Project description:The planktonic versus biofilm gene expression arrays were performed in a/alpha cell types. Gene expression arrays were performed on planktonic vs biofilm cells grown in Spider medium at 37C. Normalized data is reported in matrix. Biofilm strains (48 hour biofilms) were compared to planktonic strains (log phase planktonic cells) in Spider medium at 37C.

Project description:Biofilm formation on medically implanted devices by Candida albicans poses a significant clinical challenge. Here we compared biofilm-associated gene expression in two clinical C. albicans isolates, SC5314 and WO-1, to identify shared gene regulatory responses that may be functionally relevant. Among the 50 genes most highly expressed in biofilms relative to planktonic (suspension-grown) cells, we were able to recover insertion mutations in 25 genes. We observed that 20 of the 25 mutants have altered biofilm-related properties, including cell-substrate adherence, cell-cell signaling, and azole susceptibility. We focused on the most highly up-regulated gene in biofilms, RHR2, which specifies the glycerol biosynthetic enzyme glycerol-3-phosphate phosphatase. Glycerol is 5-fold more abundant in biofilm cells than planktonic cells, and an rhr2D/D strain accumulates 2-fold less biofilm glycerol than the wild type. Under in vitro growth conditions, the rhr2D/D mutant has reduced biofilm biomass and reduced adherence to silicone. The rhr2D/D mutant is severely defective in biofilm formation in vivo, in a rat catheter infection model. Expression profiling of the rhr2D/D mutant indicates that it has reduced expression of cell surface adhesin genes ALS1, ALS3, and HWP1, as well as a large fraction of all other biofilm up-regulated genes. Reduced adhesin expression is the cause of the rhr2D/D mutant biofilm defect, because overexpression of ALS1, ALS3, or HWP1 restores biofilm formation ability to the mutant in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that internal glycerol has a regulatory role in biofilm gene expression, and that adhesin genes are among the main functional Rhr2-regulated genes.

Project description:In this work the effect of the hormone progesterone in the ability of C. albicans SC5314 to form biofilms was investigated as well as the transcriptomic response of the yeast to this compound. The analysis was performed always comparing the genomic expression of the biofilm cells cultivated in the presence and absence of progesterone with the transcriptome of planktonic cells (in mid-exponential phase) which was used to reference the analysis.

Project description:The goal was to identify genes that change their expression in biofilm vs. planktonic growth. Cultures for the extraction of total RNA under biofilm growth conditions were performed on biofilms grown on the bottom of 6-well polystyrene plates for 48 hours at 37°C and 200 rpm as previously described (Nobile et al. 2012). The media used was Spider 1% glucose, Spider and RPMI 1% glucose. Planktonic cultures for total RNA were grown in the same media by inoculating with cells from an overnight 30°C YPD culture to an OD600 of 0.05. Cultures were then grown in flasks at 37°C with shaking at 225 rpm until they reached an OD600 of 1.0.

Project description:The global extracellular protease substrate specificity of C. albicans under biofilm and planktonic (suspension) conditions was determined with a synthetic library of 14-mer peptide substrates using an approach termed Multiplex Substrate Profiling by Mass Spectrometry (MSP-MS). Shotgun proteomics analysis on conditioned media from C. albicans grown under biofilm and planktonic conditions was performed to identify the corresponding proteases.
