Project description:In E. coli the phosphate homeostasis is regulated by the Pst system and the two-component system PhoB/R. Pathogens like E. coli O157:H7 are responsible for many outbreaks and can be found and survive in poor inorganic phosphate (Pi) environments. To understand global EHEC O157:H7 EDL933 strain responses to Pi-starvation, we compared the transcriptomes of EDL933 the WT strain grown in MOPS Pi rich medium and that grown in MOPS Pi poor medium, using the Affymetrix GeneChip® E. coli Genome 2.0 Array. Also we investigated the EDL933 global response to the absence of PhoB by comparing the transcriptomes of the WT strain the ΔphoB mutant both grown in Low Pi

Project description:Two lineages of enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EDL933, Stx1+ and Stx2+) and 86-24 (Stx2+) were investigated in regards to biofilm formation on an abiotic surface. Strikingly, EDL933 strain formed a robust biofilm while 86-24 strain formed no biofilm on either a polystyrene plate or a polyethylene tube. To identify the genetic mechanisms of different biofilm formation in two EHEC strains, DNA microarrays were first performed and phenotypic assays were followed. In the comparison of the EDL933 strain versus 86-24 strain, genes (csgBAC and csgDEFG) involved in curli biosynthesis were significantly induced while genes (trpLEDCB and mtr) involved in indole signaling were repressed. Additionally, a dozen of phage genes were differentially present between two strains. Curli assays using a Congo red plate and scanning electron microscopy corroborate the microarray data as the EDL 933 strain produces a large amount of curli, while 86-24 forms much less curli. Also, the indole production in the EDL933 was 2-times lower than that of 86-24. It was known that curli formation positively regulates and indole negatively regulates biofilm formation of EHEC. Hence, it appears that less curli formation and high indole production in the 86-24 strain are majorly responsible for no biofilm formation.

Project description:Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a food-borne pathogen that causes bloody diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome. Hfq is an sRNA chaperone protein that is involved in post-transcriptional regulation of virulence genes in pathogenic bacteria. In EHEC strain EDL933, Hfq acts a negative regulator of the locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) that encodes most of the proteins involved in type three secretion and attaching and effacing lesions. We deleted hfq in E. coli O157:H7 strain 86-24 and compared global transcription profiles of the hfq mutant to the wild type strain in exponential growth phase. Deletion of hfq affected transcription of genes common to nonpathogenic and pathogenic strains of E. coli as well as pathogen-specific genes. Downregulated genes in the hfq mutant included ler as well as genes encoded in LEE2-5 that encode for type three secretion and AE lesion formation. Decreased expression of the LEE genes in the hfq mutant occurred at mid-, late, and stationary growth phases in both LB and DMEM media as detected by qRT-PCR. We also confirmed decreased regulation of the LEE genes by examining secreted proteins and AE lesion formation by the hfq mutant and WT strains. Deletion of hfq also caused decreased expression of the two-component system qseBC involved in inter-kingdom signaling and virulence gene regulation in EHEC as well as an increase in stx2AB expression that encodes for the deadly Shiga toxin. Altogether, these data indicate that Hfq plays a different regulatory role in EHEC 86-24 from what has been reported for EHEC strain EDL933 and that the role of Hfq in EHEC virulence regulation extends beyond the LEE.

Also we investigated the EDL933 global response to the absence of PhoB by comparing the transcriptomes of the WT strain the ΔphoB mutant both grown in Low Pi EDL933WT strain and its isogenic mutant ΔphoB were grown in Pi- and/or in Pi+ conditions until the OD600 reached respectively 0.55 to 0.6. Samples equal to 5.108 CFU were taken from this mid log phase and processed for transcriptomes analysis. Ten µg of RNAs were extracted and retro-transcripted. One µg of the fragmented and biotinylated cDNAs, were hybridized onto Affymetrix GeneChip® E. coli. The data were processed using the FlexArray® software; RMA normalization and the levels of transcription obtained from 3 biological replicates of each experimental condition were compared using the EB (Wright & Simon) algorithm. We then conducted comparisons between EDL933WT grown in Pi- and in Pi+ conditions (comparison A) and between EDL933WT and EDL933∆phoB strains both grown in Pi- (comparison B). The differentially expression conditions corresponded to 2-fold change (FC) cut-off and p-value < 0.05.

For the microarray experiments, E. coli O157:H7 EDL933 and 86-24 were inoculated in 25 ml of LB in 250 ml shake flasks with overnight cultures that were diluted 1:100. Cells were shaken at 250 rpm and 37°C for an absorbance of 4.0 at 600 nm. Cells were immediately chilled with dry ice and 95% ethanol (to prevent RNA degradation) for 30 sec before centrifugation in 50 ml centrifuge tubes at 13,000 g for 2 min; cell pellets were frozen immediately with dry ice and stored -80°C. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy mini Kit (Valencia, CA, USA). RNA quality was assessed by Agilent 2100 bioanalyser using the RNA 6000 Nano Chip (Agilent Technologies, Amstelveen, The Netherlands), and quantity was determined by ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies, Inc., DE, USA).

Project description:The transcriptome of Escherichia coli K-12 has been widely studied over a variety of conditions for the past decade while such studies involving E. coli O157:H7, its pathogenic cousin, are just now being conducted. To better understand the impact of an anaerobic environment on E. coli O157:H7, global transcript levels of strain EDL933 cells grown aerobically were compared to cells grown anaerobically using microarrays.
