Project description:The success of Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis evolving as multi-resistant nosocomial pathogens is associated with their ability to acquire and share adaptive traits, including mobile genetic elements (MGE) encoding antimicrobial resistance. Here, we define the mobilome in representative successful hospital associated genetic lineages, E. faecium ST17 (n=10) and ST78 (n=10), E. faecalis ST6 (n=10) and ST40 (n=10) using DNA microarray analyses. The hybridization patterns of 272 targets representing plasmid backbones (n=85), transposable elements (n=85), resistance determinants (n=67), prophages (n=29), and CRISPR-cas sequences (n=6) separated the strains according to species, and for E. faecalis also according to STs. Although plasmids belonging to the RCR-, Rep_3-, RepA_N- and Inc18-families were well represented with no significant differences in prevalence, the presence of specific replicon classes differed highly between the species; E. faecium was dominated by rep17/pRUM, rep2/pRE25, rep14/EFNP1 and rep20/pLG1 and E. faecalis by rep9/pCF10, rep2/pRE25 and rep7. Tn916-elements conferring tetracycline resistance (tetM) were found in all E. faecalis strains, but only in two E. faecium strains. A significant higher prevalence of IS256-, IS3-, ISL3-, IS200/IS605-, IS110-, IS982-, and IS4-transposases were detected in E. faecium, and of IS110-, IS982- and IS1182-transposases in E. faecalis ST6 compared to ST40. Notably, the transposases of IS981, ISEfm1 and IS1678 which have only been reported in few enterococcal isolates, were well represented in the E. faecium strains. E. faecalis ST40 strains harboured possible functional CRISPR-Cas systems, and still resistance and prophage sequences were generally well represented. Gene targets defined as the enterococcal mobilome, including plasmids, IS elements and transposons, resistance determinants, prophage sequences and CRISPR-Cas systems were highly prevalent, underlining their potential importance in the evolution of hospital associated STs. An association between axe-txe to the RepA_N-family and ω-ε-ζ to the Inc18-family, implicates the contribution of TA-systems in stable plasmid maintenance carrying virulence and resistance determinants in enterococci. The concurrent presence of defined MGE and their associated resistance markers was generally confirmed and illustrates the importance of horizontal gene transfer in the development of multidrug resistant enterococci.

Project description:The enterococci comprise a genus of 49 low-GC content Gram-positive commensal species within the Firmicutes phylum that are known to occupy diverse habitats, notably the gastrointestinal core microbiota of nearly every phylum, including human. Of particular clinical relevance are two rogue species of enterococci, Enterococcus faecalis and the distantly related Enterococcus faecium, standing among the nefarious multi-drug resistant and hospital-acquired pathogens. Despite increasing evidence for RNA-based regulation in the enterococci, including regulation of virulence factors, their transcriptome structure and arsenal of regulatory small sRNAs (sRNAs) are not thoroughly understood. Using dRNA-seq, we have mapped at single-nucleotide resolution the primary transcriptomes of E. faecalis V583 and E. faecium AUS0004. We identified 2517 and 2771 transcription start sites (TSS) in E. faecalis and E. faecium, respectively. Based on the identified TSS, we created a global map of s70 promoter motifs. We also revealed features of 5’ and 3’UTRs across the genomes. The transcriptome maps also predicted 150 and 128 sRNA candidates in E. faecalis and E. faecium, respectively, some of which have been identified in previous studies and many of which are new. Finally, we validated several of the predicted sRNAs by Northern Blot in biologically relevant conditions. Comprehensive TSS mapping of two representative strains will provide a valuable resource for the continued development of RNA biology in the Enterococci.

An association between axe-txe to the RepA_N-family and M-OM-^I-M-NM-5-M-NM-6 to the Inc18-family, implicates the contribution of TA-systems in stable plasmid maintenance carrying virulence and resistance determinants in enterococci. The concurrent presence of defined MGE and their associated resistance markers was generally confirmed and illustrates the importance of horizontal gene transfer in the development of multidrug resistant enterococci. All together 272 DNA targets representing mobile genetic elements and antimicrobial resistance determinants associated with enterococci were spotted on a CustomArray 4x2K microarray from CustomArray Inc. Each fourplex microarray slide contain four identical sectors that were stripped and re-hybridized up to six times. Each target was represented by 1-5 probes each. The total of 1250 probes were Tm balanced by altering their lenght between 35 and 40 nucleotides. Total DNA of 41 samples were hybridized and a control strain, the fully sequenced E. faecalis V585, was included in one of the four sectors on each slide in each set of hybridization to monitor the overall array and hybridization quality.

Project description:Teixobactin is the first novel antimicrobial to be discovered in decades and represents a new class of antimicrobials. Teixobactin shows great promise with proven efficacy against multi-drug resistant organisms such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE), and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. VRE infections are notoriously difficult to treat with complex and adaptable cell wall stress response systems, which confer intrinsic resistance to a wide variety of antimicrobials. The aim of this study was to isolate the teixobactin-induced transcriptional response by challenging lab strain Enterococcus faecalis JH2-2 with sub-MIC levels of teixobactin using RNA sequencing. Two cultures of E. faecalis were grown to an OD600 of 0.2 and subsequently split into three to form a total of six cultures (two samples, with three technical replicates each), and grown to an OD600 of 0.5. One set of three cultures were treated with 0.5 ug/ml (0.25 x MIC), and all six cultures were grown for a further 1h. Cells were harvested by centrifugation and stored at -80 degrees C. RNA was extracted using TRIzol-chloroform and RNA samples were run through the RNAeasy Minikit (Qiagen). The Agilent RNA 6000 Nano kit and the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (RIN >8), was used to verify RNA quality as per the manufacturer’s instructions, and RNA concentration was determined using a NanoDrop ND-100 spectrophotometer. Ribosomal RNA was removed from total RNA using Ribo-Zero and cDNA libraries were created using the Illumina TruSeq™ stranded total RNA library prep kit. Sequencing was completed using Illumina MiSeq_v3 generating 150 bp single end reads. Adapter sequences were removed from raw fastq files using Flexbar and reads shorter than 50bp were discarded. Sequence reads from each sample were mapped against the E. faecalis JH2-2 genome (NZ_KI518257.1) using Bowtie to produce a table of raw read counts for JH2-2 genes for each of the replicates. Statistical and principal component analysis were performed using the Bioconductor DESeq package.
