Project description:Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are ubiquitous throughout bacterial and archaeal genomes. TA systems consist of a stable toxin that inhibits growth and a labile antitoxin that prevents toxicity of the toxin. Here we made an artificial TA system (arT/arA) and performed a DNA microarray study for overproduction of the toxin.

Project description:The role of six toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems on biofilm development was investigated (MazEF, RelBEF, ChpB, YefM-YoeB, DinJ-YafQ, and TomB-Hha). Although these TA systems were reported previously to not impact bacterial fitness, we found that biofilm formation is decreased by toxins and increased by anti-toxins, in part, through YjgK. Hence, one role of TA systems is to regulate biofilm formation.

Project description:As the number of bacterial genomes and transcriptomes increases, so does the number of newly identified toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems. However, their functional characterization remains challenging, often requiring the use of overexpression vectors that can lead to misinterpretations. To fill this gap, we developed a systematic approach called FASTBAC-Seq (Functional AnalysiS of Toxin–Antitoxin Systems in BACteria by Deep Sequencing). Combining life/death phenotypic selection with next-generation sequencing, FASTBAC-Seq allows the rapid identification of loss-of- function (toxicity) mutations in toxin-encoding genes belonging to TA loci with nucleotide resolution. Here, we apply this new tool to study aapA3/IsoA3, a member of a new family of type I TA systems hosted on the chromosome of the major human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori.

Project description:Here evidence is presented that MqsR and B3021 are a novel toxin-antitoxin (TA) system related to biofilm development and quorum sensing. Using whole-transcriptome studies and nickel enrichment DNA binding microarrays coupled with cell survival studies in which MqsR was overexpressed in isogenic mutants, we identified seven genes involved in MqsR toxicity (clpX, clpP, yfjZ, cspD, relB, relE, and hokA). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) confirmed consistent induction of the seven genes by the overexpression of MqsR as well as induction of nutrient starvation related genes (cstA, rpoS, and dps). Taken together, our results indicate that MqsR toxicity is caused via CspD (a DNA replication inhibitor), other TA systems (RelE/RelB and YfjZ), HokA (a small membrane toxin peptide), and nutrient-starvation conditions induced via CstA, RpoS, and Dps. Additionally, in vivo binding results show antitoxin B3021 binds to the promoter regions of genes encoding essential proteins for stress, growth and normal physiology.

Project description:The features of Mycoplasma in human organ such lung and urinary tract are enigmatic. Here, the role of M. hominis in regard to biofilm formation of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strain CFT073 was investigated. Although M. hominis were inferred to not impact on UPEC bacterial fitness including growth and productions of signaling molecules as autoinducer-2 (AI-2) and indole, we found that the presence of M. hominis dramatically decreased biofilm formation of UPEC CFT073 as well as slightly repressed attachment and cytotoxicity of that. Importantly, this activity was observed on UPEC strain specifically, not enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) strain that exists on intestine. Whole-transcriptome profiling and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis revealed PhoPQ system and anti-termination protein (encoded by ybcQ) participates on the reduction of biofilm formation by M. hominis (corroborated by qRT-PCR). Furthermore, collaborating with previous report that toxin-antitoxin (TA) system involved in biofilm formation, M. hominis increased on the transcriptions of toxin genes including hha (toxin gene in Hha-TomB TA system) and pasT (toxin part in PasT-PasI TA system). Hence, we propose that one possible role of M. hominis is to influence bacterial biofilm formation in urinary tract. Only fourteen genes were induced (2.5-fold) by the presence of M. hominis in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) biofilm cells. Among upregulated genes, ybcQ (encodes anti-termination protein Q homolog) and phoP/phoQ (encode DNA-binding response regulators in two-component regulatory system), were induced by the presence of M. hominis.

Two-condition experiment, UPEC CFT073 alone vs. UPEC CFT073 with Mycoplasma hominis PG21 (10^5 ccu/ml). For preparing the total RNA, UPEC CFT073 cells were grown at 37°C in biofilm cells on glass wool with or without M. hominis for 24 h.
