Laboratory adaptation of Bacillus anthracis

Project description:The spore forming pathogen Bacillus anthracis is the etiologic agent of anthrax in humans and animals. It cycles through infected hosts as vegetative cells and is eventually introduced into the environment where it generates an endospore resistant to many harsh conditions. The endospores are subsequently ingested by the next host to begin the next cycle. Outbreaks of anthrax occur regularly worldwide in wildlife and livestock, and the potential for human infection exists whenever humans encounter infected animals. It is also possible to encounter intentional releases of anthrax spores, as was the case in October 2001. Consequently, it is important to be able to rapidly establish the provenance of infectious strains of B. anthracis. Here, we compare protein expression in seven low-passage wild isolates and four laboratory strains of B. anthracis grown under identical conditions using LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis. Of the 1,023 total identified proteins, 96 had significant abundance differences between wild and laboratory strains. Of those, 28 proteins directly related to sporulation were upregulated in wild isolates, with expression driven by Spo0A, CodY, and AbrB/ScoC. In addition, we observed evidence of changes in cell division and fatty acid biosynthesis between the two classes of strains, despite being grown under identical experimental conditions. These results suggest wild B. anthracis cells are more highly tuned to sporulate than their laboratory cousins, and this difference should be exploited as a method to differentiate between laboratory adapted cultures and low passage wild strains isolated during an anthrax outbreak. This knowledge should distinguish between intentional releases and exposure to strains in nature providing a basis for the type of response by public health officials and investigators.

Global transcriptomic response of modified Bacillus anthracis over expressing protective antigen

Project description:In this study we focused on understanding the effect of over expression of recombinant protective antigen (rPA) on the Bacillus anthracis metabolism and genes expression with the purpose of improving the production of this recombinant toxin in particular and recombinant proteins in general. To achieve this goal controlled growth of the B. anthracis ames strain transformed with pYS5 (PA producer) plasmid encoding protective antigen and the corresponding empty vector pSW4 (non-producer) were performed and protein production, bacterial growth characteristics and gene transcription pattern were analyzed. Controlled condition batch runs were performed for both strains and samples from early log (OD 3), log (OD 10) and late log (OD 16) phase were used for gene expression profiling. We found that most of the genes belonging to transport, TCA, glycolysis, PPP and amino acid biosynthesis were up-regulated in the lag phase samples which help the cell coping with the increased requirements of nutrient and energy for rPA expression. These pathways are down-regulated in the log and latelog phase as cellular stress response onsets, which is reflected in the decreased specific growth rate.

Comparative Genomics of Bacillus cereus and Bacillus anthracis

Project description:The aim of the study was to carry out a CGH study utilizing a set of 39 diverse Bacillus isolates. Thirty four B. cereus and five B. anthracis strains and isolates were chosen so as to represent different lineages based on previous characterizations, including MLEE and MLST (Helgason, Okstad et al. 2000; Helgason, Tourasse et al. 2004). They represent the spectrum of B. cereus phenotypic diversity by including soil, dairy and periodontal isolates in addition to virulent B. anthracis strains.

Direct regulons of the master virulence regulator AtxA of Bacillus anthracis

Project description:AtxA, the master virulence regulator of Bacillus anthracis, regulates the expression of three toxins that are required for the pathogenicity of Bacillus anthracis. Recent transcriptome analyses also showed that AtxA affects a large number of genes on both chromosome and plasmid, suggesting its role as a global regulator. Its mechanism of gene regulation nor binding target in vivo was, however, not well understood. In this work, we conducted ChIP-seq for cataloging binding sites of AtxA in vivo and Cappable-seq for catalogging the transcription start sites on the B. anthracis genome. For detected regulons, single knockout strains were constructed and RNA-seq was conducted for each strain.
