Project description:Acetylation of lysine residues is conserved in all three kingdoms; however, its role in prokaryotes is unknown. Here we demonstrate that acetylation enables the reference bacterium Escherichia coli to withstand environmental stress. Specifically, the bacterium reaches higher cell densities and becomes more resistant to heat and oxidative stress when its proteins are acetylated, as shown by deletion of the gene encoding acetyltransferase YfiQ and the gene encoding deacetylase CobB, as well as by overproducing YfiQ and CobB. Furthermore, we show that the increase in oxidative stress resistance with acetylation is due to the induction of catalase activity through enhanced katG expression. We also found that two-component system proteins CpxA, PhoP, UvrY, and BasR are associated with cell catalase activity and may be responsible as the connection between bacterial acetylation and the stress response. This is the first demonstration of a specific environmental role of acetylation in prokaryotes. Overnight cultures of cobB/pCA24N-cobB and cobB/pCA24N were cultured to a turbidity of 0.05 at 600 nm and grown 2 h. Then, 0.1 mM IPTG was added for another 4 h to induce cobB expression, and then the cells were exposed to 20 mM H2O2 for 10 min. Cell pellets were collected and resuspended in RNAlater (Ambion Inc., Austin, TX), and total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA). The E. coli GeneChip Genome 2.0 array (Affymetrix, P/N 900551) was used, and cDNA synthesis, fragmentation, and hybridizations were performed as described previously. If the gene with the larger transcription rate did not have a consistent transcription rate based on the 11-15 probe pairs (P-value less than 0.05), these genes were discarded. A gene was considered differentially expressed when the P-value for comparing two chips was lower than 0.05 (to assure that the change in gene expression was statistically significant and that false positives arise less than 5%) and if their fold change is higher than the standard deviation for the whole genome.

Project description:Salmonella causes a range of diseases in different hosts, including enterocolitis and systemic infection. Lysine acetylation regulates many eukaryotic cellular processes, but its function in prokaryotes is largely unknown. Reversible acetylation in Salmonella Typhimurium depends on acetyltransferase Pat and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase CobB. Here, we used cell and animal models to evaluate the virulence of pat and cobB deletion mutants in S. Typhimurium, and found that pat is essential for bacterial intestinal colonization, systemic infection and host inflammation response. Next, to understand the underlying mechanism, genome-wide transcriptome was analyzed. RNA-seq data showed the expression of Salmonella pathogenicity islands 1 (SPI-1) is partially dependent on pat. In addition, we found that HilD is a substrate of Pat, which is essential for maintaining HilD protein level. Taken together, these results suggested that protein acetylation system regulates SPI-1 expression by controlling HilD in a post-translational manner to mediate S. Typhimurium virulence. To use RNA-seq to analyze the transcriptome patterns of pat or cobB mutation in Salmonella Typhimurium 14028s.

Project description:Antitoxins are becoming recognized as proteins that regulate more than their own synthesis; for example, we found previously that antitoxin MqsA represses the gene encoding the stationary phase sigma factor RpoS. Here, we investigated the physiological role of antitoxin DinJ of the DinJ/YafQ toxin/antitoxin system and found DinJ also affects the general stress response by decreasing RpoS levels. Corroborating the reduced RpoS levels upon producing DinJ, catalase activity, cell adhesins, and cyclic diguanylate decreased while swimming increased. Using a transcriptome search and DNA-binding assays, we determined that the mechanism by which DinJ reduces RpoS is by repressing cspE which encodes cold-shock protein CspE that inhibits translation of rpoS mRNA. Hence, DinJ influences the general stress response indirectly by regulating cspE.

Project description:Although protein acetylation is widely observed, it has been associated with few specific regulatory functions making it poorly understood. To interrogate its functionality, we analyzed the acetylome in Escherichia coli knockout mutants of cobB, the only known sirtuin-like deacetylase, and patZ, the best-known protein acetyltransferase. For four growth conditions, more than 2,000 unique acetylated peptides, belonging to 809 proteins, were identified and differentially quantified. Nearly 65% of these proteins are related to metabolism. The global activity of CobB contributes to the deacetylation of a large number of substrates and has a major impact on physiology. Apart from the regulation of acetyl-CoA synthetase, we found that CobB-controlled acetylation of isocitrate lyase contributes to the fine-tuning of the glyoxylate shunt. Acetylation of the transcription factor RcsB prevents DNA binding, activating flagella biosynthesis and motility, and increases acid stress susceptibility. Surprisingly, deletion of patZ increased acetylation in acetate cultures, which suggests that it regulates the levels of acetylating agents. The results presented offer new insights into functional roles of protein acetylation in metabolic fitness and global cell regulation. In this study we aimed to discover how the deregulation of protein acetylation could alter physiology in E. coli. We observed that the deletion of both cobB or patZ genes in E. coli altered gene expression, specially those genes related with motility, chemotaxis and acid stress response. We used three biological replicates in this study and each condition. The control in these experiments was E. coli BW25113

Project description:Our comparative transcriptomic studies found that the cobB and yfiQ deletions resulted in differential expression of a large number of genes,we found 399 DEGs in the cobB mutant, among which 142 were down-regulated and 257 were up-regulated and there were 594 DEGs in the yfiQ mutant, among which 219 were down-regulated and 375 were up-regulated in comparison with the Yersinia pestis wild-type strain.Interestingly, expression of the virulence-related genes hmsHFRS, psaABEF were significantly lower in both ΔcobB and ΔyfiQ. Moreover, the stress response-related genes involved in the heat- and cold-shock response, acid resistance, and the universal stress response were significantly differentially expressed.most of these genes were expressed at significantly lower levels than in the wild-type strain.The mouse infection experiments and the phenotype analysis confirmedthe virulence attenuation of ΔcobB and ΔyfiQ. Our results demonstrate that protein acetylation mediated by YfiQ and CobB is involved in the virulence and stress.
