Project description:Purpose: Study transcriptome differences between biofilm, planktonic and stationary cultures. Methods: Total mRNA from in vitro cultures was extracted and sequenced using Ion Torrent PGM sequencer. Results: Characteristic transcriptomic profile was observed for biofilm, planktonic and stationary cultures. Biofilm and planktonic were similar biological states. Conclusions: Results suggest that H. parasuis F9 has more active metabolism during biofilm or planktonic growth when compared to stationary culture. Some identified membrane-related genes could play an important role in biofilm life. RNA profiles of 36 hours biofilm or planktonic cultures were generated and compared with stationary culture profile.

Project description:Biofilm formation and type III secretion have been shown to be reciprocally regulated in P. aeruginosa, and it has been suggested that factors related to acute infection may be incompatible with biofilm formation. We investigated how growth conditions influence the production of virulence factors by studying the inter-relationships between colonies, biofilms and planktonic cells. We found that biofilms in our growth conditions express the type III secretion and these lifestyles are therefore not mutually exclusive in P. aeruginosa. Keywords: Comparison of different growth modes and growth phases of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Overall design: Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells grown in five different conditions were analysed with three biological replicates for each sample. The five different conditions were planktonic cells in exponential phase, planktonic cells in stationary phase, colonies on agar plates incubated for 15 or 40 hours and biofilms in a continuous flow system after three days of growth.

Project description:Persisters are cells which evade stresses like antibiotics and which are characterized by reduced metabolism and a lack of genetic alterations required to achieve this state. We showed previously that MqsR and MqsA of Escherichia coli are a toxin-antitoxin pair that influence cell physiology (e.g., biofilm formation and motility) via RNase activity as well as through regulation of toxin CspD. Here, we show that deletion of the mqsRA locus decreases persister cell formation and, consistent with this result, overexpression of MqsR increases persister cell formation. Furthermore, toxins Hha, CspD, and HokA increase persister cell formation. In addition, by overproducing MqsR in a series of isogenic mutants, we show that Hha and CspD are necessary for persister cell formation via MqsR overexpression. Surprisingly, Hfq, a small RNA chaperone, decreases persistence. A whole-transcriptome study shows that Hfq induces transport-related genes (oppA, oppB, oppC, oppD, oppF, and dppA), outer membrane protein-related genes (ybfM and ybfN), toxins (hha), and proteases (clpX, clpP, and lon). Taken together, these results indicate that toxins CspD and Hha influence persister cell formation via MqsR and that Hfq plays an important role in the regulation of persister cell formation via regulation of transport or outer membrane proteins. Overall design: Strains: E. coli BW25113 K-12 hfq deleted mutant vs. wild-type Medium: LB Culture: Planktonic cell grown OD=0.5, adjusted OD=1.0, and then exposed to 100 ug/mL ampicillin for 2 h.

Project description:Transition of microbial growth from planktonic to biofilm is associated with programmed changes in the global patterns of gene expression. These changes are likely to faciliate the appropriate physiological and metabolic adjustments that bacteria need to make during the development of biofilms. Using microarrays we have examined the changes in pattern of gene expression associated with growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis in various stages of planktonic and biofilm cultures. Keywords: developmental time course Overall design: M.smegmatis cells were harvested from logarithmic and stationary phase planktonic as well as 3day and 4day biofilm cultures. RNA extracted from these cells were subjected to labelling and hybridization on TIGR microarray chips according to the protocol described by the manufacturer.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen in the lungs of the cystic fibrosis patients. As infection develops the organism progressively adapts to its environment and its mode of pathogenesis alters, frequently including the loss of quorum sensing regulated virulence factors. We used microarrays to detail differences between two P. aeruginosa isolates from CF patients, one of which (UUPA38) exhibited an active quorum sensing system (QS+) typical of early acute infection while the other (UUPA85) was QS-compromised (QS-) typical of chronic CF-adapted infection. Bacterial cell biomass was harvested from triplicate biofilm and planktonic cultures of each of 2 strains of P. aeruginosa. RNA was extracted, converted to cDNA and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays. We aimed to identify genes which were differentially transcribed between the 2 isolates during both modes of growth.

Project description:Bacteria in biofilms have higher antibiotic tolerance than their planktonic counterparts. A major outstanding question is the degree to which the biofilm-specific cellular state and its constituent genetic determinants contribute to this hyper-tolerant phenotype. Here, using genome-wide functional profiling of a complex, heterogeneous mutant population of Pseudomonas aeruginosa MPAO1, we identified large sets of mutations that contribute to antibiotic tolerance predominantly in the biofilm or planktonic setting only. Our mixed population-based experimental design recapitulated the complexity of natural biofilms and, unlike previous studies, revealed clinically observed behaviors including the emergence of quorum sensing-deficient mutants. Our study revealed a substantial contribution of the cellular state to the antibiotic tolerance of biofilms, providing a rational foundation for the development of novel therapeutics against P. aeruginosa biofilm-associated infections. This dataset compares the expression of SAH108, a strain with enhanced antibiotic tolerance in the biofilm state, to expression in wild-type strains. Overall design: We compared the expression of two biological replicates from strain SAH108 to samples from three wild-type, reference strains. All samples were collected from exponentially-growing planktonic cultures.
