Transcriptomic profiling of representative anti-sigma factor deletion mutants in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1

ABSTRACT: Sigma and anti-sigma factor systems enable bacteria to rapidly remodel transcriptional programs in response to environmental changes. Pseudomonas aeruginosa relies on these regulatory modules to coordinate diverse physiological states, including motility, biofilm formation, secondary metabolism and virulence-associated behaviors. In this study, RNA sequencing was performed to characterize transcriptional changes caused by representative anti-sigma factor deletions in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Transcriptomic analysis of ΔPA1774, ΔflgM (PA3351) and ΔfiuR (PA0471) mutants revealed distinct regulatory states associated with SigX, FliA and FiuI pathway activation. These data provide insights into how anti-sigma factor perturbation reshapes sigma-dependent transcriptional programs and contributes to adaptive-state transitions in P. aeruginosa.

SigX ECF sigma factor deletion mutant expression profile in Pseudomonas aeruginosa in M9 minimal medium (M9G)

SigX ECF sigma factor deletion mutant expression profile in Pseudomonas aeruginosa in M9 minimal medium (M9G)

Project description:Analysis of a SigX knockout mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa H103 strain in minimal medium with glucose as carbon source (M9G). SigX, one of the 19 extra-cytoplasmic function sigma factors of P. aeruginosa, was only known to be involved in transcription of the gene encoding the major outer membrane protein OprF in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Deletion of the ECF sigma factor sigX gene provide insights into the SigX role in several virulence and biofilm- related phenotypes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To better understand the cellular function of SigX, a deletion mutant of the sigX gene (PAOSX) was generated and its expression profile was compared with parental strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa H103. To this end, H103 and a sigX mutant were cultured in M9G, in which their growth are similar. Three independant biological replicate were taken for the RNA extraction and hybridization on affymetrix array in the middle of the exponential growth phase.

The temperature-regulation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cmaX-cfrX-cmpX operon reveals an intriguing molecular network involving the sigma factors AlgU and SigX

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a highly adaptable Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen, notablydue to its large number of transcription regulators. The extracytoplasmic sigma factor (ECF sigma AlgU, responsible for alginate biosynthesis, is also involved in responses to cell wall stress and heat shock via the RpoH alternative sigma factor. The SigX ECF sigma emerged as a major regulator involved in the envelope stress response via membrane remodelling, virulence and biofilm formation. However, their functional interactions to coordinate the envelope homeostasis in response to environmental variations remain to be determined. The regulation of the putative cmaX-cfrX-cmpX operon located directly upstream sigX was investigated by applying sudden temperature shifts from 37°C. We identified a SigX- and an AlgU- dependent promoter region upstream of cfrX and cmaX, respectively. We show that cmaX expression is increased upon heat shock through an AlgU-dependent but RpoH independent mechanism. In addition, the ECF sigma SigX is activated in response to valinomycin, an agent altering the membrane structure, and up-regulates cfrX-cmpX transcription in response to cold shock. Altogether, these data provide new insights into the regulation exerted by SigX and networks that are involved in maintaining envelope homeostasis.

Genome-wide transcriptional regulation by the flagellar sigma factor FliA in Pseudomonas putida

Project description:The sigma factor FliA (σ28) has been described to activate the expression of several chemoreceptor-encoding genes and the late flagellar genes in Pseudomonas putida, enabling synthesis of the filament, an stator complex and completion of the flagella-associated chemotaxis machinery. The activity of FliA is repressed in the cytoplasm by the anti-sigma factor FlgM upon completion of the flagellar hook. In this study we aim to identify genome-wide targets of regulation by FliA in P. putida KT2442 (a spontaneous rifampicin-resistant mutant of the reference strain KT2440) by performing RNA-seq experiments using a fliA deletion mutant and a constitutively active strain that combines the deletion of flgM with ectopic production of FliA.

Identification of the alternative sigma factor SigX regulon and its implications for Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenicity

Project description:We analyzed a deletion mutant of the ECF σ factor SigX and applied mRNA profiling to define the SigX dependent regulon in P. aeruginosa in response to low osmolarity medium conditions. Furthermore, the combination of transcriptional data with chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) followed by high-throughput sequencing led to the identification of the DNA binding motif of SigX. Genome-wide mapping of SigX-binding regions revealed enrichment of downstream genes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis, type III secretion, swarming and c-di-GMP signaling. In accordance, a sigX deletion mutant exhibited an altered fatty acid composition of the cell membrane, reduced cytotoxicity, impaired swarming activity, elevated c-di-GMP levels and increased biofilm formation. In conclusion, a combination of ChIP-seq with transcriptional profiling and bioinformatic approaches to define consensus DNA binding sequences proved to be effective for the elucidation of the regulon of the alternative σ factor SigX revealing its role in complex virulence-associated phenotypes in P. aeruginosa.

A novel extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor regulates virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:Next to the two-component and quorum sensing systems, cell-surface signaling (CSS) has been recently identified as an important regulatory system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. CSS senses signals from outside the cell and transmits them into the cytoplasm. It consists of a TonB-dependent outer membrane receptor, a cytoplasmic membrane-localized sigma factor regulator (or anti-sigma factor), and an extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor. Upon perception of the extracellular signal by the receptor the ECF sigma factor is activated and promotes the transcription of a specific set of gene(s). Although most P. aeruginosa ECF sigma factors are involved in the regulation of iron uptake, we have identified a novel ECF sigma factor (PA0675) involved in the regulation of virulence. By microarray analysis of cells overexpressing PA0675 from the pMUM3 plasmid we have identified the genes regulated by this sigma factor.
