Project description:To explore the effect of light perception on Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 at a global level, we carried out microarray hybridization experiments. We hybridize custom-designed microarrays (Agilent Technologies) with probes isolated from PsPto after a 10 min treatment with either 20 μE/m2s blue light, 20 μE/m2s red light, 70 μE/m2s white light, or cells kept in the darkness.
Project description:Comparative transcriptomics between prf3, Prf-SBP-FLAG complemented lines as controls and tft3 2-2 line (CRISPR/Cas9 tomato mutant line in Rio Grande-prf3 Prf-SBP-FLAG complemented background), treated with either buffer (as control) or P. syringae DC3000 6 hours post infiltration.
Project description:Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pst) is a virulent pathogen, which causes disease on tomato and Arabidopsis. The type III secretion system (TTSS) plays a key role in pathogenesis by translocating virulence effectors from the bacteria into the plant host cell, while the phytotoxin coronatine (COR) contributes to virulence and disease symptom development. Recent studies suggest that both the TTSS and and COR are involved in the suppression of host basal defenses. However, little is known about the interplay between the host gene expression associated with basal defenses and the virulence activities of the TTSS and COR during infection. The global effects of the TTSS and COR on host gene expression associated with other host cellular processes during bacterial infection are also not well characterized. In this study, we used the Affymetrix full genome chip to determine the Arabidopsis transcriptome associated with basal defense to Pst DC3000 hrp mutants and the human pathogenic bacterium Escherichia coli O157:H7. We then used Pst DC3000 virulence mutants to characterize Arabidopsis transcriptional responses to the action of hrp-regulated virulence factors (e.g., TTSS and COR) during bacterial infection. Additionally, we used bacterial fliC mutants to assess the role of the PAMP flagellin in induction of basal defense-associated transcriptional responses. In total, our global gene expression analysis identified more than 5000 Arabidopsis genes that are reproducibly regulated more than 2-fold in three independent biological replicates of at least one type of comparison. Regulation of these genes provides a molecular signature for Arabidopsis basal defense to plant and human pathogenic bacteria, and illustrates both common and distinct global virulence effects of the TTSS, COR, and possibly other hrp-regulated virulence factors during Pst DC3000 infection.

Project description:The independent data acquisition (DIA) approach, which is a proteomic quantitative analysis method, was applied to quantitatively trace coronatine production and proteomic changes in Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 under different FeCl3 culture conditions.Coronatine (COR) is a new type of plant growth regulator that is produced by Pseudomonas syringae pathovars and plays an important role in modulating plant growth, development, and tolerance to multiple stresses.
Project description:Vesiculation is a process employed by Gram-negative bacteria to release extracellular vesicles (EVs) into the environment. Bacterial EVs contain molecular cargo from the donor bacterium and play important roles in bacterial survival and growth. Here, we describe EV production in plant-pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pto DC3000), the causal agent of bacterial speck disease. Cultured Pto DC3000 exhibited EV structures both on the cell surface and in the vicinity of bacterial cells, observed as outer membrane vesicle (OMV) release. We used in-solution trypsin digestion coupled to mass spectrometry to identify 369 proteins enriched in EVs recovered from cultured Pto DC3000. The predicted localization profile of EV proteins supports the production of EVs also in the form of outer-inner-membrane vesicles (OIMVs). EV production varied slightly between bacterial lifestyles and also occurred in planta. The potential contribution of EVs to Pto DC3000 plant infection was assessed using plant treatments and bioinformatic analysis of the EV-enriched proteins. While these results identify immunogenic activities of the EVs, they also point at roles for EVs in bacterial defences and nutrient acquisition by Pto DC3000.
