsive gene tomato homologs had higher transcript level after salt treatment. Multiple members with different expression patterns were identified for the bZIP, WRKY, and MADS-box transcription regulator. Different genes in the signal transduction pathway, such as the protein kinases (Shaggy kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinase, ethylene receptor neverripe, and others), protein phosphatases, calmodulin, G-protein, and the N- myristoyltransferase, were regulated by salt stress. Most of the protease and the inhibitor homologs were suppressed by salt stress. In addition, different isoforms of cytochrome P450, genes for polyamine biosynthesis (putrescine and proline) and detoxification compounds (glutathione and thioredoxin), several key enzyme genes in the metabolic pathways of carbohydrates, amino acids, and fatty acids, were also affected by salt treatment. This study has provided a set of candidate genes, especially those in the regulatory machinery that can be further investigated to define salt stress in tomato and other plant species. Keywords: treatment response Effect of 75mM NaCl on gene’s expression in tomato seedlings, Lycoperscon esculentum Mill. cv. Money Maker after 17 d of treatment. Each sample represents a pool of same tissue 20 seedlings grown in two flasks. Experiment was done in triplicate.
