Project description:To investigate the whole-genome gene expression difference between the wild-type and capsule deletion mutant in Klebsiella pneumoniae MGH 78578. The mutants analyzed in this study are further described in Huang T.W., Stapleton J.C., Chang H.Y., Tsai S.F., Palsson B.O., Charusanti P. Capsule removal via lambda-Red knockout system perturbs biofilm formation and fimbriae extression in Klesiella pneumoniae MGH 78578 (manuscript submission) A six chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate wild-type cultures and three separate cultures of a capsule deltion mutant of Klebsiella pneumoniae MGH 78578. The capsule gene cluster (KPN_02493 to KPN_02515) was entirely removed in the capsule deletion mutant. Each chip measures the expression level of 5,305 genes from Klebsiella pneumoniae MGH 78578 and the associated five plasmids (pKPN3, pKPN4, pKPN5, pKPN6 and pKPN7) with 50-mer oligo tiling array with 30-mer spacer.

Project description:The emergence of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) strains poses a significant threat to public health due to their high mortality rates and propensity to cause severe community-acquired infections in otherwise healthy individuals. The ability of hvKP to form biofilms and produce a protective capsule contributes to its enhanced virulence and is a significant challenge to effective antibiotic treatment. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying hvKP virulence and biofilm formation is crucial for developing new therapeutic strategies. Polyphosphate Kinase 1 (PPK1) is an enzyme responsible for inorganic polyphosphate synthesis and plays a vital role in regulating various physiological processes in bacteria. In this study, we investigated the impact of polyP metabolism on the biofilm and capsule formation and virulence traits in hvKP using Dictyostelium discoideum amoeba as a model host. We found that the PPK1 null-mutant was impaired in biofilm and capsule formation and showed attenuated virulence in D. discoideum compared to the wild-type strain. We performed a shotgun proteomic analysis of the PPK1 mutant and wild-type strain to gain further insight into the underlying molecular mechanism. The results revealed that the PPK1 mutant had a differential expression of proteins (DEP) involved in capsule synthesis (Wzi - Ugd), biofilm formation (MrkC-D-H), synthesis of the colibactin genotoxin precursor (ClbB), as well as proteins associated with the synthesis and modification of lipid A (ArnB -LpxC - PagP). These proteomic findings corroborate the phenotypic observations and indicate that the PPK1 mutation is associated with impaired biofilm and capsule formation and attenuated virulence in hypervirulent K. pneumoniae. Overall, our study highlights the importance of polyP synthesis in regulating extracellular biomolecules and virulence in K. pneumoniae and provides insights into potential therapeutic targets for treating K. pneumoniae infections.

Project description:Nutrient adaptation is key in limiting environments for the promotion of microbial growth and survival. In microbial systems, zinc is an important component for many cellular processes and bioavailability varies greatly among different conditions. In the bacterium, Klebsiella pneumoniae, the impact of zinc limitation has not been explored at the protein level. Here, we apply a mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics strategy to profile the global impact of zinc limitation on the cellular proteome and extracellular environment (secretome) of K. pneumoniae. Our data defines the impact of zinc on proteins involved in transcriptional regulation and emphasizes the modulation of a vast array of proteins associated with zinc acquisition, transport, and binding. We also identify proteins in the extracellular environment associated with conventional and nonconventional modes of secretion. In particular, we focus on the impact of zinc on an uncharacterized cation transporter and the role of the ChaB transporter in influencing bacterial growth, capsule production, nad virulence. Moreover, we validate our results through transcriptional profiling of genes reprsessed under high abudnance of a histidine repression operon, hutC. Overall, we provide evidence of novel connections between zinc availability and capsule production in a bacterial system and define new roles for a transporter.

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae is an arising threat to human health. However, host immune responses in response to this bacterium remain to be elucidated. The goal of this study was to identify the dominant host immune responses associated with Klebsiella pneumoniae pulmonary infection. Pulmonary mRNA profiles of 6-8-weeks-old BALB/c mice infected with/without Klebsiella pneumoniae were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Novaseq 6000. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Using KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) analysis, we identified several immune associated pathways, including complement and coagulation cascades, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, Rap1 signaling pathway, chemokine signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, phagosome and NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, were involved in Klebsiella pneumoniae pulmonary infection. Using ICEPOP (Immune CEll POPulation) analysis, we found that several cell types were involved in the host immune response to Klebsiella pneumoniae pulmonary infection, including dendritic cells, macrophages, monocytes, NK (natural killer) cells, stromal cells. Further, IL-17 chemokines were significantly increased during Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. This study provided evidence for further studying the pathogenic mechanism of Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia infection.
