Project description:The planktonic versus biofilm gene expression arrays were performed in a/alpha cell types. Gene expression arrays were performed on planktonic vs biofilm cells grown in Spider medium at 37C. Normalized data is reported in matrix. Biofilm strains (48 hour biofilms) were compared to planktonic strains (log phase planktonic cells) in Spider medium at 37C.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans cells grown under planktonic and biofilm-inducing conditions, comparing SN76 and sfl1Δ/sfl1Δ strains. Goal was to study the effect of SFL1 deletion on the transcriptomic profile of C. albicans planktonic and biofilm cells under acidic conditions, in order to reveal the function of the Sfl1 transcription factor in C. albicans biofilm development.

Project description:The global extracellular protease substrate specificity of C. albicans under biofilm and planktonic (suspension) conditions was determined with a synthetic library of 14-mer peptide substrates using an approach termed Multiplex Substrate Profiling by Mass Spectrometry (MSP-MS). Shotgun proteomics analysis on conditioned media from C. albicans grown under biofilm and planktonic conditions was performed to identify the corresponding proteases.

Project description:Biofilm formation on medically implanted devices by Candida albicans poses a significant clinical challenge. Here we compared biofilm-associated gene expression in two clinical C. albicans isolates, SC5314 and WO-1, to identify shared gene regulatory responses that may be functionally relevant. Among the 50 genes most highly expressed in biofilms relative to planktonic (suspension-grown) cells, we were able to recover insertion mutations in 25 genes. We observed that 20 of the 25 mutants have altered biofilm-related properties, including cell-substrate adherence, cell-cell signaling, and azole susceptibility. We focused on the most highly up-regulated gene in biofilms, RHR2, which specifies the glycerol biosynthetic enzyme glycerol-3-phosphate phosphatase. Glycerol is 5-fold more abundant in biofilm cells than planktonic cells, and an rhr2D/D strain accumulates 2-fold less biofilm glycerol than the wild type. Under in vitro growth conditions, the rhr2D/D mutant has reduced biofilm biomass and reduced adherence to silicone. The rhr2D/D mutant is severely defective in biofilm formation in vivo, in a rat catheter infection model. Expression profiling of the rhr2D/D mutant indicates that it has reduced expression of cell surface adhesin genes ALS1, ALS3, and HWP1, as well as a large fraction of all other biofilm up-regulated genes. Reduced adhesin expression is the cause of the rhr2D/D mutant biofilm defect, because overexpression of ALS1, ALS3, or HWP1 restores biofilm formation ability to the mutant in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that internal glycerol has a regulatory role in biofilm gene expression, and that adhesin genes are among the main functional Rhr2-regulated genes.

Project description:Candida albicans can stochastically switch between two phenotypes, white and opaque. Opaque cells are the sexually competent form of C. albicans and therefore undergo efficient polarized growth and mating in the presence of pheromone. In contrast, white cells cannot mate, but are induced - under a specialized set of conditions - to form biofilms in response to pheromone. In this work, we compare the genetic regulation of such "pheromone-stimulated" biofilms with that of "conventional" C. albicans biofilms. In particular, we examined a network of six transcriptional regulators (Bcr1, Brg1, Efg1, Tec1, Ndt80, and Rob1) that mediate conventional biofilm formation for their potential roles in pheromone-stimulated biofilm formation. We show that four of the six transcription factors (Bcr1, Brg1, Rob1, and Tec1) promote formation of both conventional and pheromone-stimulated biofilms, indicating they play general roles in cell cohesion and biofilm development. In addition, we identify the master transcriptional regulator of pheromone-stimulated biofilms as C. albicans Cph1, ortholog of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ste12. Cph1 regulates mating in C. albicans opaque cells, and here we show that Cph1 is also essential for pheromone-stimulated biofilm formation in white cells. In contrast, Cph1 is dispensable for the formation of conventional biofilms. The regulation of pheromone- stimulated biofilm formation was further investigated by transcriptional profiling and genetic analyses. These studies identified 206 genes that are induced by pheromone signaling during biofilm formation. One of these genes, HGC1, is shown to be required for both conventional and pheromone-stimulated biofilm formation. Taken together, these observations compare and contrast the regulation of conventional and pheromone-stimulated biofilm formation in C. albicans, and demonstrate that Cph1 is required for the latter, but not the former. 4 condition experiment: white and opaque cells in planktonic and pheromone-induced biofilm conditions with and without alpha pheromone.
