Project description:Here, we described comparative transcriptomic analysis of B. subtilis strain stably expressing rho with the wild type and rho-deficient strains. We show that maintaining a stable Rho level caused global changes of B. subtilis transcriptome including both strong down-regulation of the antisense transcription and considerable modifications of the sense transcription. The observed changes were more noticeable upon entering the stationary phase and comprised majority of genes controlled by global transcription regulators AbrB and CodY, competence transcription factor ComK, and stringent response. Constitutively expressed rho reprograms stationary phase-specific cellular physiology, affects adaptation of cells to nutrient limitations by attenuating the stringent response and alters cell-fate decision-making to such an extent that it blocks competence development and sporulation.

Project description:In this work we conducted Term-seq on Wild Type B. subtilis, and strains compromosing all logical mutations in all combinations of the genes that encode for NusA, NusG, and Rho, where we developed the first transcription termination atlas. We used this atlas to find that Rho can stimulate intrinsic termination in B. subtilis and we recapitulated this finding in vitro to dissect the mechanism.

Project description:This analysis is part of the study GSE27219, The condition-dependent transcriptome of Bacillus subtilis 168. In this study, 120 transcription units where identified for which transcription did not terminate at any specific site, leading to mRNA extension over long distances with slowly decreasing signal intensity. In most cases, lack of termination and read-through generated antisense transcripts. These findings together with the lack of intrinsic terminators suggested that transcription termination of the 120 transcription units could be mediated by the transcription termination factor Rho. In order to investigate the impact of Rho-mediated termination, tiling array hybridizations using RNA samples of a B. subtilis rho-null mutant and its parental strain were performed. B. subtilis 1012 wild-type and rho-mutant cells were grown in LB medium. Samples for tiling array analysis were taken during exponential growth phase. Hybridizations were performed in triplicate using RNA isolated from independent cultures.

Project description:Transcription termination factor Rho is known for its ubiquitous role in suppression of pervasive, mostly antisense, transcription. In the model Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis, de-repression of pervasive transcription by inactivation of rho revealed the role of Rho in the regulation of post-exponential differentiation programs. To identify other aspects of the regulatory role of Rho during adaptation to starvation, we have constructed a B. subtilis strain (Rho+) that expresses rho at a relatively stable high level in order to compensate for its decrease in the wild-type cells entering stationary phase. The RNAseq analysis of Rho+, WT and Δrho strains (expression profiles can be visualized at http://genoscapist.migale.inrae.fr/seb_rho/) shows that Rho over-production enhances the termination efficiency of Rho-sensitive terminators, thus reducing transcriptional read-through and antisense transcription genome-wide. Moreover, the Rho+ strain exhibits global alterations of sense transcription with the most significant changes observed for the AbrB, CodY, and stringent response regulons, forming the pathways governing the transition to stationary phase. Subsequent physiological analyses demonstrated that maintaining rho expression at a stable elevated level modifies stationary phase-specific physiology of B. subtilis cells, weakens stringent response, and thereby negatively affects the cellular adaptation to nutrient limitations and other stresses, and blocks the development of genetic competence and sporulation. These results highlight the Rho-specific termination of transcription as a novel element controlling stationary phase. The release of this control by decreasing Rho levels during the transition to stationary phase appears crucial for the functionality of complex gene networks ensuring B. subtilis survival in stationary phase.

Project description:The transcription termination factor Rho is a global regulator of RNA polymerase (RNAP). Although individual Rho-dependent terminators have been studied extensively, less is known about the sites of RNAP regulation by Rho on a genome-wide scale. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and microarrays (ChIP-chip), we examined changes in the distribution of Escherichia coli RNAP in response to the Rho-specific inhibitor bicyclomycin (BCM). We found ~200 Rho-terminated loci that were divided evenly into two classes: intergenic (at the ends of genes) and intragenic (within genes). The intergenic class contained noncoding RNAs such as small RNAs (sRNAs) and transfer RNAs (tRNAs), establishing a previously unappreciated role of Rho in termination of stable RNA synthesis. The intragenic class of terminators included a novel set of short antisense transcripts, as judged by a shift in the distribution of RNAP in BCM-treated cells that was opposite to the direction of the corresponding gene. These Rho-terminated antisense transcripts point to a novel role of noncoding transcription in E. coli gene regulation that may resemble the ubiquitous noncoding transcription recently found to play myriad roles in eukaryotic gene regulation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments were performed using antibodies against RNA polymerase (Beta or Beta' subunit) in cells treated with 20ug/ml bicyclomycin or untreated cells. Differentially labeled ChIP DNA and genomic DNA were competitively hybridized to an E. coli K-12 MG1655 tiling array with overlapping probes at ~12bp spacing across the entire genome. The series contains 4 datasets.

Project description:With these experiments we investigate the impact of the deletion of the gene encoding transcription termination Rho on the transcriptomes of two different Bacillus subtilis strains, BsB1 and NCIB3610. The results confirm massive increase of antisense transcription initially observed with tiling arrays in B. subtilis strain 1012 (Nicolas et al. 2012; PMID:22383849; GSE27303).
