Project description:Shewanella oneidensis is an important model organism for bioremediation studies because of its diverse respiratory capabilities. In recent years, biofilm development of S. oneidensis has been extensively studied because it is essential to reduce solid metals. As a special form of biofilm, however, pellicles are largely overlooked. The goal of this work was to understand requirements of S. oneidensis pellicle formation and the molecular basis of pellicle formation. We demonstrated that successful pellicle formation and survival was likely to require the threshold level of cell density and higher concentration of oxygen. Proteinase K and EDTA were potent pellicle disrupter. DNA microarray experiments were used to study the gene expression profile of young air–liquid interface pellicle relative to planktonic cells, which indicated that the air–liquid interface pellicle was more metabolically active than the planktonic cells. Most notably, consistently up-regulation of iron or heme uptake and transportation proteins was observed in the S. oneidensis MR-1 pellicle. However, neither the hmuT nor hugA heme transport mutant was defective in pellicle formation. An examination of the influence of several metal cations on the anti-pellicle activity of EDTA showed that Ca (II), Mn(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) fully protected S. oneidensis MR-1 pellicle against EDTA treatment while additional of iron enabled the initiation of pellicle formation but maturation was significantly impaired. Collectively, iron was less important than other metals with respect to pellicle formation in S. oneidensis. A fresh colony grown overnight on a LB plate was used to inoculate 50 ml LB and incubated in a shaker (200 rpm) to an OD600 of 0.8 at the room temperature. This culture was then diluted 500-fold with fresh LB, resulting in the starting cultures. Aliquots of 30ml starting cultures were transferred to 50-ml Pyrex beakers and allowed to develop pellicles at the room temperature. When a complete but thin (young pellicle) at the interface were formed (about 30h hours), planktonic culture and pellicle were separated and applied to centrifugation at 8000 rpm for 3 min at room temperature. 3 parallel starting cultures were used and 3 samlpes of pellicle cells or planktonic cells were collected at 30h. RNA from the pellicle cells was fluorescently labeled with Cy3, and that from the planktonic was labeled with Cy5.

Project description:Leishmania are protists (class: Kinetoplastida) with a single multifunctional flagellum used for motility, attachment to the sand fly vector and sensory functions. To discover the protein composition of the L. mexicana promastigote flagellum, we fractionated L. mexicana promastigotes by mechanical shearing and differential centrifugation into four fractions: detergent soluble (Fs) and insoluble (Fi) fractions of isolated flagella and detergent soluble (Cs) and insoluble fractions (Ci) of deflagellated cell body remnants. A label-free quantitation method (SINQ; Trudgian et al., 2011, Proteomics 10.1002) was used to identify proteins enriched in each of the four fractions. This PRIDE upload contains .RAW, .MGF and .XML files, as well as the SINQ quantification output file “SINQ_raw_data” and the genome sequence annotation used for protein identification “MFiebig_20140619” (Fiebig et al., 2015, PLoS Pathogens II:e1005186). XML files are named SUB7467; MSS10859. .RAW and .MGF files are structured as follows (for each fraction there are eight files, corresponding to individual gel pieces): “Ci: C131121_030; C131121_031; C131121_032; C131121_033; C131121_034; C131121_035; C131121_036; C131121_037”, “Cs: C131121_040; C131121_041; C131121_042; C131121_043; C131121_044; C131121_045; C131121_046; C131121_047”, “Fi: C131121_010; C131121_011; C131121_012; C131121_013; C131121_014; C131121_015; C131121_016; C131121_017”, “Fs: C131121_020; C131121_021; C131121_022; C131121_023; C131121_024; C131121_025; C131121_026; C131121_027”.

Project description:Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens, the soybean N2-fixing symbiont, uses mannitol or arabinose as carbon and energy source, among other substances. In this bacterium, growth with mannitol led to higher biomass production, and inhibited the synthesis of its secondary (lateral) flagellar system, regarding growth with arabinose. A proteomic comparison of bacteria grown in mannitol or arabinose suggested that mannitol may be degraded by the Calvin-Benson-Bassham pathway, while arabinose seems degraded by the L-2-keto-3-deoxyarabonate pathway, both pathways sharing only the reactions from pyruvate to CO2. Despite these differences, the stoichiometric balances resulted in similar O2 consumption and ATP production per C-mole of substrate. The poly-3-hydroxybutyrate biosynthesis pathway was stimulated in mannitol, while in arabinose there was a consistent increase in enzymes for the synthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide from aspartate, suggesting a surplus of reducing power in mannitol. This may agree to previous reports showing higher O2 consumption rate in arabinose, which taking into account the similarity in O2 consumption balance, suggests higher maintenance energy demand in this carbon and energy source. Since lateral flagella are produced only in arabinose, we wondered whether their energy demand might explain this difference. Hence, we compared the O2 consumption rates in mannitol and arabinose of the wild-type and a lafR::Km mutant devoid of lateral flagella. We observed that, while there was a three-fold higher O2 consumption rate in the wild-type in arabinose with respect to mannitol, there was no difference in the mutant, suggesting that lateral flagella behave as parasitic structures in this medium.

Project description:The oral mucosal pellicle is a thin lubricating layer generated by the binding of saliva proteins on epithelial oral cells. The protein composition of this biological structure has been to date studied by targeted analyses of specific salivary proteins. In order to perform a more exhaustive proteome characterization of pellicles, we used TR146 cells expressing or not the transmembrane mucin MUC1 and generated pellicles by incubation with human saliva and washing to remove unbound proteins. A suitable method was established for the in vitro isolation of the mucosal pellicle by “shaving” it from the cells using trypsin. Comparison of pellicle and saliva compositions evidenced the adsorption of proteins not previously reported as pellicle constituents such as proteins of the PLUNC family. Pellicles formed on TR146 and TR146/MUC1 were also analyzed and compared by protein label-free quantification.

Project description:In response to osmolarity, Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (S. Typhi) regulates genes required for Vi capsular antigen expression oppositely to those required for motility and invasion. Previous studies suggest that osmoregulation of motility, invasion and capsule expression is mediated through the RcsC/RcsD/RcsB phosphorelay system. Here we performed gene expression profiling and functional studies to determine the role of TviA, an auxiliary protein of the RcsB response regulator, in controlling virulence gene expression in S. Typhi. TviA repressed expression of genes encoding flagella and the invasion associated type III secretion system (T3SS-1) through repression of the flagellar regulators flhDC and fliZ, resulting in reduced invasion and reduced expression of FliC. Both RcsB and TviA reduced expression of flhDC, but only TviA altered flhDC expression in response to osmolarity. These data suggest that the auxiliary TviA protein integrates a new regulatory input into the RcsB regulon of S. Typhi, thereby altering expression of genes encoding flagella, the Vi antigen and T3SS-1 in response to osmolarity. Gene expression profiles of the S. Typhi wild-type strain, a rcsB mutant, a (delta)tviB-vexE (tviBCDEvexABCDE) mutant, and a (delta)viaB (tviABCDEvexABCDE) mutant (lacking tviA expression) was compared. Strains were cultured in SOB broth (low salt), a condition known to induce expression of TviA and the RcsCB system. Total RNA was extracted from two independent cultures (biological replicates) of each strain. cDNA was differentially labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 and 648, respectively and competitively hybridized on S.Typhimurium arrays (PFGRC, version 4). The submitted samples are biological replicates of a competitive hybridization of cDNA from the wild-type strain (Ty2) and the rcsB mutant (SW237) (GSM395580, GSM395581) or the viaB mutant (STY2) and the tviB-vexE mutant (SW74) (GSM395582, GSM395583), respectively.

Project description:Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient that is limiting in many environments. When P is scarce organisms employ strategies for conservation of internal stores, and to efficiently scavenge P from their external surroundings. In this study we investigated the acclimation response of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to P deficiency, comparing the transcriptional profiles of P starved wild-type cells to the P replete condition. RNA was prepared from P-containing or P-deprived logarithmic growth phase cells and subjected to RNA-Seq analysis. During the 24 hours after the imposition of P starvation we observed that from the 407 significantly changing genes (> 2 fold change, corrected p-value < 0.05) in the wild-type 317 genes were up-regulated, in average 8.36-fold, and 90 genes were down-regulated by 3.43-fold, in average. Many of the upregulated genes encoded enzymes involved in specific responses to P starvation, including PHOX, encoding the major secreted alkaline phosphatase, and multiple putative, high-efficiency phosphate transporter genes. More general responses included the up-regulation of genes involved in photoprotective processes (LHCSR3, LHCSR1, LHCBM9, PTOX1) and genes involved in protein modification and degradation. Down-regulated mRNAs indicated an early stage of the reduction of chloroplast ribosomal proteins, which are considered to be a reservoir for P in the cell. Chlamydomonas reinhardtii strain 21 gr (CC1690, wild-type) grown in TAP medium (Harris 1989) in a rotary incubator (200 rpm) at 25 M-BM-0C in continuous light (70 M-BM-5mol m-2 s-1). For 24 hours, either 1.1 mM phosphate or 0 mM were provided with the growth media. P deprivation was achieved by washing cells twice in midlogarithmic growth phase with liquid TAP medium without P (TAP-P) and cells were resuspended at a density of 2.5 mg/ml Chlorophyll in TAP or TAP-P. Cell aliquots were collected for mRNA isolation 24 h after being transferred either to TAP or TAP-P medium.
