The lack of the TetR-like repressor gene BCG_2177c (Rv2160A) may help mycobacteria overcome intracellular redox stress and survive longer inside macrophages when surrounded by a lipid environment

ABSTRACT: We analyzed the genes expressed, or the transcriptome, of bacilli Mycobacterium bovis BCG Pasteur (wtBCG) and a mutant strain obtained by transposition of the gene BCG_ BCG_2177c (mtBCG), cultured in the presence of a lipid mixture (fatty acids/cholesterol) as main carbon source. Using RNAseq we identified a group of genes that provides novel insight regarding the metabolic pathways and transcriptional regulation, and pathogenic features that were influenced by BCG_2177c gene, a TetR-like repressor, during the lipid metabolism in slow-growing mycobacteria that could be extrapolated to other members of the MTBC.

A novel TetR-like transcriptional regulator is induced in acid-nitrosative stress and controls expression of an efflux pump in mycobacteria

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis has the ability to survive inside macrophages under acid-nitrosative stress. M. tuberculosis Rv1685c and its orthologue in M. smegmatis, MSMEG_3765, are induced on exposure to acid-nitrosative stress. Both genes are annotated as TetR transcriptional regulators, a family of proteins that regulate a wide range of cellular activities, including multidrug resistance, carbon catabolism and virulence. Here we demonstrate that MSMEG_3765 is co-transcribed with the upstream genes MSMEG_3762 and MSMEG_3763, encoding efflux pump components. RTq-PCR and GFP-reporter assays showed that the MSMEG_3762/63/65 gene cluster, and the orthologous region in M. tuberculosis (Rv1687c/86c/85c), was up-regulated in a MSMEG_3765 null mutant, suggesting that MSMEG_3765 acts as a repressor, typical of this family of regulators. We further defined the MSMEG_3765 regulon using genome-wide transcriptional profiling and confirmed that the MSMEG_3762/63/65 promoter is induced under acid-nitrosative stress. A putative 36 bp regulatory motif was identified upstream of the gene clusters in both M. smegmatis and M. tuberculosis and purified recombinant MSMEG_3765 protein was found to bind to DNA fragments containing this motif from both M. smegmatis and M. tuberculosis upstream regulatory regions. These results suggest that the TetR repressor MSMEG_3765/Rv1685c controls expression of an efflux pump with an, as yet, undefined role in the mycobacterial response to acid-nitrosative stress.

Effect of TetR family regulator SAOUHSC_02897 deletion in S. aureus NCTC8325

Project description:To analyze function of TetR family regulator SAOUHSC_02897, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling to identify genes transcription changed in respective mutant strains. Target SAOUHSC_02897 was replaced by ermB gene. Bacteria grown in the wells of biofilm formation at 12 hours, and the RNA level of wild type NCTC8325 and SAOUHSC-02897 mutant were compared.

Functional characterization of TetR-like transcriptional regulator PA3973 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa [RNA-seq]

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a human opportunistic pathogen, is a common cause of nosocomial infections. Its ability to survive under different conditions relies on a complex regulatory network engaging transcriptional regulators controlling metabolic pathways and capabilities to efficiently use the available resources. P. aeruginosa PA3973 encodes a putative TetR family transcriptional regulator, with a helix-turn-helix motif involved in DNA binding. We applied transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq), and genome-wide identification of binding sites using ChIP-seq to unravel the biological role of PA3973.

Functional characterization of TetR-like transcriptional regulator PA3973 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA3973 encodes a putative TetR family transcriptional regulator, with a helix-turn-helix motif involved in DNA binding. We applied phenotype analyses, as well as transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq), and genome-wide identification of binding sites using ChIP-seq to unravel the biological role of PA3973. The ChIP-seq analysis identified more than 300 PA3973 binding sites in the P. aeruginosa genome, among them 139 were located in intergenic regions. The 13 bp sequence was identified as the preferential binding site of PA3973. The PA3973 regulon encompasses genes involved in stress response, including the putative PA3973-PA3970 operon. Transcriptional profiling of P. aeruginosa PAO1161 overexpressing PA3973 showed changes in the mRNA level of 648 genes; among them, 374 were down-regulated. Concomitantly, ChIP-seq analysis identified more than 300 PA3973 binding sites in the P. aeruginosa genome, among them 139 were located in intergenic regions. The 13 bp sequence was identified as the preferential binding site of PA3973.

A novel TetR-like transcriptional regulator in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is involved in fatty acid metabolism, including quorum sensing signal turnover

Project description:Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging opportunistic multidrug-resistant pathogen frequently co-isolated with other relevant nosocomial pathogens in respiratory tract infections. S. maltophilia uses the endogenous DSF quorum sensing (QS) system to regulate virulence processes but can also respond to exogenous AHL signals produced by neighboring bacteria. A whole-transcriptome sequencing analysis was performed for S. maltophilia strain K279a in the exponential and stationary phases and in exponential cultures after a treatment with exogenous DSF or AHLs. Among the common top upregulated genes, the putative TetR-like regulator Smlt2053 was selected for functional characterization. This regulator was found to sense long-chain fatty acids, including the QS signal DSF, and activate a β-oxidation catabolic pathway.
