Expression data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa +/- 1% ethanol

ABSTRACT: Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequently resides among ethanol-producing microbes, making its response to these microbially-produced concentrations of ethanol relevant to understanding its biology. Transcriptome analysis found that the genes involved in trehalose metabolism were induced by low concentrations of ethanol, and levels of intracellular trehalose increased significantly upon growth with ethanol. The increase in trehalose was dependent on the TreYZ pathway, and not other trehalose metabolic enzymes TreS or TreA. The sigma factor AlgU (AlgT), a homolog of RpoE in other species, was required for increased expression of the treZ gene and trehalose levels, but induction was not controlled by the well-characterized proteolysis of its antisigma factor MucA. Growth with ethanol led to increased (p)ppGpp, synthesized by SpoT, and genetic data suggest that increased (p)ppGpp stimulates AlgU-dependent transcription of treZ and other AlgU-regulated genes through DksA, a (p)ppGpp and RNA polymerase binding protein. Ethanol stimulation of trehalose also required acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-mediated quorum sensing, as induction was not observed in a ∆lasR∆rhlR strain. A network analysis of publicly available P. aeruginosa transcriptome datasets using eADAGE provided strong support for our model that treZ and co-regulated genes are controlled by both AlgU and AHL-mediated QS. Consistent with (p)ppGpp and AHL-mediated quorum sensing regulation, ethanol, even when added at the time of culture inoculation, only stimulated treZ transcript levels and trehalose production in post-exponential phase cultures. These data highlight the integration of growth and cell density cues in responses to ethanol.

Lactonase Specificity is Key to Quorum Quenching in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:The human opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa orchestrates the expression of many genes in a cell density-dependent manner by using a molecular communication system referred to as quorum sensing (QS). This bacterium uses an intricate network of regulators and QS molecules known as autoinducers. Among these autoinducers are two acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) involved in QS circuits which modulate virulence factors production, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial sensitivity. Disrupting QS, a strategy referred to as quorum quenching (QQ), is a promising approach to modulate virulence while not directly challenging bacterial survival. For P. aeruginosa, QQ can be achieved using exogenous AHL-degrading lactonases. However, the importance of enzyme specificity on quenching efficacy has never been investigated. Here, we used two lactonases both targeting the signal molecules N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-Homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C12 HSL) and butyryl-homoserine lactone (C4 HSL) albeit with different efficacy on C4 HSL. Interestingly, both lactonases similarly decreased the concentrations of AHL and comparably impacted the expression of AHL-based circuits. Conversely, strong variations were observed in Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS) regulation. Both lactonases were then found to decrease virulence factors production and biofilm formation in vitro, albeit with different efficiencies. Unexpectedly, only the lactonase with substrate preference for 3-oxo-C12 HSL was able to inhibit P. aeruginosa pathogenicity in vivo in an amoeba infection model. Similarly, large variations between lactonases were observed in proteins involved in antibiotic resistance, biofilm formation, virulence and diverse cellular mechanisms. This global analysis provides the first evidence that QQ enzyme specificity is crucial to modulate QS-associated behavior in P. aeruginosa PA14.

Alterations in the extracellular proteome of human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa in response to natural and modified N-acyl-L-homoserine lactones

Project description:The common opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa employs quorum sensing QS to regulate a large set of genes involved in virulence and host-pathogen interactions. The Las circuit positioned on the top of the QS hierarchy in P. aeruginosa, makes use of N-acyl-L-homoserine lactones (AHL) as signal molecules, like N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (3O-C12-HSL). Here, a quantitative proteomic approach was used to study the effect of natural 3O-C12-HSL and four AHL analogues on the expression and excretion of QS-regulated extracellular proteins. Treatment with AHL compounds resulted in significant difference in appearance of the 3O-C12-HSL-responsive reference proteins related to QS communication and virulence, i.e., a distinct activity as QS modulators. In summary, 3O-C12-HSL has a profound effect on extracellular proteome involved in the pathogenicity of P. aeruginosa, and the four AHL analogues have achieved a distinct inhibitory effect on the extracellular proteome.

Dual Function of Tropodithietic Acid as Antibiotic and Signaling Molecule in Quorum Sensing

Project description:The marine bacterium Phaeobacter inhibens produces tropodithietic acid (TDA), a broad-spectrum antibiotic and anticancer agent. TDA allows P. inhibens to antagonize other bacteria, including several pathogens, and eukaryotes. Since recently antibiotics are also discussed to function as intermicrobial signals. Here we show that ~10% of the genes of P. inhibens are strongly influenced by N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) mediated quorum sensing (QS), switching the bacteriumâs life style from attached to free-living. In an AHL negative mutant of P. inhibens subinhibitory concentrations of TDA caused the same regulatory effect as the AHL. This demonstrates that bacteria can produce antibiotic compounds not only as weapons, but also to substitute their endogenous AHL molecule in QS. The dual function of TDA probably supports the QS system to accelerate regulatory processes and points to a so far neglected role of antibiotics at subinhibitory concentrations in the environment and in microbial interactions. Comparison of whole transcriptomes of wildytype, quorum sensing mutants (pgaI and pgaR) and pgaI grown supplemented with subinhibitory concentration of the antibiotic TDA. RNA isolated in the late exponential growth phase. 4 biological replicates investigated for each strain.

Transcriptional analysis of AHLs signal treatment at 30°C

Project description:Yersinia pestis, the etiological agent of plague, is able to sense cell density by quorum sensing. The function of quorum sensing in Y. pestis is not clear. Here, the process of AHL quorum sensing was investigated by comparing transcript profiles when two AHL quorum-sensing signals are added in. The strain Δpgm (pigmentation-negative) mutant was called wild type. The two AHLs signals are N-(3-Oxooctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone and N-Hexanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone.The control consisted of cells grown and treated under the same conditions without added signals.

Global gene expression analysis of Yersinia pestis AHL quorum sensing at 37Â°C

Project description:Quorum sensing is a cell to cell communication process that involves chemical signaling. Yersinia pestis, the agent of plague, has two functional AHL quorum sensing systems Ysp and Ype. For several reasons, it was not clear what effect AHL pathways have on virulence gene expression and survival in the two different hosts, flea and human. To investigate to what effect AHL quorum sensing has on gene expression, we conducted microarray studies comparing Yersinia pestis CO92 (âpgm) to a double AHL mutant strain (âpgm ÎypeIR ÎyspIR) at 37Â°C. Six independent RNA samples from Y. pestis CO92 R114 AHL deficient cultures were paired with six independent RNA samples from control Y. pestis CO92 R88 cultures for hybridization to six two-color microarrays. For three arrays, the control RNA sample was labeled with Alexa 555 dye and the experimental RNA sample was labeled with Alexa 647 dye; the dyes were reversed for the other three arrays to account for any dye bias.
