Project description:Persister cells are genetically identical variants in a bacterial population that have phenotypically modified their physiology to survive environmental stress. . To better define general persistence mechanisms that can be targeted to develop anti-persistence therapeutics, we performed transcriptomics analyses of Burkholderia thailandensis enriched for persisters using three methods: flow sorting by low proton motive force, meropenem treatment, and culture aging. Although the three persister populations generally expressed divergent gene expression profiles that underscores the multi-mechanistic nature of persistence, there were several common gene pathways expressed in two or more persister populations, including polyketide and non-ribosomal peptide synthesis, Clp proteases, mobile elements, enzymes involved in the lipid metabolism, and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter systems. In particular, identification of genes that encode for polyketide synthases (PKS) and fatty acid catabolism indicate that generation of secondary metabolites, natural products, and complex lipids are needed for the maintenance of the persistence state. Persisters are markedly reduced in transposon mutants of the PKS gene BTH_I2366. Furthermore, treatment of multiple bacterial pathogens with the fatty acid synthesis inhibitor, CP-640186, potentiated antibiotic efficacy against the persisters. All together, our results suggest that bacterial persisters may exhibit an outward dormant physiology, but maintain active metabolic processes that are required to maintain persistence.

Project description:Previously, we investigated the effect of fungal VOCs on the behavior of phylogenetically different soil bacteria (Schmidt et al 2015). In these experiments we showed that VOCs emitted by several fungi can lead to phenotypical responses in bacteria, for example, by inducing a change in motility (Schmidt et al 2015). We observed that the plant pathogenic fungus Fusarium culmorum produced a unique cluster of VOCs consisting primarily of terpenes. When exposed to the VOCs emitted by this fungus, the rhizobacterium Serratia plymuthica PRI-2C responded with an induction of motility. It is plausible that in soil, microorganisms sense changes in their environments via shifts in VOCs blend and adapt their behavior accordingly (Garbeva et al 2014). Although several studies indicated that VOCs can be used as signaling molecules in microbial inter-species interactions, the following questions remain unanswered as how are VOCs perceived as signals by the microorganisms and which regulatory pathways and genes are involved in the response? To answer these questions, the rhizosphere isolate S. plymuthica PRI-2C was grown alone or exposed to VOCs emitted by F. culmorum. The bacterial transcriptome and proteome were analyzed under each situation to identify the molecular basis of the bacterial response to fungal VOCs.

Project description:Unknown are the mechanisms of tolerance and persistence associated to several compounds in A.baumannii clinical isolates. Using transcriptomical and microbiological studies, we found a link between bacterial tolerance mechanisms to clorhexidine as well as the development of persistence in presence of imipenem in an A.baumannii strain belonging to ST-2 clinical clone (carbapenem-resistant with OXA-24 ß-lactamase and AbkAB TA system by plasmid). Interestingly, in A.baumannii ATCC17978 strain (carbapenem-susceptible isolate which carries AbkAB TA system by plasmid) showed persistence in presence of imipenem.

Project description:Post-transcriptional modifications are important for transfer RNAs (tRNAs) to be efficient and accurate in translation on the ribosome. The m1G37 modification on a subset of tRNAs in bacteria are generated by a conserved methyltransferase TrmD and is essential for bacterial growth. Previous studies showed that m1G37 has an important role in preventing translational frameshifting and also that this modification is coupled with aminoacylation of tRNAs for proline. Here we performed suppressor screening to isolate a mutant E. coli cell that lacks TrmD but is viable, and the whole-genome sequencing revealed several mutations on prolyl-tRNA synthetase (ProRS) gene conferring cell viability in the absence of TrmD. Biochemical assays confirmed uncoupling of m1G37 modification and aminoacylation, and cell-based assays uncovered the critical role of m1G37 in supporting Wobble decoding.

Project description:Persister cells are a sub-population of all bacterial cultures which exhibit a non-inheritable, multi-drug tolerance when subjected to lethal antibiotic challenge. These persisters arise as a result of metabolic dormancy, and can resume growth subsequent to antibiotic challenge, leading to recalcitrance of bacterial infections. Overproduction of DosP, an oxygen sensing protein with phosphodiesterase activity, increases bacterial persistence. Here we performed a microarray to determine the expression profile induced by DosP as a means to elucidate mechanisms of persister cell formation. dosP was overexpressed in Escherichia coli K-12 BW25113 and compared to the empty vector.

Project description:The identification of processes activated by specific microbes during microbiota colonization of plant roots has been hampered by technical constraints in metatranscriptomics. These include lack of reference genomes, high representation of host or microbial rRNA sequences in datasets, or difficulty to experimentally validate gene functions. Here, we recolonized germ-free Arabidopsis thaliana with a synthetic, yet representative root microbiota comprising 106 genome-sequenced bacterial and fungal isolates. We used multi-kingdom rRNA depletion, deep RNA-sequencing and read mapping against reference microbial genomes to analyse the in-planta metatranscriptome of abundant colonizers. We identified over 3,000 microbial genes that were differentially regulated at the soil-root interface. Translation and energy production processes were consistently activated in planta, and their induction correlated with bacterial strains’ abundance in roots. Finally, we used targeted mutagenesis to show that several genes consistently induced by multiple bacteria are required for root colonization in one of the abundant bacterial strains (a genetically tractable Rhodanobacter). Our results indicate that microbiota members activate strain-specific processes but also common gene sets to colonize plant roots.
