A trade-off for maintenance of multidrug-resistance IncHI2 plasmids in Salmonella Typhimurium through co-evolution

ABSTRACT: Plasmid maintenance costs to bacterial hosts is closely linked to the mechanisms that underlie plasmid fitness and how these costs are resolved. Herein, we performed multiple (63) serial passage to explore the compensatory mechanisms of co-evolution of multidrug-resistant IncHI2 plasmid pJXP9 and S. Typhimurium strain ATCC 14028 with or without antibiotic selection. pJXP9 could be maintained at for hundreds of generations even without drug exposure. Decreased lag times and higher competitive advantages were observed in end-point evolved strains bearing pJXP9 compared to ancestral strains. Genomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed that the fitness costs of pJXP9 in ATCC 14028 were derived from not only specific plasmid genes, particularly the multidrug-resistant region and conjugation transfer region I, but also the conflicts resulting from chromosomal gene interactions. Correspondingly, plasmid-borne deletions of these regions could compensate the fitness cost due to the presence of the plasmid. Furthermore, mutations and mRNA alterations in chromosomal genes involved in physiological functions were also adaptative. These functions included decreased flagellar motility, oxidative stress resistance and fumaric acid synthesis, and increased Cu resistance. Our findings suggest that plasmid maintenance through plasmid-bacteria co-evolution is a trade-off between increasing plasmid vertical transmission and impairing its horizontal transmission and bacterial physiological phenotypes.

Transcription profiling of Salmonella enterica serotype SL1344 wildtype, pSf-R27sfh and pSf-R27 at stationary and exponential growth phases, to investigate the role of the Sfh protein encoded by transmissible plasmids and involved in human typhoid

Project description:The Sfh protein is encoded by self-transmissible plasmids involved in human typhoid and is closely related to the global regulator H-NS. We have found that Sfh provides a stealth function that allows the plasmids to be transmitted to new bacterial hosts with minimal effects on their fitness. Introducing the plasmid without the sfh gene imposes a mild H-NS- phenotype and a severe loss of fitness due to titration of the cellular pool of H-NS by the A+T-rich plasmid. This stealth strategy seems to be used widely to aid horizontal DNA transmission and has important implications for bacterial evolution.

Iron acquisition system and cell shape of host bacteria commonly respond to the carriage of three plasmids belonging to different incompatibility groups.

Project description:Plasmids are one of the important mobile genetic elements in bacterial evolution. In this study, to evaluate the generality of the impact of plasmid carriage on host cell between different plasmids, we compared the response of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 to harboring three natural plasmids; RP4 (IncP-1, multidrug resistance, 60,099-bp), pCAR1 (IncP-7, carbazole-degradative, 200,231-bp) and NAH7 (IncP-9, naphthalene-degradative, 82,232-bp). We prepared two sets of plasmid-harboring strains from independent conjugation events to elucidate the reproducibility of the impact of the plasmid carriage. As results, the fitness was reduced by the carriage of RP4 and pCAR1 in liquid medium, while it was unaffected or even improved for NAH7-harboring strains. RP4-harboring KT2440 formed smaller colonies than the plasmid-free strain on solid medium (1.6% agar). The host cells were elongated by the carriage of the all plasmids, respectively. Copy number determination by quantitative PCR showed that the amount of each plasmid DNA in the host cell did not differed drastically. Whole genome resequencing showed that 13 SNPs (RP4), 24 SNPs (pCAR1) and 5 SNPs (NAH7) were the total differences between the two substrains for each plasmid-harboring strains. Transcriptome analyses showed that the impact of plasmid carriage was constantly larger in RP4-harboring strain than the other two plasmid-harboring strains. Genes involved in metal acquisition and metabolism were commonly affected by the carriage of the three plasmid. Indeed, plasmid-harboring strains showed greater growth inhibition than plasmid-free strains under iron-limiting condition. This feature could become future target to control plasmid spreading.

RNA m6A methylation suppresses insect juvenile hormone degradation to minimize fitness costs in response to a pathogenic attack

Project description:Bioinsecticides and transgenic crops based on the bacterial pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) can effectively control diverse agricultural insect pests, nevertheless, insect resistance evolution without causing obvious fitness costs has seriously eroded the sustainable use of these Bt products. Recently, we have discovered that an increased titer of juvenile hormone (JH) favors an insect host (Plutella xylostella) to enhance fitness whilst resisting the Bt pathogen, however, the underlying regulatory mechanisms of the increased JH titer is obscure. Here, we define the involvement of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification in modulating the availability of JH in this process. Specifically, we found that two m6A methyltransferase subunit genes, PxMettl3 and PxMettl14, repressed the expression of a key JH-degrading enzyme JH esterase (JHE) to induce an increased JH titer, mitigating the fitness costs associated with a robust defense against the Bt pathogen. This study identifies an as-yet uncharacterized m6A-mediated epigenetic regulator of insect hormones for maintaining fitness during pathogen defense and unveils an emerging Bt resistance-related m6A methylation atlas in insects, which further expands the functional landscape of m6A modification and showcases the pivotal role of epigenetic regulation in host-pathogen interactions.

Comparative genome hybridization for Lactobacillus casei

Project description:Lactobacillus casei is remarkably adaptive to diverse habitats. To understand the evolution and adaptation of Lb. casei strains isolated from different environments, the gene content of 22 Lb. casei strains isolated from various habitats (cheeses, n=8; plant materials, n=8; and human sources, n=6) were examined by comparative genome hybridization with an Lb. casei ATCC 334-based microarray. Comparative genome hybridization was performed against an Affymetrix custom microarray designed to include 2,661 (97%) chromosomal and 17 (85%) plasmid CDSs predicted to occur in Lb. casei ATCC 334, as well as all predicted CDSs in the draft Lb. helveticus CNRZ 32 genome. CDSs that were not included in the microarray design were all transposase-encoding genes.

Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC14028 fimZ mutant

Project description:Fimbriae are hair-like structures present on the outer membrane of many Enterobacteriaceae and such appendages are proposed to play a significant role in the attachment of the bacteria to host cells and tissues. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium has the potential to produce 13 different fimbrial types, among which type 1 fimbriae is the most common found. Expression of type 1 fimbriae is cooperatively controlled by fimZ, fimY, stm0551, fimW, and fimU within the fim gene cluster. FimZ belongs to the response regulator of the two-component regulatory system in bacteria and functions as a DNA binding protein. FimZ is a positive regulator for type 1 fimbrial expression in S. Typhimurium. A fimZ mutant in ATCC 14028 strain constructed by allelic exchange did not produce type 1 fimbriae. Total RNA was extracted from the parental ATCC 14028 and its fimZ mutant cultured in static broth and analyzed by hybridization to a S. Typhimurium LT2 DNA microarray. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that the type 1 fimbriae related genes, multidrug efflux protein gene acrF were down-regulated, whereas flagella associated genes, chemotaxis and virulence genes such as invF and invH genes were up-regulated in the fimZ mutant strain. It is possible that FimZ protein may play a role to interact with other genes besides regulating type 1 fimbriae.

Expression profiles of Drosophila melanogaster males with DX mothers and X-chromosomes that were subjected to male-limited evolution

Project description:Intralocus sexual conflict, where males and females have different fitness optima for the same trait, has been suggested to potentially be resolved by genomic imprinting, whereby expression in offspring is altered according to parent-of-origin. However, this idea has not yet been empirically tested. Here, we designed an experimental evolution protocol in Drosophila melanogaster which enabled us to look for imprinting effects on the X-chromosome. We enforced father-to-son transmission of the X-chromosome for many generations, and compared fitness and gene expression levels between control males, males with a control X-chromosome that had undergone one generation of father-son transmission (CDX), and males with an X-chromosome that had undergone many generations of father-son transmission (MLX). Although fitness differences were consistent with lowered fitness of males with a paternally inherited X-chromosome, expression differences suggested that this was due to deleterious maternal effects rather than imprinting. We conclude that imprinting is unlikely to resolve intralocus sexual conflict in Drosophila melanogaster. 18 samples were analyzed. There were 3 replicate populations within each of 3 treatments (Control, CDX, and MLX), and two males were analyzed from each population, for a total of 18 males.

The compact genome in the clavulanic acid producing Streptomyces strain unravels a variety of horizontal transfer reservoirs

Project description:Bacterial genomic plasticity and instability carry multiple functional genetic information in Streptomyces secondary metabolism. Our previously publication has reported an effective industrial Streptomyces strain, with a unique phenotype of the high clavulanic acid yield. The complete genome of strain F163-1 harboring a 136.9-kb giant region of plasticity (RGP) was sequenced. The chromosome and plasmid are densely packed by an exceptionally huge variety of potential secondary metabolic gene clusters, excluding production of putative antibiotics. Intriguingly, architecture and size differences of plasmid pSCL4 between F613-1 and ATCC 27064 suggest the pSCL4 plasmid evolving from pSCL4-like and pSCL2-like extrachromosomal replicons, in addition to the previously proposed ATCC 27064 mega-plasmid formation hypothesis through recombination between the smaller F613-1 pSCL4 plasmid arm regions and the linear chromosome. Comparative genomics systemically investigate secondary metabolism capacitates in this study indicates that frequent exchange of genetic materials between Streptomyces replicons may shape remarkable diversities of secondary metabolite repertoires. Consequently, the F613-1 strain seems to have evolved its specific genomic architectures and genetic patterns to meet the requirement in subsequent industrial processes.
