Project description:We sequenced mRNA of three dual perturbation experiments of E. coli K12 MG1655 changing both genetic and environmental conditions. Each dual perturbation experiment consists of four RNA-seq samples (WT, WT+nutrient supplementation, transcription factor KO, transcription factor KO+nutrient supplementation). The three conditions are: 1) adenine supplementation/nac KO, 2) L-tryptophan supplementation/cra KO, 3) anaerobic/mntR KO. Determination of whether a transcription factor plays a regulatory role in a particular environmental shift by examining differential expression of mRNA levels.

Project description:We assessed changes in gene expression in response to manganese availability for the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Total RNA was harvested from wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 and an isogenic ΔmntR (dip0619) grown in semi-defined metal-limited media (mPGT) without or with 5 µM manganese chloride supplementation. Three biological replicates were prepared and five genes were assessed by real-time PCR to validate the array results: dip0124, dip0169, dip0615, dip1923, and dip2261. (Abstract) Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causative agent of a severe respiratory disease in humans. The bacterial systems required for infection are poorly understood, but the acquisition of metals such as manganese (Mn) are likely critical for host colonization. MntR is a Mn-dependent transcriptional regulator in C. diphtheriae and was previously shown to repress the expression of the mntABCD genes, which encode an ABC metal transporter. However, other targets of Mn and MntR regulation in C. diphtheriae have not been identified. In this study, we use comparisons between the gene expression profiles of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 grown without or with Mn supplementation and comparisons of gene expression between wild-type and an mntR mutant to characterize the C. diphtheriae Mn and MntR regulon. MntR was observed to both repress and induce the expression of various target genes in a Mn-dependent manner. Genes induced by MntR include the Mn-superoxide dismutase, sodA, and the putative ABC transporter locus, iutABCD. DNA binding studies showed that MntR interacts at the promoter regions for several genes identified in the expression study, and a 17-bp consensus MntR DNA binding site was identified. We found that an mntR mutant displayed increased sensitivity to Mn and Cd that could be alleviated by the additional deletion of the mntA-D transport locus, providing evidence that the MntABCD transporter functions as a Mn uptake system in C. diphtheriae. The findings in this study further our understanding of metal uptake systems and global metal regulatory networks in this important human pathogen.

Project description:The carbon metabolism in bacteria is regulated by two global TFs, CRP and Cra. While the regulon of CRP has been extensively studied, the complete definition of Cra has been missing. Thus, in vivo TF binding measurement with ChIP-exo and transcriptional expression measurement with RNA-seq for Cra was performed to define the Cra regulon.

Project description:A series of dual-channel gene expression profiles obtained using Rosetta/Agilent Whole Mouse Genome oligonucleotide microarrays, 4 x 44K format, was used to identify sex-dependent and HNF4alpha-dependent differences in gene expression in adult mouse liver. This series is comprised of four sex-genotype combinations: adult male wild-type liver (M-WT), adult female wild-type liver (F-WT), adult male liver-specific HNF4alpha knockout liver (M-KO) and adult female liver-specific HNF4alpha knockout liver (F-KO). Four pools, each comprised of 4 randomly selected individual liver RNAs, were prepared for each sex-genotype combination. The pools were paired randomly to generate 4 separate experimental comparisons: M-WT:F-WT (first array comparison), M-WT:M-KO (second array comparison), F-WT:F-KO (third array comparison), and M-KO:F-KO (fourth array comparison). A total of 4994 HNF4alpha-dependent genes were identified, of which ~1000 fewer genes responded to the loss of HNF4alpha in female liver as compared to male liver. Moreover, 90% of the genes showing sex-specific expression in the liver were shown to lose sex specificity in HNF4alpha-deficient liver. Keywords: genetic knockout and sex response

Project description:Enteric pathogens with low infectious doses rely on the ability to orchestrate expression of virulence and metabolism-associated genes in response to environmental cues for successful infection. Accordingly, the human pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) employs a complex multifaceted regulatory network to link expression of type III secretion system (T3SS) factors to nutrient availability. While phosphorylation of histidine and aspartate on two-component system response regulators is recognized as an integral part of signaling, the involvement of phosphotyrosine-mediated control is minimally explored in Gram-negative pathogens. Our recent phosphotyrosine profiling study of E. coli revealed 342 proteins, indicating that phosphotyrosine modifications in bacteria are more prevalent than previously anticipated. Here, we demonstrate that tyrosine phosphorylation of a metabolite-responsive LacI/GalR family regulator, Cra, negatively affects T3SS expression in glycolytic conditions typical for the colon lumen environment where production of the T3SS is unnecessary. Our data suggest that Cra phosphorylation affects T3SS expression by modulating expression of ler, encoding the major activator of EHEC virulence gene expression. Phosphorylation of the Cra Y47 residue diminishes DNA-binding, thereby altering expression of metabolism and virulence-associated genes including those of the LEE pathogenicity island encoding the T3SS. Hence, phosphotyrosine-mediated regulation provides a mechanism to regulate Cra activity. Our data further suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation influences DNA binding by PurR and LacI, thereby phosphotyrosine-mediated control could provide a means to regulate DNA-binding of LacI/GalR family regulators in general. Our study provides an initial effort to unravel the role of phosphotyrosine-mediated global signaling in controlling the EHEC virulence potential

Project description:To understand the nature of ER and early endosome membrane contact site, we capitalized the MTM1 knock out (KO) HeLa cells that do not dissociate the ER and early endosome membrane contact upon nutrient starvation. By using the Doxycyclin inducible APEX2 fused Rab5A (early endosome marker) expressing stable cell lines of wildtype (WT) or KO cells, early endsome proximity proteins were acutely biotinyated during starvation. Subsequent biochemical fractionation were conducted to enrich ER membrane and biotinylated proteins were furhter enriched for Mass spectrometry analysis.

Project description:A series of dual-channel gene expression profiles obtained using Agilent Mouse TOE 75k microarrays was used to examine the sex-dependent and STAT5a-dependent differences in gene expression in adult mouse liver. This series is comprised of 3 randomly chosen independent male and female wildtype mouse liver cDNA samples and 3 randomly chosen independent male and female STAT5a-deficient mouse liver cDNA samples, totalling 12 samples. The samples were paired randomly to generate 4 comparisons of M-WT:F-WT, M-WT:M-KO, F-KO:F-WT, F-KO:M-KO. Comparison of the set of sex-dependent genes with the set of genes responsive to the loss of STAT5a in females shows a small group of the sex-specific genes were also regulated by STAT5a in females. These results indicate a role for STAT5a in female gene expression to a lesser degree than that shown for STAT5b in males. Keywords: genetic knockout and sex response

Project description:Escherichia coli possesses >65 small proteins of <50 amino acids, many of which are uncharacterized. We have identified a new small protein, MntS, involved in manganese homeostasis. Manganese is a critical micronutrient, serving as an enzyme cofactor and protecting against oxidative stress. Yet manganese is toxic in excess and little is known about its function in cells. Bacteria carefully control intracellular manganese levels using the transcription regulator MntR. Before this work, mntH, which encodes a manganese importer, was the only gene known to respond to manganese via MntR repression in E. coli K12. We demonstrated that mntS is another member of the MntR manganese regulon. We also identified yebN, which encodes a putative manganese efflux pump, as the first gene positively regulated by MntR in Enterobacteria. Since MntS is expressed when manganese levels are low, causes manganese sensitivity when overexpressed, and binds manganese, we propose that MntS may be a manganese chaperone. This study reveals new factors involved in manganese regulation and metabolism and expands our knowledge of how small proteins function. Two E. coli strains, MG1655 (wild type) and GSO458 (Delta-mntR) were grown to OD600 ~ 0.5 in M9 glucose media at 37 M-BM-:C and treated with 10 microM MnCl2. In the first experiment, this incubation with 10 microM MnCl2 was for 60 min and in the second experiment, it was for 10 min. RNA was extracted using the hot phenol method and cDNA prepared and hybridized according the manufacturer's instructions (Affymetrix).
