Project description:To unravel molecular targets involved in glycopeptide resistance, three isogenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus with different susceptibility levels to vancomycin or teicoplanin were subjected to whole-genome microarray-based transcription and quantitative proteomic profiling. Quantitative proteomics performed on membrane extracts showed exquisite inter-experimental reproducibility permitting the identification and relative quantification of >30% of the predicted S. aureus proteome. In the absence of antibiotic selection pressure, comparison of stable resistant and susceptible strains revealed 94 differentially expressed genes and 178 proteins. As expected, only partial correlation was obtained between transcriptomic and proteomic results during stationary-phase. Application of massively parallel methods identified one third of the complete proteome, a majority of which was only predicted based on genome sequencing, but never identified to date. Several over‑expressed genes represent previously reported targets, while series of genes and proteins possibly involved in the glycopeptide resistance mechanism were discovered here, including regulators, global regulator attenuator, hyper‑mutability factor or hypothetical proteins. Gene expression of these markers was confirmed in a collection of genetically unrelated strains showing altered susceptibility to glycopeptides. Our proteome and transcriptome analyses have been performed during stationary‑phase of growth on isogenic strains showing susceptibility or intermediate level of resistance against glycopeptides. Altered susceptibility had emerged spontaneously after infection with a sensitive parental strain, thus not selected in vitro. This combined analysis allows the identification of hundreds of proteins considered, so far as hypothetical protein. In addition, this study provides not only a global picture of transcription and expression adaptations during a complex antibiotic resistance mechanism but also unravels potential drug targets or markers that are constitutively expressed by resistant strains regardless of their genetic background, amenable to be used as diagnostic targets.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most important pathogens in humans and animals, multiply resistant strains are increasingly widespread, new agents are needed for the treatment of S. aureus. Rhein, a natural plant product, has potential antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. We employed Affymetrix Staphylococcus aureus GeneChipsTM arrays to investigate the global transcriptional profiling of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923 treated with rhein. Results provided insight into mechanisms involved in rhein - Staphylococcus aureus interactions. Keywords: rhein response

Project description:S. aureus and S. epidermidis were challenged with D-sphingosine, an antimicrobial lipid similar to sphingosines found in the major staphylococcal niche- human skin. Comparison of responses was used to identify resistance mechanisms and likely mode of action

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are often co-isolated in persistent infections. The goal of this study was to determine how secreted products from S. aureus affect gene expression in P. aeruginosa. Therefore, media control or S. aureus supernatant was added to P. aeruginosa cultures at 25% total volume and gene expression was measured at 20 min, 1 h, and 2 h using RNA-seq. Overall, after addition of S. aureus supernatant, there was an upregulation in genes involved in metal deprivation and intermediate metabolite uptake.

Project description:In the present study we analyzed the response of S. aureus to mupirocin, the drug of choice for nasal decolonization of S. aureus. Mupirocin selectively inhibits the bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRSs) leading to the accumulation of uncharged isoleucyl-tRNA and hence (p)ppGpp. The latter is a signal for the induction of the stringent response, an important global transcriptional and translational control mechanism that allows bacteria to adapt to nutritional deprivation. To identify proteins with an altered synthesis pattern in response to mupirocin treatment we used the highly sensitive 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis technique in combination with mass spectrometry. Obtained results were complemented by DNA-microarray, Northern blot and metabolome analysis. Whereas expression of genes involved in nucleotide biosynthesis, DNA metabolism, energy metabolism and translation was significantly down-regulated, expression of the isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, the branched chain amino acids pathway, genes with functions in oxidative stress resistance (ahpC, katA), putative roles in stress protection (SACOL1759, SACOL2131, SACOL0815) and transport processes was increased. Of particular interest were the differences in the transcription of genes encoding virulence associated regulators (i.e. arlRS, saeRS, sarA, sarR, sarS) as well as genes directly involved in the virulence of S. aureus (i.e. fnbA, epiE, epiG, seb). In the present study we analyzed the response of S. aureus to mupirocin, the drug of choice for nasal decolonization of S. aureus. Mupirocin selectively inhibits the bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRSs) leading to the accumulation of uncharged isoleucyl-tRNA and hence (p)ppGpp. The latter is a signal for the induction of the stringent response, an important global transcriptional and translational control mechanism that allows bacteria to adapt to nutritional deprivation.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the most important pathogens in humans and animals. The formation of S. aureus biofilm is considered an important mechanism of antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, finding effective drugs against the biofilm produced by S. aureus has been a high priority. Licochalcone A, a natural plant product, was reported to have antibacterial activities and showed good activity against all 21 tested strains of S. aureus biofilm and planktonic cells. To detect the possible molecular mechanism of Licochalcone A against S. aureus biofillm or planktonic cells, Affymetrix GeneChips were used to determine the global comparative transcription of S. aureus biofilm and planktonic cells triggered by treatment with sub-bactericidal and sub-inhibitory concentrations of Licochalcone A, respectively.

Project description:S. aureus is one of the major human pathogens that greatly impacts individuals and causes a variety of illnesses ranging from minor skin infections to life-threatening diseases, such as endocarditis, pneumonia, septicemia and toxic shock syndrome. Stk1/Stp1 are particular important for S. aureus pathogenesis and survival as they are thought to participate in regulating virulence, cell wall structure and antibiotic resistance. Understanding how Ser/Thr phosphorylation regulates virulence and antibiotic resistance will provide foundation for the development of novel therapeutic strategies against S. aureus infection. The phosphoproteomic analysis of Staphylococcus aureus Newman strain led to the identification of 76 peptides with mapped phosphorylation sites belonging to 29 distinct proteins. In the case of Stk1, only one peptide (residues 157-182), with the sequence ALSETSLTQTNHVLGTVQYFSPEQAK, was predicted to have a cluster of six phosphorylation sites (Ser159, Thr161, Ser162, Thr164, Thr166 and Thr172). This segment overlaps with the sequence of kinase activation loop (residues 154-176) in Stk1. Further biochemical studies revealed cis autophosphorylation of Thr172 in the GT/S motif is necessary for self-activation and kinase activity of Stk1, whereas the trans autophosphorylation of other activation loop serines/threonins are essential for the optimal kinase activity of Stk1.
