Fosfomycin uptake in Escherichia coli is mediated by the outer membrane porins OmpF, OmpC and LamB

ABSTRACT: The antibiotic fosfomycin is widely recognized for treatment of lower urinary tract infections caused by Escherichia coli and lately gained importance as a therapeutic option to combat multidrug resistant bacteria. Still, resistance to fosfomycin frequently develops through mutations reducing its uptake. Whereas the inner membrane transport of fosfomycin has been extensively studied in E. coli, its outer membrane (OM) transport remains insufficiently understood. While evaluating minimal inhibitory concentrations in OM porin-deficient mutants, we observed that the E. coli ΔompCΔompF strain is five times more resistant to fosfomycin than the wild type and the respective single mutants. Continuous monitoring of cell lysis of porin-deficient strains in response to fosfomycin additionally indicated the relevance of LamB. Furthermore, the physiological relevance of OmpF, OmpC and LamB for fosfomycin uptake was confirmed by electrophysiological and transcriptional analysis. This study expands the knowledge of how fosfomycin crosses the OM of E. coli.

Staphylococcus aureus treated with fosfomycin

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a highly adaptable human pathogen; therefore a constant search for new effective antibiotic compounds is being preformed. Gene expression profiling can be used to determine potential targets and mechanisms of action (MOA) of known or potential drugs. The goal of our study was a development of a focused transcriptome platform to be used for confirming the MOA of new chemical entities which are designed as inhibitors of Mur ligases. A model transcriptional profile was set up for well described inhibitor of MurA ligase, fosfomycin. Moreover, we wanted to identify the pathways and processes primarily affected by this compound. S. aureus ATCC 29213 cells were treated with low concentrations of fosfomycin (1 and 4 Âµg/ml, respectively) and harvested at 10, 20 and 40 minutes after treatment, respectively. RNA was isolated, transcribed, labeled and hybridized to S. aureus GeneChips, representing approximately 3000 S. aureus genes. Using meta-analysis of our results and the results in the S. aureus microarray database, we have confirmed that fosfomycin induces âcell wall stimulonâ genes and were able to identify genes and pathways specifically modulated by fosfomycin. Time course, different fosfomycin concentration

Phenotypic convergent evolution towards fosfomycin collateral sensitivity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa antibiotic resistant mutants

Project description:In this work we describe a robust fosfomycin collateral sensitivity phenotype of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant mutants selected by antibiotics from different structural families. The underlying mechanism was the reduced expression of the genes encoding the peptidoglycan-recycling pathway, which preserves the peptidoglycan synthesis in situations where the de novo synthesis is blocked, and of fosA, encoding a fosfomycin-inactivating enzyme.

Effects of fosfomycin on biofilm of a clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolated from osteoarticular infection by transcriptomal approach

Project description:The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanisms by which fosfomycin restrains biofilm formation and affects a 24h-old biofilm of S. aureus. RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) technology was used to compare the transcriptomes of S. aureus biofilms formed or treated with sublethal concentrations of fosfomycin.

Determinants of heat resistance in Escherichia coli AW1.7

Project description:Microarray hybridization of cDNA libraries obtained from exponentially growing or heat-shocked AW1.7 or GGG10 cultures was performed to compare gene expression of these two strains. Expression of selected genes from different functional groups was quantified by quantitative PCR (q-PCR). DnaK, 30S and 50S risobomal subunits were overexpressed in E. coli GGG10 relative to E. coli AW1.7 upon heat shock at 50°C, indicating improved ribosome stability. The outer membrane porin NmpC and several transport proteins were overexpressed in exponentially growing E. coli AW1.7.
