Project description:Phages that infect synthetic soil community members

Project description:Virulent bacteriophages (or phages) are viruses that specifically infect and lyse a bacterial host. When multiple phages co-infect a bacterial host, the extent of lysis, dynamics of bacteria-phage and phage-phage interactions are expected to vary. The objective of this study is to identify the factors influencing the interaction of two virulent phages with different Pseudomonas aeruginosa growth states (planktonic, an infected epithelial cell line, and biofilm) by measuring the bacterial time-kill and individual phage replication kinetics. A single administration of phages effectively reduced P. aeruginosa viability in planktonic conditions and infected human lung cell cultures, but phage-resistant variants subsequently emerged. In static biofilms, the phage combination displayed initial inhibition of biofilm dispersal, but sustained control was achieved only by combining phages and meropenem antibiotic. In contrast, adherent biofilms showed tolerance to phage and/or meropenem, suggesting a spatiotemporal variation in the phage-bacterial interaction. The kinetics of adsorption of each phage to P. aeruginosa during single- or co-administration were comparable. However, the phage with the shorter lysis time depleted bacterial resources early and selected a specific nucleotide polymorphism that conferred a competitive disadvantage and cross-resistance to the second phage. The extent and strength of this phage-phage competition and genetic loci conferring phage resistance, are, however, P. aeruginosa genotype dependent. Nevertheless, adding phages sequentially resulted in their unimpeded replication with no significant increase in bacterial host lysis. These results highlight the interrelatedness of phage-phage competition, phage resistance and specific bacterial growth state (planktonic/biofilm) in shaping the interplay among P. aeruginosa and virulent phages.

Project description:The present work describes LC-ESI-MS/MS analyses of tryptic digestion peptides from phages that infect Staphylococcus aureus-causing mastitis, and isolated from dairy products. A total of 1935 non-redundant peptides belonging to 1282 proteins were identified and analyzed. Among them, 80 staphylococcal peptides from phages were confirmed. These peptides belong to proteins such as phage repressors, structural phage proteins, uncharacterized phage proteins and complement inhibitors. Moreover, of the phage origin peptides found, eighteen of them were specific to S. aureus strains. These diagnostic peptides could be useful for the identification and characterization of S. aureus strains that cause mastitis. Furthermore, a study of bacteriophage phylogeny and the relationship among the identified phage peptides and the bacteria they infect was also performed. The results show the specific peptides which are present in closely related phages, and the existing links between bacteriophage phylogeny and the respective Staphylococcus spp. infected.

Project description:By entering a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity, dormant microorganisms are able to contend with suboptimal conditions that would otherwise reduce their fitness. In addition, certain types of dormancy like sporulation, can serve as a refuge from parasitic infections. Phages are unable to attach to spores, but their genomes can be entrapped in the resting structures and are able to resume infection upon host germination. Thus, dormancy has the potential to affect both the reproductive and survival components of phage fitness. Here, we characterized the distribution and diversity of sigma factors in nearly 3,500 phage genomes. Homologs of bacterial sigma factors that are responsible for directing transcription during sporulation were preferentially recovered in phages that infect spore-forming hosts. While non-essential for lytic infection, when expressed in Bacillus subtilis, we demonstrate that phage-encoded sigma factors activated sporulation gene networks and reduced spore yield. Our findings suggest that the acquisition of host-like transcriptional regulators may allow phages to manipulate the expression of complex traits, like the transitions involved in bacterial dormancy.

Project description:Cyclic oligonucleotide-based antiviral signaling systems (CBASS) are bacterial anti-phage defense operons that use nucleotide signals to control immune activation. Here we biochemically screen 57 diverse E. coli and Bacillus phages for the ability to disrupt CBASS immunity and discover anti-CBASS 4 (Acb4) from the Bacillus phage SPO1 as the founding member of a large family of >1,300 immune evasion proteins. A 2.1 Å crystal structure of Acb4 in complex with 3′3′-cGAMP reveals a tetrameric assembly that functions as a sponge to sequester CBASS signals and inhibit immune activation. We demonstrate Acb4 alone is sufficient to disrupt CBASS activation in vitro and enable immune evasion in vivo. Analyzing phages that infect diverse bacteria, we explain how Acb4 selectively targets nucleotide signals in host defense and avoids disruption of cellular homeostasis. Together, our results reveal principles of immune evasion protein evolution and explain a major mechanism phages use to inhibit host immunity.
