Project description:Previous studies have documented the diversity of genetic background of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains associated with healthcare (HA-MRSA), community (CA-MRSA) and livestock (LA-MRSA). The accessory and core-variable genome content of those strains remain largely unknown. To compare the composition of accessory and core-variable genome of Belgian MRSA strains according to host, population setting and genetic background, representative strains of HA- (n=21), CA- (n = 13) and ST398 LA-MRSA (n = 18) were characterized by a DNA-microarray (StaphVar Array) composed of oligonucleotide probes targeting ~400 resistance, adhesion and virulence associated genes.ST398 strains displayed very homogenous hybridization profiles (>94% gene content homology) irrespective of their host origin. This “ST398-specific” genomic profile was not distantly demarked from those of certain human-associated lineages but lacked several virulence- and colonization-associated genes harbored by strains of human origin, such as genes encoding proteases, haemolysins or adhesins. No enterotoxin gene was found among ST398 strains. In conclusion, our findings are consistent with a non-human origin of this ST398 lineage but suggest that it might have the potential to adapt further to the human host.

Project description:We present a draft genome assembly that includes 200 Gb of Illumina reads, 4 Gb of Moleculo synthetic long-reads and 108 Gb of Chicago libraries, with a final size matching the estimated genome size of 2.7 Gb, and a scaffold N50 of 4.8 Mb. We also present an alternative assembly including 27 Gb raw reads generated using the Pacific Biosciences platform. In addition, we sequenced the proteome of the same individual and RNA from three different tissue types from three other species of squid species (Onychoteuthis banksii, Dosidicus gigas, and Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) to assist genome annotation. We annotated 33,406 protein coding genes supported by evidence and the genome completeness estimated by BUSCO reached 92%. Repetitive regions cover 49.17% of the genome.

Project description:The success of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) as pathogens is due to a combination of antibiotic resistance with high virulence. However, evolution of the exceptional virulence potential of CA-MRSA is not understood. Our previous study indicated that differential gene expression contributes substantially to this process. Thus, we here investigated the role of the pivotal virulence gene regulatory system agr in the most prevalent CA-MRSA strain USA300. Using a mouse subcutaneous infection model, we show that agr is essential for the development of CA-MRSA skin infections, the most frequent manifestation of disease caused by CA-MRSA. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of gene expression revealed significant differences in agr-dependent virulence gene regulation between CA-MRSA, HA-MRSA, and laboratory strains. Our findings demonstrate that agr functionality is critical for CA-MRSA disease and indicate that an adaptation of the agr regulon to optimize expression of a broad set of virulence determinants may have contributed to the evolution of exceptionally pronounced virulence of CA-MRSA strains.

Project description:Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is an emerging threat to human health throughout the world. Rodent MRSA pneumonia models mainly focus on the early innate immune responses to MRSA infection. However, the molecular pattern and mechanisms of recovery from MRSA lung infection are largely unknown. In this study, a nonlethal mouse MRSA pneumonia model was employed to investigate events during lung recovery from MRSA infection. We compared lung bacterial clearance, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) characterization, lung histology, and gene expression profiling between Day 1 and Day 3 post-MRSA infection. Compared to Day 1 post-infection, bacterial colony counts and both BALF total cell number and protein concentration significantly decreased at Day 3 post-infection. Lung cDNA microarray analysis identified 47 significantly up-regulated and 35 down-regulated genes (p<0.01, 1.5-fold change [up and down]). Changes in eight genes were confirmed by real-time PCR. The pattern of gene expression suggests lung recovery is characterized by enhanced cell division, vascularization, and wound healing and by adjustment in host adaptive immune responses. Collectively, this data helps elucidate the molecular mechanisms of lung recovery after MRSA infection. RNA expression analysis was performed using the Illumina MouseRef-8 v2.0 BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, CA), which provides coverage of approximately 25,700 genes and expressed sequence tags. Four independent mouse lung tissue samples at Day 1 and Day 3 post-MRSA infection were used in this study.

Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major threat to human health. Rather than depend on creating new antibiotics (to which bacteria will eventually become resistant), we are employing antibiotic adjuvants that potentiate existing antibiotics. Based on our previous work, loratadine, the FDA-approvide antihistamine, effectively potentiates cell-wall active antibiotics in multiple strains of MRSA. Furthermore, loratadine and oxacillin helped disrupt preformed biofilms and stop them from initially forming in vitro. To gain biological insight into how this potentiation and biofilm inhibition occurs, we used RNA-seq on treated MRSA 43300 cultures to examine antibiotic adjuvant affects transcritome-wide.

Project description:Influenza-induced respiratory failure is substantially worsened by secondary bacterial infections such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The bidirectional interaction between the influenza-injured lung microenvironment and MRSA is poorly understood. By conditioning MRSA ex vivo in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid collected from mice at various timepoints of influenza infection, we found that influenza-injured lung microenvironment induces MRSA to increase cytotoxin expression while decreasing metabolic pathways. This overall increase in MRSA virulence was dependent upon SaeRS, a bacterial two-component system. Once expressed by MRSA, these influenza-induced toxins (such as Hla and LukAB) interact with host heparan sulfate (HS) fragments shed into the airspace. Highly-sulfated HS fragments augmented Hla- and LukAB-toxicity in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that post-influenza MRSA pneumonia is shaped by bidirectional host-pathogen interactions: host injury triggers changes in bacterial expression of toxins, the activity of which are then shaped by host-derived HS fragments.
