Project description:We recently showed that the two-component system (TCS) HrrSA plays a central role in the control of heme homeostasis in the Gram-positive soil bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum. Here, we characterized the function of another TCS of this organism, ChrSA, which exhibits significant sequence similarity to HrrSA, and provide evidence for cross-regulation of the two systems. In this study ChrSA was shown to be crucial for heme resistance of C. glutamicum by activation of the putative heme-detoxifying ABC-transporter HrtBA in the presence of heme. Deletion of either hrtBA or chrSA resulted in a strongly increased sensitivity towards heme. DNA microarray analysis and gel retardation assays with the purified response regulator ChrA provided evidence for ChrA being a repressor of the heme biosynthesis operon hemAC and hemH and an activator of the ctaE-qcrCAB operon, encoding subunits of the cytochrome bc1-aa3 supercomplex of the respiratory chain. The heme oxygenase gene, hmuO, showed a strongly decreased mRNA level in the M-NM-^TchrSA mutant, but no significant binding of ChrA was observed in vitro. Promoter fusion studies of PchrSA with eyfp indicated positive autoregulation of the chrSA operon in the presence of heme. Interestingly, ChrA was also shown to bind to the hrrA promoter and to repress transcription of the paralog response regulator, suggesting a close link between HrrSA and ChrSA. Mutational analysis and in silico prediction resulted in the deduction of a 16-bp weakly conserved inverted repeat as consensus DNA-binding motif of ChrA. Altogether, the present study emphasizes ChrSA as a second TCS, besides HrrSA, involved in heme-dependent gene regulation in C. glutamicum. To identify the influence of ChrSA on global gene expression , DNA microarray analyses were performed with the M-NM-^TchrSA mutant compared to C. glutamicum wild type. For this purpose RNA was isolated from exponentially growing cells cultivated in CgXII minimal medium with 4% glucose and either 2.5 M-BM-5M FeSO4 or 2.5 M-BM-5M hemin as iron source. Three biological replicates were performed.

Project description:The response regulator HrrA belonging to the HrrSA two-component system (previously named CgtSR11) is known to be repressed by the global iron-dependent regulator DtxR in Corynebacterium glutamicum. Sequence analysis indicated an involvement of the HrrSA system in heme-dependent gene expression. Growth experiments revealed that the non-pathogenic soil bacterium C. glutamicum is able to use hemin or hemoglobin as sole iron source. In DNA microarray analyses a putative operon encoding the hemin-binding protein HtaA and the putative hemin ABC transporter HmuTUV showed a strong upregulation in heme-grown cells. Deletion of the hmu operon clearly affects heme utilization, but does not completely abolish growth on heme or hemoglobin. As a central part of this study, we investigated the regulon of the response regulator HrrA via comparative transcriptome analysis of a hrrA deletion mutant and C. glutamicum wild type in combination with DNA-protein interaction studies with purified HrrA protein. Our data provide evidence for a heme-dependent transcriptional activation of heme oxygenase (hmuO), an enzyme involved in the utilization of heme as iron source. Besides hmuO, HrrA was shown to activate the expression of heme-containing components of the respiratory chain, namely ctaD and the ctaE-qcrCAB operon encoding subunits I and III of cytochrome aa3 oxidase and three subunits of the cytochrome bc1 complex. Furthermore, HrrA represses almost all genes involved in heme biosynthesis, including glutamyl-tRNA reductase (hemA), uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (hemE), and ferrochelatase (hemH). Thus, our data clearly emphasize a central role of the HrrSA system in the control of heme homeostasis in C. glutamicum.

Experiment 1: Transcriptome comparison of wild type grown und FeSO4 or heme as iron source; Exp. 2: WT vs. hrrA deletion mutant grown on FeSO4; Exp. 3: WT vs. hrrA mutant grown on heme. For analysis via DNA microarraysose RNA was isolated from exponentially growing cells cultivated in CgXII medium containing glucose as carbon source and either 2.5 uM FeSO4 or 2.5 uM heme as iron source.

Project description:The female mosquito Aedes aegypti requires amino acids and other nutrients like heme and iron from a blood meal to initiate vitellogenesis. Heme is a pro-oxidant molecule that acts as a nutrient, signaling molecule and in large quantities, as a toxin. Ae. aegypti has developed a few strategies to handle heme toxicity, as during a typical meal ~10mM is released into the midgut lumen. These strategies include heme aggregation to the peritrophic matrix and the degradation of heme by heme oxygenase in the cytosol of the midgut epithelium. However, despite the importance of heme as a nutrient and toxin, the mechanism of entry into the midgut epithelial cells is not currently known. As no heme transport proteins in have been identified in any dipteran, heme fluorescent analog studies were performed to visualize changes in expression caused by heme followed by global expression analyses performed in midgut tissues using NGS-based RNA sequencing with the end goal to identify the gene(s) that encode the membrane bound heme import proteins responsible for heme uptake during blood digestion. Examination of differential expression of mRNA transcripts at the gene level, found 65 significant DE genes at the adjusted p-value cut off of 0.0001, 38 of which are TM containing and only 2 of which showed high expression changes, AAEL019570 (-2.04 log2, ~0.243), unknown function, and AAEL000717 (3.91 log2, ~15.03), a protocadherin. This list was further reduced to 16 genes with potential heme import function and 7 genes with potential heme export function by examination of differential expression, number of TM domains and function relating to transport. As very few highly differentially expressed genes were found in the analysis, heme import may be controlled by a redundant system of multiple transport proteins instead of a single highly expressed one. Alternatively, heme transport in Ae. aegypti could be regulated post-translationally.

Project description:After a bloodmeal, mosquitoes import heme into the midgut epithelium. Heme acts as an essential signal for oogenesis in Aedes aegypti. However, the mechanisms behind heme import in Aedes aegypti are largely unexplored. In this study, RNA sequencing data from 4 different Aedes aegypti cell culture experiments where exposure to an overabundance or deficiency of heme was examined to identify heme-responsive genes. Zinc mesoporphyrin (ZnMP), a heme fluorescent analog, was used to measure changes in heme uptake prior to mRNA sequencing. A soft cluster analysis was performed to identify genes encoding potential membrane bound importers and exporters based on expression profiles across the samples for each experiment. Stronger candidates were obtained by comparing genes in each dataset to each other. When comparing all datasets to each other, 223 candidate genes with expression pattern changes consistent with importers were found to be heme-regulated in only 2 datasets, 46 were heme-regulated in 3 datasets and 2 was heme-regulated in all 4 datasets. In contrast, 114 candidate genes with patterns consistent with exporters were common to only 2 datasets, with just 11 present in 3 of the 4 datasets. A large number of genes containing transmembrane domains were isolated across the 4 datasets which showed downregulation or upregulation in response to heme overexposure conditions indicating the possibility that heme membrane bound import and export genes were identified respectively, with the reverse trend observed in the presence of heme deficiency. However, few transporter candidate genes were identified that showed high differential expression (above 4-fold or below 1/4th fold). Ultimately, as few strong candidates were identified by these studies, we consider the possibility that each cell line could have a redundant system of heme import, whereby multiple transport proteins each contribute to the total heme accumulation in the cell. Alternatively, it is possible that these cells lines do not regulate heme transport at the transcript level, but rather do so post-translationally.
