Project description:Purpose: Klebsiella oxytoca M5a1 (previously Klebsiella pneumonia M5a1) is a principle model organism for free-living biological nitrogen fixation. This strain has been used for decades in the characterisation of nitrogenase function and the genetic regulation of nitrogen fixation physiology. Currently it represents a key model for synthetic biology and biotechnology approaches. This project involves a multi-omics approach to modelling nitrogen physiology in Klebsiella oxytoca M5a1, in order to inform rational genetic engineering for improved nitrogen fixation activity. Here we studied the transition from nitrogen replete (high NH4Cl) to nitrogen starved (NH4Cl run-out) conditions, the latter of which induce nif gene expression and synthesis of the nitrogenase enzyme. We mapped RNA-sequencing (Illumina) reads to our assembled M5aI genome in order to compare the transcriptome between nitrogen replete and nitrogen fixing conditions using differential gene expression (DEG) analysis. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from fixed M5a1 cell samples after culturing in nitrogen replete (10 mM NH4Cl; one replicate) or nitrogen starved (3 hours after complete run-out of 0.5 mM NH4Cl; two replicates) growth medium (NFDM). cDNA libraries were prepared for Illumina (NextSeq 500) sequencing, with a read length of 75 nt and a depth of 100 million reads. Following processing and quality control, sequence reads were mapped to a M5a1 genomic template (GenBank WGS accession JAFHKG010000000; BioSample SAMN17288411) and gene count normalisation performed (RPKM). Differential gene expression analysis was performed using the DEseq2 package utilising settings of regularized logarithm (rlog) normalisation of read counts, Wald hypothesis testing and p-value adjustment using a False Discovery Rate threshold of 0.05. Log2 fold changes between conditions were calculated for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with an adjusted p value of <0.05. Results: Across the three samples, between 22.0-25.1 million reads (81.4-87.7%) were mapped to the genome, including 56.7-68.5% mapped to annotated genes. More than 50% of genes (2694/5279 genes) were differentially expressed (adjusted p-value <0.05) in the nitrogen starved condition with respect to the nitrogen replate condition. 925 genes were upregulated and 1117 genes downregulated by more than 2-fold. Of these, 1515 differentially expressed genes correspond to annotated proteins in the KEGG functional orthology (KO) database. The 20 nitrogen fixation (nif) genes were ranked among the 200 genes with highest calculated expression values (RPKM) in the nitrogen starved condition. Conclusions: Our study provides a detailed insight into the global gene expression profile associated with diazotrophic (nitrogen fixing) growth, revealing a dominant role for nif and other nitrogen regulatory genes in the adaptation to nitrogen stress, in addition to a large array of secondary genes indirectly associated with shifts in metabolism and growth phenotype (e.g. metabolic enzymes, gene expression machinery, transporters).

Project description:Temperate bacteriophages with plasmid prophages are uncommon in nature, and of these only phages N15 and PY54 are known to have a linear plasmid prophage with closed hairpin telomeres. We report here the complete nucleotide sequence of the 51,601-bp Klebsiella oxytoca linear plasmid pKO2, and we demonstrate experimentally that it is also a prophage. We call this bacteriophage phiKO2. An analysis of the 64 predicted phiKO2 genes indicate that it is a fairly close relative of phage N15; they share a mosaic relationship that is typical of different members of double-stranded DNA tailed-phage groups. Although the head, tail shaft, and lysis genes are not recognizably homologous between these phages, other genes such as the plasmid partitioning, replicase, prophage repressor, and protelomerase genes (and their putative targets) are so similar that we predict that they must have nearly identical DNA binding specificities. The phiKO2 virion is unusual in that its phage lambda-like tails have an exceptionally long (3,433 amino acids) central tip tail fiber protein. The phiKO2 genome also carries putative homologues of bacterial dinI and umuD genes, both of which are involved in the host SOS response. We show that these divergently transcribed genes are regulated by LexA protein binding to a single target site that overlaps both promoters.

Project description:Klebsiella oxytoca is known to be a pathogen in immunodeficient adults and children. Here we report the first case of a K. oxytoca infection associated with spontaneous arthritis of the knee in a child with no history of immunosuppressive therapy or previous bacterial infections. Despite an initial antibiotic treatment failure, a second treatment led to a cure of the infection with no joint sequelae.

Project description:Bacterial genes associated with a single trait are often grouped in a contiguous unit of the genome known as a gene cluster. It is difficult to genetically manipulate many gene clusters because of complex, redundant, and integrated host regulation. We have developed a systematic approach to completely specify the genetics of a gene cluster by rebuilding it from the bottom up using only synthetic, well-characterized parts. This process removes all native regulation, including that which is undiscovered. First, all noncoding DNA, regulatory proteins, and nonessential genes are removed. The codons of essential genes are changed to create a DNA sequence as divergent as possible from the wild-type (WT) gene. Recoded genes are computationally scanned to eliminate internal regulation. They are organized into operons and placed under the control of synthetic parts (promoters, ribosome binding sites, and terminators) that are functionally separated by spacer parts. Finally, a controller consisting of genetic sensors and circuits regulates the conditions and dynamics of gene expression. We applied this approach to an agriculturally relevant gene cluster from Klebsiella oxytoca encoding the nitrogen fixation pathway for converting atmospheric N(2) to ammonia. The native gene cluster consists of 20 genes in seven operons and is encoded in 23.5 kb of DNA. We constructed a "refactored" gene cluster that shares little DNA sequence identity with WT and for which the function of every genetic part is defined. This work demonstrates the potential for synthetic biology tools to rewrite the genetics encoding complex biological functions to facilitate access, engineering, and transferability.

Project description:The beta-lactamase genes of Klebsiella oxytoca were previously divided into two main groups: bla(OXY-1) and bla(OXY-2). The two beta-lactamase groups were each represented by beta-lactamases with four different pIs. In each group, one form of beta-lactamase is more frequent than the others combined. The beta-lactamase gene of each representative beta-lactamase with a different pI that was not yet sequenced (pIs 5.7, 6.8 [OXY-2], 7.1, 8.2, and 8.8 [OXY-1]) was cloned and sequenced. The susceptibility patterns as well as relative rates and kinetic parameters for beta-lactam hydrolysis revealed that OXY-2 enzymes hydrolyzed several of the beta-lactams that were examined (carbenicillin, cephalothin, cefamandole, ceftriaxone, and aztreonam) at a greater rate than the OXY-1 enzymes did. Comparison of K. oxytoca beta-lactamases with plasmid-mediated extended-spectrum beta-lactamases MEN-1 and TOHO-1 implied that the threonine at position 168 present in OXY-2 beta-lactamase instead of the alanine in OXY-1 could be responsible for its modified substrate hydrolysis. In each group, the beta-lactamase with a variant pI differs from the main form of beta-lactamase by one to five amino acid substitutions. The substrate profile and the 50% inhibitory concentrations revealed that all substitutions differing from the main form of beta-lactamase were neutral except one difference in the OXY-1 group. This substitution of an Ala to a Gly at position 237 increases the hydrolysis of some beta-lactams, particularly aztreonam; decreases the hydrolysis of benzylpenicillin, cephaloridine, and cefamandole, and decreases the susceptibility to clavulanic acid (fivefold increase in the 50% inhibitory concentration).

Project description:The present work reports the detection of the first case of nosocomial Klebsiella oxytoca producing class A carbapenemase KPC-2 in Brazil. The isolate KPN106 carried a 65-kb IncW-type plasmid that harbors the blaKPC gene and Tn4401b. Moreover, we detected the presence of a class 1 integron containing a new allele, arr-8, followed by a 5'-truncated dhfrIIIc gene. In view of the recent results, we emphasize the high variability of the bacterial and genetic hosts of this resistance determinant.

Project description:There is little information about carbapenemase-producing (CP) Klebsiella oxytoca, an important nosocomial pathogen. We characterized CP K. oxytoca isolates collected from different Spanish hospitals between January 2016 and October 2017. During the study period, 139 nonduplicate CP K. oxytoca isolates were identified; of these, 80 were studied in detail. Carbapenemase and extended-spectrum β-lactamase genes were identified by PCR and sequencing. Genetic relatedness was studied by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Whole-genome sequencing (WGS), carried out on 12 representative isolates, was used to identify the resistome, to elucidate the phylogeny, and to determine the plasmids harboring carbapenemase genes. Forty-eight (60%) isolates produced VIM-1, 30 (37.5%) produced OXA-48, 3 (3.7%) produced KPC-2, 2 (2.5%) produced KPC-3, and 1 (1.2%) produced NDM-1; 4 isolates coproduced two carbapenemases. By PFGE, 69 patterns were obtained from the 80 CP K. oxytoca isolates, and four well-defined clusters were detected: cluster 1 consisted of 11 OXA-48-producing isolates, and the other three clusters included VIM-1-producing isolates (5, 3, and 3 isolates, respectively). In the 12 sequenced isolates, the average number of acquired resistance genes was significantly higher in VIM-1-producing isolates (10.8) than in OXA-48-producing isolates (2.3). All 12 isolates had chromosomally encoded genes of the blaOXY-2 genotype, and by multilocus sequence typing, most belonged to sequence type 2 (ST2). Carbapenemase genes were carried by IncL, IncHI2, IncFII, IncN, IncC, and IncP6 plasmid types. The emergence of CP K. oxytoca was principally due to the spread of VIM-1- and OXA-48-producing isolates in which VIM-1- and OXA-48 were carried by IncL, IncHI2, IncFII, and IncN plasmids. ST2 and the genotype blaOXY-2 predominated among the 12 sequenced isolates.

Project description:Klebsiella oxytoca is an opportunistic pathogen implicated in various clinical diseases in animals and humans. Studies suggest that in humans K. oxytoca exerts its pathogenicity in part through a cytotoxin. However, cytotoxin production in animal isolates of K. oxytoca and its pathogenic properties have not been characterized. Furthermore, neither the identity of the toxin nor a complete repertoire of genes involved in K. oxytoca pathogenesis have been fully elucidated. Here, we showed that several animal isolates of K. oxytoca, including the clinical isolates, produced secreted products in bacterial culture supernatant that display cytotoxicity on HEp-2 and HeLa cells, indicating the ability to produce cytotoxin. Cytotoxin production appears to be regulated by the environment, and soy based product was found to have a strong toxin induction property. The toxin was identified, by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, as low molecular weight heat labile benzodiazepine, tilivalline, previously shown to cause cytotoxicity in several cell lines, including mouse L1210 leukemic cells. Genome sequencing and analyses of a cytotoxin positive K. oxytoca strain isolated from an abscess of a mouse, identified genes previously shown to promote pathogenesis in other enteric bacterial pathogens including ecotin, several genes encoding for type IV and type VI secretion systems, and proteins that show sequence similarity to known bacterial toxins including cholera toxin. To our knowledge, these results demonstrate for the first time, that animal isolates of K. oxytoca, produces a cytotoxin, and that cytotoxin production is under strict environmental regulation. We also confirmed tilivalline as the cytotoxin present in animal K. oxytoca strains. These findings, along with the discovery of a repertoire of genes with virulence potential, provide important insights into the pathogenesis of K. oxytoca. As a novel diagnostic tool, tilivalline may serve as a biomarker for K oxytoca-induced cytotoxicity in humans and animals through detection in various samples from food to diseased samples using LC-MS/MS. Induction of K. oxytoca cytotoxin by consumption of soy may be in part involved in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal disease.
