Project description:Bordetella pertussis is the etiological agent of whooping cough, a bacterial infection of especially children, which may be fatal without treatment. In frame of studies to investigate putative effects of vaccination on host-pathogen interaction and clonal distribution of strains, in addition to Corynebacterium diphtheriae and Clostridium tetani toxoid vaccines, also whole-cell and acellular pertussis vaccines were analyzed by mass spectrometry.

Project description:We assessed changes in gene expression in response to iron availability for the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Expression profiles of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 grown in semi-defined metal-poor media (mPGT) in iron-limiting (0.5 µM iron chloride supplementation) and iron-replete (10 µM supplementation) conditions were compared; the expression profiles of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 during growth in iron-replete conditions was also compared against an isogenic ΔdtxR mutant grown in iron-replete conditions. Three biological replicates were prepared by isolating total RNA from mid-logarithmic growth cultures and ten genes (dip0169, dip0415, dip1061, dip1062, dip2330, dip1486, dip0173, dip1252, dip1866, and dip0281) were quantified by real-time PCR to validate the array results. Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causative agent of the severe respiratory disease, diphtheria. Diphtheria Toxin (DT), encoded by the tox gene, is the potent exotoxin secreted by C. diphtheriae responsible for much of the morbidity and mortality of diphtheria. Expression of the tox gene is regulated by the Diphtheria Toxin Repressor (DtxR) and iron. In addition to the regulation of toxin expression, DtxR functions as a global iron-dependent regulatory factor that mediates iron homeostasis in C. diphtheriae. While numerous genes regulated by DtxR and iron are known, a genome-wide study of both the iron and DtxR regulons is lacking in C. diphtheriae. Here, we report novel iron- and DtxR-regulated genes revealed by a comprehensive transcriptomic analysis. Not all identified genes appear to be repressed by iron and DtxR; some genes were found to be induced by iron in a DtxR-dependent manner, a mechanism of regulation not previously described in C. diphtheriae. Using a prediction algorithm (MEME) and electrophoretic mobility shift assays, we verified DtxR binding to sequences upstream of several newly identified genes. Furthermore, we characterized expression of ferritin (ftn) and catalase (cat), which are both induced by iron, but differentially affected by DtxR. We identified three DtxR binding sites in the ftn promoter, while analysis of the cat promoter establishes a role for DtxR in cat expression and suggests complex regulation by additional regulators. Collectively, these results expand our knowledge on the function of DtxR and the diverse roles of this regulatory protein in controlling gene expression.

Project description:We assessed changes in gene expression in response to zinc availability for the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Expression profiles of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 grown in semi-defined metal-poor media (mPGT) without and with 5 µM zinc chloride supplementation were compared; the expression profile of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 in zinc-replete conditions was also compared against an isogenic Δzur mutant grown in zinc-replete conditions. Three biological replicates were prepared by isolating total RNA from mid-logarithmic growth cultures and eleven genes (dip0013, dip0093, dip0173, dip0438, dip1087, dip1486, dip1724, dip2114, dip2128, dip2162, and dip2325) were assessed by real-time PCR to validate the array results. (Abstract) Corynebacterium diphtheriae is a Gram-positive bacterial pathogen and the causative agent of diphtheria, a severe disease of the upper respiratory tract of humans. Factors required for C. diphtheriae to survive in the human host are not well defined, but likely include the acquisition of essential metals such as zinc. In C. diphtheriae, zinc-responsive global gene regulation is controlled by the Zinc Uptake Regulator (Zur), a member of the Fur-family of transcriptional regulators. In this study, we use transcriptomics to identify zinc-regulated genes in C. diphtheriae by comparing gene expression of a wild-type strain grown without and with zinc supplementation. Zur-regulated genes were identified by comparing wild-type gene expression with that of an isogenic zur mutant. We observed zinc repression of several putative surface proteins, the heme efflux system hrtBA, various ABC transporters, and the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase/polyketide synthase cluster sidAB. Furthermore, increased gene expression in response to zinc was observed for the alcohol dehydrogenase, adhA. Zinc and Zur regulation were confirmed for several genes by complementing the zur deletion and subsequent qPCR analysis. We used MEME to predict Zur binding sites within the promoter regions of zinc- and Zur-regulated genes, and verified Zur binding by electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Additionally, we characterized cztA (dip1101), which encodes a putative cobalt/zinc/cadmium efflux family protein. Deletion of cztA results in increased sensitivity to zinc, but not to cobalt or cadmium. This study advances our knowledge of changes to Zur-dependent global gene expression in response to zinc in C. diphtheriae. The identification of zinc-regulated ABC transporters herein will facilitate future studies to characterize zinc transport in C. diphtheriae.

Project description:Type VI secretion systems (T6SS) are widely distributed among Vibrio species, yet their roles in the coexistence of toxigenic and non- toxigenic strains remain unclear. Here, we report a novel orphan T6SS effector-immunity module, TseVs-TsiVs, primarily harbored by non- toxigenic Vibrio cholerae. TseVs exhibits robust vibriocidal activity, specifically targeting susceptible Vibrios (lacking TsiVs). TseVs forms dual-membrane, ion-selective pores that collapse Na⁺/K⁺ homeostasis, resulting in membrane depolarization and ATP depletion. Remarkably, non-Vibrio bacteria evade TseVs through proton motive force (PMF)-dependent resilience, uncovering a previously unrecognized immunity-independent defense strategy. Furthermore, tseVs+ non- toxigenic V. cholerae strains are globally distributed and have dominated in recent decades, highlighting TseVs’s ecological significance in Vibrio population dynamics. By linking TseVs’s bioenergetic assassination to Vibrio population shifts, we demonstrate how T6SS effectors shape microbial genetic diversity. Our findings suggest that TseVs represents a promising model for precision antimicrobial strategies, minimizing collateral damage to commensal microbiota.

Project description:We assessed changes in gene expression in response to manganese availability for the human pathogen Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Total RNA was harvested from wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 and an isogenic ΔmntR (dip0619) grown in semi-defined metal-limited media (mPGT) without or with 5 µM manganese chloride supplementation. Three biological replicates were prepared and five genes were assessed by real-time PCR to validate the array results: dip0124, dip0169, dip0615, dip1923, and dip2261. (Abstract) Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causative agent of a severe respiratory disease in humans. The bacterial systems required for infection are poorly understood, but the acquisition of metals such as manganese (Mn) are likely critical for host colonization. MntR is a Mn-dependent transcriptional regulator in C. diphtheriae and was previously shown to repress the expression of the mntABCD genes, which encode an ABC metal transporter. However, other targets of Mn and MntR regulation in C. diphtheriae have not been identified. In this study, we use comparisons between the gene expression profiles of wild-type C. diphtheriae strain 1737 grown without or with Mn supplementation and comparisons of gene expression between wild-type and an mntR mutant to characterize the C. diphtheriae Mn and MntR regulon. MntR was observed to both repress and induce the expression of various target genes in a Mn-dependent manner. Genes induced by MntR include the Mn-superoxide dismutase, sodA, and the putative ABC transporter locus, iutABCD. DNA binding studies showed that MntR interacts at the promoter regions for several genes identified in the expression study, and a 17-bp consensus MntR DNA binding site was identified. We found that an mntR mutant displayed increased sensitivity to Mn and Cd that could be alleviated by the additional deletion of the mntA-D transport locus, providing evidence that the MntABCD transporter functions as a Mn uptake system in C. diphtheriae. The findings in this study further our understanding of metal uptake systems and global metal regulatory networks in this important human pathogen.
