Project description:Burkholderia multivorans comprises opportunistic bacteria infecting hosts such as cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Bcc long-term infection of CF patient airways has been associated with emergence of phenotypic variation including the mucoid-to-nonmucoid colony morphotype. Here we studied three Burkholderia multivorans clonal isolates (mucoid D2095 (BM11L), and nonmucoid D2214G and D2214P) and a laboratory nonmucoid variant (BM11L-nmv1) obtained under prolonged stationary phase. The aim is to identify possible traits associated to the different morphotypes and find possible mechanisms for this morphotypic variation.
Project description:Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) comprises opportunistic bacteria infecting hosts such as cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Bcc long-term infection of CF patient airways has been associated with emergence of phenotypic variation. Here we studied two Burkholderia multivorans clonal isolates (D2095 and D2214) displaying different morphotypes from a chronically infected CF patient in order to evaluate traits development during lung infection. For expression profiling, overnight cultures of the mucoid D2095 and the nonmucoid D2214 isolates grown in SM medium were diluted to an initial OD640 nm of 0.1 into the same medium. Triplicate samples were cultured at 37ºC with 250 r.p.m. agitation for 17 h and RNA extracted from the two bacterial isolates.

Here we studied two Burkholderia multivorans clonal isolates (D2095 and D2214) displaying different morphotypes from a chronically infected CF patient in order to evaluate traits development during lung infection. Since the custom array described in platform GPL13356 was based on Burkholderia multivorans ATCC 17616 genome, here we performed a DNA-DNA hybridization to determine which probes of the array hybridize with our test genomes Total DNA was extracted from overnight cultures of the mucoid D2095 and the nonmucoid D2214 isolates grown in LB medium.
