Project description:For over 30 years, serine hydroxamate has been used to chemically stimulate a stringent response in Escherichia coli and other bacteria. These studies have elucidated numerous characteristics of the classical stringent response beyond the simple cellular response to an amino acid shortage, including phospholipid synthesis and protease up-regulation. In this study, the effects of a serine hydroxamate addition on high cell density recombinant E. coli were examined and compared to the effects of recombinant protein production to determine overlaps, as recombinant protein production stress has often been attributed to amino acid shortages. Both the transcriptome and growth characteristics were evaluated and compared. The serine hydroxamate addition profoundly decreased the culture growth rate, whereas, recombinant protein production did not. Conversely, the transcriptome profile of the recombinant E. coli cultures were relatively unaffected by the serine hydroxamate addition, yet recombinant protein production dramatically changed the transcriptome profile. A subset of the classical stringent response genes were effected by the serine hydroxamate addition, whereas, recombinant protein production regulated numerous classical stringent response genes; however, not all. The genes that were regulated by the serine hydroxamate addition include numerous fatty acid synthesis genes, in agreement with altered phospholipids synthesis reports. These results indicate that recombinant protein production and the stringent response have many overlapping responses; however, are far from identical. It was hypothesized that recombinant protein production leads to a stringent response due to the high amino acid synthesis demands related to recombinant protein synthesis. A comparison of the transcriptomes during recombinant protein production and a chemical imposed stringent response would assist with determining what portion of the “metabolic burden” associated with recombinant protein production is due to amino acid shortages. In this study, the transcriptome profiles of recombinant E. coli were examined and compared for the three culture conditions: 1) Normal growth, no external stress; 2) L-serine hydroxamate addition (to mediate a stringent response); and 3) IPTG-induction to produce the recombinant protein chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT). The transcriptome profiles from these three conditions were analyzed using Affymetrix Anti-sense E. coli GeneChip® microarrays. Experiment Overall Design: For the serine hydroxamate fermentations, cells were harvested immediately prior to the serine hydroxamate-addition (Time S0) and 1-hour post serine hydroxamate-addition (Time S1). For the IPTG-induced fermentations, cells were harvested immediately prior to the IPTG-addition (Time S0) and 1-hour post-induction (Time S1). For the uninduced (unstressed) fermentations, cells were harvested at Time S0 and Time S1, for which the timing was synchronized with the serine hydroxamate and IPTG fermentations based on OD for Time S0 and time for Time S1. Each fermentation condition was repeated (two biological replicates). RNA from each biological replicates was purified and processed independently. Three biological replicates were obtained for the control condition (Time S0), since prior the serine hydroxamate- or IPTG- addition all fermentations were replicates. Prior to DNA microarray hybridization, where only two biological replicates existed, one of the processed samples was divided into two technical replicates, resulting in three separate hybridized chips. All Time S1 samples contained three technical replicates from two biological duplicates, whereas the control Time S0 measurement contained three biological replicates.

Project description:Although protein acetylation is widely observed, it has been associated with few specific regulatory functions making it poorly understood. To interrogate its functionality, we analyzed the acetylome in Escherichia coli knockout mutants of cobB, the only known sirtuin-like deacetylase, and patZ, the best-known protein acetyltransferase. For four growth conditions, more than 2,000 unique acetylated peptides, belonging to 809 proteins, were identified and differentially quantified. Nearly 65% of these proteins are related to metabolism. The global activity of CobB contributes to the deacetylation of a large number of substrates and has a major impact on physiology. Apart from the regulation of acetyl-CoA synthetase, we found that CobB-controlled acetylation of isocitrate lyase contributes to the fine-tuning of the glyoxylate shunt. Acetylation of the transcription factor RcsB prevents DNA binding, activating flagella biosynthesis and motility, and increases acid stress susceptibility. Surprisingly, deletion of patZ increased acetylation in acetate cultures, which suggests that it regulates the levels of acetylating agents. The results presented offer new insights into functional roles of protein acetylation in metabolic fitness and global cell regulation. In this study we aimed to discover how the deregulation of protein acetylation could alter physiology in E. coli. We observed that the deletion of both cobB or patZ genes in E. coli altered gene expression, specially those genes related with motility, chemotaxis and acid stress response. We used three biological replicates in this study and each condition. The control in these experiments was E. coli BW25113

Project description:To study the regulatory outcome of Hfq-mediated sRNA-target interactions, we measured the change in gene expression following overexpression of each of five well-established sRNAs: GcvB, MicA, ArcZ, RyhB and CyaR. For each of the studied sRNAs we applied RNA-seq to two E. coli K-12 MG1655 strains: (1) a WT strain or a strain deleted of the sRNA gene; (2) a strain overexpressing the sRNA, either artificially from a plasmid or from the endogenous sRNA gene by changing the growth condition. For GcvB induction, the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 gcvB::Cm, pZA12-gcvB and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 gcvB::Cm, pTP-011 strains were used. For MicA overexpression the E. coli K-12 MG1655lacIq pBRplac, pEF21-Hfq and the E. coli K-12 MG1655lacIq pMicA, pEF21-Hfq strains were used. For ArcZ induction the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 arcZ::Cm, pZE12-ArcZ and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 arcZ::Cm, pJV300 strains were used. For RyhB overexpression the E. coli K-12 MG1655 ryhB::Cm and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 were used. For CyaR induction the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 cyaR::Cm, pZE12-CyaR and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 Z1 cyaR::Cm, pJV300 strains were used. All E. coli strains used in this study were grown overnight in Luria Bertani (LB) medium at 37 °C with shaking (200 r.p.m.), diluted 100-fold in fresh LB medium, and re-grown with shaking at 37 °C to exponential phase, for GcvB (OD600 = 0.3) and for RyhB (OD600 = 0.5), or to stationary phase, for ArcZ WT, ArcZ M1, ArcZ M2 and CyaR (OD600 = 1.0) and for MicA (grown for 6 hr). For induction of ArcZ and GcvB, IPTG was added (1mM, 20 min). MicA was constitutively expressed and further induced at the end of growth with IPTG (1mM, 20 min). For induction of RyhB, the iron chelator 2,2'-Dipyridyl was added (200 μM, 30 min).

Project description:The objective of this work was to design an improved host platform for recombinant protein expression in E. coli. The approach involves first to create a library of the E. coli genomic DNA in different expression vectors and screen for probable transcripts which may lead to slow growing colonies and also simultaneously over-expression of recombinant proteins. To observe its effect on host performance, these genes were knocked out from the E. coli genome. A CG2 strain has been created by knocking in vhb gene gene downstream of the acetate promoter and knocking down ribB gene in DH5α and transformed with Recombinant GFP cloned in pBAD33. E. coli DH5α (control strain), and strain CG2 were transformed with pBAD33-GFP and cultured in well controlled fed batch fermentations. The effect of three parameters was sought to be studied. The first was the effect of time post induction and thus samples were collected 0, 2, 4 and 6 hours post induction. The second parameter was the effect of host modification and hence both the control and the modified host (CG2) were studied at μ = 0.3 h-1. The third parameter was the effect of specific growth rate and thus the host (CG2) was run at μ = 0.3 h-1 and 0.6 h-1.

Project description:The physiology of ethanologenic Escherichia coli grown anaerobically in alkaline-pretreated plant hydrolysates is not well studied. To gain insight into how E. coli responds to such hydrolysates, we studied an E. coli K-12 ethanologen fermenting a hydrolysate prepared from corn stover pre-treated by ammonia fiber expansion. Despite the high sugar content (~6% glucose, 3% xylose) and relatively low toxicity of this hydrolysate, E. coli ceased growth long before glucose was depleted. Nevertheless, the cells remained metabolically active and continued conversion of glucose to ethanol until all glucose was consumed. Gene expression profiling revealed complex and changing patterns of metabolic physiology and cellular stress responses throughout the different stages of growth. During the exponential and transition phases of growth, high cell maintenance and stress response costs were mitigated, in part, by free amino acids available in the hydrolysate media. However, after the majority of amino acids were depleted from the media cells entered stationary phase and ATP derived from glucose fermentation was consumed entirely by the demands of cell maintenance in the hydrolysate. Comparative gene expression profiling and metabolic modeling of the ethanologen suggested that the high energetic cost of mitigating osmotic, lignotoxin and ethanol stress collectively limits growth, sugar utilization rates and ethanol yields in alkaline-pretreated lignocellulosic hydrolysates. 38 samples in total. 24 samples were derived from biological replicate fermentations of alkaline-pretreated cornstover hydrolysate (12 datapoint time-series per fermentation). The remaining samples were obtained from fermentations conducted in defined media (Glucose Minimal Media (GMM, n=7), Synthetic Hydrolysate media (SynH, n=7)).

Project description:A microarray study was performed to identify the Escherichia coli SlyA regulon. The wild-type (parental) Escherichia coli MG1655 strain was compared to an isogenic slyA deletion mutant, whilst a slyA-overexpression strain (in pET28a) was compared to an empty (pET28a) vector control. Continuous chemostat cultures were obtained (Evans medium pH 6.9, 0.2 h-1 dilution rate, 1 culture volume per hour air input, 400 rpm). Samples were eluted directly into RNAprotect, RNA purified and then hybridised in a reference-style format to micorarrays.
