Project description:BackgroundWinkia neuii, previously known as Actinomyces neuii, is increasingly recognized as a causative agent of various human infections, while its taxonomy and genomic insights are still understudied.MethodsA Winkia strain NY0527 was isolated from the hip abscess of a patient, and its antibiotic susceptibility was assessed. The genome was hybrid assembled from long-reads and short-reads sequencing. Whole-genome-based analyses on taxa assignment, strain diversity, and pathogenesis were conducted.ResultsThe strain was found to be highly susceptible to beta-lactam antibiotics, but resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, and amikacin. The complete genome sequences of this strain were assembled and found to consist of a circular chromosome and a circular plasmid. Sequence alignment to the NCBI-nt database revealed that the plasmid had high sequence identity (>90%) to four Corynebacterium plasmids, with 40-50% query sequence coverage. Furthermore, the plasmid was discovered to possibly originate from the sequence recombination events of two Corynebacterium plasmid families. Phylogenomic tree and genomic average nucleotide identity analyses indicated that many Winkia sp. strains were still erroneously assigned as Actinomyces sp. strains, and the documented subspecies within W. neuii should be reclassified as two separate species (i.e., W. neuii and W. anitratus). The core genome of each species carried a chromosome-coded beta-lactamase expression repressor gene, which may account for their broadly observed susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics in clinical settings. Additionally, an ermX gene that expresses fluoroquinolone resistance was shared by some W. neuii and W. anitratus strains, possibly acquired by IS6 transposase-directed gene transfer events. In contrast, tetracycline resistance genes were exclusively carried by W. neuii strains. In particular, W. neuii was found to be more pathogenic than W. anitratus by encoding more virulence factors (i.e., 35-38 in W. neuii vs 27-31 in W. anitratus). Moreover, both species encoded two core pathogenic virulence factors, namely hemolysin and sialidase, which may facilitate their infections by expressing poreformation, adhesion, and immunoglobulin deglycosylation activities.ConclusionThis study highlights the underappreciated taxonomic diversity of Winkia spp. and provides populational genomic insights into their antibiotic susceptibility and pathogenesis for the first time, which could be helpful in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Winkia spp. infections.

Project description:Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis is an important Gram-positive phytopathogenic bacteria that causes bacterial wilt and canker in tomato. The genome of the type strain, NCPPB382, has been sequenced and annotated, however comparative genomics suggests that certain regions are under- or misannotated. In order to improve the genome annotation, we have undertaken a proteogenomic study of this important pathogen. Samples were grown in culture and the proteome of the pellet and supernatant were analyzed separately using shotgun HPLC-MS/MS. These proteomics datasets were analyzed and a number of missing gene were found and a number of existing gene calls were modified.

Project description:Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus is a commensal of the human gastrointestinal tract and a pathogen of infective endocarditis and other biofilm-associated infections with exposed collagen. Therefore, this study focuses on the characterization of the biofilm formation and collagen adhesion of S. gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus under different conditions. It has been observed that lysozyme triggers biofilm formation divergently in the analyzed S. gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus strains. The transcriptome analysis was performed for two strains which form more biofilm in the presence of lysozyme. Lysozyme leads to higher expression of genes of transcription and translation, of the dlt operon (cell wall modification), of hydrogen peroxide resistance proteins and of two immunity proteins which could be involved in biofilm formation. Furthermore, the adhesion ability of 73 different S. gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus strains to collagen type I and IV was analyzed. High adhesion ability was observed for the strain UCN 34, whereas the strain DSM 16831 adhered only marginally to collagen. The full genome microarray analysis revealed strain-dependent gene expression due to adhesion. The expression of genes of a transposon and a phage region in strain DSM 16831 were increased, which corresponds to lateral gene transfer. Adherence to collagen leads to a change in the expression of genes of nutrients uptake in the strain UCN 34.
