Project description:Biofilm formation is considered the most important factor involved in pathogenicity of Staphylococcus epidermidis.We investigated the role of two-component signal transduction system (TCS) srrAB, which was up-regulated under micro-aerobic condition, in the growth and biofilm formation of S. epidermidis.AsrrA-deficient mutant (∆srrA) derived from S. epidermidis1457 (SE1457), exhibited dramatic reduction in growth and biofilm formation underboth aerobic and micro-aerobic conditions, and more sensitive to several different types of antimicrobial agents, H2O2 and SDS. In New Zealand Rabbit model of S. epidermidis biofilm infection, ∆srrA hardly formed biofilm compared to that of SE1457. Phenotypic alteration was restored to the wide-type levelwhen srrAB were complemented into ∆srrA. Further study found that the initial adherence capacity and production of polysaccharide intercellular adhesion (PIA) in ∆srrA were decreased, while extracellular DNA (eDNA) was increased. Transcriptional Analysisby qRT-PCR demonstrated that expression level of icaRin ∆srrA was up-regulated compared to that of SE1457 under aerobic condition, while down-regulated under micro-aerobic condition;icaA and altE were down-regulated under both conditions. Expression of genes involved in respiratory metabolism, such as qoxB(quinol oxidase polypeptide II), ctaA(heme A synthase), and pfl(pyruvate formatelyase), etc. were down-regulated in ∆srrAunder both conditions. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) revealed that phosphorylated SrrA bound to the promoter regions of icaR, icaA, atlE, qoxB,ctaA, andpflB just like binding its own promoter region srr. Taken together, our results demonstrate that srrAB may provide a mechanistic link between respiratory metabolism, environmental signals, and regulation of biofilm formation in S. epidermidis.

Project description:Roothans et al., analyzed heterotrophic denitrification processes that can be an important source of nitrous oxide. We employed planktonic nitrification-inhibited denitrifying enrichment cultures under alternating oxic-anoxic conditions. The dynamic conditions resulted in a general presence of the denitrifying enzymes. Overall, we show that aerobic denitrification should not be neglected as an ecologically relevant process.

Project description:Beller, H. R., T. E. Letain, A. Chakicherla, S. R. Kane, T. C. Legler, and M. A. Coleman. 2006. Whole-genome transcriptional analysis of chemolithoautotrophic thiosulfate oxidation by Thiobacillus denitrificans under aerobic vs. denitrifying conditions. Journal of Bacteriology 188:7005-7015. Thiobacillus denitrificans is one of the few known obligate chemolithoautotrophic bacteria capable of energetically coupling thiosulfate oxidation to denitrification as well as aerobic respiration. As very little is known about the differential expression of genes associated with key chemolithoautotrophic functions (such as sulfur-compound oxidation and CO2 fixation) under aerobic versus denitrifying conditions, we conducted whole-genome, cDNA microarray studies to explore this topic systematically. The microarrays identified 277 genes (approximately ten percent of the genome) as differentially expressed using Robust Multi-array Average statistical analysis and a 2-fold cutoff. Genes upregulated (ca. 6- to 150-fold) under aerobic conditions included a cluster of genes associated with iron acquisition (e.g., siderophore-related genes), a cluster of cytochrome cbb3 oxidase genes, cbbL and cbbS (encoding the large and small subunits of form I ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, or RubisCO), and multiple molecular chaperone genes. Genes upregulated (ca. 4- to 95-fold) under denitrifying conditions included nar, nir, and nor genes (associated respectively with nitrate reductase, nitrite reductase, and nitric oxide reductase, which catalyze successive steps of denitrification), cbbM (encoding form II RubisCO), and genes involved with sulfur-compound oxidation (including two physically separated but highly similar copies of sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase and of dsrC, associated with dissimilatory sulfite reductase). Among genes associated with denitrification, relative expression levels (i.e., degree of upregulation with nitrate) tended to decrease in the order nar > nir > nor > nos. Reverse transcription, quantitative PCR analysis was used to validate these trends. Keywords: bacterial metabolism
