Project description:Despite the well-known toxicity of uranium (U) to bacteria, little is known about how cells sense and respond to U. The recent finding of a U-specific stress response in Caulobacter crescentus has provided a foundation for studying the mechanisms of U- perception in bacteria. To gain insight into this process, we used a forward genetic screen to identify the regulatory components governing expression of the urcA promoter (PurcA) that is strongly induced by U. This approach unearthed a previously uncharacterized two-component system, UzcRS, which is responsible for U-dependent activation of PurcA. UzcRS is also highly responsive to zinc and copper, revealing a broader specificity than previously thought. Using ChIP-seq, we found that UzcR binds extensively throughout the genome in a metal-dependent manner and recognizes a non-canonical DNA binding site. Coupling the genome-wide occupancy data with RNA-seq analysis revealed that UzcR is a global regulator of transcription, predominately activating genes encoding proteins that are localized to the cell envelope; these include metallopeptidases, multidrug resistant efflux (MDR) pumps, TonB-dependent receptors and many proteins of unknown function. Collectively, our data suggest that UzcRS couples detection of U, Zn and Cu with a novel extracytoplasmic stress response.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Caulonacter crescentus NA1000 Plac::CCNA_00382 (ccrM) mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. The mutations engineered into this strain cause the CcrM DNA methyltransferase to be overexpressed and the chromosome to be constitutively methylated at the adenine at GANTC motifs.

A six chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate wild-type cultures of Caulonacter crescentus NA1000 and three separate cultures of a triple mutant strain, Caulonacter crescentus NA1000 Plac::CCNA_00382 (ccrM), in which the ccrM gene coding for a DNA methyltransferase methylating the adenine in GANTC motifs is truncated and its product inactive. Each chip measures the expression level of 3933 genes from Caulobacter crescentus NA1000 with 3 probes per gene and with three-fold technical redundancy.

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:Supporting data for Hottes et al., "DnaA coordinates replication initiation and cell cycle transcription in Caulobacter crescentus" The microarray component of this work monitors mRNA expression during the cell cycle of synchronized populations of Caulobacter crescentus cells. Transcription during the normal cell cycle is compared with transcription during a cell cycle where expression of dnaA, which encodes a key DNA replication initiation factor, is delayed.

Project description:We sought to define the transcriptional regulon of the ChvI response regulator in Caulobacter crescentus. This study compares gene expression between ∆chvI cells and cells overexpressing the constitutively-active chvI(D52E) mutant. Our work provides a global view of the genes directly and indirectly regulated by the ChvGI two-component system in C. crescentus.

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.
