Klebsiella pneumoniae protomic response to antibiotics

ABSTRACT: Bacteria can circumvent the effect of antibiotics by transitioning to a poorly understood physiological state that does not involve conventional genetic elements of resistance. Here we examine antibiotic susceptibility with a Class A β-lactamase+ invasive strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae that was isolated from a lethal outbreak within laboratory colonies of Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus monkeys. Bacterial responses to the ribosomal synthesis inhibitors streptomycin and doxycycline resulted in distinct proteomic adjustments that facilitated decreased susceptibility to each antibiotic.

Project description:The spread of antibiotic resistance has developed to all known antibiotics. Extended spectrum β-lactamase-producing bacteria are particularly problematic, as they are resistant to a wide range of commonly used antibiotics. Resistance to β-lactams is known to be multifactorial, although the underlying mechanisms generally are poorly understood but critical factors for effective therapy against infections, especially for multi-resistant pathogenic bacteria. In the present study, a plasmid-based homologous recombination system was used to target and delete specific β-lactamase genes (i.e., the blaOXA-1, blaTEM-1 or the ESBL blaCTX-M15) of the clinical strain ESBL Escherichia coli CCUG 73778, generating three “knock-out” clone variants, each one lacking only one of the β-lactamases. The objective was to determine the genotypic impacts of each gene loss on the phenotypic antibiotic resistance and proteome of the bacterium. Quantitative proteomic analyses performed on the three clone variants and the original strain, using tandem mass tags (TMT) and bottom-up liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), after exposure to different concentrations of cefadroxil. Variation of the proteome in each clone variant was determined, to establish the relative importance of each resistance gene and better understand the genetic and proteomic responses and mechanisms of the resistance phenotypes. The knockout of blaCTX-M-15 was observed to have the greatest impact in protein expression, with the knockout of blaOXA-1 also effecting a marked but lower degree of changes. Proteins known to be associated with antibiotic resistance, cell membrane integrity, cellular stress, gene expression and hypothetical/unknown function proteins, among others, demonstrated distinct differences in expression levels (Fold change >1-5 or <-1.5), that may be related to aspects of compensation for the mutant resistance phenotypes. The present study provides a framework to study the impacts of targeted loss of antibiotic resistance genes in clinically relevant strains for understanding the mechanisms of phenotypic antibiotic resistance.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major opportunistic pathogen causing a wide range of infections and one of the most problematic bacteria regarding antibiotic resistance, with an increasing incidence of multidrug and extensively-drug resistant strains, including resistance to last resource antibiotics such as carbapenems. Resistances are often due to complex interplays of naturally and acquired resistance mechanisms which are enhanced by its remarkably large regulatory network. Thus, the use of non-targeted shotgun methodologies such as mass spectrometry-based proteomics is crucial to understand these interplays and to reveal possible strain and species-specific novel mechanisms of antibiotic resistance. The aim of this study was to determine the proteomic response of two carbapenem-resistant and extensively-drug-resistant P. aeruginosa strains to subminimal inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs) of meropenem. The strains belonged to high-risk clones ST235 and ST395, one carrying a class 1 integron-encoded VIM-4 metallo-β-lactamase and one carrying no acquired antibiotic resistance genes. Each strain was cultivated with three different sub-MICs of meropenem, and a quantitative shotgun proteomic approach was applied, using tandem mass tag (TMT) isobaric labeling followed by nano-liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry, to determine significantly up- or down-regulated proteins and enriched groups of proteins and pathways. Cultivation of both strains with ½ and ¼ of the MIC, resulted in hundreds of differentially regulated proteins, including several β-lactamases, transport-related proteins (including multiple porins and efflux pumps), proteins associated with peptidoglycan metabolism and cell wall organization and dozens of regulatory proteins. Remarkably, all components of the H1 type VI secretion system were up-regulated in one of the strains. Enrichment analyses revealed that multiple metabolic pathways were affected. Additionally, numerous proteins of unknown function were also differentially-regulated in each strain. In conclusion, high subminimal-inhibitory concentrations of meropenem cause massive changes in the proteomes of carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa strains, involving a wide range of common and strain-specific mechanisms and proteins, many still uncharacterized which might potentially play a role in the susceptibility of P. aeruginosa to meropenem.
