Project description:Purpose: To obtain an overview of the metabolic changes associated to the absence of KpsM in Synechocystis, in particular on carbon-related metabolic pathways Methods: The trancriptomes of Synechocystis wild type and kpsM mutant were analyzed by RNA sequencing, using three biological replicates. Cultures were grown until reaching an OD730nm of 1.5. Sequencing libraries were generated using NEBNext® Ultra TM RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina®. PCR products were purified (AMPure XP system) and library quality was assessed on the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 system. The clustering of the index-coded samples was performed on a cBot Cluster Generation System using PE Cluster Kit cBot-HS (Illumina). Raw data (raw reads) of FASTQ format were firstly processed through in-house scripts. In this step, clean data (clean reads) were obtained by removing reads containing adapter and poly-N sequences and reads with low quality from raw data. Paired-end clean reads were mapped to the reference genome using HISAT2 software.HTSeq was used to count the read numbers mapped of each gene, including known and novel genes. And then RPKM of each gene was calculated based on the length of the gene and reads count mapped to this gene. RPKM, Reads Per Kilobase of exon model per Million mapped reads, considers the effect of sequencing depth and gene length for the reads count at the same time, and is currently the most commonly used method for estimating gene expression levels. Differential expression analysis between two conditions/groups (three biological replicates per condition) was performed using DESeq2 R package. DESeq2 provides statistical routines for determining differential expression in digital gene expression data using a model based on the negative binomial distribution. The resulting P values were adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochberg’s approach for controlling the False Discovery Rate (FDR). Genes with an adjusted P value < 0.05 found by DESeq2 were assigned as differentially expressed. Results: Approximately 700 genes (out of the 3636 identified and 215 quantified, representing a coverage of 85,12%) were significantly differentially expressed (P 216 value < 0.05) in the kpsM mutant compared to the wild type. Of those, 406 were down217 regulated, while 297 were up-regulated. Conclusions: Overall, our transcriptomic data indicates alterations in the mechanisms of energy production and conversion in the kpsM mutant compared to the wild type. The approach resulted in the identification of altered levels of transcripts belonging to a variety of functional categories and highlighting a number of key metabolic processes affected by the disruption of kpsM, namely photosynthesis, oxidative phosphorylation and carbon metabolism.

Project description:Honeybee health is a major ecological, agricultural and societal concern due to the critical role of these insects for plant reproduction and the massive losses of colonies observed within the last decade. The search for abiotic (e.g. pesticides) and biotic (e.g. pathogens) stressors is essential for understanding bee declines and design protection plans. Flagellated Trypanosomatid protozoan parasites and particularly Lotmaria passim, are widely distributed in honeybee colonies and have been associated with colony losses. However, little is known about their life cycles, routes for transmission and the strategies for survival inside and outside their hosts. Here we describe the proteome of L. passim Extracellular polymeric substances linked to secretion of Extracellular vesicles using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The EPS-EVs composition will provide clues on how these pathogens survive and spread in apiaries worldwide.

Project description:Many cyanobacteria produce extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), composed mainly of heteropolysaccharides, that play a variety of physiological roles, being crucial for cell protection, motility, and biofilm formation. However, due to their complexity, the EPS biosynthetic pathways as well as their assembly and export mechanisms are still far from being fully understood. Here, we show that the absence of a putative EPS-related protein, KpsM (Slr0977), has a pleiotropic effect on Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 physiology, with a strong impact on the export of EPS and carbon fluxes. The kpsM mutant exhibits a significant reduction of released polysaccharides and a smaller decrease of capsular polysaccharides, but it accumulates more polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) than the wild type. In addition, this strain shows a light/cell density-dependent clumping phenotype and exhibits an altered protein secretion capacity. Furthermore, the most important structural component of pili, the protein PilA, was found to have a modified glycosylation pattern in the mutant compared to the wild type. Proteomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed significant changes in the mechanisms of energy production and conversion, namely, photosynthesis, oxidative phosphorylation, and carbon metabolism, in response to the inactivation of slr0977 Overall, this work shows for the first time that cells with impaired EPS secretion undergo transcriptomic and proteomic adjustments, highlighting the importance of EPS as a major carbon sink in cyanobacteria. The accumulation of PHB in cells of the mutant, without affecting significantly its fitness/growth rate, points to its possible use as a chassis for the production of compounds of interest.IMPORTANCE Most cyanobacteria produce extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that fulfill different biological roles depending on the strain/environmental conditions. The interest in the cyanobacterial EPS synthesis/export pathways has been increasing, not only to optimize EPS production but also to efficiently redirect carbon flux toward the production of other compounds, allowing the implementation of industrial systems based on cyanobacterial cell factories. Here, we show that a Synechocystis kpsM (slr0977) mutant secretes less EPS than the wild type, accumulating more carbon intracellularly, as polyhydroxybutyrate. Further characterization showed a light/cell density-dependent clumping phenotype, altered protein secretion, and modified glycosylation of PilA. The proteome and transcriptome of the mutant revealed significant changes, namely, in photosynthesis and carbon metabolism. Altogether, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the impact of kpsM disruption on Synechocystis physiology, highlighting the importance of EPS as a carbon sink and showing how cells adapt when their secretion is impaired, and the redirection of the carbon fluxes.

Project description:In cyanobacteria DNA supercoiling varies over the diurnal light/dark cycle and is integrated with temporal programs of transcription and replication. We manipulated DNA supercoiling in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 by CRISPRi-based knockdown of gyrase subunits gyrA, gyrB and overexpression of topoisomerase I (TopoI) topA and analyzed the transcriptional response to gyrase knock-downs (endpoint in triplicate) and topoisomerase I overexpression (endpoint in triplicate, and 19 time points time series before and after induction) in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 via RNA-seq of coding RNA. In detail, Illumina Ribo-Zero Plus rRNA Depletion Kit was used to remove the ribosomal RNA molecules from the isolated total RNA. Removal of rRNA was evaluated with the RNA Pico 6000 kit on the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. RNA was free of detectable rRNA. Preparation of cDNA libraries was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions for the TruSeq stranded mRNA kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, United States). Subsequently, each cDNA library was sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 system (2 x 75 nt PE high output v2.5).
