Project description:Rapidly growing antibiotic resistance among gastrointestinal pathogens, and the ability of antibiotics to induce the virulence of these pathogens makes it increasingly difficult to rely on antibiotics to treat gastrointestinal infections. The probiotic E. coli strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) is the active component of the pharmaceutical preparation Mutaflor® and has been successfully used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. Gut bacteriophages are dominant players in maintaining the microbial homeostasis in the gut, however, their interaction with incoming probiotic bacteria remains to be at conception. The presence of bacteriophages in the gut makes it inevitable for any probiotic bacteria to be phage resistant, in order to survive and successfully colonize the gut. This study addresses the phage resistance of EcN, specifically against lytic T4 phage infection. From various experiments we could show that i) EcN is resistant towards T4 phage infection, ii) EcN’s K5 polysaccharide capsule plays a crucial role in T4 phage resistance and iii) EcN’s lipopolysaccharide (LPS) inactivates T4 phages and notably, treatment with the antibiotic polymyxin B which neutralizes the LPS destroyed the phage inactivation ability of isolated LPS from EcN. Our results further indicate that N-acetylglucosamine at the distal end of O6 antigen in EcN’s LPS could be the interacting partner with T4 phages. From our findings, we have reported for the first time, the role of EcN’s K5 capsule and LPS in its defense against T4 phages. In addition, by inactivating the T4 phages, EcN also protects E. coli K-12 strains from phage infection in tri-culture experiments. The combination of the identified properties is not found in other tested commensal E. coli strains. Furthermore, our research highlights phage resistance as an additional safety feature of EcN, a clinically successful probiotic E. coli strain.

Project description:Bacteriophages are highly abundant viruses of bacteria. The major role of phages in shaping bacterial communities and their emerging medical potential as antibacterial agents has trig-gered a rebirth of phage research. To understand the molecular mechanisms by which phages hijack their host, omics technologies can provide novel insights into the organization of tran-scriptional and translational events occurring during the infection process. In this study, we ap-ply transcriptomics and proteomics to characterize the temporal patterns of transcription and protein synthesis during T4 phage infection of E. coli. We investigated the stability of E. coli-originated transcripts and proteins in the course of infection, identifying degradation of E. coli transcripts and preservation of the host proteome. Moreover, the correlation of the phage transcriptome and proteome reveals specific T4 phage mRNAs and proteins that are temporally decoupled, suggesting post-transcriptional and translational regulation mechanisms. This study provides the first comprehensive insights into the molecular takeover of E. coli by bacteriophage T4. This data set represents a valuable resource for future studies seeking to study molecular and regulatory events during infection. We created a user-friendly online tool, POTATO4, available to the scientific community to access gene expression patterns for E. coli and T4 genes.

Project description:Cyanobacteria are highly abundant in the oceans and are constantly exposed to lytic viruses. The T4-like cyanomyoviruses are abundant in the marine environment and have broad host ranges relative to other cyanophages. It is currently unknown whether broad-host-range phages specifically tailor their infection program for each host, or employ the same program irrespective of the host infected. Also unknown is how different hosts respond to infection by the same phage. Here we used microarray and RNA-seq analyses to investigate the interaction between the Syn9 T4-like cyanophage and three phylogenetically, ecologically and genomically distinct marine Synechococcus strains: WH8102, WH7803 and WH8109. Strikingly, Syn9 led a nearly identical infection and transcriptional program in all three hosts. Different to previous assumptions for T4-like cyanophages, three temporally regulated gene expression classes were observed. Furthermore, a novel regulatory element controlled early gene transcription, and host-like promoters drove middle gene transcription, different to the regulatory paradigm for T4. Similar results were found for the P-TIM40 phage during infection of Prochlorococcus NATL2A. Moreover, genomic and metagenomic analyses indicate that these regulatory elements are abundant and conserved among T4-like cyanophages. In contrast to the near-identical transcriptional program employed by Syn9, host responses to infection involved host-specific genes primarily located in hypervariable genomic islands, substantiating islands as a major axis of phage-cyanobacteria interactions. Our findings suggest that the ability of broad host-range phages to infect multiple hosts is more likely dependent on the effectiveness of host defense strategies than on differential tailoring of the infection process by the phage.

Project description:Purpose: We investigated the effect of the T4 MotB protein on E. coli gene expression Method: E. coli BL21 (DE3) containing either pNW129 or pNW129-MotB were grown to early log phase (OD600 ~ 0.3) then induced with 0.2% arabinose for 20 minutes. T4 phage added to the culture at MOI10. Cells were then harvested at 0, 5, and 10 min time points and total RNA was isolated. The cDNA library was prepared using a modified RNATagSeq workflow as previously described (Shishkin, A.A. et al. 2015 Nat Methods). Optimum fragmentation of the total RNA samples in this library was determined to be 3 min at 94C in FastAP buffer (Thermo Fischer Scientific). The cDNA Library was run on a Bioanalyzer using the Agilent High Sensitivity DNA Kit to evaluate the quality of the library. The concentration of the cDNA library was determined by qPCR using the KAPA Library Quantification Kit (Kapa Biosystems, Wilmington, MA, USA) and CFX96 Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). Sequencing was performed by the NIDDK Genomics Core facility using a MiSeq system with the single-end 50 bp Sequencing Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). RNA-seq data was processed as previously described using E. coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (NC_000913.3) as the reference genome. Differential expression between conditions was represented as a fold change, and genes with both a fold change ≥2 or ≤ 0.5 and adjusted p value ≤ 0.05 were considered significant. Results: RNA-seq data revealed that the expression of 542 E. coli genes were significantly changed after motB expression. The expression of 704 and 706 E. coli genes were changed T4 5 min and 10 min post infection after MotB expression, respectively. After 5 min T4 infection, 34 T4 genes were significantly changed. Conclusion: T4 MotB modifies the pool of host tRNAs, creating a better infection for T4

Project description:We used whole bodies of four different adult fire ant morphs (alate queens, workers, haploid males, and diploid males) from a single polygyne colony to generate single-base resolution DNA methylation maps. DNA was extracted from whole bodies of individual males, individual queens, and pooled workers. Bisulfite conversion and sequencing was performed by Beijing Genomics Institute (Shenzhen, China). Unmethylated enterobacteria phage lambda DNA (GenBank accession: J02459.1) was added to each genomic DNA sample as a control for bisulfite conversion efficiency.
