RdsA is a global regulator that controls cell shape and division in Rhizobium etli

Project description:Unlike other bacteria, cell growth in rhizobiales is unipolar and asymmetric. The regulation of cell division, and its coordination with metabolic processes is an active field of research. In Rhizobium etli, gene RHE_PE00024, located in a secondary chromosome, is essential for growth. This gene encodes a hybrid histidine kinase sensor protein, participating in a, as yet undescribed, two-component signaling system. In this work, we show that a conditional knockdown mutant (cKD24) in RHE_PE00024 (hereby referred as rdsA, after rhizobium division and shape) generates a striking phenotype, characterized by cells with a round shape, with stochastic and uncoordinated cell division. A fraction of the cells showed also multiple ectopic polar growths, sometimes leading to growth from the old pole, a sector that is normally inactive for growth in a wild-type cell. Homodimerization of RdsA appears to be required for normal function. RNAseq analysis of mutant cKD24 reveals global changes, with differentially expressed genes in at least five biological processes: cell division, wall biogenesis, respiration, translation, and motility. These modifications may affect proper structuring of the divisome, as well as peptidoglycan synthesis. Together, these results indicate that the hybrid histidine kinase RdsA is an essential global regulator influencing cell division and cell shape in R. etli.

Characterization of the NifA-RpoN Regulon in Rhizobium etli CFN42 in symbiosis using whole genome transcript analysis

Project description:The NifA-RpoN complex is a master regulator of the nitrogen fixation genes in alpha-proteobacteria. Based on the complete Rhizobium etli genome sequence, we constructed the R. etli CFN42 oligonucleotide (70 mer) microarray, and utilized this tool to survey changes in gene expression in R. etli CFN42 wild type compared with NifA CFNX247 mutant strain in symbiosis with Phaseolus vulgaris. As expected, the genes associated with a NifA and RpoN binding sites were downregulated in the NifA mutant strain.

A landscape of cellular aggregation of Rhizobium etli CFN42 by a transcriptomic approach

Project description:Dna microarray technology was used to survey changes in gene expression in R. etli CFN42 in biofilm formation In these organisms, two main phases, biofilm and planktonic, have been identified. In this work, using microarray assays, we evaluated global gene expression in biofilm and planktonic growth phases in rich medium, in the bacterium Rhizobium etli CFN42.

sRNAs in Rhizobium etli differentially expressed during free-living and host-associated growth

Project description:89 small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) were identified in the soil-dwelling alpha-proteobacterium Rhizobium etli by comparing an extensive compilation of ncRNA predictions to intergenic expression data of a whole-genome tiling array. The differential expression levels of some of these ncRNAs during free-living growth and during interaction with the eukaryotic host plant may indicate a role in adaptation to changing environmental conditions.

Rhizobium etli CFN42 wild type transcriptional profiling was compared between free living and symbiosis conditions

Project description:Rhizobium etli is a bacteria that fix nitrogen in symbiotic activity with Phaseolus vulgaris, the common bean plant. In order to accomplish this nitrogen reduction a especial environment is induced in nodules such that gene expression of bacteroid suffer a significant change with respect to its wild type life style. With the purpose to identify genetic alterations between these physiological states, replicates of microarray data were accomplished in similar conditions between bacteria cultivated in free-life (succinate-ammonia) and those carrying on nitrogen fixation inside nodule.
