Effect of the LuxI/R gene on AHL-signaling Molecules and QS Regulatory Mechanism in Hafnia alvei H4

ABSTRACT: Hafnia alvei H4 is a bacteria subject to regulation by N-acyl-l-homoserine lactone (AHL)-mediated quorum sensing system and is closely related to the corruption of instant sea cucumber. Studying the effect of Hafnia alvei H4 quorum sensing regulatory genes on AHLs is necessary for the quality and preservation of instant sea cucumber. In this study, the draft genome of H. alvei H4, which comprises a single chromosome of 4,687,151 bp, was sequenced and analyzed and the types of AHLs were analyzed employing thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and LC-MS/MS. Then the wild-type strain of H. alvei H4 and the luxI/R double mutant (ΔluxIR) were compared by transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq). The results indicate that the incomplete genome sequence revealed the presence of one quorum-sensing (QS) gene set, designated as lasI/expR. Three major AHLs, N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL), N-butyryl-L-homoserine lactone (C4-HSL), and N-(3-oxo-octanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C8-HSL) were found, with C6-HSL being the most abundant. C6-HSL was not detected in the culture of the luxI mutant (ΔluxI) and higher levels of C4-HSL was found in the culture of the luxR mutant (ΔluxR), which suggested that the luxR gene may have a positive effect on C4-HSL production. It was also found that AHL and QS genes are closely related in the absence of luxIR double deletion. The results of this study can further elucidate at the genetic level that luxI and luxR genes are involved in the regulation of AHL.

Response to different N-acyl homoserine lactones and N-acyl homoserine lactones-pretreated plants to secondary challenge with flg22.

Project description:In order to gain coherent insights into plant responses we performed transcriptional analysis of Arabidopsis seedling after treatment with three different AHLs: N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL), N-3-oxo-decanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (oxo-C10-HSL), and N-3-oxo-tetradecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (oxo-C14-HSL). Furthermore, we analyzed the transcriptome of oxo-C14-HSL pretreated plants after a secondary challenge with 100 nM flg22 for 2 and 24 hours after treatment. Gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings were measured after a 3-days-pretreatment with 6 ÂµM of three different N-acyl homoserine lactones in comparison to plants treated with the coresponding volume of acetone (solvent control). Plants pretreated with oxo-C14-HSL were in addition treated with 100nM of flg22 to induced defense response. Three independent experiments were performed (replicates).

Heterologous acyl-homoserine lactone synthase expression in Pseudomonas putida

Project description:Many bacteria harbor an incomplete quorum sensing system, wherein they possess LuxR homologues without the quorum sensing acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) synthase, which is encoded by a luxI homolog. An artificial AHL-producing plasmid was constructed using a cviI gene encoding for C6-AHL (HHL) synthase from Chromobacterium violaceum and was introduced successfully into both wild-type and the ppoR (a luxR homolog) mutant. Our data provides evidence to suggest that the PpoR-HHL complex, but neither PpoR nor HHL alone, could attenuate growth, antibiotic resistance, and biofilm formation ability. In contrast, swimming motility, siderophore production, and indole degradation were enhanced by PpoR-HHL. The addition of exogenous indole increased biofilm formation and reduce swimming motility. Interestingly, indole proved ineffective in the presence of PpoR-HHL, thereby suggesting that the PpoR-HHL complex masks the effects of indole. Our data was supported by transcriptome analyses showing that the presence of the plasmid-encoded AHL synthase altered the expression of many genes on the chromosome in strain KT2440. Our results showed that heterologous luxI expression occurring via horizontal gene transfer can regulate a broad range of specific target genes, resulting in alterations of the phenotype and physiology of host cells.

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.

Genome-wide map of Flagx3-DnaA bound to DNA in exponentially growing Sinorhizobium meliloti cultures

Project description:The genome of Sinorhizobium meliloti, a model for studying plant-bacteria symbiosis, contains the genes coding for eight LuxR-like proteins. Two of these, SinR and ExpR, are essential for quorum sensing (QS). Roles and regulation surrounding the others are mostly unknown. Here, we reveal the DNA recognition sequence and regulon of the LuxR-like protein SMc00877. Unlike ExpR, which uses the long chain acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) as inducers, SMc00877 functioned independently of AHLs and was even functional in Escherichia coli. A target of SMc00877 is sinR, the major regulator of AHL production in S. meliloti. Disruption of SMc00877 decreased AHL production. A weaker production of AHLs resulted in smaller microcolonies, starting from single cells, and delayed AHL dependent regulation. SMc00877 was expressed only in growing cells in the presence of replete nutrients. Therefore, we renamed it NurR (nutrient sensitive LuxR-like regulator). We traced this nutrient-sensitive expression to transcription control by the DNA replication initiation factor, DnaA, which is essential for growth. These results indicate that NurR has a role in modulating the threshold of QS activation according to growth. We propose growth behavior as an additional prerequisite to population density for the activation of QS in S. meliloti.
