Project description:Abstract of associated manuscript: Daptomycin is the first of a new class of cyclic lipopeptide antibiotics used against multidrug-resistant Gram-positive pathogens. The proposed mechanism of action involves disruption of the functional integrity of the bacterial membrane in a Ca2+-dependent manner. We have used transcriptional profiling to demonstrate that treatment of Bacillus subtilis with daptomycin strongly induces the lia operon including the autoregulatory LiaRS two-component system (homologous to Staphylococcus aureus VraSR). The lia operon protects against daptomycin and deletion of liaH, encoding a phage shock protein A (PspA)-like protein, leads to 3-fold increased susceptibility. Since daptomycin interacts with the membrane, we tested mutants with altered membrane composition for effects on susceptibility. Deletion mutations of mprF (lacking lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol) or des (lipid desaturase) increased daptomycin susceptibility, whereas overexpression of MprF decreased susceptibility. Conversely, depletion of the cell for the anionic lipid phosphatidylglycerol led to increased resistance. Fluorescently-labeled daptomycin localized to the septa and in a helical pattern around the cell envelope and was delocalized upon depletion of phosphatidylglycerol. Together, these results indicate that the daptomycin-Ca2+ complex interacts preferentially with regions enriched in anionic phospholipids and leads to membrane stresses that can be ameliorated by PspA family proteins.

Bacillus subtilis W168, WT (+DAP) vs. WT (-DAP). The experiment was conducted in triplicate using three independent total RNA preparations. For WT-rep1 and WT-rep2, daptomycin treated samples were labeled with Alexa Fluor 647 and untreated samples with Alexa Fluor 555. For WT-rep3, the daptomycin treated sample was labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 and the untreated sample with Alexa Fluor 647.

Project description:Daptomycin is a lipopeptide antibiotic that has recently been approved for treatment of Gram-positive bacterial infections. The mode of action of daptomycin is not yet entirely clear. To further understand the mechanism transcriptomic analysis of changes in gene expression in daptomycin-treated Staphylococcus aureus was carried out. The expression profile indicated that cell wall stress stimulon member genes (B. J. Wilkinson, A. Muthaiyan, and R. K. Jayaswal. 2005. Curr. Med. Chem. Anti-Infective Agents 4: 259-276) were significantly induced by daptomycin, and by the cell wall-active antibiotics vancomycin and oxacillin. Comparison of the daptomycin response of a two-component cell wall stress stimulon regulator VraSR mutant, S. aureus KVR, to its parent N315 showed diminished expression of the cell wall stress stimulon in the mutant. Daptomycin has been proposed to cause membrane depolarization, and the transcriptional responses to carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and nisin were determined. Transcriptional profiles of the responses to these antimicrobial agents showed significantly different patterns compared to those of the cell wall-active antibiotics, including little or no induction of the cell wall stress stimulon. However, there were a significant number of genes induced by both CCCP and daptomycin that were not induced by oxacillin or vancomycin, such that the daptomycin transcriptome was probably reflecting a membrane depolarizing activity of this antimicrobial also. The results indicate that inhibition of peptidoglycan biosynthesis, either directly or indirectly, and membrane depolarization are parts of the mode of action of daptomycin.

Project description:An important, but rarely performed, test of Koch’s molecular postulates involves evaluating the capacity of candidate virulence genes to confer pathogenicity in otherwise non-virulent species. Unbiased genomic surveys of avirulent natural isolates might reveal rare variants possessing specific virulence features, which might prove useful in testing their functional sufficiency. Using a custom pan-genome array, we analyzed a panel of avirulent Burkholderia thailandensis (Bt) isolates related to Burkholderia pseudomallei (Bp), the causative agent of the often fatal human and animal disease melioidosis. We report the discovery of variant Bt isolates exhibiting isolated acquisition of a capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis gene cluster (BpCPS), long regarded as an critical species-specific virulence factor essential for Bp mammalian virulence. BpCPS-expressing Bt strains exhibited certain pathogen-related phenotypes including resistance to human complement binding, but did not exhibit enhanced virulence when assessed in two different in vivo animal infection models. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the BpCPS-expressing Bt strains likely reside within an evolutionary subgroup distinct from the majority of previously-described Bt strains. Our findings suggest that BpCPS acquisition alone is unlikely to fully explain the ability of Bp to colonize humans and animals, highlighting the importance of other collaborating factors in the pathogenesis of mammalian melioidosis. Genomic DNA of several Bt strains were hybridized against a common reference strain (Bt E264), to see gain/loss

Project description:The human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus encodes a specialised type VII secretion system (T7SS), which plays an important role in bacterial virulence during infection. However, the functions the T7SS during infection and in bacterial physiology remain unclear. Here we demonstrate that S. aureus strains lacking the transporter EssC as well as the T7SS effectors, EsxC and EsxA were highly sensitive to the important last resort drug, daptomycin as well as other membrane-targeting antibiotics, including gramicidin and bithionol. To understand how T7SS mediates increased antibiotic sensitivity, we investigated the impact of T7SS on the staphylococcal cell envelope. Interestingly, T7SS mutants displayed decreased membrane fluidity with altered localisation of cell membrane proteins such as flotillin under normal growth conditions. LC/MS analysis showed different protein profiles in the mutant membrane preparations compared to the WT, suggesting that T7SS impacts membrane homeostasis. Scanning electron microscopy analysis demonstrated distinct cell surface morphologies for the T7SS mutants, with altered cell wall synthesis as well cell surface charge. In line with the increased negative surface charge, daptomycin binding was enhanced in the mutants, which demonstrated increased membrane permeability when treated with the drug. T7SS mutants were more sensitive to daptomycin during intracellular infection, and furthermore, in a murine skin infection model, esxC mutants survived less than the WT when treated with daptomycin. Thus, our data show that the T7SS impacts sensitivity of S. aureus to membrane-acting drugs such as daptomycin through modulation of cell membrane integrity, indicating its potential as a drug target

Project description:Daptomycin is an extensively used anti-staphylococcal agent due to the rise in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. However, both laboratory-derived and clinical decreased susceptibility isolates have been described, but the mechanism(s) of resistance is poorly understood. To further understand daptomycin resistance, comparative genome sequencing, transcriptomics, ultrastructure ,and cell envelope studies were carried out on two relatively higher level (4 and 8 ug/ml-1) laboratory-derived daptomycin-resistant strains (strains CB1541 and CB1540 respectively) compared to their methicillin-resistant parent strain (CB1118;MW2). Genes altered in their expression common to both transcriptomes included some involved in glycine betaine accumulation, mscL, ure genes, femH, spa and smpB. However, the CB1541 transcriptome was further characterized by upregulation of various heat shock chaperone and protease genes, consistent with a mutation in clpP, and lytM and sceD. Both strains showed slow growth, and strongly decreased autolytic activity that appeared to be mainly due to decreased autolysin production. In contrast to previous common findings, we did not find any mutations in phospholipid biosynthesis genes, and it appears there are multiple pathways to and factors in daptomycin resistance.

Project description:Daptomycin (DAP) is the last-resort treatment for heterogeneous Vancomycin-Intermediate-Staphylococcus aureus (hVISA) and Vancomycin-Intermediate-S.aureus (VISA), and DAP-resistance onset which is also linked to reduced vancomycin susceptibility, is an increasing public health problem. To have more insight into the mechanisms of daptomycin resistance, the comparative transcriptomes of two DAP-R (1C-3B) clinical isogenic isolates vs their DAP-S (1A-3A) counterparts were investigated by Illumina RNA-seq, the Rockhopper tool, computational filtering analyses and bioinformatic tools.
