Project description:We investigated the gene expression changed in the NCM3722 wild-type and gcvB deletion strains grown in glucose minimal medium, aiming to find novel target genes controlled by small RNA GcvB. In total, five differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by Illumina sequencing using a cutoff with fold change>2 and q-value<0.01. Following physiological and molecular studies identified that the physiological roles of GcvB were beyond amino acids transportation and it regulates oxdative stress response of Escherichia coli through its control of OxyR.

Project description:The bacterium Zymomonas mobilis is widely studied for its potential as an industrial biofuel producer. Anoxic fermentation by Z. mobilis in lignocellulosic hydrolysate can generate bioethanol from renewable plant biomass. In this study, we deleted a gene from the Z. mobilis genome encoding a homolog of OxyR, a transcription factor that activates an oxidative stress response in bacteria to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS). Deletion of this transcription factor inhibited growth of Z. mobilis in oxic, but not anoxic, conditions in laboratory media. RNA-Sequencing was perfromed on wild-type Z. mobilis (ZM4) and ∆oxyR in both oxic and anoxic conditions in rich media (ZRMG). This study reveals the indirect regulon of OxyR in Z. mobilis, which is important for both oxic growth and anoxic biofuel fermentation.

Project description:Oxidative stress caused by exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS), is a major challenge for aerobic and especially anaerobic organisms. Bacteria coordinate the response to oxidative stress through the LysR-type transcriptional regulator (LTTR) OxyR. Extensive studies have focused on the classical Escherichia coli system to shed light on the mode of action of defensive weapons against oxidative stress. The underlying mechanism is mediated via the formation of redox-dependent disulfide bond between two conserved cysteines of OxyR, thus activating transcription of members of the OxyR regulon. However, only fragmentary information on the regulation and function of OxyR has been gleaned through genetic and biochemical analyses in the important opportunistic pathogen P. aeruginosa. In this report, we used a comprehensive transcriptional profiling analysis to delineate the OxyR regulon under three conditions (KingM-bM-^@M-^Ys A medium [Pseudomonas medium or PM], Luria Broth (LB), and LB when oxyR is overexpressed), to investigate its roles in different cellular aspects that are independent of the classical oxidative stress response. Interestingly, when grown in LB, OxyR was found to regulating many genes involved in the process of inter-cellular communication known as quorum sensing (QS). In contrast, when grown in PM, OxyR regulate the expression of a newly identified CSS (cell-surface signaling) system in an OxyR-dependent fashion. In addition, the results from oxyR overexpression further confirmed that OxyR was linked to regulation of QS and Type 3 Secretion (T3SS) in addition to the regulation of antioxidative genes. Taken together, our results show that, apart from its dominant role in defense against oxidative stress in P. aeruginosa, OxyR acts as a global regulator that provides a link between the regulation of oxidative stress response, QS and virulence. 15 samples, representing 5 different biological conditions, including 3 biological replicates for each condition

Project description:Oxidative stress that originates from reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an inevitable consequence of aerobic respiration in bacteria. Three transcription factors (TFs), OxyR, SoxR, and SoxS play a critical role in transcriptional regulation of the defense system. However, the full genome-wide regulatory potential of them remains elusive. Here, we comprehensively reconstruct genome-wide OxyR, SoxR, and SoxS transcriptional regulatory networks in Escherichia coli under oxidative stress. Integrative data analysis reveals that OxyR, SoxR, and SoxS regulons are comprised of 38 genes in 28 transcription units (TUs), 11 genes in 10 TUs, and 34 genes in 25 TUs, respectively, significantly expanding the current knowledge of their regulatory networks. Comparison of them to other stress-response regulatory networks highlights minimal overlap between their regulons, indicating that E. coli has a series of relatively distinct stress responses covering the range of different stresses. We also demonstrate that these intricate networks coordinate detoxification process with DNA and protein damage repair, cell wall synthesis, divalent metal ion homeostasis, as well as metabolic robustness to produce overall response of E. coli to oxidative stress. A total of six samples were analyzed. oxyR-8myc, soxR-8myc, and soxS-8myc tagged cells were cultured in M9 minimal media with 0.2% glucose. Then cells were treated with 250 uM of paraquat at mid-log pahse for 20 min with agitation.

Project description:Most bacteria are capable of living and surviving under a wide range of conditions, including exposures to chemical and physical stressors. A key to survival under adverse conditions is their ability to induce specific stress response systems that mitigate harmful effects. Examples are the well-studied SOS system induced under replication stress caused by DNA damage, and the OxyR response induced by oxidative stress (e.g., hydroxyl radicals). In the present study we have investigated interactions between these two systems under the assumption that harmful conditions may generally induce more than one bacterial response, and in such a case their combined effect might feature additional factors critical for survival. We used Escherichia coli strains that were constitutively induced for the SOS system (using the recA730 allele) in combination with the OxyR oxidative response (using the oxyR2c allele). The main finding was that joint expression of these systems strongly diminished the mutator effect associated with SOS induction. This so-called SOS mutator effect is due to the error-prone DNA polymerase Pol V (product of the umuDC operon, UmuD′2UmuC), which is derepressed upon SOS induction. Gene expression studies revealed an overall reduction of genes of the SOS regulon in the double mutant, with a largest reduction for the genes of the umuDC operon. In parallel, Western blots showed the UmuD and UmuD′ proteins to be severely depleted from extracts of such strains. The data suggest an additional layer of control of SOS mutagenesis under certain stress conditions.
