The conserved transcriptional regulator CdnL is required for metabolic homeostasis and morphogenesis in Caulobacter

ABSTRACT: Bacterial growth and division require regulated synthesis of the macromolecules used to expand and replicate components of the cell. Transcription of housekeeping genes required for metabolic homeostasis and cell proliferation is guided by the sigma factor σ70. The conserved CarD-like transcriptional regulator, CdnL, associates with promoter regions where σ70 localizes and stabilizes the open promoter complex. However, the contributions of CdnL to metabolic homeostasis and bacterial physiology are not well understood. Here, we show that Caulobacter crescentus cells lacking CdnL have severe morphological and growth defects. Specifically, ∆cdnL cells grow slowly in both rich and defined media, and are wider, more curved, and have shorter stalks than WT cells. These defects arise from transcriptional downregulation of most major classes of biosynthetic genes, leading to significant decreases in the levels of critical metabolites, including pyruvate, -ketoglutarate, ATP, NAD+, UDP-N-acetyl-glucosamine, lipid II, and purine and pyrimidine precursors. Notably, we find that ∆cdnL cells are glutamate auxotrophs, and ∆cdnL is synthetic lethal with other genetic perturbations that limit glutamate synthesis and lipid II production. Our findings implicate CdnL as a direct and indirect regulator of genes required for metabolic homeostasis that impacts morphogenesis through availability of lipid II and other metabolites.

Mitochondrial-derived glutamate dictates resistance to pathogen infection through vitamin-dependent metabolic remodeling

Project description:The functional integration of innate immune and metabolic signaling responses represents an ancient strategy to manage infections in metazoans. Using Drosophila, we uncovered that immune-metabolic sensing in muscle dictates resistance to enteric bacterial infection through vitamins dependent metabolic remodeling. Within muscle, the activation strength of systemic innate immune signaling, integrated with mitochondrial-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (Gdh) function, conditions lipid mobilization from adipose. Mild intramuscular IMD/innate immune signaling activity allows for infection-mediated increases in mitochondrial biogenesis/function, which further stimulates mitochondria/Gdh-dependent synthesis of glutamate. Intramuscular derived glutamate acts as a systemic metabolite to influence lipid mobilization through altering vitamin metabolism. This lipid mobilization improves bacterial clearance and boost infection resistance. Conversely, elevated activation of IMD/innate immune signaling in muscle impedes infection-mediated increases in mitochondrial biogenesis/function and subsequent metabolic remodeling. Finally, life history traits that fine-tune intramuscular mitochondrial dynamics consequently influence infection resistance and shape phenotypic diversity of infection responses within populations.

Wild-type and SeMeCo yeast proteomes with microFlow-SWATH & DIANN

Project description:Proteomic analysis of FACS-sorted and unsorted auxotrophic amd prototrophic subpopulations inSelf-establishing metabolically cooperating (SeMeCo) and control wild-type yeast communities. Microbial communities are composed of cells of varying metabolic capacity and regularly include auxotrophs; cells that lack essential metabolic pathways. By analysing auxotrophs for amino acid biosynthesis pathways in microbiome data microbiome data derived from over 12,000 natural microbial communities obtained as part of the Earth Microbiome Project (EMP), and studying auxotrophic-prototrophic interactions in self-establishing metabolically cooperating yeast communities (SeMeCos), we reveal a metabolically imprinted mechanism that links the presence of auxotrophs to an increase in metabolic interactions and gains in antimicrobial drug tolerance. As a consequence of the metabolic adaptations necessary to uptake specific metabolites, auxotrophs obtain altered metabolic flux distributions, export more metabolites, and in this way metabolite-enrich the community environments. Moreover, the increased efflux activities reduce intracellular drug concentrations, allowing cells to grow in the presence of drug levels that are above the minimal inhibitory concentrations. For example, the antifungal action of azoles is greatly diminished in auxotrophs and prototrophs that uptake metabolites from a metabolically enriched environment. Our results hence show why cells are more robust to drug exposure when they interact metabolically.

Expression analysis of Caulobacter crescentus NA1000 bearing a CCNA_00690 (cdnL) deletion [dcdnL] vs Caulobacter crescentus NA1000 wild type [wt]

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in a Caulobacter crescentus NA1000 dcdnL mutant, compared to the wild-type strain. In bacteria, transcription of housekeeping genes required for metabolic homeostasis and cell proliferation is guided by the sigma factor σ70. The conserved CarD-like transcriptional regulator, CdnL, associates with promoter regions where σ70 localizes and stabilizes the open promoter complex. Caulobacter crescentus cells lacking CdnL have severe morphological and growth defects. Our microarray experiment demonstrates how cdnL deletion affects the transcriptome of Caulobacter crescentus.

Global Stable-isotope Tracing Metabolomics Reveals System-wide Metabolic Alternations in Aging Drosophila

Project description:System-wide metabolic homeostasis is crucial for maintaining physiological functions of living organisms. Stable-isotope tracing metabolomics allows to unravel metabolic activity quantitatively by measuring the isotopically labeled metabolites, but has been largely restricted by coverage. Yet, delineating system-wide metabolic homeostasis at the whole-organism level remains non-trivial. Here, we develop a global isotope tracing metabolomics technology to measure labeled metabolites with a metabolome-wide coverage. Using Drosophila as an aging model organism, we probe the in vivo tracing kinetics with quantitative information on labeling patterns, extents and rates on a metabolome-wide scale. We curate a system-wide metabolic network to characterize metabolic homeostasis and disclose a system-wide loss of metabolic coordinations that impacts both intra- and inter-tissue metabolic homeostasis significantly during Drosophila aging. Importantly, we reveal an unappreciated metabolic diversion from glycolysis to serine metabolism and purine metabolism as Drosophila aging. The developed technology facilitates a system-level understanding of metabolic regulation in living organisms.

ABCC5 functions as a transporter of glutamate conjugates and analogs

Project description:The ubiquitous efflux transporter ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 5 (ABCC5) is present at high levels in the blood-brain barrier, neurons and glia, but its in vivo substrates and function are not known. Untargeted metabolomic screens revealed that Abcc5-/- mice accumulate endogenous glutamate conjugates and analogs in several tissues, but brain in particular. The abundant neurotransmitter N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG), for example, was over 2-fold higher in Abcc5-/- brain. In line with ABCC5-mediated transport, the metabolites that accumulated in Abcc5-/- tissues were depleted in cultured cells that overexpressed human ABCC5. Using membrane vesicles, we show that ABCC5 not only transports the metabolites detected in our screen, but also a wide range of peptides containing a C-terminal glutamate. Glutamate conjugates are of physiological relevance because they can affect the function of glutamate, the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. We found that ABCC5 also transports exogenous glutamate analogs, like the classic excitotoxic neurotoxins kainic acid, domoic acid and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and the therapeutic glutamate analog ZJ43. Taken together, we have identified ABCC5 as a general glutamate conjugate and analog transporter that affects the disposition of endogenous metabolites, toxins and drugs.

Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Signatures of Prenatal Excessive Methionine in Mice Support Nature Rather than Nurture in the Pathogenesis and Therapy of Schizophrenia

Project description:Abstract: The imbalance of prenatal micronutrients may perturb one-carbon (C1) metabolism and increase the risk for neuropsychiatric disorders. Prenatal excessive methionine (MET) produces in mice behavioral phenotypes reminiscent of human schizophrenia. Whether in-utero programming or early life caregiving mediate these effects is, however, unknown. Here, we show that the behavioral deficits of MET are independent of the early life mother-infant interaction. We also show that MET produces in early life profound changes in the brain C1 pathway components as well as glutamate transmission, mitochondrial function, and lipid metabolism. Bioinformatics analysis integrating metabolomics and transcriptomic data reveal dysregulations of glutamate transmission and lipid metabolism, and identify perturbed pathways of methylation and redox reactions. Our transcriptomics Linkage analysis of MET mice and schizophrenia subjects reveals master genes involved in inflammation and myelination. Finally, we identify potential metabolites as early biomarkers for neurodevelopmental defects and suggest new therapeutic targets for schizophrenia.
