Project description:Quorum sensing (QS) is the cell density-dependent virulence factor regulator in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here, we elucidate PIT2, a phage-encoded inhibitor of the QS regulator LasR, derived from the lytic Pseudomonas phage LMA2. PIT2 inhibits the effectors PrpL and LasA of the type 2 secretion system of P. aeruginosa and attenuates bacterial virulence towards HeLa cells and in Galleria mellonella. Using RNAseq-based differential gene expression analysis, the effect of PIT2 on the LasR regulatory network was revealed. Moreover, the specific interaction between LasR and PIT2 was determined. These data expand our knowledge on phage-encoded modulators of the bacterial metabolism, as this examples an anti-virulence protein derived from a lytic phage. From an applied perspective, this phage protein reveals and exploits an interesting anti-virulence target in P. aeruginosa. As such, it lays the foundation for a new phage-inspired anti-virulence strategy to combat multidrug resistant pathogens and opens the door for SynBio applications.

Project description:Bacteriophages (hereafter “phages”) are ubiquitous predators of bacteria in the natural world, but interest is growing in their development into antibacterial therapy as complement or replacement for antibiotics. However, bacteria have evolved a huge variety of anti-phage defense systems allowing them to resist phage lysis to a greater or lesser extent, and in pathogenic bacteria these inevitably impact phage therapy outcomes. In addition to dedicated phage defense systems, some aspects of the general stress response also impact phage susceptibility, but the details of this are not well known. In order to elucidate these factors in the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, we used the laboratory-conditioned strain PAO1 as host for phage infection experiments as it is naturally poor in dedicated phage defense systems. Screening by transposon insertion sequencing indicated that the uncharacterized operon PA3040-PA3042 was potentially associated with resistance to lytic phages. However, we found that its primary role appeared to be in regulating biofilm formation. Its expression was highly growth-phase dependent and responsive to phage infection and cell envelope stress.

Project description:We have isolated and characterized several bacteriophages infecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa distantly related to Felix O1 virus and proposed they form a new subfamily named Felixounavirinae. The infectious cycle of bacteriophages belonging to this subfamily has not been studied yet in terms of gene expression. The present study reports the RNA-Seq analysis of bacteriophage PAK_P3 infecting PAK strain of P. aeruginosa. RNA profile of Host and Phage at 0min, 3.5min and 13 min after infection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAK strain with the Pseudomonas phage PAK P3. Three biological replicates for each time point.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen which causes acute and chronic infections that are difficult to treat. Comparative genomic analysis has showed a great genome diversity among P. aeruginosa clinical strains and revealed important regulatory traits during chronic adaptation. While current investigation of epigenetics of P. aeruginosa is still lacking, understanding the epigenetic regulation may provide biomarkers for diagnosis and reveal important regulatory mechanisms. The present study focused on characterization of DNA methyltransferases (MTases) in a chronically adapted P. aeruginosa clinical strain TBCF10839. Single-molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT-seq) was used to characterize the methylome of TBCF. RCCANNNNNNNTGAR and TRGANNNNNNTGC were identified as target motifs of DNA MTases, M.PaeTBCFI and M.PaeTBCFII, respectively.

Project description:Clinical case studies have reported that the combined use of specific lytic phage(s) and antibiotics reduces the severity of difficult-to-treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in many patients. In vitro methods that attempt to reproduce specific pathophysiological conditions can provide a reliable assessment of the antibacterial effects of phages. Here, we measured bacterial killing kinetics and individual phage replication in different growth phases, including biofilms, elucidating factors influencing the efficacy of two phages against the laboratory strain P. aeruginosa PAO1. While two-phage combination treatment effectively eliminated P. aeruginosa in routine broth and in infected human lung cell cultures, the emergence of phage-resistant variants occurred under both conditions. Phage combination displayed initial inhibition of biofilm dispersal, but sustained control was achieved only with a combination of phages and meropenem. In contrast, surface-attached biofilm exhibited tolerance to phage and/or meropenem, suggesting a spatiotemporal variation in antibacterial effect. Moreover, the phage with the shorter lysis time killed P. aeruginosa more rapidly, selecting a specific nucleotide polymorphism that likely conferred a competitive disadvantage and cross resistance to the second phage of the combination. These findings highlight biofilm developmental phase, inter-phage competition and phage resistance as factors limiting the in vitro efficacy of a phage combination. However, their precise impact on the outcome of phage therapy remains uncertain, necessitating validation through phage efficacy trials in order to establish clearer correlations between laboratory assessments and clinical results.

Project description:Two component systems (TCSs) control a large proportion of virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Yet, investigations on inhibitors of regulatory pathways of TCS remain scare, despite their potential in anti-virulence strategies. This work encompasses the working mechanism of PIT4, a protein derived from the lytic P. aeruginosa phage LSL4. This viral protein inhibits bacterial motility and in particular twitching motility, while reducing the virulence of P. aeruginosa towards HeLa cells. Via differential gene expression and a yeast two-hybrid screen, PIT4 was shown to interact with components of different two component systems. In one-on-one interaction assays, it was confirmed that PIT4 interacts with the histidine kinases FleS, PilS and PA2882, through interaction with the histidine kinase domain. As such, this work highlights the potential of previously unknown phage proteins in virulence regulation of multidrug resistant pathogens that might be exploited for anti-virulence strategies and biotechnological applications.

Project description:It has been shown that the filamentous phage, Pf4, plays an important role in biofilm development, stress tolerance, genetic variant formation and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. These behaviours are linked to the appearance of superinfective phage variants. Here, we have investigated the molecular mechanism of superinfection as well as how the Pf4 phage can control host gene expression to modulate host behaviours. Pf4 exists as a prophage in PAO1 and encodes a homolog of the P2 phage repressor C. Through a combination of molecular techniques, ChIPseq and transcriptomic analyses, we show that repressor C (Pf4r) is the minimal factor for immunity against reinfection by Pf4 possibly through Pf4r binding to its putative promoter region, and that Pf4r also functions as a transcriptional regulator for expression of host genes. A binding motif for Pf4r was also identified. In wild type P. aeruginosa and Pfr4 complemented Pf4 deficient mutant strains, virulence factor related genes including phenazine and type VI secretion system effectors were upregulated, potentially explaining the reduced virulence of Pf4-deficient P. aeruginosa PAO1. X-ray crystal structure analysis shows that Pf4r forms symmetric homo-dimers homologous to the E.coli bacteriophage P2 RepC protein. A mutation associated with the superinfective Pf4r variant, found at the dimer interface, suggests dimer formation may be disrupted, which derepresses phage replication. This is supported by MALS analysis where the Pf4r* protein only shows monomer formation. Collectively, these data suggest the mechanism by which filamentous phages play such an important role in P. aeruginosa biofilm development.
