Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans cells grown under planktonic and biofilm-inducing conditions, comparing SN76 and sfl1Δ/sfl1Δ strains. Goal was to study the effect of SFL1 deletion on the transcriptomic profile of C. albicans planktonic and biofilm cells under acidic conditions, in order to reveal the function of the Sfl1 transcription factor in C. albicans biofilm development.

Project description:The ability of the fungus Candida albicans to filament and form biofilms contributes to its burden as a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections. Biofilm development involves an interconnected transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) consisting of nine transcription factors (TFs) that bind both to their own regulatory regions and to those of the other network TFs. Here, we show that seven of the nine TFs in the C. albicans biofilm network contain prion-like domains (PrLDs) that have been linked to the ability to form phase-separated condensates. Construction of PrLD mutants in four biofilm TFs reveals that these domains are essential for filamentation and biofilm formation in C. albicans. Moreover, biofilm PrLDs promote the formation of phase-separated condensates in the nuclei of live cells, and PrLD mutations that abolish phase separation (such as the removal of aromatic residues) also prevent biofilm formation. Biofilm TF condensates can selectively recruit other TFs through PrLD-PrLD interactions and can co-recruit RNA polymerase II, implicating condensate formation in the assembly of active transcriptional complexes. Finally, we show that PrLD mutations that block the phase separation of biofilm TFs also prevent filamentation in an in vivo model of gastrointestinal colonization. Together, these studies associate transcriptional condensates with the regulation of filamentation and biofilm formation in C. albicans, and highlight how targeting of PrLD-PrLD interactions could prevent pathogenesis by this species.

Project description:Biofilm formation on medically implanted devices by Candida albicans poses a significant clinical challenge. Here we compared biofilm-associated gene expression in two clinical C. albicans isolates, SC5314 and WO-1, to identify shared gene regulatory responses that may be functionally relevant. Among the 50 genes most highly expressed in biofilms relative to planktonic (suspension-grown) cells, we were able to recover insertion mutations in 25 genes. We observed that 20 of the 25 mutants have altered biofilm-related properties, including cell-substrate adherence, cell-cell signaling, and azole susceptibility. We focused on the most highly up-regulated gene in biofilms, RHR2, which specifies the glycerol biosynthetic enzyme glycerol-3-phosphate phosphatase. Glycerol is 5-fold more abundant in biofilm cells than planktonic cells, and an rhr2D/D strain accumulates 2-fold less biofilm glycerol than the wild type. Under in vitro growth conditions, the rhr2D/D mutant has reduced biofilm biomass and reduced adherence to silicone. The rhr2D/D mutant is severely defective in biofilm formation in vivo, in a rat catheter infection model. Expression profiling of the rhr2D/D mutant indicates that it has reduced expression of cell surface adhesin genes ALS1, ALS3, and HWP1, as well as a large fraction of all other biofilm up-regulated genes. Reduced adhesin expression is the cause of the rhr2D/D mutant biofilm defect, because overexpression of ALS1, ALS3, or HWP1 restores biofilm formation ability to the mutant in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that internal glycerol has a regulatory role in biofilm gene expression, and that adhesin genes are among the main functional Rhr2-regulated genes.
