Project description:The ParS/ParR two component regulatory system plays important roles for multidrug resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In this study we report RNA-seq analyses of the transcriptomes of P. aeruginosa PAO1 wild type and par mutants growing in a minimal medium containing 2% casamino acids. This has allowed the quantification of PAO1 transcriptome, and further defines the regulon that is dependent on the ParS/ParR system for expression. Our RNA-seq analysis produced the first estimates of absolute transcript abundance for the 5570 coding genes in P. aeruginosa PAO1. Comparative transcriptomics of P. aeruginosa PAO1 and par mutants identified a total of 464 genes regulated by ParS and ParR. Results also showed that mutations in the parS/parR system abolished the expression of the mexEF-oprN operon by down-regulating the regulatory gene mexS. In addition to affecting drug resistance genes, transcripts of quorum sensing genes (rhlIR and pqsABCDE-phnAB), were significantly up-regulated in both parS and parR mutants. Consistent with these results, a significant portion of the ParS/ParR regulated genes belonged to the MexEF-OprN and quorum sensing regulons. Deletion of par genes also lead to overproduction of phenazines and increased swarming motility, consistent with the up-regulation of quorum sensing genes. Our results established a link among ParS/ParR, MexEF-OprN and quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Based on these results, we propose a model to illustrate the relationship among these regulatory systems in P. aeruginosa.

A total of 9 samples were analyzed in AB medium + 2% casamino acids, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 wild type strain (3 replicates); Pseudomonas aeruginosa parS mutant (3 replicates); Pseudomonas aeruginosa parR mutant (3 replicates).

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a predominant pathogen in chronic lung infections in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Epidemic strains of P. aeruginosa, such as the Liverpool Epidemic Strain (LES), are capable of transferring between CF patients and have been associated with increased hospital visits and antibiotic treatments. Comparative genomics and phenotypic assays have shown that antibiotic resistance profiles differ among LES isolates and that genotype–phenotype associations are difficult to establish for resistance phenotypes in clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa based on these comparisons alone. We compared two LES isolates, LESlike1 and LESB58, and the common laboratory strain P. aeruginosa PAO1 using label-free quantitative proteomics to more accurately predict functional differences between strains. The proteomes of the LES isolates were found to be more similar to each other than to PAO1. However, we also observed a number of differences in the abundance of proteins involved in quorum sensing, virulence, and antibiotic resistance, including in the comparison of LESlike1 and LESB58. Specifically, the proteomic data revealed a higher abundance of proteins involved in polymyxin and aminoglycoside resistance in LESlike1. Minimum inhibitory concentration assays confirmed that LESlike1 has higher resistance to antibiotics from these classes. These findings provide an example of the ability of proteomic data to complement genotypic and phenotypic studies to understand resistance in clinical isolates.

Project description:We report a next-generation sequencing of total RNA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 grown in presence of rosmarinic acid (RA) 100mM. Data analysis in comparison with cells grown in absence of RA revealed that the plant compound RA induces a broad transcriptional response in this bacterium, quite similar to the quorum sensing response.

Project description:The gene PA2384 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, annotated originally as unknown function, has been previously shown to be dramatically responsive to iron limitation. In the present study, PA2384 is shown by bioinformatics analysis to have a weak similarity to the N-termini DNA binding domain of fur, a well-known ferric uptake regulator. To experimentally investigate the function of PA2384 P. aeruginosa PAO1 recombinant (pUCP20::PA2384) overexpressing PA2384 and PA2384 knock-out mutant PAO1-23844 are constructed and studied. Physiological characterization in a carefully controlled cultivation system shows that the knockout strain needed a longer lag phase to grow and exhibited a significantly reduced production speed of siderophore (pyoverdine and pyochelin) in the stationary phase. Genome-scale transcriptional profiles at different growth stages are compared between the wild type and ∆PA2384 mutant grown under iron-limiting conditions. The expression of more than 350 genes is affected. Among them, seventy-one genes involved in iron uptake are significantly induced by PA2384. 102 quorum sensing (QS) dependent genes exhibited differential transcription. They include genes related to the biosynthesis of some important virulence factors such as pyocyanin, rhamnolipids and hydrogen cyanide. Transcription of genes responsible for the synthesis of Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS) is greatly advanced by the knockout of PA2384. We postulate that PA2384 affects QS via PQS. Furthermore, the knockout of PA2384 also results in altered expression of genes involved in electron transfer, central metabolism, phosphorus starvation and translation. It implies that PA2384 may affect more basic physiology than only respond to iron uptake and is a versatile global regulator in P. aeruginosa under iron starvation.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The P. aeruginosa CF isolate PASS4 has reduced ability to catabolise various carbon sources however can grow on DNA as a sole carbon source but, with a higher biomass production than P. aeruginosa burns wound, laboratory strain PAO1. Therefore, proteomic profiling of PASS4 and PAO1 was conducted following growth on DNA as a sole carbon source. To compare the protein expression of P. aeruginosa strains PAO1 and PASS4 following growth in DNA, the amino acid, asparagine was used a control condition, as asparagine was one of the amino acids PASS4 could utilise.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen in the lungs of the cystic fibrosis patients. As infection develops the organism progressively adapts to its environment and its mode of pathogenesis alters, frequently including the loss of quorum sensing regulated virulence factors. We used microarrays to detail differences between two P. aeruginosa isolates from CF patients, one of which (UUPA38) exhibited an active quorum sensing system (QS+) typical of early acute infection while the other (UUPA85) was QS-compromised (QS-) typical of chronic CF-adapted infection.

Project description:Pf4 is a filamentous bacteriophage integrated as a prophage into the genome of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Pf4 virions can be produced without killing P. aeruginosa. Cell lysis can however occur during superinfection when Pf virions successfully infect a host lysogenized by a Pf superinfective variant. We have previously shown that infection of P. aeruginosa PAO1 with a superinfective Pf4 variant led to abolish twitching motility and to alter biofilm’s architecture. More precisely, the cells embedded into the biofilm were showing for most of them a filamentous morphology, that could be related to the activation of the cell envelope stress response involving both the AlgU and SigX extra cytoplasmic function sigma factors. Herein, we show that Pf4 variant-infection resulted also into a drastic dysregulation of 3,360 genes representing about 58% of P. aeruginosa’s genome, of which about 43% of the virulence factors encoding genes showing a down-regulation. Accordingly, Pf4 variant infection (termed Pf4*) causes in vivo reduction of P. aeruginosa virulence, decreased production of N-acyl-homoserine lactones and 2-alkyl-4-quinolones quorum sensing molecules, and related virulence factors, such as pyocyanin, elastase, and pyoverdine. In addition to virulence encoding genes, expression of genes involved in metabolism, including energy generation and iron homeostasis, was affected, suggesting further relationships between virulence and central metabolism. Altogether, these data suggest that Pf4 phage variant infection results in complex networks dysregulations, leading to reducing acute virulence in P. aeruginosa. This work contributes to the comprehension of the bacterial response to filamentous phage infection.
