Project description:Filamentous fungi are confronted with changes and limitations of their carbon source during growth in their natural habitats and during industrial applications. To survive life-threatening starvation conditions, carbon from extra- and intracellular resources becomes mobilized to fuel fungal self-propagation. Key to understand the underlying cellular processes is the system-wide analysis of fungal starvation responses in a temporal and spatial resolution. The knowledge deduced is important for the development of optimized industrial production processes. This study describes the physiological, morphological and genome-wide transcriptional changes caused by prolonged carbon starvation during submerged batch cultivation of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger. Bioreactor cultivation supported highly reproducible growth conditions and monitoring of physiological parameters. Changes in hyphal growth and morphology were analyzed at distinct cultivation phases using automated image analysis. The Affymetrix GeneChip platform was used to establish genome-wide transcriptional profiles for three selected time points during prolonged carbon starvation. Compared to the exponential growth transcriptome, about 50% (7,292) of all genes displayed differential genes expression during at least one of the starvation time points. Enrichment analysis of Gene Ontology, Pfam domain and KEGG pathway annotations uncovered autophagy and asexual reproduction as major global transcriptional trends. Induced transcription of genes encoding hydrolytic enzymes was accompanied by increased secretion of hydrolases including chitinases, glucanases, proteases and phospholipases as identified by mass spectrometry. This study is the first system-wide analysis of the carbon starvation response in a filamentous fungus. Morphological, transcriptomic and secretomic analyses identified key events important for fungal survival and their chronology. The dataset obtained forms a comprehensive framework for further elucidation of the interrelation and interplay of the individual cellular events involved. for each post-exponential time point (Day1, Day3 and Day6 post-carbon depletion), biological duplicates were performed.

Project description:Background: Idiopathic Chronic Diarrhea (ICD) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality among juvenile rhesus macaques. Characterized by chronic inflammation of the colon and repeated bouts of diarrhea, ICD is largely unresponsive to medical interventions including corticosteroid, antiparasitic and antibiotic treatments. Although ICD is accompanied by large disruptions in the composition of the commensal gut microbiome, no single pathogen has been concretely identified as responsible for the onset and continuation of the disease. Results: Fecal samples were collected from twelve ICD-diagnosed macaques and twelve age and sex-matched controls. RNA was extracted for metatranscriptomic analysis of species and activity within the gut microbiome. Using SAMSA2, these samples were contrasted to identify shifts both in overall organism activity and functional activity. Bacterial, fungal, archaeal, protozoan, and macaque (host) transcripts were simultaneously assessed. ICD-afflicted animals were characterized by increased activity of known bacterial pathogens and by decreased activity of archaeal methanogens. Interestingly, known fungal opportunists were not increased in ICD, nor were the usual enteric protozoans, although Trichomonas activity is up-regualted. Known mucin degrading organisms and mucin-degrading enzymes were up-regulated in the fecal microbiomes of ICD-afflicted animals. Assessment of colon sections using immunohistochemistry confirmed differential mucin composition between healthy control and ICD animals. Finally, assessment of host-derived transcripts confirms colonic inflammation and suggests that the lumen is infiltrated by granulocytes. Conclusions: The simultaneous profiling of bacterial, fungal, archaeal, protozoan, and macaque transcripts from stool samples suggests that ICD of rhesus macaques is associated with increased pathogen activity and altered mucin degradation.

Project description:Since their discovery, archaea have not only proven a fascinating domain in their own right, but also helped us understand the evolution and function of molecular components they share with bacteria or eukaryotes. Archaeal histones are homologous to their eukaryotic counterparts, but operate in a less constrained bacterial-like cellular environment and their role in transcription and genome function remains obscure. In order to understand how archaeal histones affect transcriptional processes, we induced expression of the two histones from the archaeon Methanothermus fervidus in a naive bacterial system (E. coli) that has not evolved to integrate this kind of proteins. We show, using a series of MNase digestion experiments, that these histones bind the bacterial genome and wrap DNA in vivo in a pattern consistent with a previously proposed multimerisation model, in a similar pattern observed natively. We correlate genome-wide occupancy maps and gene expression profiles in different phases of growth to show that – although expression of archaeal histones triggers morphological changes in E. coli – there appears to only be an indirect effect on transcription.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogenic micro-organism responsible for many hospital-acquired infections. It is able to adhere to solid surfaces and develop an immobilised community or so-called biofilm. Many studies have been focusing on the use of specific materials to prevent the formation of these biofilms, but the reactivity of the bacteria in contact to surfaces remains unknown. In order to evaluate the impact of different materials on the physiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa during the first stage of biofilm formation, i.e. adhesion, we investigated the total proteome of cells adhering to three materials: stainless steel, glass and polystyrene. Using tandem mass spectrometry performed at the PAPPSO proteomic platform, 930 proteins were identified, 70 of which were differentially expressed between the materials. Dysregulated proteins belonged to 19 PseudoCAP (Pseudomonas Community Annotation Project) functional classes, with a particular abundance of proteins involved in small molecule transport and membrane proteins. Notably, ten porins or porin precursors were under-produced in bacteria adhering to stainless steel when compared to those adhering to polystyrene and glass. Although adhesion to solid surfaces is an extracellular phenomenon, it involves not only extracellular proteins but also intracellular reactions, as observed with the dysregulation of 11 proteins involved in various metabolisms and five in protein translation. Overall, this work showed that during bacterial adhesion, P. aeruginosa senses the materials concerned and is able to modulate its physiology accordingly.

Project description:Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are ubiquitous throughout bacterial and archaeal genomes. TA systems consist of a stable toxin that inhibits growth and a labile antitoxin that prevents toxicity of the toxin. Here we made an artificial TA system (arT/arA) and performed a DNA microarray study for overproduction of the toxin.
