Project description:The Alphaproteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti lives in soil and is capable of fixing molecular nitrogen in symbiosis with legume plants. In this work, the small proteome of S. meliloti strain 2011 was studied to uncover translation of both annotated and novel small open reading frame (sORF)-encoded proteins (SEPs).

Project description:With a view to re-annotate the genome sequence of the nitrogen fixing bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti, we generated oriented sequences of transcripts. To cover a large number of expressed genes we prepared RNA from bacteria grown in three very different physiological conditions including bacteria grown in liquid cultures (in both exponential and stationary growth phases) and from 10-day-old nodules in which bacteria were differentiated in nitrogen fixing bacteroids. The transcripts sequences were then integrated into EuGene-P, a new prokaryotic genome annotation tool able to integrate high throughput data including oriented RNA-Seq data directly into the prediction process, which led to the production of an accurate and complete annotation of the genome of S. meliloti strain 2011.

Project description:Sinorhizobium meliloti lives as a soil saprophyte, and engages in a nitrogen fixing symbiosis with plant roots. To succeed in such diverse environments, the bacteria must continually adjust gene expression. Transcriptional plasticity in eubacteria is often mediated by alternative sigma factors interacting with core RNA polymerase. The S. meliloti genome encodes 14 of these alternative sigmas, including 11 extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigmas. We used custom Affymetrix Symbiosis Chips to characterize the global transcriptional response of S. meliloti overexpressing the ECF sigma factor, RpoE2. Our work identifies over 200 genes whose expression is dependent on RpoE2.

Project description:Sinorhizobium meliloti can live as a soil saprophyte, and can engage in a nitrogen fixing symbiosis with plant roots. To succeed in such diverse environments, the bacteria must continually adjust gene expression. Transcriptional plasticity in eubacteria is often mediated by alternative sigma factors interacting with core RNA polymerase. The S. meliloti genome encodes 14 of these alternative sigmas, including two putative RpoH (heat shock) sigmas. We used custom Affymetrix Symbiosis Chips to characterize the global transcriptional response of S. meliloti rpoH1, rpoH2 and rpoH1 rpoH2 mutants during heat shock and stationary phase growth. Under these conditions, expression of over 300 genes is dependent on rpoH1 and rpoH2.

Project description:The bacterium, Sinorhizobium meliloti, interacts symbiotically with leguminous plants such as Medicago truncatula to form nitrogen-fixing root nodules. During symbiosis, plant and bacterial cells differentiate in a coordinated manner, resulting in specialized plant cells that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteroids. Medicago nodules are organized in structurally distinct tissue zones, representing different stages of bacterial and plant differentiation. We used laser-capture microdissection (LCM) to analyze bacterial and plant gene expression in four root nodule regions. In parallel, we analyzed gene expression in nodules formed by wild type bacteria on six plant mutants with nitrogen fixation deficiencies (dnf). We found that bacteroid metabolism is drastically remodeled during bacteroid differentiation. Many processes required for bacterial growth are down-regulated in the nitrogen fixation zone. The overall transcriptional changes are similar to those occurring during nutrient limitation by the stringent response. We also observed differential expression of bacterial genes involved in nitrogen fixation, cell envelope homeostasis, cell division, stress response and polyamine biosynthesis at distinct stages of nodule development. In M. truncatula we observed the differential regulation of several host processes that may trigger bacteroid differentiation and control bacterial infection. We analyzed plant and bacterial gene expression simultaneously, which allowed us to correlate processes in both organisms.
