Project description:Conjugative plasmids are the main vehicle for the horizontal spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Although AMR plasmids provide advantages to their hosts under antibiotic pressure, they can also disrupt the cell’s regulatory network, impacting the fitness of their hosts. Despite the importance of plasmid-bacteria interactions on the evolution of AMR, the effects of plasmid carriage on host physiology has remained underexplored, and most studies have focused on model bacteria and plasmids that lack clinical relevance. Here, we analyzed the transcriptional response of 11 clinical enterobacterial strains (2 Escherichia coli, 1 Citrobacter freundii and 8 Klebsiella spp.) and the laboratory-adapted E. coli MG1655 to carriage of pOXA-48, one of the most widely spread carbapenem-resistance plasmids. Our analyses revealed that pOXA-48 produces variable responses on their hosts, but commonly affects processes related to metabolism, transport, response to stimulus, cellular organization and motility. More notably, the presence of pOXA-48 caused an increase in the expression of a small chromosomal operon of unknown function in Klebsiella spp. and C. freundii, which is not present in E. coli. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that this operon has been horizontally mobilized across different Proteobacteria species. We demonstrate that a pOXA-48-encoded LysR transcriptional regulator controls the expression of the operon in Klebsiella spp. and C. freundii. In summary, our results highlight a crosstalk between pOXA-48 and the chromosome of its natural hosts.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE35746: Comparative analysis of regulatory elements between Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae by genome-wide transcription start site profiling [tiling arrays] GSE35821: Comparative analysis of regulatory elements between Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae by genome-wide transcription start site profiling [TSS-Seq] Refer to individual Series
Project description:We performed shallow whole genome sequencing (WGS) on circulating free (cf)DNA extracted from plasma or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and shallow WGS on the tissue DNA extracted from the biopsy in order to evaluate the correlation between the two biomaterials. After library construction and sequencing (Hiseq3000 or Ion Proton), copy number variations were called with WisecondorX.
Project description:The Antibiotic Resistant Sepsis Pathogens Framework Initiative aims to develop a framework dataset of 5 sepsis pathogens (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes, 5 strains each) using an integrated application of genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic and proteomic technologies. This submission contains the results from six Klebsiella strains (four Klebsiella variicola: AJ005, AJ292, 03-311-0071, 04153260899A and two Klebsiella pneumoniae: AJ218, KPC2) grown in either RPMI or pooled human sera. Six replicates of each condition were subjected to shotgun proteomics and label-free MS1-based quantitation.
Project description:Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of tongue cancer samples and cell line was performed to identify the fusion gene translocation breakpoint. WGS raw data was aligned to human reference genome (GRCh38.p12) using BWA-MEM (v0.7.17). The BAM files generated were further analysed using SvABA (v1.1.3) tool to identify translocation breakpoints. The translocation breakpoints were annotated using custom scripts, using the reference GENCODE GTF (v30). The fusion breakpoints identified in the SvABA analysis were additionally confirmed using MANTA tool (v1.6.0).
