Project description:Purpose: Examining the transcriptome of human gut bacteria (Bacteroides xylanisolvens/Bacteroides ovatus) that grow on mucin O-linked glycans as a sole carbon source Methods: Strains were grown on 10 mg/ml mucin O-linked glycans (MOG) or 5 mg/ml glucose as a sole carbon source in vitro. Fold change was calculated as MOG over glucose. Once cells reached an optical density corresponding to mid-log phase growth, RNA was isolated and rRNA depleted. Samples were multiplexed for sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq platform at the University of Michigan Sequencing Core. Data was analyzed using Arraystar software (DNASTAR, Inc.) Genes with significant up- or down-regulation were determined by the following criteria: genes with an average fold-change >10-fold and biological replicates with a normalized expression level >1% of the overall average RPKM expression level. Results: We identified genes activated in response to mucin O-linked glycans from Bacteroides xylanisolvens/Bacteroides ovatus strains

Project description:The phylum Bacteroidetes is a major component of the human gut microbiota which has a broad impact on the development and physiology of its host, and a potential role in a wide range of disease syndromes1-3. The predominance of Bacteroidetes and the genus Bacteroides in the distal gut is due in large part to the expansion of paralogous gene clusters, termed Polysaccharide Utilization Loci (PULs), dedicated to the uptake and catabolism of host derived and dietary polysaccharides4,5. It is generally thought that the diversity of PULs is key to Bacteroides successful competition for nutrients in the gut environment6. The nutritive value of the available polysaccharides varies greatly and thus their utilization is hierarchical and strictly controlled. A typical PUL includes regulatory genes that control expression in response to the presence of specific glycan substrates. However the existence of additional regulatory mechanisms has been predicted to explain phenomena such as the hierarchical control, catabolite repression, and the fine tuning of gene expression to match catabolic activity7-9. Using Bacteroides fragilis as a model organism, this report describes a previously unknown layer of regulatory control in which cis-encoded antisense small RNAs (sRNA) act as repressors of the PULsâ catabolic genes. Nearly 30% of B. fragilis PULs are subject to this type of sRNA control and these PULs tend to be more closely linked to the utilization of host-derived glycans than dietary polysaccharides. The findings described here indicate the presence of a global control mechanism that underlies the known regulatory circuits which modulate PUL expression in response to substrate availability, and hence provide novel insight into regulation of the gut Bacteroidetes physiology. This is a 4 chip study with 8 technical replicates on each chip. This was an in vitro, exploratory study to determine if mutation or overexpression of a sRNA associated with the Don locus would affect gene expression. In vitro cultures were grown in defined media with mucin glycans as the sole carbon source. The two chips representing growth of the wild type strain (638R) on mucin glycans were also used in a related study GSE53883 (GSM1303101 and GSM1303102).

Project description:Gene expression profiles of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron in vitro during growth on host mucosal polysaccharides as sole carbon sources. All substrates in this series are derived from porcine gastric mucin and include mucin O-glycans and glycosaminoglycans. Two different culture formats used: 800ml batch-culture bioreactors and 5ml tube cultures (format is indicated within each sample title). Each set of growths was referenced to a minimal medium glucose reference corressponding to the same culture format. Unfractionated porcine mucosal glycan (PMG) growths were compared to previously published in vivo datasets, which were referenced to the 800ml minimal medium glucose reference dataset.

Project description:The large-scale application of genomic and metagenomic sequencing technologies has yielded a number of insights about the metabolic potential of symbiotic human gut microbes. Bacteria that colonize the mucosal layer that overlies the gut epithelium have access to highly-sulfated polysaccharides (i.e., mucin oligosaccharides and glycosaminoglycans), which they could potentially forage as nutrient sources. To be active, sulfatases must undergo a critical post-translational modification catalyzed in anaerobic bacteria by the AdoMet enzyme anSME (anaerobic Sulfatase-Maturating Enzyme). In the present study, we have tested the role of this pathway in the prominent gut symbiont Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, which possesses more predicted sulfatases (28) than in the human genome and a single predicted anSME. In vitro studies revealed that deletion of its anSME (BT0238) results in loss of sulfatase activity and impaired ability to use sulfated polysaccharides as carbon sources. Co-colonization of germ-free animals with both isogenic strains, or invasion experiments involving the introduction of one then the other strain, established that anSME activity and the sulfatases that are activated via this pathway, are important fitness factors for B. thetaiotaomicron, especially when mice are fed a simple sugar diet that requires this saccharolytic bacterium to adaptively forage on host glycans as nutrients. Whole genome transcriptional profiling of wild-type and the anSME mutant in vivo revealed that loss of this enzyme alters expression of genes involved in mucin utilization and that this disrupted ability to access mucosal glycans likely underlies the observed dramatic colonization defect. Comparative genomic analysis reveals that 100% of 46 fully sequenced human gut Bacteroidetes contain homologs of BT0238 and genes encoding sulfatases, suggesting that this is an important and evolutionarily conserved feature.

Project description:The goal of this project was to sequence the transcriptome of wild type Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482 grown in minimal media with either glucose or bovine alpha 1 acid glycoprotein (AAGP) as the sole carbon source. Using these data we could then compare relative gene expression levels under each condition and identify genes specifically upregulated during growth on AAGP. Analysis of the spent media indicated that only the N-glycan component of the AAGP had been used by the cells to support growth.
