Phosphoproteomics Reveals the Mechanism of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris in Response to Acid Stress

ABSTRACT: The spores of A. acidoterrestris cryopreserved at -80 ℃ were activated by inoculating in AAM medium and cultured at 45 ℃ to logarithmic phase [19]. The activated bacterial suspension was centrifuged and resuspended into pH 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 4.0 (Control) medium, which were correspondingly cultured in medium for 20 and 60 minutes, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy was used to monitor the bacterial activity and morphology different acid stress.Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris (A. acidoterrestris) causes pasteurized acidic juice spoilage, resulting in a significant decline of juice quality, and causing economic losses. Exploration of A. acidoterrestris in response to acid stress could help control contamination caused by the bacteria. In this study, the mechanism of A. acidoterrestris in response to acid stress was studied by quantitative phosphoproteomics technique. Result showed that the phosphorylation of 40 proteins in A. acidoterrestris were closely related to the regulation of acid stress. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the quorum sensing pathway which might involved in the perception of A. acidoterrestris was mainly enriched. we found that the up-regulation of Spo0A and YidC phosphorylation, which may resist acid stress by forming spores. The phosphorylation level of pyruvate kinase increased, which may improve bacterial acid stress resistance through formation of energy supply. The phosphorylation level of ABC transporter permease was significantly up-regulated, which may be part of the cell adaptation adjustment and contribute to the survival of A. acidoterrestris under acid stress. In summary, the molecular mechanism of acid stress regulation of A. acidoterrestris was proposed via quantitative phosphoproteomics, which provided a theoretical and experimental basis for further investigation acid resistance mechanism of A. acidoterrestris.

Project description:Escherichia coli O157:H7 has caused serious outbreaks of foodborne illness via transmission in a variety of food vehicles, including unpasteurized apple juice, dried salami, and spinach. To understand how this pathogen responds to the multiple stresses of the food environment, we compared global transcription patterns after exposure to apple juice. Transcriptomes of mid-exponential and stationary phase cells were evaluated after 10 minutes in model apple juice (pH3.5) using microarrays probing 4,886 ORFs. Significant changes in gene expression were determined using R/MAANOVA and the Fs test. A total of 331 ORFs were significantly induced upon exposure of cells to model apple juice and included genes involved in the acid and osmotic stress responses as well as the oxidative stress response and envelope stress. Genes involved in the acid and osmotic stress responses, including asr, osmC, osmB, and osmY were significantly induced in response to model apple juice. Genes involved in the envelope stress response, known to be controlled by CpxR (cpxP, degP, and htpX), were significantly induced 2 to 15 fold upon exposure to apple juice, independent of growth phase. Inactivation of CpxRA resulted in a significant decrease in survival of O157:H7 in model apple juice compared to the isogenic parent strain. Of the 331 ORFs induced in model apple juice, 104 are O157-specific ORFs, including those encoding type three secretion effectors espJ, espB, espM2, espL3 and espZ. By elucidating the response of O157:H7 to acidic foods, we hope to gain insights into how this pathogen is able to survive in food matrices and how exposure to foods affects subsequent transmission and virulence. Keywords: stress The results are based on O157:H7 Sakai exponential and stationary phase cultures grown in MOPS minimal medium and then exposed to model apple juice (pH 3.5, 37C) for 10 minutes. Differences in transcript levels were determined using a mixed model ANOVA in R/MAANOVA which tested for significant differences due to growth phase (exponential or stationary), treatment (MOPS or MAJ) and the interaction of these two factors using the following linear model: array+dye+sample (biological replicate)+ phase+treatment+phase*treatment. We incorporated the dye-swaps among the biological replicates.

Project description:There is increasing evidence to support a role for sigma factor 54 (RpoN) in the regulation of stress resistance factors and protein secretion systems important to bacterial transmission and pathogenesis. In enterohemorrhagic E. coli O157:H7, acid resistance and type III secretion are essential determinants of gastric passage and colonization. This study thus described the transcriptome of an rpoN null strain of E. coli O157:H7 (EcJR-8) to determine the influence of RpoN on virulence and stress resistance gene regulation, and further explored its contribution to glutamate-dependent acid resistance (GDAR). Inactivation of rpoN resulted in the growth phase-dependent, differential expression of 104 genes. This included type III secretion structural and regulatory genes encoded on the locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE), as well as GDAR genes gadA, gadBC and gadE. Upregulation of gad transcript levels in EcJR-8 during logarithmic growth correlated with increased GDAR and survival in a model stomach. Acid susceptibility was reconstituted in EcJR-8 complemented in trans with wild-type rpoN. Acid resistance in EcJR-8 was dependent on exogenous glutamate, gadE and rpoS, but was independent of hns. Results also suggest that GDAR may be controlled by RpoN at multiple regulatory levels. This study supports the hypothesis that RpoN is an important regulator of virulence and stress resistance factors in E. coli O157:H7, and is the first to examine the mechanism by which it represses GDAR. Hybridizations measured transcriptional differences between an rpoN null and wild-type (WT) strain of E. coli O157:H7 Sakai at logarithmic and transition phase. Image files (TIFF) of hybridized microarray slides were generated using an Axon 4000B scanner (Molecular Devices), and analyzed using GenePix Pro software (Molecular Devices, ver. 6.0). The resulting microarray intensity data was log2-transformed, and normalized using the LOWESS algorithm in MAANOVA ver. 0.98-8 (R ver. 2.2.1).
