Project description:Although gut microbiomes are generally symbiotic or commensal, some of microbiomes become pathogenic under certain circumstances, which is one of key processes of pathogenesis. However, the factors involved in these complex gut-microbe interactions are largely unknown. Here we show that bacterial nucleoside catabolism using gut luminal uridine is required to boost inter-bacterial communications and gut pathogenesis in Drosophila. We found that uridine-derived uracil is required for DUOX-dependent ROS generation on the host side, whereas uridine-derived ribose induces quorum sensing and virulence gene expression on the bacterial side. Importantly, genetic ablation of bacterial nucleoside catabolism is sufficient to block the commensal-to-pathogen transition in vivo. Furthermore, we found that major commensal bacteria lack functional nucleoside catabolism, which is required to achieve gut-microbe symbiosis. The discovery of a novel role of bacterial nucleoside catabolism will greatly help to better understand the molecular mechanism of the commensal-to-pathogen transition in different contexts of host-microbe interactions.

Project description:The bacterial quorum sensing (QS) phenomenon has been well studied since its discovery and has traditionally been considered to include signaling pathways recognized exclusively within either Gram-positive (Gm+) or Gram-negative (Gm-) bacteria. The Gm+ bacteria are known to utilize quorum sensing pathways mediated by various small autoinducing peptides (AIP), while the Gm- bacteria use small molecules known collectively as acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL). Distinct structural differences between the types of signaling molecules have historically implied a lack of cross-talk among Gm+ and Gm- QS systems. Recent investigations, however, have demonstrated the ability for AIPs and AHLs to be produced by noncanonical organisms, implying QS systems may be more universally recognized than previously hypothesized. With that in mind, our interests were piqued by the organisms Lactobacillus plantarum, a Gm+ commensal probiotic known to participate in AIP-mediated QS, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a characterized Gm- pathogen whose virulence is controlled by AHL-mediated QS. Both health-related organisms are known to inhabit the human gut in various instances, both are characterized to elicit distinct effects on host immunity, and some studies hint at the putative ability of L. plantarum to degrade AHLs produced by P. aeruginosa. We therefore wanted to determine if L. plantarum cultures would respond to the addition of N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3OC12) from P. aeruginosa by analyzing changes on both the transcriptome and proteome over time. Based on the observed upregulation of various two-component systems, response regulators, and native quorum sensing related genes, the resulting data provide evidence of an AHL recognition and response by L. plantarum.

Project description:The quorum regulatory cascade is poorly characterized in Vibrio parahaemolyticus, in part because swarming and pathogenicity - the hallmark traits of the organism - are repressed by this scheme of gene control. As a consequence, many isolates appear silenced for quorum sensing via phase variation. In these studies, we examine a swarm proficient, virulent strain and find an altered function allele of the central quorum regulator luxO. We use this allele, which produces a constitutively active LuxO, to probe the upstream elements of the pathway and demonstrate their functionality for the first time. We find that the state of luxO affects expression of three small regulatory RNAS (Qrrs) and the activity of a translational fusion in opaR, the central output regulator. We use microarray profiling to determine the OpaR regulon, which was found to encompass ~5.2% of the genome. The quorum sensing proficient strain seems adapted for a sessile, community lifestyle; it is competent to uptake DNA, produces much capsular polysaccharide, has a high level of c-di-GMP, and strongly expresses one type six secretion system. Expressing the entire surface sensing regulon and numerous methyl accepting chemotaxis proteins, the quorum-disrupted cell type seems prepared for a mobile lifestyle. It is also cytotoxic to host cells in co-culture and expresses distinct type six as well as type three secretion systems. Thus, the scope and nature of the genes in the OpaR regulon provide many clues to the distinguishing traits of this Vibrio species as well as to the quite divergent survival strategies of the quorum ON/OFF phase variants

Project description:Paenibacillus polymyxa is an agriculturally important plant growth promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR). Many Paenibacillus species are known to be engaged in complex bacteria-bacteria and bacteria-host interactions, which in other bacteria were shown to necessitate quorum sensing communication, but to date no quorum sensing systems have been described in Paenibacillus. Here we show that the type strain P. polymyxa ATCC 842 encodes at least 16 peptide-based communication systems. Each of these systems comprises a pro-peptide that is secreted to the growth medium and further processed to generate a mature short peptide. Each peptide has a cognate intracellular receptor of the RRNPP family, and we show that external addition of P. polymyxa communication peptides to the medium leads to reprogramming of the transcriptional response. We found that these quorum sensing systems are conserved across hundreds of species belonging to the Paenibacillaceae family, with some species encoding more than 25 different peptide-receptor pairs, representing a record number of quorum sensing systems encoded in a single genome.

Project description:Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria use methane as their sole source of carbon and energy and serve as a major sink for the potent greenhouse gas methane in freshwater ecosystems. Despite this important environmental role, little is known about the molecular details of how these organisms interact in the environment. Many bacterial species use quorum sensing systems to regulate gene expression in a density-dependent manner. We have identified a quorum sensing system in the genome of Methylobacter tundripaludum, a dominant methane-oxidizer in methane enrichments of sediment from Lake Washington (Seattle, WA, USA). We determined that M. tundripaludum primarily produces N-3-hydroxydecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (3-OH-C10-HSL) and that production is governed by a positive feedback loop. We then further characterized this system by determining which genes are regulated by quorum sensing in this methane-oxidizer using RNA-seq, and discovered this system regulates the expression of a novel nonribosomal peptide synthetase biosynthetic gene cluster. These results identify and characterize a mode of cellular communication in an aerobic methane-oxidizing bacterium.

Project description:We worked with microarrys analysis in presence of 3-oxo-C12-HSL molecule to analyze the profile of the genes implicated in the Quorum Quenching network in A.baumannii clinical strains. Interestingly, only 13 genes were overexpressed under 3-oxo-C12-HSL molecule being the most level a gene which encodes an Alpha/beta hydrolase enzyme (5.01). The 46.15% of the genes overexpressed were implicated in the synthesis of the acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs).
