Transcriptome analysis of streptococus mutans UA159 and SMU_1995c knock out strain

ABSTRACT: Zinc is an essential divalent trace metal for living cells. Intracellular zinc homeostasis is critical to the pathogenicity and virulence of bacteria, however the strategies of zinc homeostasis maintain in Streptococcus mutans, an important causative pathogen of dental caries, is unknown. In this study, we examined the function of an ABC transporter AdcCBA and its transcription factor AdcR in S. mutans. Using RNA-Seq analysis, LacZ-reporter studies and gel mobility shift assay, we showed that a MarR family transcription factor AdcR directly regulates the activity of promoters of adcRCB and adcA in response to the concentration of zinc in their environmental niches. Deletion of adcR increases the sensitivity of S. mutans to excessive zinc supply. Taken together, our finding suggests that Adc regulon, consists of a zinc uptake transporter AdcCBA and a zinc-responsive repressor AdcR, plays a prominent role in the maintenance of intracellular zinc homeostasis of S. mutans.

The metalloregulatory site in Streptococcus pneumoniae AdcR, a zinc-activated MarR-family repressor

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 AdcR (adhesion competence repressor) is the first metal-sensing member of the MarR (multiple antibiotic resistance repressor) family to be characterized. Expression profiling of a âadcR strain grown in liquid culture under microaerobic conditions revealed that transcript amounts for 13 genes were up-regulated relative to the wild-type strain, among them adcR, adcCBA, encoding a high affinity ABC uptake system for zinc, and genes encoding cell-surface zinc-binding pneumococcal histidine triad (pht) and adcII (lmb, laminin binding) proteins. Down-regulated transcripts included those encoding two putative zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenases. Bacterial strains were grown exponentially in rich (BHI) media at 37C and an atmosphere of 5% CO2 to OD620~0.2, and were processed as described in the related Sample records. Samples were collected from three independent biological replicates and included one dye swap. Data were normalized using the Lowess (block) method without background subtraction. Changes in relative transcript amounts of positive or negative 2-fold with Bayesian P value of <0.001 were considered significant, and were included as supplementary material for the accompanying manuscript (The metalloregulatory site in Streptococcus pneumoniae AdcR, a zinc-activated MarR-family repressor; Reyes-Caballero, H. et al, manuscript in preparation).

Infection of macrophages with functional Slc11a1 yields differences in global gene expression, regulation of metal ions, and infection outcomes

Project description:Manipulation of zinc at the host-pathogen interface depends on both the identity of the pathogen and the nature of the host cell. In this study, we examine the response of bone marrow derived macrophages from 129S6/SvEvTac mice to infection by Salmonella Typhimurium. Unlike Balb/c and C57BL/6 mice, 129S6/SvEvTac mice possess a functional Slc11a1 (Nramp-1), a phagosomal transporter of divalent cations. We examine the changes in gene expression upon treatment with live or heat killed Salmonella at 2 Hrs and 18 Hrs post infection, and observed widespread changes in metal transport, metal-dependent, and metal homeostasis genes, suggesting significant remodeling of iron, copper, and zinc availability by host cells.

Transcriptional response of Streptococcus pneumoniae to Zn2+-limitation and the repressor/activator function of AdcR

Project description:Zinc (Zn2+) is an important trace metal ion that has been shown to regulate the expression of several (virulence) genes in streptococci. Previously, we analyzed the genome-wide response of S. pneumoniae to Zn2+-stress. In this work, we have performed a transcriptomic analysis to identify genes that are differentially expressed under intracellular Zn2+-limitation. This revealed a number of genes that are highly upregulated in the absence of extracellular Zn2+, amongst which the genes belonging to the regulon of the Zn2+-responsive repressor AdcR, like adcBCA, encoding a Zn2+-dependent ABC-uptake system, adcAII, encoding a Zn2+-binding lipoprotein, and also virulence genes belonging to the Pht family (phtA, phtB, phtD and phtE). Using transcriptome analysis, lacZ-reporter studies, in vitro DNA binding experiments, and in silico operator predictions, we show that AdcR directly represses the promoters of adcRCBA, adcAII-phtD, phtA, phtB and phtE in the presence of Zn2+. AdcR can also function as an activator, since in the presence of Zn2+ it directly induces expression of adh that encodes a Zn2+-containing alcohol dehydrogenase. In conclusion, the genome-wide transcriptional response of S. pneumoniae to Zn2+-limitation was established, which is mainly mediated via direct regulation by the Zn2+-dependent regulator AdcR. Two condition design comparison of Wild-type strain including a dye swap Refer to individual Series. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE29234: adcR mutant vs wild type D39 GSE29235: Low Zn vs high Zn in CDM
