Project description:Biofilms are surface-adhered bacterial communities encased in an extracellular matrix composed of polysaccharides, proteins, and extracelluar (e)DNA, with eDNA being required for the formation and integrity of biofilms. Here we demonstrate that the spatial and temporal release of eDNA is regulated by BfmR, a regulator essential for Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm development. The expression of bfmR coincided with localized cell death and DNA release, with high eDNA concentrations localized to the outer part of microcolonies in the form of a ring and as a cap on small clusters. Additionally, eDNA release and cell lysis increased significantly following bfmR inactivation. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling indicated that bfmR was required for repression of genes associated with bacteriophage assembly and bacteriophage-mediated lysis. In order to determine which of these genes were directly regulated by BfmR, we utilized chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis to identify the promoter of PA0691, termed here phdA, encoding a previously undescribed homologue of the prevent-host-death (Phd) family of proteins. Lack of phdA expression coincided with impaired biofilm development, increased cell death and bacteriophage release, a phenotype comparable to ΔbfmR. Expression of phdA in ΔbfmR biofilms restored eDNA release, cell lysis, release of bacteriophages, and biofilm formation to wild type levels. Moreover, overexpression of phdA rendered P. aeruginosa resistant to lysis mediated by superinfective bacteriophage Pf4 which was only detected in biofilms. The expression of bfmR was stimulated by conditions resulting in membrane perturbation and cell lysis. Thus, we propose that BfmR regulates biofilm development by controlling bacteriophage-mediated lysis and thus, cell death and eDNA release, via PhdA.

Project description:Electron transport chain (ETC) biogenesis is tightly coupled to energy levels and availability of ETC subunits. Coenzyme Q: cytochrome c oxidoreductase (complex III or CIII) occupies a central position in the ETC, receiving electrons from diverse fuel sources to control the ubiquinol:ubiquinone (CoQH2/CoQ) ratio. As such, CIII is an attractive node for controlling ETC biogenesis during metabolic stress. Here, we report the discovery of mammalian CoOrdinator of Mitochondrial CYTB or “COM” complexes that regulate CIII biogenesis in a step-wise fashion in response to nutrient and nuclear-encoded ETC subunit availability. The COMA complex, consisting of UQCC1/2 and the membrane anchor C16ORF91 (UQCC4), facilitates the translation of CIII enzymatic core subunit CYTB. Subsequently, microproteins SMIM4 and BRAWNIN, together with COMA subunits form the COMB complex that stabilizes nascent CYTB. Finally, UQCC3-containing COMC promotes CTYB maturation and association with downstream CIII subunits. This stepwise assembly enables cells to adapt to metabolic stress by increasing CIII biogenesis and inducing an integrated stress response when challenged. Furthermore, when nuclear CIII subunits are unavailable for assembly, COMB is required to chaperone nascent CYTB to prevent OXPHOS collapse. Our studies highlight CYTB synthesis as a key regulatory node of ETC biogenesis, and uncover the roles of mito-SEPs in mitochondrial homeostasis during energy stress.
