Project description:In Caenorhabditis elegans, the six proteins that make up the REF-1 family are HES homologs that act in both Notch dependent and Notch-independent pathways to regulate embryonic events. To further our understanding of how the REF-1 family works to coordinate post-embryonic cellular events, we performed transcriptome analysis of HLH-25 and HLH-29 mutant strains. Gene expression microarray, including probe preparation, hybridization, fluidics run and chip scan, was performed by Georgia State University DNA/Protein Core Facility. Global gene expression in synchronized young adult populations of VC1220 (hlh-25 mutant) and tm284 (hlh-29 mutant) animals were compared to expression in N2 (wild-type) animals using GeneChip C. elegans Genome Array (Affymetrix). Data collection was carried out using GCOS 1.4 software (Affymetrix). Probe intensity values were normalized to a target value of 500 with normalization factor equal to 1. Data analysis was performed using GeneSpring GX 11 Software (Aglient, Palo Alto,CA).

Project description:The hlh-30 gene encodes a C. elegans basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor; We compared RNA from wild type worms and worms mutant for the hlh-30 gene to identify putative target genes of the HLH-30 transcription factor. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA from three biological replicates were isolated from embryos, L1 larvae, and L2 larvae from both wild type and hlh-30(tm1978) mutant worms

Project description:E. faecium is inherantly resistant to cephalosporins. Resistance is lost in Class A penicillin binding protein PbfF PonA mutants, but is reversible by pencillin exposure. E. faecium Affymetrix GeneChips were used to compare E. faecium expression properties of pbfF ponA mutant cells in the absence or presence of penicillin exposure. Significant differences were observed between the expression properties of mock and penicillin treated E. faecium CV571 (pbfF ponA double mutant) cells.

Project description:The enterococci comprise a genus of 49 low-GC content Gram-positive commensal species within the Firmicutes phylum that are known to occupy diverse habitats, notably the gastrointestinal core microbiota of nearly every phylum, including human. Of particular clinical relevance are two rogue species of enterococci, Enterococcus faecalis and the distantly related Enterococcus faecium, standing among the nefarious multi-drug resistant and hospital-acquired pathogens. Despite increasing evidence for RNA-based regulation in the enterococci, including regulation of virulence factors, their transcriptome structure and arsenal of regulatory small sRNAs (sRNAs) are not thoroughly understood. Using dRNA-seq, we have mapped at single-nucleotide resolution the primary transcriptomes of E. faecalis V583 and E. faecium AUS0004. We identified 2517 and 2771 transcription start sites (TSS) in E. faecalis and E. faecium, respectively. Based on the identified TSS, we created a global map of s70 promoter motifs. We also revealed features of 5’ and 3’UTRs across the genomes. The transcriptome maps also predicted 150 and 128 sRNA candidates in E. faecalis and E. faecium, respectively, some of which have been identified in previous studies and many of which are new. Finally, we validated several of the predicted sRNAs by Northern Blot in biologically relevant conditions. Comprehensive TSS mapping of two representative strains will provide a valuable resource for the continued development of RNA biology in the Enterococci.

Project description:Enterococcus faecium has emerged as a major opportunistic pathogen for two decades, with the spread of hospital-adapted multidrug-resistant clones. Members of the intestinal microbiota, they are subjected to numerous bacterial stresses, including antibiotics at subinhibitory concentrations (SICs). Since fluoroquinolones are extensively prescribed, SICs are very likely to occur in vivo with potential effects on bacterial metabolism with subsequent modulation of opportunistic traits. The aim of the study was to evaluate globally the impact of subinhibitory concentrations (SICs) of ciprofloxacin on antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity of E. faecium. Transcriptomic analysis was performed by RNA-seq (HiSeq 2500, Illumina) using the vanB-positive reference strain E. faecium Aus0004 in the absence or presence of ciprofloxacin SIC (0.38 mg/L, i.e. MIC 1/8). Several genetic and phenotypic tests were used for validation. In the presence of ciprofloxacin SIC, 196 genes were significantly induced whereas 286 were significantly repressed, meaning that 16.8% of the E. faecium genome was altered. Amongst upregulated genes, EFAU004_02294 (fold change of 14.3) encoded a protein (EfmQnr) homologue of Qnr proteins involved in quinolone resistance in Gram-negative bacilli. Its implication in intrinsic and adaptive FQ resistance in E. faecium was experimentally ascertained. Moreover, EFAU004_02292 coding for the collagen adhesin Acm was also induced by SIC of ciprofloxacin (fold change of 8.2), and higher adhesion capabilities were demonstrated phenotypically. Both Efmqnr and Acm determinants may play an important role in the transition from a commensal to a pathogenic state of E. faecium that resides in the gut of patients receiving a fluoroquinolone therapy.

Project description:A set of small RNAs was identified in Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, a leading cause of MDR infections. We described here the function of srn_2050, acting as a T-box riboswitch to regulate expression of downstream genes encoding the HisRS and AspRS aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. Comparative RNAseq between Aus0004 and isogenic srn_2050 mutant identified the genes whose expression is impacted by the RNA. srn_2050 structure in its ‘off state’ was deciphered by in-line probing, containing T-box consensus sequences, a pseudoknot, a specifier loop and a terminator. Transcription binding assays between the riboswitch and either tRNAAsp or tRNAHis indicate that each deacylated tRNA interacts with the T-box. Their anticodons bind to a GACAC sequence within the specifier loop (GAC and CAC are Asp and His codons, respectively), whereas tRNATyr (UA/C-U) does not. A pioneering evaluation of E. faecium amino acid auxotrophy, with emphasis on E. faecium strain Aus0004, revealed auxotrophy for Histidine but not for Aspartic acid. Based on comparative growths and RNAseq between Aus004 and Aus004-srn2050, the riboswitch is shown essential for growth under aspartate starvation. This is the first example of a functional riboswitch in E. faecium with two overlapping codons allowing a dual tRNA-dependent regulation at transcriptional level.

Project description:Purpose: Comparing the transcriptome of wild-type(N2), hlh-11 knock-out and hlh-11 over-expression worms to identify genes with differential expression. Methods: For each condition, two replicates were examined. For each sample, approximately 2,000 synchronized young adult worms were collected and resuspended in TRIzon Reagent (CW0580, CWBIO). Total RNA was isolated by chloroform extraction, followed by isopropanol precipitation. Sequencing was performed using HiSeq2500. The clean reads were aligned to WBcel235 genomes with TopHat2. Gene differential expression was analyzed using DEseq2. A threshold of p < 0.05 was set to determine differentially expressed genes. Induction (KO_up or OE_up) or suppression (KO_down or OE_down) of genes were obtained through comparing gene expressions in hlh-11 KO or OE worms to wild-type N2. Results: >86% reads were uniquely mapped. 2637 genes were significantly up regulated and 2845 genes were significantly down regulated in hlh-11 knock-out worms compared to wild-type. 107 genes were significantly up regulated and 237 genes were significantly down regulated in hlh-11 over-expression worms compared to wild-type. Conclusions: This study revealed the genes transcriptionally regulated by hlh-11.
