Project description:Bacteria rely on DNA methylation for restriction modification systems and for epigenetic control of gene expression. In Alphaproteobacteria, the CcrM orphan methyltransferase is particularly noteworthy in a range of transcriptional regulation. The wider adoption of nanopore sequencing and updated processing pipelines has made epigenome measurements in bacteria more convenient than before. Here, we validate this approach in Alphaproteobacteria by measuring CcrM-dependent DNA methylation in Caulobacter crescentus and show excellent correlation with other approaches. Continuing in Caulobacter, we directly measure the impact of Lon-mediated CcrM degradation on the epigenome and show that the AlkB demethylase has no global impact on DNA methylation during normal growth. We report on the global DNA methylation in Brucella abortus for the first time and find that CcrM-dependent methylation is reliant on Lon in an unexpected species- and chromosome-specific manner. Finally, we measure the impact of the MucR transcription factor on the Brucella methylome. Given the ease and reduced costs, our work demonstrates the utility of nanopore-based sequencing for epigenome monitoring in Alphaproteobacteria.

Project description:Caulobacter crescentus is an alphaproteobacterium that divides assymetrically. Each cell cycle results in the production of a motile flagellated cell and a sessile cell called the swamer cell and the stalked cell, respectively. The flagellar filament is composed of thousands polymerized flagellins. We showed that glycosylation of flagellins is required for the assembly of the flagellum. This glycosylation is performed by soluble FlmG glycosyltransferases that transfer nonulosonic acids (pseudaminic acid or legionaminic acid) directly to the flagellins. Such glycosylation system is also present in a close relative of Caulobacter crescentus, Brevundimonas subvibrioides. The project is to identify the site of glycosylation and the potential sugar added on this site.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Caulobacter crescentus NA1000 dcdnL mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. In bacteria, transcription of housekeeping genes required for metabolic homeostasis and cell proliferation is guided by the sigma factor σ70. The conserved CarD-like transcriptional regulator, CdnL, associates with promoter regions where σ70 localizes and stabilizes the open promoter complex. Caulobacter crescentus cells lacking CdnL have severe morphological and growth defects. Our microarray experiment demonstrates how cdnL deletion affects the transcriptome of Caulobacter crescentus.

Project description:Bacteria rely on DNA methylation for restriction-modification systems and epigenetic control of gene expression. Here, we use direct detection of methylated bases by nanopore sequencing to monitor global DNA methylation in Alphaproteobacteria, where use of this technique has not yet been reported. One representative of this order, Caulobacter crescentus, relies on DNA methylation to control cell cycle progression, but it is unclear whether other members of this order, such as Brucella abortus, depend on the same systems. We addressed these questions by first measuring CcrM-dependent DNA methylation in Caulobacter and show excellent correlation between nanopore-based detection and previously published results. We then directly measure the impact of Lon-mediated CcrM degradation on the epigenome, verifying that loss of Lon results in pervasive methylation. We also show that the AlkB demethylase has no global impact on DNA methylation during normal growth. Next, we report on the global DNA methylation in Brucella abortus for the first time and find that CcrM-dependent methylation is reliant on Lon but impacts the two chromosomes differently. Finally, we explore the impact of the MucR transcription factor, known to compete with CcrM methylation, on the Brucella methylome and share the results with a publicly available visualization package. Our work demonstrates the utility of nanopore-based sequencing for epigenome measurements in Alphaproteobacteria and reveals new features of CcrM-dependent methylation in a zoonotic pathogen.
