Steady-state hydrogen peroxide induces glycolysis via metabolic reroute in P. aeruginosa and S. aureus

ABSTRACT: GAPDHs from human pathogens S. aureus and P. aeruginosa can be readily inhibited by ROS-mediated direct oxidation of their catalytic active cysteines. Because of the rapid degradation of H2O2 by bacterial catalase, only steady-state but not one-dose treatment of H2O2 induces rapid metabolic reroute from glycolysis to pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). We conducted RNA-seq analyses to globally profile the bacterial transcriptomes in response to a steady level of H2O2, which reveals profound transcriptional changes including the induced expression of glycolytic genes in both bacteria. Our results revealed that the inactivation of GAPDH by H2O2 induces a metabolic reroute from glycolysis to PPP; the elevated levels of fructose 1,6-biphosphate (FBP) and 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) lead to dissociation of their corresponding glycolytic repressors (GapR and HexR, respectively) from their cognate promoters, thus resulting in derepression of the glycolytic genes to overcome H2O2-stalled glycolysis in S. aureus and P. aeruginosa, respectively. Given that H2O2 can be produced constitutively by the host immune response, exposure to the steady-state stress of H2O2 recapitulates more accurately bacterial responses to host immune system in vivo.

Project description:Oxygen fluctuation during tissue remodeling imposes a major metabolic challenge in human tumors. Stem-like tumor cells in glioblastomas are believed to possess extraordinary metabolic flexibility, enabling them to initiate growth even under non-permissive conditions. To identify adaptive response mechanism, we compared the effects of acute and chronic hypoxia versus oxygenation on stem-like glioblastoma (GS) cells. GS cell lines were established and propagated either under normoxia (21% O2) or hypoxia (1% O2) and subsequently exposed to acute normoxia or hypoxia, respectively. Gene expression profiling revealed that acute hypoxia predominantly induced metabolic pathways and cell cycle arrest, whereas chronic hypoxia activated neurodevelopmental processes. In particular, we found increased expression of glycolytic enzymes, especially of the preparatory phase of glycolysis, under acute hypoxia, whereas pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) enzymes were downregulated. The opposite was found for acute oxygenation of hypoxic GS cells. Findings were confirmed by qPCR and immunoblot analyses. Despite downregulation by hypoxia, expression of PPP enzymes is increased in GBMs compared to normal brain, whereas expression of hypoxia-inducible enzymes of the parallel preparatory phase of glycolysis is decreased. Immunohistochemistry revealed strong staining for PPP enzymes in the bulk of GBM tissue, especially in highly proliferative areas, but not in pseudopalisading (hypoxic) cells. Glycolytic enzymes displayed an inverse pattern. Mass spectrometric analysis using [1,2-13C2]-D-glucose showed reduced glucose flux through the PPP under hypoxia in favor of flux through glycolysis. Acute and chronic hypoxia increased cell migration but reduced proliferation, whereas normoxia had opposite effects. Our findings extend Warburg’s observations by showing that in most tumor cells the PPP, which supplies metabolites for biomass production, is favored over the parallel preparatory phase of glycolysis, but is suppressed under acute severe hypoxia, causing a switch to direct glycolysis to protect against hypoxic stress.

Project description:Regulation of gene expression by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important component of abiotic stress signal transduction mechanisms. Previous genome-wide analysis of chilling-induced changes in gene expression suggested a potential role of H2O2 and other ROS as key signals in the induction of early response genes in japonica rice (cv. Nipponbare). Candidate regulators including bZIP-, Myb- or WRKY-types of transcription factors that were responsive to both chilling (10oC) and exogenous H2O2, and their probable target clusters (as1/ocs/TGA1-like, MybR-like element containing genes) were inferred by integrative analysis of qPCR expression profiles and ab initio promoter motif data. In an effort to define the composition and hierarchical organization of the ROS-mediated chilling response regulatory networks, we examined the effect of exogenous H2O2 (6 hours in 4mM H2O2 at 28oC and then 6 hours of recovery in water at 28oC) on the transcriptome of Nipponbare in a genome-wide scale and compared them with the chilling stress transcriptome. Results of this study were consistent with our earlier model that a ROSbZIP-as1/ocs/TGA1 regulatory module is a direct consequence of chilling-induced elevation of intracellular ROS during the initial 24 hours. Keywords: time course (response to exogenous H2O2) This experiment describes the analysis of the temporal changes in gene expression in response to exogenous H2O2 in Nipponbare rice. A total of 5 treatment regimes were examined (1, 3, and 6 hours at 4 mM H2O2 and then 3 and 6 hours of recovery in water after 6 hours of exposure to H2O2). The microarray platform used in this study was the 45K oligonucleotide microarray (www.ricearray.org) which comes in pairs of slides A and B (each containing about 50% of the total number of features). The data described in this series include all hybridizations with slide A and with slide B. All experiments were performed with two independent biological replicates (R1 and R2) for each time point.

Project description:Previous findings have demonstrated that the NADH/NAD+ ratio has a strong impact on the glycolytic flux in C. glutamicum under anaerobic conditions in the absence of external electron acceptors. During an attempt to rewire anaerobic metabolism to achieve high yield formation of ethanol, we inactivated the malate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase in a C. glutamicum strain expressing pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase, to eliminate formation of the by-products succinate and lactate, respectively. This modification increased the yield of ethanol but had a negative effect on glycolysis, which we found to correlate with an elevated NADH/NAD+ ratio. The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) of C. glutamicum is active under anaerobic conditions, and can potentially exacerbate the negative effect on glycolysis, due to NADH formation. To reduce PDH activity under anaerobic conditions, we decided to replace the gene encoding the E3 subunit of PDH with its Escherichia coli counterpart, as E. coli PDH has been reported to be functional under aerobic conditions only. The resultant strain JS133 produced far less acetate with a further increased ethanol production, however, the glycolytic flux was still low. After observing differences in glycolytic flux for JS133 on glucose and fructose, we speculated that the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) might be involved in the reduced flux on glucose. To prove this, we deleted the zwf gene, encoding glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which is the entry point into PPP, and immediately observed a stimulating effect on glycolysis. Subsequent characterization revealed a direct correlation between the intracellular NADH/NAD+ and NADPH/NADP+ ratios under anoxic conditions. Based on these findings we managed to re-channel the metabolism of C. glutamicum successfully towards either to ethanol or D-lactate with 92% and 98% of the theoretical yield respectively, which is the highest yields for D-lactate production thus far reported in the literature.
