Comparative Analysis of Antifungal Mechanism of Lauryl betaine in the Human Fungal Pathogens Cryptococcus neoformans and Malassezia restricta

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Understanding the mechanism of action of lauryl betaine against Cryptococcus neoformans and Malassezia restricta. Methods: The transcriptome profile of the lauryl betaine-treated cells compared to that of untreated cells were generated by RNA-seq Illumina Hiseq. Results: A number of genes were differentially expressed in the lauryl betaine-treated cells, which include genes involved in ergosterol biosynthetic pathway.

A defect in iron uptake enhances the susceptibility of Cryptococcus neoformans to azole antifungal drugs.

Project description:Transcriptome profiling of wild type and cfo1 mutant with fluconazole treatment in Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii H99 Purpose: The goals of this study are to compare cfo1 mutant transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to wild-type with or without fluconazole treatment in Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii H99. Methods: mRNA profiles of wild-type and cfo1 mutant with or without fluconazole treatment were generated by RNA-Seq, using Illumina GAIIx. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were mapped to reference genome and the normalized RPKM values were calculated by CLC Genomics Workbench. Results: Compared to wild-type, a number of genes were differentially expressed in the cfo1 mutant, especially genes involved in iron homeostasis and transport, ergosterol biosynthesis, mitochondrial function and respiration. Conclusions: Our data suggested reduced expression of the genes in the respiratory chain is the main reason for altered antifungal sensitivity of the cfo1 mutant. The results of our study revealed that iron uptake plays a key role in fluconazole sensitivity of C. neoformans.

Metabolic reconstruction of lipid metabolism of Malassezia

Project description:Malassezia species are lipophilic and lipid dependent yeasts belonging to the human and animal microbiota. Typically, they are isolated from regions rich in sebaceous glands. They have been associated with dermatological diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis, tinea versicolor, atopic dermatitis, and folliculitis. Genome sequences of Malassezia globosa, Malassezia sympodialis, and Malassezia pachydermatis lack genes related to fatty acid synthesis. Here, lipid synthesis pathways of M. furfur, M. pachydermatis, M. globosa, M. sympodialis and an atypical variant of M. furfur were reconstructed using genome data and Constraints Based Reconstruction and Analysis. The metabolic reconstruction allowed us to predict variation in the fluxes of each reaction over the network to satisfy the biomass objective function. Proteomic profiling improved and validated the models through data integration. Results suggest that several mechanisms including steroid and butanoate metabolism explain the yeast’s growth under different lipid conditions. Flux differences were observed in production of riboflavin in M. furfur and the biosynthesis of glycerolipids in the atypical variant of M. furfur and Malassezia sympodialis.

Integrative genome annotation of Malassezia sympodialis

Project description:The skin commensal yeast Malassezia is associated with several skin disorders. To establish a reference resource, we sought to determine the complete genome sequence of Malassezia sympodialis and identify its protein-coding genes. A novel genome annotation workflow combining RNA sequencing, proteomics, and manual curation was developed to determine gene structures with high accuracy.
